SECULAR RITES

Facilitated by Andrew Batt-Rawden

We participate in the exchange of elements, atoms, molecules, energy, emotion and information through the Air. The Air carries our exhalations, which are in turn inhaled by other living beings, including other species and humans. The Air moves freely around the globe, creating a cellular exchange which is directed by heat provided by a star. Air density fluctuates with vibrations which we produce with our bodies for the exchange of information between members of our own species, as well as with members of other species. In this Secular Rite we witness composition as conduit between the cornerstones of our existence; the sun, the earth, the atmosphere, each other, ourselves.
