Welcome Here Circle of Light Community Network - Rainbow Tribes
World Wide
 Welcome Here Circle of Light is a loving effort of combined heartsongs dedicated to Spirit and the Children of the Rainbow Family Tribes and serves as a community network open and free to all.
The Rainbow Family has celebrated an annual gathering of the tribes in North America from the 1st of July through the 7th since approximately 1972.
Rainbow gatherings are attended by thousands of people from every corner of the globe and comprised many individuals, groups, and non-groups, freely associating under the premise of harmony, coming together for a moment in time to pray in a circle for world peace.
This blessing occurs with the rising of the sun on the morning of July 4th in a sacred meadow until high noon. This silent meditative prayer and introspection into a world of harmony is a vibration shared by many worldwide. We are all truly connected as a family of one.
Rainbow Family Gatherings grow and become through autonomous participation that is egalitarian and based on mutual respect, and has open consensual counsel processes that allow for all views and considerations.
