Quote: the power of the circle

[00goddess]

The Circle has healing power. In the Circle we are all equal. When in the Circle, no one is in front of you. No one is above you. No one is below you. The Sacred Circle is designed to create unity. The Hoop of Life is also a circle. On this hoop there is a place for every species, every race, every tree and every plant. It is this completeness of Life that must be respected in order to bring about health on this planet. To understand each other, as the ripples when a stone is tossed into the waters, the Circle starts small and grows....until it fills the whole lake.
