ETHERION means DIVINE, Anastasia/Ringing Cedar books are a guiding principle, as are Conversations with God, Castaneda, Permaculture, Yoga etc, but we recognize all denominations & are open-minded.
701 hectares (1734 acres) of Northern Tablelands paradise, purchased May 2008 with an established homestead & independent solar power system. Superb climate at 1200m, 32C max ever (no bushfires), 900mm rainfall, geologically stable, very high light levels year round. Unlike traditional communities, the Ringing Cedar model allows a union of opposites, one hectare (2.5 acre) domains bordered by living, not dead, fences, preserving individuality & personal creativity, surrounded by a collective village of inter-dependent domains.
VISION STATEMENT
Etherion has characteristics of the heavenly, where our soul life, social experiences and ecology reflect the goodness of love, creation, simplicity and balance. We’ll live on top of a mountain…..(more, see website).
SPIRITUALITY
Realising our selves and our relationships with each other and our earth lies at the heart of our intention. Balance and harmony will be created by the soulful living of each person. The love and energy created by our spiritual lives will bring about joy and harmony, humbleness, purity and giving…..Meditations, yogic living, holistic living and ceremonies…..
COMMUNITY
Our community has been created for all ages, children to elders. Love for each other through family and friendship is our achievement. We are self-governing therefore the communal life we aim to create is one of peace, appreciation, fun, action and accepting. We are a gift community, whereby if someone is in need, their needs are met…..
ECOLOGY
Living in harmony with our earth brings a way of being which is sacred and healthy. Nourishing and supporting her requires gift energy too. To nourish the soils, keep water ways clean, encourage the presence of wildlife, waste minimally, enhancing the forest, requires us to live in certain ways. Our homes will be built from the earth or recycled items, our energy will be created by us…..
AESTHETICS
Being a community of young to elder, of diverse talents and interests, of various spiritual paths, our village will be reflective of all we give and want. We will build a village of cluster homes…..these include a community centre with a kitchen and stage for our entertainment and visitors, a school for our children…..
