since osw allows only 1 image per post, here is my final post about the Luna Lunaria charities. A very noble cause, and apparently Luna's favorite charity. Giving children a better chance at growing into healthy adults is something I am certain most of us can agree is a very noble and thoughtful, and heartwarming cause.

In a way, we all stood together, and gave what we could, as our way of showing just how much Luna inspired us. I will forever treasure her builds and my numerous wonderful memories and interactions with her, as I am certain we all will. Let this not be a goodbye, but rather, a "see you soon!" in so many ways...when we look at her builds or frequent a party or event set within one of her builds...., each time we are building or working with pbr or any of the many things that remind us of Luna, or simply looking up at the many stars in the night sky, especially in the Orion constellation. Let us be kind to one another, inspire one another, and drive one another to be creative, to inspire, to continue to make our marks of originality on OpenSim that may further differentiate us from other games and platforms! Be well, OpenSim...and keep on shining!

Upon entering Fantasia, the very air feels different—lighter, warmer, and alive with a quiet magic. Before you is the Fairy Meadow, a vast rolling field carpeted with wildflowers in every imaginable color. Tiny lights drift lazily above the blossoms as fairies flit from petal to petal, their laughter sounding like soft chimes in the breeze. In that moment, you realize with absolute certainty that you have crossed into another world, one untouched by time and filled with wonder.

A gently winding path invites you forward, leading you toward the Hobbit Village nestled into grassy hills. Round wooden doors are set into the earth, each framed with ivy and flowering vines. The comforting aroma of fresh bread pulls you toward a cozy bakery, where golden loaves cool on open windowsills and the sound of cheerful humming drifts out the door. Nearby, the winery rests beneath arching grapevines, its barrels aging quietly as the scent of sweet fruit and oak fills the air. Hobbit folk pass by, tipping their hats and offering warm smiles, making you feel like a welcome guest rather than a stranger.

Continuing farther down the path, the scenery slowly transforms as towering trees rise overhead, their branches weaving together to form a natural canopy. You have entered the Fairy Forest, a place of soft shadows and glowing mushrooms that light the way. The forest hums with life—rustling leaves, distant bird calls, and the gentle trickle of hidden streams. Yet curiosity urges you onward.

The path climbs slightly and opens into a breathtaking sight: the Elven Treehouse Village. Seven magnificent treehouses stand high among ancient trees, each one unique and masterfully crafted. Lanterns glow warmly from windows, and laughter echoes through the branches. From this lofty village, you can see the meadow, the hills, and the forest—reminding you that this magical land holds endless adventures, just waiting to be discovered.

You soon realize you have only seen about one third of Fantasia!

The Circle of Healing is Back!!!

🌿 Circle of Healing – Guided Session by Yana Dakota

Sunday, 25 January · 10:15 – 11:30
Samsara Region – Alternate Metaverse
hop://alternatemetaverse.com:8002/Samsara/1076/475/40

A warm invitation to all who feel called to step into a moment of stillness.

The Circle of Healing is a gentle, sacred space where visitors may receive relief through the unique healing practice of Yana Dakota.

This is not Reiki, it is a quiet, intuitive form of energetic support, always grounded in consent and respect.

You are welcome to simply sit within the circle without sharing your story.
The energy will meet you where you are.

Friends may bring those in need, provided it is done with care and approval.

🌍 Special Intention for This Session

During this gathering, we will hold in our hearts the 19 monks walking the Peace Walk from Fort Worth, Texas to Washington, D.C., accompanied by their loyal dog Aloka.
As they walk, we will sit for them, offering calm, strength, and safe passage through our collective meditation.
May their journey be protected.
May their steps be light.
May peace ripple outward from every mile they cross.
All are welcome.
Come as you are.
Sit, breathe, and receive.

Vieles, oder das meiste in Opensim wurde von SL importiert? Das ist jetzt wohl nicht die größte Leistung und ich meinerseits finde es inzwischen gut, die Sachen auszutausen. Es ist eine politische Grauzone gegenüber Second Life. Ich hatte dort einmal Ärger mit einem Designer, der versucht davon zu leben. Es gibt auch den künstlerischen Stolz, dass man nicht gerne aller Öffentlichkeit Dinge überlasssen will an denen man sehr lange gearbeitet hat, besondere NPCs, Kunstwerke, eigenes Design von Kleidung, Möbeln, im Grund eben alles wo man viel Lebenszeit investiert hat. Wenn Du Deine sebstgebauten Häusern unbegrenzt zum Kopieren weitergibst so finde ich das prima. An dieser Stelle versuche ich insofern selbst zu entscheiden, dass ich es den Leuten sage, wenn mir Sachen etwas bedeuten oder sie sind einfach auf no trans eingestellt. Versehentlich habe ich mal eine Region neu gerezzt und er ürsprüngliche Ersteller war überschrieben... ich arbeite daran und lerne weiter.... manche Menschen haben aber einfach kein Feingefühl und meinen dass sie die göttllichen Administratorrechte haben um mit anderer Leute Arbeit und Qualität ihren Traffic zu erhöhen. Für mich ist das eines der wichtigsten Themen in Opensim, das im Detail viele Fragen mit sich bringt. In letzter Zeit denke ich allerdings darüber nach, was mit meiner ganzen Arbeit passiert, wenn mir etwas passiert? Wenn meine Server nicht bezahlt werden, dann ist alles weg, ich kann lediglich die Erfahrung mit ins Grab nehmen. Insofern ändere ich langsam mein Verhalten und sehe es eher umgekehrt, dass ich mich freue, wenn Leute Freude an meiner Arbeit haben. Diese Leute sind jetzt noch auf meine Freunde begrenzt, aber das wird sich im Zuge der weiteren Verschlechterung meiner Gesundheit sicherlich noch ändern... Eine interessante Entwicklung wie ich finde... Am Ende bin ich total beruhigt wenn etwas von meinem künstlerischem Schaffen in der Welt weiter existiert.... Ich plane eine grosse Ausstellung in eienr 2x2 simgrossen Stadt und werde mit der Zeit alles ausstellen was ich gut finde was ich so in meinem Leben gemacht habe... wenn die Region dann irgendwann fertig ist, dann verschenke ich sie. Bisher habe ich nur eine kleine Sammlung von KI Kunst frei gegeben und wäre dann sehr gespannt diese Bilder in irgenwelche Arbeiten andere integriert zu sehen... Das ging mir so mit meinem Materiall in RL bei einem Vision Board Workshop letztes Wochenende. Dieses Erlebnis hat mich bestärkt und ich emfinde es als angenehm. Die Angst vor Problemen mit den Erstellern in Second Life habe ich immer noch, weil ich da Verständis habe für deren Belange. Hat jemand damit Erfahrung? Gab es schon mal rechtliche Konsequenzen? Soviel ich weiss, kann einem Second Life einfach den Account sperren. Das will ich vermeiden, weil ich dort jahrelang an meinem Multiscene Rezzer Stations gebaut habe, die sind no trans und ich will das Zeug nicht verlieren. Das Letzte wollte ich noch erwähnt haben, denn man könnte denken, ich wäre geizig oder so und das wäre ja kein Problem. Was denkt Ihr darüber?
