"Trees are the timeless bridge between Father Sky and Mother Earth;
Wind is the formless messenger sharing their secrets to those who listen.
These, and all elements of nature,
Ask that we offer our gratitude in return for their endless gifts."
In gratefulness and recognition of the Winds and the contribution they provide to the web of life, we encourage you to join us in expressing your thankfulness through the Winds Gratitude Ceremony. We invite you to pray with the land where you live and from there to give thanks to the winds you have known, both near and far. Many other members of the ONE community will also be expressing their gratitude for the Winds, all for the purpose of a vibrant future for Earth and all life.
Reciprocity is a cornerstone in good relationships with our Nature kin and showing our gratitude is key in building Co-Creative Partnership with our landscapes. Our friends at Organization of Nature Evolutionaries (https://www.natureevolutionaries.com/classes-workshops/wind-gratitude-ceremony) initiated this ceremony.
We have partnered with them to create a printable instruction sheet to provide guidance and the framework for you to bring your creativity and open heart.

"Standing outside with hands outstretched and fingers spread wide,
I feel the air move across my hands and face and through my hair.
I breathe deeply into my heart center and when I exhale,
I send love and gratitude through my fingertips
and breath to the forces of the wind."

"Beloved Wind, you are the great living force moving willfully
across our precious Mother Earth.
In all your manifestations, you freely gust, blow, prevail,
carry, surge, spiral and transport.
Your mighty power creates, maintains, and destroys
as you rise and subside, heat and chill, fuel and withhold,
seed and engulf all that sustains our world.
I offer you my gratitude.
May we create environments that harmonize with your will.
May we attend to conditions that encourage your power of balance.
May you be recognized, honored and cherished.”
