Collective Workshops and
Chanting Circle

Come enjoy the FireDance
community and find another home in the Bay Area for
your heart songs, your dance, your poetry, your
music. You do not have to be a good singer. You do
not have to know a
single chant. Just bring your enthusiasm and your spark. The
Bay Area Spark
Collective is a new flame, kindled from embers carried home from
fire circles around the country
─ an intentional
community group that meets monthly to celebrate spirit, community,
and each other. Workshops begin at 1:00
pm. Pot luck
supper begins at 4:00 pm. The sacred circle opens the doors at
6:30 pm. Participants introduce themselves and share their
magic; the four directions are called in; a chant is sung; and a
sacred play begins. From here on out, anything can happen:
drumming, a song, a poem, dancing,
magic, drawing, writing, massage, deep trance. As participants take their turns
around the circle, they stir the container and mix in their magic to create a
synergistic miracle in the space. Everyone listens to what the moment needs. Around 9:30 pm the energy of the circle rises to a fever pitch and then sweetly
winds down. The circle is closed with a chant, an "Om," that releases the four
directions
─ and plenty of hugs.

Wellstone Democratic
Renewal Club
Monthly Meeting
Presented by
Jack
Kurzweil
510-549-2696
This is the monthly meeting of
the Wellstone Democratic Renewal Club (WDRC). The Club
works to renew and reform the
Democratic Party. The evening
begins with a social hour and delicious pot luck supper at 6:00 pm
--
bring your favorite healthy dish to share!At 7:00 pm the Club begins
its program
and all guests of the evening, members and non-members alike, are invited to participate in the discussions.
This evening's program
includes three legislators from the
State of California legislature in Sacramento.
California's Assemblymembers
Nancy Skinner and
Sandre Swanson
and Senator Loni Hancock
will talk on overturning the California legislative 2/3 rule
and the ballot initiatives for California's special
election, May 19. The structurally dysfunctional
budget process of the State of California cannot continue.
It has failed the people of California. Year after
year the California budget process has been delayed and
distorted due to the constitutionally required 2/3 vote to
pass the budget. The result has been deep and damaging
cuts to education and social safety services, a weakening of
labor and environmental laws, additional borrowing, and the
placement of constitutional amendments on the state ballot
that have nothing to do with the budget. This process
has led California on a downward spiral of inadequate
education, decaying infrastructure, and loss of public
confidence in California. A new bill, SCA 5, would
bring accountability, efficiency, and democracy back to the
budget process by changing the 2/3 requirement for passing
the Budget Bill to a simple majority.
This evening's seminar
focuses on self-discovery.
The Master Motivator,
Rabboni Selah,
specializes in training techniques in self-motivation and
stress management. Rabboni teaches principles of
self-mastery:
mastery of the life in which one lives and mastery of the
universe to which all things belong. Books and tapes by
Rabboni Selah, produced by
Master Concepts Unlimited,
have inspired thousands across America, helping them to
understand their birthright to achieve health and longevity,
fullness of life, freedom of spirit, and prosperity.
Rabboni's teachings have a humanistic orientation;
there is no appealing to supernatural forces for solving our
problems for us
─
we can do it ourselves, we are capable ourselves.
