Calling the Circle: The First and Future Culture

The circle has been a social form since humankind huddled around the first campfires. People gather into a circle to call on Spirit, to celebrate to hold council, to create community, to govern by consensus, to make cooperative decisions, to take action. Christina Baldwin introduces a practical, how-to structure for calling the circle and exploring its potential to empower our lives. Using three principles-rotating leadership, shared responsibility, and attention to Spirit-Baldwin constructs a model for circling which she calls (tm) and shows how this may be applied wherever you go.
