Central Principles - SoulFire 4 the eARTh

SoulFire 4 the eARTh is doing the ceremonial support WErk to help the heART of humanity to heal, one fire at a thyme:

SoulFire Sanctuary is a ceremonial dance grounds and home to the 18th Peace Chamber, and is a place where the Art of Collaboration is held as a core prACTice + principle.

SoulFire 4 the eARTh circles are “Gardens of the Groove” that we tend to. Here we learn to listen and play in ways that feed our soul, grow our personal + collective relationship with the spirit of life, thru the expression of music, creativity and balance.

Gardens of the Groove are Circles of Trance Formation that remind us that when we WErk together – our musical, rhythmic, movement + artistic collaborations, become catalyzing experiences that opens us to Our Personal Presence, Feelings of Common Unity + Our Collective Capacity.

SoulFire 4 the eARTh is all about walking together - through the direct pARTicipation of Mystical Co-Created Experiences WE support personal, collective + planetary harmonic entrainment by praiSING life. As WE Rise like the Phoenix and we find ways to Blossom in Harmony.

The Soul is fed by non-linear experiences.
The Soul is nourished with feeling secure + safe.
The Soul Thrives, when KINnected to the eARTh + in ACTive Relationship with other PLU’s thru nature, sound, rhythm, movement, art + prayer.
Every Body wants to feel good…
Every Soul, Like Every -Body- wants to be Fed, Nourished, Valued + Appreciated.
Every Soul wants to Be Seen, Invited to Express + Be Listened to
Every Soul wants to Feel Love, Be Loved + Be Loving.

There is magic present when we entrain with nature, the elements, rhythm of the drum, music, metaphors and movement (individually and collectively)

Sharing with others helps us shine

Give Away all that you can, trUSt that more will come your way.
We are here to help each other
We are stronger together – we, humans, are social critters, + most of us (modern ones) did not have spiritual + cultural support to learn how to be in harmony with the eARTh.
SoulFire Circles + SoulFire Sanctuary are ways and spaces to figure that out, personally + collectively.

We do our best to live in a good + respectful way

Thyme is Precious - Play Often
Every Body is capable of PolyRhythm, Movement, Song + Making Art is a pART of Living Well with others. …for any + all who are physically, emotionally or spiritually unable, we dedicate pART of our practice to the reSOULutions of that which is wounded to become well.

when folks forget + don’t act like peace matters:
we become IMPs-to bless their heARTs + Minds!

Trinity Principles

Body + Mind + Spirit
Original Trinity of the Drum – Babatunde Olatunji
Drum = Tree + Animal + Human
When the human honors the tree and the animal - this ACTIvates the spirit. When the drummer brings an intention to their playing, the rhythms are imbued with an elevated positive influence - thru kind listening + harmonious expressions – Magic naturally emerges
Sound Influences Everything - when we play on purpose, we positively influence our personal and our collective reality + capacity
Magic is a collaboration of seen and unseen forces
Magic = Drum + Player + Intention
Big Magic = Harmonized Drums + Choreographed Dance + Common Intention expressed with Song/Chanting

Circle Principles

We are more powerful together….
…. and there are thymes to step away.

Maps, Agreements, Ethics, Accountability + The Ability to Respond
There are natural “On-Ramps” into music, metaphors + movement circles
There are natural “Landing Zones” when we co-create a Ceremonial Space (called SoulFire Circles)
There are natural “Off-Ramps” to rest, dream and ACTualize
How willing we are to show up + pARTicipate informs our personal + collective experience
How we Drum, Dance, Sing, informs our personal + collective experience
HOW we play is -more than what we play.

When the conditions are co-created + cared for conscioUSly…. Trance Formation Occurs.
