[Shazbeith]

Hi all,

Please contact me off list at silverb...@gmail.com if you would
like to participate.

From ADF Announce: The next ADF Unity Rite will be taking place at
8:00 pm (2000)
Pacific Daylight Time (11:00 pm Eastern Daylight Time) on Saturday,
May 10, 2008 at the Desert Magic Festival in Tucson, AZ, USA.

We invite all ADF members to hold their own unity rites individually
or collectively at that time, if they wish. The magic is strongest
when we all do things together.

(8pm PDT is the same as 4am - 0400 Sunday morning in the UK, 5am -
0500 Sunday morning in the Czech Republic, 12 noon - 1200 Sunday in
Japan, and 1pm - 1300 on Sunday afternoon in Melbourne, Australia).

Bright unity blessings,

Rev. Kirk Thomas

oh, and if I might point out... that would make it 3pm - 1500 Sunday
in New Zealand

We'll be thinking about you Grail :)

Huh, don't think this reply went through!:

Thanks for the thought Shazbeith!

I've been looking up the Unity ritual on the site, as I didn't know
anything about it.

It looks like it's mostly grove ritual oriented so far, no suggested
solitary ritual, so I'm thinking I'll do a two powers meditation -
with slight variation?

I noticed it was used for forming group-mind, so I was going to try is
as a 'distance' group-mind exercise.
Once I'm good and tree-like ;), I'll also be thinking of you guys in
Melbourne as a grove of trees (hope you don't mind!), and all the
members and groves around the world as a network of trees forming a
single forest, spread out over the world.
Then I'll ring a bell to recognise each of the groves/protogroves
(Man, 63?! I'll be ringing the bell so I don't wear out my
voice. ;) ).
Think that'll be ok?
If there's anything in particular you're doing, I could try and do it
about the same time.
:)

Have a good Sunday!

Cheers,

Grail.

Hi Grail,

as we only found out last minute, I am planning to adapt the Unity
ritual outline from the ADF web site.

http://www.adf.org/members/groves/docs/general/

For those who are curious and are unable to access the link, it is
from the ADF members part of the web site.

We will be reading out the names of all of the other Groves and
Protogroves from oldest to newest.
We will also read out your name at that time and some of our other
Australian members who wont be able to be with us.

Hope this is ok?

I found a page about it here:
