September 11 Day of Unity Ritual

Three times the wheel of the year has turned since America was attacked by terrortists. Three times the snows have fallen, and three times the flowers have bloomed. Three is a significant number, for it is the number of unity -the result of the union between the male and female forces. It is a healing number, combining biody, mind, and, of course, spirit.
As we observe the third anniversary of this day, we can unite and complete the healing process. A tragedy of this magnitude should never be forgotten. But, it is now history and history can never be undone. Let us focus our healing energies on opreventing a tragedy like this from occurring again. The key lies in affirming that we stand united in confronting prejudice and hatred. To do so, join me in performing this Unity Ritual.

On your altar, light on tall blue candle. From this ritual candle flame, light seven white votive candles, representing the world's continents. Stand before them and say:

"Together we may be different, but as one we are united.
Together we celebrate our differences for they make us special and unique.
Never again will our differences create fear, prejudice, or hatred."

Take time to meditate as the candles burn down.

Elexina, I just seen this post. This really sounds interesting.

Elexina, what a beautiful ritual.
I have missed you, what happened to TSH? I've been so busy with the move I didn't know how to find you guys!

Hello, Aleia. I don't know what happened to TSH, it has been unavailable for some time. But feel free to e-mail me any time.

Elexina, I've missed you. I lost your email address along the way, and then I remembered this board. Since TSH is gone, I hope that we'll still be able to make this one happening. Good to see you, BB ~ Aleia

Aleia, I've been out of touch with all my boards for months. But if you're still checking in: my e-mail address is posted in my profile.
BB.
