The Rousing Chimera: 2012

The Dream of Diversity Accepted

“This is a very important day for us of the Dreaming. Despite being separated by physical distance, we can be together in mind and spirit spending time researching, meditating or introspecting on our traditions and bonds. To that end we hosted an exhilarating open chat on Facebook with Members, Dedicants, Abbon and Friends joining us, thus welcoming over 40 participants. We answered questions, explored philosophies, made new friends, deepened bonds and look forward to the blossoming of possibilities as we look forward to our trip to Europe. A special thank you to Herr Wulfsunus, Master Deacon, Nyx Fury and Ezikiel for such invaluable contributions to our celebration. I felt a portal opening, a surge rising and a blossoming in store. Did you?”

“I collected myself, like the pieces of a mosaic, once lost, scattered but now found, working on keeping all of those pieces that are mine and carefully reconstructing myself. Today reminds me that we are many of one, our house, the true Chimera. This year more so evident than others, for the times we spent together throughout it. I miss you all very deeply and my only solace is that we will meet again. Take special care my friends."

– Herr Wulfsunus, Elder

“It has been an interesting weekend, a lot of plans but only the domestic ones coming forward. It is an odd moment, a lot of things going forward and a lot intents, dreams and desires, I think this year it has been more pointed then normal, but I have high hopes for the year. I greatly enjoyed the parlor! It is always nice to catch up with everyone, and a good time to contemplate the coming new year...or end of the world as it may be LOL.”

– Master Deacon Gray, Calmae

"... this day to celebrate our waning sorrows soon forgotten . Growing reality of spirit and psyche and empowerment of mind and body. To the rising Chimera!"

“Well, I laughed maniacally and rubbed my hands together while thinking of horrible delicious things to make people do."

– Ezikiel Tempted, Member

“On the year 2012 we celebrated this day among us with joy that inspired others to get to know more of us, more of our House and join us on this Path of The Dreaming. Outsiders saw what we are made of, what are our Dreams made of and also they saw our freedom as seekers of the Path and Dreamers. We connected; we shared opinions and understood each other with acceptance and agreed that everyone is entitled of having a vision and opinion of their own. We can share the same origin but we do not share the same vision. We lived ” the dream of diversity accepted” on this day."

– Von Spookiness, Dedicant

“It was thanks to The Rousing Chimera chat on facebook, that I have arrived here, it was a very interesting talk with many different and intelligent viewpoints I hope to be part of such again soon. I thank you Madame X."
