Sun-Moon
Dancers and Support People

As chief of the Sun-Moon Dance, I want to extend my congratulations and gratitude for the opportunity we all shared in a profound expression of "breath, matter and movement" and for the effort, prayers, and healing the Dance inspired. I have watched the creation of new life in all the Dances; Spring Renewal, Long Dance and Sun-Moon Dance for all the people dancing. As Joseph, Beautiful Painted Arrow, often says, "We also dance that others may live."
With Love and Harmony,
Owen James 

Barbara Wunsch who has worked with Joseph for the past two years, came from New Mexico for the Sun-Moon Dance and stayed on all summer to help with the organization of Rainbow Arrow Teachings and support the Chamber project. "As the Chambers come to a higher level of vibration I could feel the connection between Earth and Sky and the Celebration of Spirit as we listened to the chanting..." says Barbara, from Jeanne White Eagle's initiation of the Bernalillo and Hesperus Chambers.

Only one year from the date, Joseph Rael dedicated the ground for the Chamber. It has become a place for spiritual growth for chanting, singing and meditation. Groups have come from other places to hold Sacred Ceremony celebrations and have loved the Chamber.

All this was possible thanks to the great assistance of people who gave both in physical labor and financial contribution. The dream for peace and love on this earth through the Chambers has taken form. Jeanne White Eagle has been guided to work with the Chambers all over the world. We had the good fortune to experience the beauty of her inspired voice when she came to assist us in a fund raising event and she will return when the Chamber is completed, and that's an incentive!

While building the Chamber, not only has my life as Caretaker been effected with the tremendous growth and reevaluation, but those who have supported the building have been given the gifts of association for world peace and the uplifting of the Earth's vibration.

A group of us went up to the Bancroft Crystal Jubilee and made contacts to procure the rose quartz crystal for the outer stone wall on the Chamber. Good fortune also brought us a trailer for sale on the way back, just what we need...then 50 feet down the road we spot white quartz stone in the ditch calling to us. Perhaps the image of 5 people rolling huge chunks of stone out of the ditch, skirts billowing in the breeze, will be a good winter story to tell around the fire.

Two trips to a local farm have given us a good size pile of stone. We are ready to begin!

Sri Karunamayi was here for 3 days, blessing us all. Each day 85 people came to see her for private blessings and initiations. The evening darshan's were inspirational and very touching. We will need a larger support group for next years visit now that we know what is involved! Service and lots of fun too.

Guadalupe Rios taught us a great deal both in the two ceremonies held at the Peace Chamber and in her healing and clearing treatments.

The Santo Daime Group from Montreal held a wonderful ceremony in the Chamber, "an invitation to be in celestial heaven".
