GATHERING INVITATION MESSAGE
Please forward the following message

out further. (its the invitation message)
Dear One,
From
the Land of Yarrabah in Far North Queensland, Australia, we share with
you the calling to be part of the Elders Gathering that will be held
from the 10th - 15th November 2012. Coinciding with the total solar
eclipse on November 14th 2012, we are honoured to help facilitate a 5
day Gathering for Elders, Cultural Leaders, Youth, NGO’s and community
workers to come together and share their vision for a new future.
Western
culture is currently facing a time where it needs guidance from the
Indigenous peoples of this earth. The younger generations need guidance.
We have global problems that are affecting our lives and that of the
planet. People are ready to listen. It is time to unite the intellect of
the mind and the wisdom of the heart. The Land is calling us all.
The
Indigenous people of Australia have an integral part to play. We have
one of the oldest cultures on earth. This is an opportunity for
Indigenous Culture and the unbroken connection to the Land to be
acknowledged, appreciated and learned from.
This will be a time
to honour and respect the ancestors and elders that have kept the
culture alive, present in our young ones and active in our hearts and
lives.
The Solar Eclipse is a moment in time to focus our
intentions, share our hearts’ visions, and bring forth the dances, songs
and storylines that allow us to bring into being the vision of a New
Earth.
We were deeply moved to discover that an Ancient Storyline
belonging to Yarrabah Land links directly to the total Solar Eclipse
happening this year on November the 14^th;
“Nganjal (sister sun)
had the brightest light. Gindan (sister moon) had no light when she rose
every night. One morning, Gindan came up and moved in front of Nganjal
(sun) and said ‘Sister, give me some light so I can shine for the people
that are going to come from the east.’ From that day on there was
always light. This eclipse is very significant for us because we are
going to share this happening again; we can see it.. Gidan will come in
front of Ngangal to bring the light.” Binyarabi - Yarrabah elder.
