The First International Creative Gathering of the
Network of Life

GEOMANCY AS A WAY OF LIFE
23rd to 27th of July 2008 in Lendava, Slovenia

The Slovenian LifeNet (Lebensnetz) Association VITAAA and its president Marko Pogacnik invite all friends creative within our network and those who share with us the holistic approach to the Earth Cosmos to come to Slovenia to our congress that we would like to manifest as a creative gathering.

The framework of the gathering
Ten years have passed since the Network of Life (LifeNet) was founded at Sempas, Slovenia. At that time only Earth Healing groups from German speaking countries took part in the network. In meanwhile LifeNet experienced a quite large international development. This means that the moment is ripe to meet within this new framework, to get to know each other in person and to hold consultations on the future development of LifeNet.

Our association decided to organise the gathering in Lendava in the very eastern corner of Slovenia at the border with Hungary, following three reasons: During 2006 we have built there a complex lithopuncture system on both sides of the border financed by European Union. During the geomantic work, we discovered great potentials for the future development of the Earth there. Also, we will be able to use a most wonderful Hall built recently by the Hungarian architect Makovecz existing in Lendava.

Purpose of the gathering
We live in a time when humanity starts to be conscious of the Earth transformation process. Scientists and politicians try to dam the planet’s destruction. Yet those who understands the geomatic approach, and develop loving relationships to the Earth soul, know that any development in this direction is impossible without a basic change of the human way of life.

It means that we should work on further development of our network, (called in subtitle “Geomancy and Transformation”) to have a platform upon which it is possible autonomously to realise our responsibility towards life within and around ourselves.

How do we want to formulate our contribution to the planetary transformation, how we want to live it and to bring it into the public awareness, are the central questions to be addresses by the LifeNet Creative Gathering 2008. Secondly, we would like to hear about projects on which different groups and individuals are working, discuss our common future projects and forge new friendships.

Why “Creative Gathering”?
We do not intend to focus only at the exchange of ideas and experiences, but also to perform together certain works for the benefit of life on Earth, that small groups will be developing during the gathering. As we have asked in March 2008 about the participation at the LifeNet gathering, about 130 persons expressed the wish to come. Counting also on Slovenian collaborators, we expect 150, maximum 200 participants.

Time frame
The gathering starts in Lendava with a common meal on Wednesday, July 23rd at 6 p.m. and the official opening at 8 p.m. The congress will end on Sunday, July 27th with lunch at 1 p.m. (About transportation see information contained in the registration form.) For detailed time table see the provisory programme!
