Viventibus Mundos is the seventh [Liturgical Season](/Liturgical_Season) in the SolSeed Movement's Liturgical Calendar. It symbolizes the spreading of life from Earth throughout the Solar System. It runs from the [Fall Equinox](/Fall_Equinox) to Mid Fall. During this season the [Weekly Service Calls](/Weekly_Service_Calls) use the following opening ceremony:
<Each person begins with a cup of water>
Barren worlds ... everywhere ... barren worlds ...
But here ... <gasp> ... Earth!
<light earth candle>
Cities! Farms! Forests! Seas!
A living world poised to flower and spread.
A living world supporting a beautiful civilization
A living world, bursting with possibility.
Our story begins with the people, our members ...
We who answer the call!
<Each person pours their water into a common bowl>
As we practice, a movement forms,
Binding our lives together,
Reminding our elephants,
Aligning our words and actions
With our highest aspirations.
<Each person dips their finger into the common bowl of water and then touches it to their mouth and opposite hand><symbolism: water is highest aspirations or community supporting highest aspirations; mouth is words and opposite hand is actions>
We bring the new trees!
The new trees make life's next great leap.
The new trees take root on barren worlds.
<lay a floatable tree seed (e.g. individual maple key or pine seed (not whole cone)) on the surface of the water>
And ... we grow new homes!
Bringing barren worlds to life,
Colonies where life's upward spiral supports all spacefaring creatures.
<light second candle the first week and one more each week through the season.>
People. Practice. Trees. Colonies.
From barren worlds ... <gasp> ... a family of living worlds.
