"Great! We're all here!" 7 Rabbit says as he tosses a robe to Karma. He squints at the sky: "Perfect timing!"
Rabbit points to five small marks in the moss (which look suspiciously like boot prints). "Now, would the five witnesses please stand on their places, forming a five pointed star. Good, now stand still and make no noise, please. Try to move as little as possible. You are supposed to be mute, impassive observers. Bob, please don't fidgit. I promise you'll see some magic, but you have to contain yourself." Farmer Bob, with a visible effort, stops jittering and takes a few breaths.
7 Rabbit stands at the base of the star, between two of the points and just outside the group, and motions to Artemis. "Kneel down, facing me, as close as you can get to the center of the ring of witnesses. Then look to the sky and focus on your chosen guide star. You should be able to pick it out easily. Let your mind clear, and when you're ready to continue, intone, 'I am open to the wisdom of the heavens.' Then I will continue the formula, and you can repeat the words after me."
