keir's drum circle

well, last night was too amazing to not document here. i'm still in the preparation phase of my journey, collecting books to bring with me, and talking about it constantly..i actually bought a new digital camera, so small and perfect for travel, and i am definitely planning on using it A LOT and posting my trip's pics here.

about last night, my brother set the stage for some really powerful transformation in placerville.
saturday night's at 7pm he's hosting a drum circle at sacred paths yoga studio on canal street. he did such an amazing job of holding the energy, people felt so intoxicated by the vibe in the room, the lightening was all-natural fire, and placed directly in the circle, everyone's face was orange and gold in shadow as they pounded away everyone in synch with the inner-pulsing we all hold within, so magical.

it was so spontaneous. it happened so naturally. someone picks up something, throws it into the pot, and it changes the room, every one adjusts. no one held on to "their" rhythm..it's was the support and listening i found so inspiring, how every one was so eager to keep the ball passing around, not letting it drop.

afterwards, in the closing circle, hands clasped and eyes sparkling, on some kind man's advice, we chanted:

"spiraling into the center. the center of the wheel.
spiraling into the center. the center of the wheel.
i am the weaver. i am the woven one. i am the weaver i am the weave.
i am the weaver. i am the woven one. i am the weaver i am the weave.
i am the dreamer. i am the chosen one. i am the dreamer i am the dream.
i am the dreamer. i am the chosen one. i am the dreamer i am the dream."



the energy today is building. there are things happening all around me which point to positive change for the world. people i meet, communities gathering.

this is what the new world looks like.
