Hi Loves.

A quick update…
DATE: I’m changing the date to Sunday as there is a big festival in muizenberg that the whole muizenberg community is involved in.. The Muizenberg community is so lovely- i would like to make is easy for them to attend. Also our host would very much like to be there. I apologise if this messes with anyone’s arrangements! And this way the earth dance people may be more inclined to join us if they’ve had their fill of earth dancing by Sunday.

OFFERINGS: One or two have offered to do some activities (children’s activities,  a talk, some music and a dance) but i don’t have more than that confirmed… so if you would like to help us co-create this, please let me know.. it can be very informal and playful too if you have a fun idea up your sleeve. Will send out a proper activities list on Wednesday.

MEALS: Bring and share enough for Lunch and left overs for Supper if you are staying. If you plan to eat please be sure to contribute food to the feast!!
Raw/ vegan/ vegetarian please :-)

Love Annwen

Time :Saturday, September 24 · 9:00am – 9:00pm
Location: Awakenings (Dale Simpson’s house). 26 upper towers rd, muizenberg, cape town.
Please park in Albert road to avoid blocking Upper Towers- you’ll see what I mean…

Dear Heart’s Tribe

It has been so delightful to be sharing the turning of the seasons with you. Winter solstice was magical at the blue hippo in Greyton. There is something so fine, so tender and precious and at the same time, deeply nourishing and grounding that comes about when we have the courage to drop our armouring and connect with one another from a space of authenticity, vulnerability- a space of love.

This month we do so within the greater context of Spring and all the subtle energy of New-ness that it brings.

The story of Space of Love Magazine may seem as amazing as increadible. In the beginning of 2008 I returned back to Russia from New Zealand, and in April 2008 I visited dolmens and Shetinin’s school in Gelendzhik region. I spent 5 unforgettable days near dolmens and there, at dolmens I got an idea to start a magazine with the purpose to spread information about Space of Love and to inspire people from all over the world to co-create their Spaces of Loves. A bit earlier, a year ago, in 2007, when I still was in New Zealand I got to know Dr.Regina B.jensen from US, whom I organized a private tour to dolmens and Shetinin’s school. So I suggested her to work together and she agreed! In September 2008, together with our wonderful editor Dr. Regina B.Jensen we published our first SOL issue. For now, by July 2011, we have 10 published issues (hard copies and online).

Just like a Fairy… A beautiful modern-days fairy-tale!

http://www.spaceoflovemagazine.com/article_2_4.htm

On the morning before our departure from the eco village, I spent a few minutes reflecting by the river, I wanted to write my thoughts down in my journal but first I had to begin by writing the date. The Date… I thought, what’s the date? What day is it today? What’s the time? What month is it? May? April? My field, unlike Goethe, is not time but I like to keep in check just so I know when my birthday is… I laughed at myself and thought that this place is a miraculous place, where I can do without time, I can let the day go ahead as it pleases and rest my head when the sun has set, when the sun is up – I get up. It’s so easy to concentrate on time and using as much of it as “wisely” as possible in out “progressive lives” in big cities like Jo’burg. I somehow got around to finding out the time and date after tormenting my little brain for the answer. Saying goodbye to the eco village was like leaving a newfound home, I have dreams of living in Umphakatsi for a little while, so I’m working towards being there for whole month of the Rainbow Gathering and to learn more about a sustainable way of living.
