Vow of Earth

We are a people of a place. 

We grow with it and through it. 

We will prefigure the life we desire.

We will build a new world in the shell of the old.

We will live it in daily practice.

Through Community. 

Through Dedication 

Through a life rooted 

in place and persistence.

We will build. 

We will tend.

We will find meaning,

In the life of today.

We will sow the harvest

of future generations.

We are one earth.

Vow of Fire 

We are a people of ritual.

We flow with it into our daily lives.

We are not bound to it.

Or any doctrine.

The truth is revealed every moment.

We witness and we change.

We burn

to thank the ashes for new growth.

We build meaning into our lives.

Intentionally.

Intuitively.

With no chain

or chasuble.

We are each of the fire.

Holy and Changing.

We will not forget our future to whims

Nor our past to wishes

We will envision daily.

For a better way.

We will strive to become.

Together.

We are one fire.
