Guiding Principles

of the Crossing Hedgerows Community

Honor the Divine in Each Person:

Treat every individual as a child of God, worthy of respect, kindness, and compassion. We are all equals on this journey.

We recognize the supreme importance of gender and bringing together the polarities of male and female within ourselves as a major component of our Great Work in achieving the alchemical marriage. We do not support the mutilation of bodies to achieve this desired effect.

We see marriage as a sacrament which is expressly intended to heal the original division of the sexes into male and female, and as such is not applicable for same-sex couples.

Foster a Spirit of Healing

Our space is dedicated to healing through love. Let your actions and words contribute to an atmosphere of upliftment and care.

Practice Kindness & Empathy

Engage with others gently, listen with an open heart, and seek to understand rather than judge.

Respect the Land & Its Creatures

Treat the sanctuary and its natural inhabitants with reverence. Follow our guidelines for caring for the land and preserving its beauty
