Buffalo Hill Eco Village
Kins´ Domain Community possibility in South Africa!!
Dearest Kin,
Please read below the exciting opportunity for another Kins´Domain eco-village in South Africa! Hans is a property developer who read the Ringing Cedars books when he was in Holland, and has been looking for land since to help develop a Kins´domain eco-village inspired by Anastasia.. wow!!
He has found a piece between P.E and Jeffreys bay.
The site is over 600 ha, and can house around 50 families.
The rest of the land is applicable for a nature reserve. It has a beautiful view of the sea coast and on the other side to the baviaans Mountains.
There is game on the land and the idea was for an Eco Village, but also for Eco Tourism which can accumulate income and be used for the settlers.
His ideas are shared below, and really worth reading :-)
Whoever is interested, please contact Hans: hans@kingshomeinspection.co.za Read the rest of this entry »
…oops. here are the dates and venue for the day gathering :-)
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…
♥Space of Love Spring Equinox Day Gathering♥
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.

Our New Earth Vision
Our New Earth (O.N.E.) Vision- http://www.one-vision.us
ONE Vision is a global endeavour that is both radically idealistic and absolutely practical.
It begins with a simple, yet unprecedented petition. The petition is not “anti” anything- it is PRO global systemic transformation.
Essentially the ONE Vision petition aims to gather and expose the critical mass of people who can no longer remain silent and complicit to the fact that our democracy and our growing environmental concerns have been completely subjugated by the globalising corporate profit agenda. Moreover, supporters of ONE Vision, are willing to collectively step into the political arena to fundamentally change it. Yes, we can.
ONE Vision is a vessel designed to carry our unified political voice for us to boldly reclaim our political sovereignty and actively re-direct our international institutions of governance, finance, economy, education and social welfare towards serving Earth Restoration and building a just, empathic and thriving human culture.
To read and sign the ONE Vision petition- and to find out more about the vision and ACTION beyond the petition- you are warmly invited to visit us at: www.one-vision.usNot to put you on the spot or anything, but :-) …You are among the first people to hear about Our New Earth Vision, the petition and the website. So in many ways you are now officially key co-creators (apologies if it’s an imposition…;-) You’re choices and participation vis a vis ONE Vision will have a direct effect on its dissemination and unfolding. Absolutely no pressure and no attachment to outcome- I just thought I should let you know. It’s all good!If, for some reason, you are not interested in signing the petition, then we would love to hear your concerns to see if they can be addressed and/or integrated. “No, because…” is always better that no response at all.Nevertheless, if you think it is worth a try or even inspiring, then you might wish to consider reading the websiteand supporting ONE Vision more actively.
The most valuable and supportive action for ONE Vision- at this stage- is to let as many people as possible know that they have a vote that could radically transform the world’s corporate-political domain and thus the future of our Earth and our children.As it happens I’m currently sitting with a laptop, surrounded by a Rasta culture who are ALL very interested in ONE Vision.No problem collecting signatures here ;-) Wake up. Stand up. Vote for your rights! With love and gratitude,Yanwww.one-vision.us

“Humanity has finally reached the crux of an evolutionary crossroads -an extensive and escalating conflict of interest between the growing populace of awakening humans and our established governing and economic structures.” (From ONE Vision)

The story of Space of Love Magazine!
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).

Celebrate All-Earth Day
Beloveds, 23 July 2011 is all-earth day, a holiday designated by Anastasia of the ringing Cedar Series as a day for gardening, planting and connecting lovingly and consciously with the earth.
You can celebrate this day in wonder where ever you are by initiating deep connection with the earth: working lovingly with plants, planting trees, food forests and gardens, giving thanks, creating ritual and ceremony and playfully educating others.
Imagine the huge boost to mother earth when thousands (or millions and billions) of trees, vegetables and gardens are planted all over the world with such glorious and loving devotion and attention! Imagine how this will enrich our neighborhoods and lives and offset all the destruction, pollution and unpleasant vibrations. This is how we begin to co-create a world we actually want to live in!
Mother earth is a conscious being who feels our every touch. When many hands touch the body of earth with love, she feels it, and these vibrations greatly assist her in her path of ascension, and creates more harmony in our own lives (to find out more read the ringing cedar books).
All-earth day is an opportunity to offer deep gratitude and love to mother earth and to become a conscious co-creator with all life…
What you can do to magically and deliciously celebrate all-earth day :
- plant trees (or even better a food forest or edible landscape) and host tree planting ceremonies– make this a joyful, playful and celebratory affair!
choose trees or plants that will add grace and joy to the environment: fruit trees, indigenous trees, berry bushes- do so consciously and with deep love and gratitude for all the forces of creation that sustain life (god, angels, elementals, beloved mother earth)
- renew this connection daily
- You are creating a network of light – you are not just planting a tree, you are becoming a co-creator with all life.
- create a veggie garden/edible landscape or work in an existing one doing so again with a consciousness of supreme love and gratitude.
- get a group of friends together to watch an environmental movie – have a brainstorming session afterwards to see what action it can inspire.
- go to a sacred space in nature and do a ritual of thanksgiving – singing songs, prayers, offerings of love, hugging trees, really feeling into the earth and elemental consciousness
- Speak to the earth mother, tell her you love her, you are sorry for any actions that were less than loving, and ask for her foregiveness
- make a commitment to yourself to connect with the earth in a conscious way more often, to garden, to care for your trees, to share your understanding with others
have an electricity free day. See how cosy your evening can be by fire or candle light, make up stories in the evening, sing songs, share or create poetry –endeavor for this to inspire you to continue to live your life more magically, consciously and joyously. - Make a donation towards organisation that plant trees or rehabilitate forests
Please forward and share this information with others…imagine all the blessings and grace this will bring to your life, the planet and all who live on her. x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
Please email us with stories, songs and poems from your all-earth day celebrations – we will publish them on our website! Email ahrian@spaceoflove.co.za.

My Eco Village Experience part 2
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.
