UNIQUE VINE.
I think my vine is unique, that its possibly the only vine on Earth that has met every person its gone into.
10 years worth of souls.
(well maybe 20 exceptions now I think about it)
Further than that, any purge from them, which is the DNA of all the plants in the medicine, mixed with the persons DNA, and imprinted with whatever energies the medicine released from that person.
It is poured into the roots in a closing Ceremony of gratitude.
Those usually negative energies, are then transmuted by the vine back into healing prowess.
This process educates the vine, about the current play of humanity.
I think its important to do everything possible to help the technology of Ayahuasca be as informed and involved as possible about Man Kind.
I see that this makes its operation more targeted and effective.

Aunty Leanne is our local Cultural Tour operator. She is a truly informative and wise tour guide and so much more. A good neighbour to have. Find her at www.wollombiculture.com

Biggest of thank you to Aunty Leanne and Lesley (Wingaru Education) for sharing their story and wisdom tonight at our Yarn and Learn. We talked Country and the importance of what it has to teach us, and how we can learn from it no matter what our educational setting. So much food for thought from tonight's session. So much insight and important reflections shared.

Our last Yarn and Learn for a little while as we get busy with Reconciliation Week and NAIDOC! Looking forward to further yarns later in the year.

Critical Thinking For the Treaty First/Sovereignty Supporters from Claire G Coleman - a Wirlomin-Noongar-Australian Woman, writer and poet, whose 2017 debut novel, Terra Nullius won the Norma K Hemming Award.

"If the NO campaign win this referendum, the treaty-first/sovereignty mob will find themselves in a fight they cannot win. They seem to believe that a failed referendum will make treaty easier to achieve. This belief exposes a complete failure to understand the political landscape. The right-wing NO don’t want voice or treaty; when you argue for NO they support you, then when you ask for treaty they are no longer on your side. The NO campaigners who have been using paid advertising and public relations companies to amplify the treaty-first campaign because it helps them will suddenly leverage the same resources to fight against treaty.

The treaty-first movement would then end up fighting for treaty or sovereignty with diminished capacity, against an emboldened enemy, and without the support of the allies and friends they alienated with their uncompromising NO stance.

If, on the other hand, the people who consider treaty more important campaign for YES, they will almost certainly have the support of the YES side of the referendum when they go on to fight for treaty—because they will have united everybody who wants a better deal for Indigenous people. So the best way for the ‘treaty first’ campaigners to achieve their aim of a treaty is to campaign for YES in the Voice referendum, and thus gain the support of those of us who think the Voice is necessary. Most importantly, they will have the support of the Voice to Parliament and the resources and influence the Voice would wield." https://meanjin.com.au/blog/vote-yes-because-no-means-no/?fbclid=IwAR0ujnUdyWBIl6ELC9gXrWSPKOTnmpfFNjDiVlWwqSICz2MxAgsn-RlwNeI_aem_AbrjL5R0LBNcMIUsXN4Gl4rVASdhoUF8cjpD8w3O2B1suhkQoct7EhwyfylXjcUGjoQ

If, like me, you are over 42 years old, you would have voted in the 1999 republic referendum. This was a referendum to answer a simple question: Do we cease being a constitutional monarchy and beco…

One sunny morning at GibberGunyah, I sat drinking tea on the front step with Ursula and listened to the birds recite the day's song...... it was a good song. From out the corner of my eye I glimpsed a tiny sparkle emanating from the violets and much to my surprise we had chanced upon galaxies of unnamed stars right there in our garden. We journeyed up close to explore their alignments but Ursula got space-sick and complained she wanted to come home. In space no body can hear you whine.

Gibber Gunyah's first Dive Deep Immersion review!

Thank you Scott for placing your trust in Gibber Gunyah. We know this land to be special and all that abide here are magic. So grateful and happy to be able to share with you and T. again this week. As my daughter quoted the first time she stood on this land with me - "This place can never be owned by you or anyone, it found you because you'll share it." We intend to keep doing that. ✨🌵💜🍄✨

"This was without question, one of the most profound and beautiful experiences of my life, right at a time where I needed it most.
The bedrock to all of this was Donna's beautiful welcome to Gibber Gunyah, her generosity, and her holding a safe space for me. I believe this fundamentally shaped my journey and for this I am forever grateful to her. Thank you Donna Snowdon you truly were my trip angel. 🙏🏻

If you would like to visit Gibber Gunyah, please reach out to Donna, you won't regret it!

Oh, and toward the end of my trip, her puppy Ursula came and gave me wet puppy kisses, sat down on my mat next to me, and gave me a cuddle for a few moments. With her being a young puppy, I thought this won't last long, and sure enough, she was off! Bounding away to the next thing that took her interest. :-)

It's hard to put what I experienced into words, but at the age of 52 and having recently gone through some of the most trying times of my entire life, I feel refreshed, I feel loved and I feel renewed. I know now that the universe is kindness and love if you will allow it in. I hope that you can feel it too."
