This month’s first New Moon falls in the sign of Sagittarius, the great cosmic archer and the more exalted octave of Gemini. It is he who encourages us to elevate our thoughts and ideas before releasing them into the higher realms for seeding. It is he who exhorts us to aim higher, dream bigger, shoot for the stars…but with discernment and precision.

We covenant to affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity of all people and to promote respect for the interdependent web of creation of which we are a part.
