The Alliance for Spiritual Ecology is not just an alliance among humans. It is an Alliance between the human and elemental kingdoms.In a number of stories in Soul on Fire, Peter describes how simple ceremonies by a single person, or only a few people, were able to accomplish the seemingly impossible, triumphing against overwhelming odds where activism, organized protests, and public education had failed.

Can you imagine what large gatherings of us or a number of small groups could achieve with a carefully synchronized and concerted effort?

The purpose of this Alliance is, first, to create a local, regional, and ultimately national and world-wide group of people dedicated to protect both the sacred sites of Earth and environmentally sensitive areas that are threatened by such things as invasive development, oil and gas exploration, strip mining, clear cutting, or the selling off of public lands. The Alliance is also being established for healing areas that have been abused and brought into unbalance; and areas stricken by drought and excessive rainfall, perhaps even blight or infestation.

Those working with the Alliance for Spiritual Ecology, founded in June of 2006, have been given a powerful protocol for healing and protecting our beloved Earth and those with whom we share this planet - but do not have a voice or vote. These members of our world include the wild creatures, the great whales and dolphins, the other ‘intelligent’ life on this world, the old growth forests, and the atmosphere. The approach to conducting sacred ceremonies used by the Alliance has provided amazingly effective for stopping exploitation of sacred sites and fragile ecosystems. It has proven effective in preventing laws from being passed (both local and national) that are invasive to the Earth as well as those that are invasive to human rights.

Each time we have performed a ceremony whether in Tennessee, North Carolina, Virginia, or other states where Peter has lectured or taught a seminar, specific, tangible results have occurred, which Peter and Astrid have documented.

Where as so many well-intentioned ceremonies for the Earth have seemed to bring only modest results, this has not been the case for the Alliance for Spiritual Ecology, and the Alliance's results have not been modest. Rather, the results have often been immediate and tangible. In those areas such as global warming and pollution of the oceans where results are more difficult to measure, there have been remarkable synchronicities, which Peter and Astrid believe are like ‘promises from the Invisible World’ that the ceremony has been effective and blessed.

Peter and Astrid believe there are specific reasons for this difference:
1. First, it is not just an agreement among humans to assist the Earth but is an alliance between humans and the Native Elements – a contractual agreement that Peter and Astrid are certain has been accomplished.
2. Secondly, it is through the power of intention – one of the greatest forces in the universe – that is used in these ceremonies.
3. Third, the method if “sealing” intention in the Etheric Grid Work or the Energetic Template of the planet at the end of each ceremony virtually assures results!

We are just getting started and have over 150 members spread out from Idaho to Maine to the US Virgin Islands. The Alliance for Spiritual Ecology (ASE) will hold ceremonies in the afternoon on the Sundays just before or within one day after the full moon. (In most Native Americans traditions, the day before, the day of, and the day after a full moon have the power of the full moon.) The dates for ceremonies in 2008 are:

January 20, 2008
February 17, 2008
March 23, 2008

We encourage you to join us by holding a ceremony in your area at that time if possible. You can follow the “Steps for Conducting a Sacred Ceremony” described in Appendix B of Soul on Fire or click here for a summary.

If you are interested in volunteering to find another person to do a ceremony with – or to create a group of people for this special purpose - please send an e-mail to Natalie Worthington, Spokeswoman for the Alliance.
