Dear friends

We have come here together to study and to explore in the wonders of our world, to create a collection on our knowledge and feelings on what surrounds us and capture our knowledge in one precious book that will be shared. So go out now, walk the woodlands, walk the shores, stand in the gentle wind and light a warming fire, and then see what you will find…


In other words:

This is another pagan swap… For your ONE swap partner you will create a book on the elements. Take a notebook or something similar and divide its amount of pages equally – same amount for every element. Then you will have to fill at least 10 pages per element. You can always do more if you like – maybe there’s one element that means especially much to you and you want to share much more about it? Anyway, 10 pages per element at least – you can leave the rest of the pages per element empty – for your swap partner to fill with their own ideas, etc. The idea is to be as creative as you want and can be – you can draw, decorate, along with writing down maybe a very personal information on one element, maybe share a special meditation on an element, or a ritual, maybe a mythical story, or a collection of things that are connected to one element (like earth - information on special crystals), or a poem, an information on Gods and Goddesses specifically connected to certain elements… let your mind wander and explore what you’d like to share. The idea is to create a wonderful book that maybe can be continued by your swap-partner, a collection of knowledge and fun. And please decorate the outside of the book, too. It doesn’t have to be decorated dedicated to all of the elements (it can though!), you may choose one of them if you like.  I hope you’ll enjoy this swap! And I’m leaving a lot of time for it – plus you can get started NOW if you like. It’s not to be partner-specific. It’s what YOU want to share.

Are we doing 4 or 5 elements (5th being spirit or ether)? Just thought I would check. I am watching this one for now!

hmh, good point... let's say the 4 elements and leave the 5th optional so it might be a little easier for everyone. BUT if everyone who might still join says they want all 5 - just say the word and I'll put it up as a rule. :)

I am so sorry sweetie to have to drop, but I want to stay in the book of Magic swap and as you know I am hosting and participating in a lot as well, I don't feel I could do this one justice as it would be rushed as I have many things due in March and I don't want to do it unless I can do my best.

I hope you understand and I hope you host this swap again as I would love to join...

Hi everyone seeing that everyone's very busy and in the end nobody could participate... I've changed the dates, so... maybe until then someone will have enough time to join. :)

This sounds absolutely fabolous, however it its a very demanding project that would probably take me 40 hours to complete. Its on my watch list though,But I doubt I will have time for something like that. Let me know if you ever create a "light" version of this!

Sharila 02/28/2009 #

Oh what the heck...I am jumping into it and will work on it an hour every day from tomorrow!
