Autumn is a time of being grateful for what we have. But it's easy to get too caught up in having and forget about the magic of giving-especially in a culture that encourages consumerism instead of consciousness. Gift-giving is a beautiful way to strengthen the bonds of friendship and family, weaving a community together. For this bit of magic, you'll need a blanket and several other people. People should bring one or more items they no longer need, but that are still appealing. For every item you put on the blanket to give away, you may take one item that someone else has put down. Here is a chant to sing while loading and unloading the blanket:

Give meaning to
The life you live.
We are all
Just passing through,
Giving what we have to give,
You to me and me to you.
