ILLUMINIST ARABIA CONSECRATION 11-12-11

CONSECRATION OF TAU MICHAEL SANBORN
Mid November on the wilds and largely treeless Arabia Mountain power spot is a bit late in the year for even hearty free illuminists, but the weather favored us, fair and not too chilly, and we had a good turn out to do an Episcopal Consecration for our honored guest Michael Sanborn from Portland Oregon, the Facilitator General of Azoth Temple of Universal Illuminism, along with signing his Lodge Charter. For the ceremony used, see the entry at http://tausirhasirim.livejournal.com/133104.html.

Tau Aha, founder and a founding facilitator of Atlanta's Temple of the Black Sun, was present just before departing Atlanta, and we had a formal passing of the Charter and Torch of Temple of the Black Sun, with the facilitatorship passing into the capable hands of our brother Tau Aron and sister Raven, who I had ordained deacon about two years ago, and who we were honored to ordain Priestess this Saturday. A number of us witnessed the signing of the original charter by the new facilitators, at the end of the Arabia Working. The Black Sun is in good hands and will doubtless continue to do great Work.

A number of people wanted to receive points chauds (see e.g. http://www.mindspring.com/~hellfire/bishop/points1.htm or http://taunaamah.wordpress.com/faq-on-points-chauds/ )within the 97 point-degree system we Work with, and these were administered as illustrated in our pictorial account of the November 12th Working at http://tausirhasirim.livejournal.com/133126.html .

As has become customary, we ended as the sun began to set (and temperature rapidly dropped) with a robust and powerful healing circle for those absent and present in need. AFAIK, everyone present participated.

Tau Allen Greenfield, Assisted by Tau Aron and Tau Dositheos, Consecrated Tau Michael Sanborn. assisted by Tau Roger as de facto Deacon. Technically this is a reconsecration sub conditione, but in specific into the rich egregore of inclusive Congregational Illuminism, presented in our very eclectic ceremony.

We have come a long way indeed as an evolving, loving, caring worldwide community, with 50 local bodies and approaching 2000 members.
