"The circle exits on the boundaries of ordinary space and time; 

it is 'between worlds' of the seen and unseen, 

of flashlight and starlight consciousness, 

a space in which alternate realities meet, in which the past and future are open to us. 

Time is no longer measured out, it becomes elastic, fluid, 

a swirling pool in which we dive and swim. 

The restrictions and distinctions of our socially defined roles no longer apply; 

only the rule of nature holds sway... 

Within the circle, the powers within us... 

are revealed."
