Phoenix

Phoenix_love_by_punkisstillcool

Consciousness arises from a broken heart

beating the heartbeat drum

onward and upward I will fly

on the gossamer wings of spirit

into the sun

into the sun

christ consciousness

bursting through and into

washing away fear

the enemy of love

 

I have made more space now

room to breathe

room to spread my wings

the cacoon falls away

no longer needed I say goodbye

goodbye to Mama's voice telling me I can't

I fly to brighter skys

eyes of spirit adjusting

pupils open further

I know that I am worth it

 

I hold my inner child

enfold her in my arms

I am my own Mama

a good and loving one

I allow her grief

and help her let it go

so she can dance and sing

in the light of day

in the bright of play

 

a new era springs forth

bubbling up from the depths

bursting forth alive and renewed

alive to the morning dew

you are me and I am you

whole once again

like I never was before

alive she cried

I am a phoenix rising

onward and upward

riding the sacred spiral

on the dawn of a new day

 

Phoenix love by ~punkisstillcool

How do your skills align? Below are some of the tasks that need your special attention, without you it just won’t be the same. Take a look and see where you can best apply yourself to make this gathering work. • Volunteer Coordinator: The “unseen hand” that helps people hook up with jobs needing to be done. • Firewood Czar: Organize woodcutting parties while looking all butch with a chainsaw. • Firetenders: Help with firewood and keep our tribal fires burning. • Cook: Sign up with a friend to cook a meal. Nourish your kin and make their tummies happy. There will be a sign up sheet on the door of the barn for topping/cooking meals. Sign up and check in with the Kitchen Queen! • Dishwasher: Dishwashers eat first, and are considered especially desirable as sexual partners. • Ritual Planning: Help hold the container and guide the energy for our personal and communal magic. • Shitter Patrol: Keep our trusty shitters clean and well-stocked.

If you require certain types of food, a good way to get your needs met is to help plan menus and sign up to cook. SPECIAL NEEDS We have very limited indoor space reserved for those with SERIOUS health concerns or disabilities. These spaces are for those who would otherwise be unable to participate in the gathering. If you are able-bodied, please Camp It Up Honey! Garden House is for community use, NOT individual lodging. Garden House kitchen is for special needs only. Cabins on the land are personal residences. Check in with who lives there before entering. You wouldn’t want someone walking into your room uninvited! To reserve special needs space for the gathering, please contact the sanctuary (503-866-2678 deputydallas@gmail.com). Let us know what your special needs are and how we can help you meet them. DOGS Pet owners are HIGHLY ENCOURAGED TO MAKE OTHER ARRANGEMENTS FOR THEIR ANIMAL COMPANIONS. Dogs roaming free cause problems for the gathering. No matter how lovely and well-behaved your dog may be, a pack of uncontrolled dogs on the land tends to bark, fight, poop, and sometimes bite. They chase away the wildlife and let’s be real, Mary doesn’t always like to share her space with other canines. For the comfort and safety of all, we ask: PLEASE DO NOT BRING YOUR DOG TO THE GATHERING. Thank you for respecting these requests! TRASH There is no dumpster or trash service on the Land. We are responsible for taking out any trash we generate. We have left behind a lot of garbage on the land during gatherings in the past. Our goal for this gathering is ZERO TRASH FOOTPRINT. Please be responsible for everything you bring to the Sanctuary. If you pack it in, pack it out. Please leave your camping space and our whole Sanctuary in a better condition than you found it. If you have room, please load up some recycling or trash when you leave. REGISTRATION By registering today, you can make the whole Gathering run a little smoother. Please email us your registration form, or better yet, print it out and send it with a check!!! Giving to the Sanctuary is a powerful act of abundance magic. Thank you for your generosity, which strengthens this community and the magic that we share. The suggested donation is $35 per person per day with that though comes one of the founding principles of the Sanctuary: NOTAFLOF, No One Turned Away For Lack Of Funds.

Charlie Chaplin final speech in The Great Dictator

Charlie Chaplin final speech in The Great Dictator

Schulz: Speak - it is our only hope.

 

The Jewish Barber (Charlie Chaplin's character): Hope... I'm sorry but I don't want to be an Emperor - that's not my business - I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone if possible, Jew, gentile, black man, white. We all want to help one another, human beings are like that.

We all want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone and the earth is rich and can provide for everyone.

The way of life can be free and beautiful.

But we have lost the way.

Greed has poisoned men's souls - has barricaded the world with hate; has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed.

We have developed speed but we have shut ourselves in: machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical, our cleverness hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little: More than machinery we need humanity; More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.

The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men, cries out for universal brotherhood for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world, millions of despairing men, women and little children, victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people. To those who can hear me I say "Do not despair".

The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress: the hate of men will pass and dictators die and the power they took from the people, will return to the people and so long as men die [now] liberty will never perish...

Soldiers - don't give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you and enslave you - who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think and what to feel, who drill you, diet you, treat you as cattle, as cannon fodder.

Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men, machine men, with machine minds and machine hearts. You are not machines. You are not cattle. You are men. You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don't hate - only the unloved hate. Only the unloved and the unnatural. Soldiers - don't fight for slavery, fight for liberty.

In the seventeenth chapter of Saint Luke it is written " the kingdom of God is within man " - not one man, nor a group of men - but in all men - in you, the people.

You the people have the power, the power to create machines, the power to create happiness. You the people have the power to make life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure. Then in the name of democracy let's use that power - let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give men a chance to work, that will give you the future and old age and security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power, but they lie. They do not fulfil their promise, they never will. Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people. Now let us fight to fulfil that promise. Let us fight to free the world, to do away with national barriers, do away with greed, with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness.
