S haring yourself within a group can be a very joyous and empowering way to awaken, explore and develop your berdache spirit. If you choose to cast a circle, there are a number of interactive modes that may be appropriate for your group, and there are many effective ways to raise and channel energy. The writings of Starhawk are a wonderful resource for such techniques, and there are a number of other traditions to explore. A basic circle ritual often involves simple elements like sensing group energy, group breath, creative visualization, chanting, and should always conclude with a grounding exercise.

Imagine how much energy could be raised just by starting your own circle, and the ripple effect of other circles forming elsewhere around the country. Then imagine the possibilities of further networking, where circles converge regionally for festivals of the arts and healing that benefit society as a whole. Goddess Gaia, Merry Mother of us all Oh World, get ready.
