New words to old tunes tell how to bring vitality & rain to Australia in the “Rain Making Toolkit” In the beginning is the word
– and the words were sung with power and passion the night before the
heaviest rainfalls in over a year were experienced across eastern Australia.
The night before the drought
breaking rains of December 2002, an Avalon singing group, “A’Cappella
‘Round the Bends” sang a series of “Rainmaking” songs written by Richard
O’Neill for “Ocean & Outback”. The songs were written with new words
to well known tunes, with the intention of enabling people to quickly
“sing-up” and energize themselves and the environment - it WORKED !!!
and Avalon, the sing-up centre had the heaviest rainfall in the metropolitan
area. Now the lessons of
Rainmaking are available in a Rain Making Toolkit, which includes songs
on CD, techniques and a raindance for “Country, Kids & Communities”. The kit is ideal for
schools, councils or community groups, and workshops are offered by Richard
“the Rainmaker” to help bring rain and new vitality especially to drought
affected areas. Rainmaking is practiced
by most ancient cultures – and the science is now beginning to be understood.
Richard, who bridges ancient wisdom with a scientific background, works
with the effects of nature’s subtle frequencies and songlines. He also
delivers vitality & creativity training programs for organizations and
communities. Richard (pictured above)
is an engineer & business consultant to some of Australia’s leading
companies and says “Communities can “sing-up” rain by increasing harmonic
resonance between Earth’s songlines, sacred sites & people – this is an
ancient but largely neglected science.” Aboriginal Elder, Aunty Beryl Carmichael says “My
father, the late Jack Kelly was the last rainmaker in the Broken Hill area -
singing & chanting is very powerful - it comes straight from within the soul
in our language - we sing up fish, rain, and are the custodians of the birthing
song of this region” You may have rainmaker skills too, or know of a rainmaking
story. Richard is interested in gathering stories of other group’s experiences
of rainmaking. by Celebrating Nature is the reason behind 2 other toolkits ie “Song & Dance for the Trees Events” Toolkit and Australian Visions "Big Picture” Toolkit - for Peacing Our World Together.
