Nucleo Cambio Idea

Hi dear friends


Yesterday I moved to my nucleo. The name is Cambio Idea which means Changing Idea's if I have remembered correctly. Quite an interesting concept to live in a house with about 12 people amongst which the mayor of the city of Vidracco, the doctor, her assisitant, a teacher of the school in Damanhur, allegedly one of the strongest magicians in Damanhur..a singer from the choir, a jewelry artist. Quite strong characters here in the house. Very concerned with the city of Vidracco and local politics, and in character a combination of strength, brains, humor, seriousness, interest in the experiment and also quite a lot of kindness. Everyone is also quite direct and just as in the rest of Damanhur the mentality is much like: take care of yourself! You are told what is necessary to know and the rest: figure out yourself! This is quite refreshing..in a way. Nothing like the 'we are all perfect angels'-attitude you sometimes come across in certain spiritual surroundings. This is the real and 'dirty' life also. 


Today there was a nucleo meeting. We have spoken about a new sustainable power plant that might be built in this area (burning biomass...burning feaces to be exact, quite a new way in which this technology is used, at large scale, apparently) and about 'family'/nucleo administrative things like money and so on. I still feel very well here, although I also feel the challenge of adjusting and playing with all the ingredients here in the community. There are different levels of understanding this culture and rules and ideas are well maintained and carried out. As a new life citizin you are challenged to integrate and to really get to understand this new concept of living together. Including the magic (the rituals, the connection to others on spiritual level, the connection to nature spirits etc), the rules of the nucleo's, of the community meetings and other projects in which you are included in which you use all that happens around you as a mirror to learn and grow. Thrown in the deep, in new and uncertain circumstances in order for you to get to know your nature, by working together with others to come to a positive and creative solution..
This might sounds rather abstract..I might go in more deeply when talking about some typical events. Next week, starting this Thursday I will be offline for a couple of days to work on a project..so che vediamo..until we meet next time, next week or so.
With love
Karin
