Went to visit the pals at Heibo occupation in Germany, they been keeping the forest safe from a very hella ugly concrete mining operation. To make eviction difficult, and to spite gravity's intentions for human kind, these folks live very high off the ground in treehouses they made themselves out of trash.

A Spiral Dance Ritual during the sit in at Berkeley’s Oak Grove.  The sit in began December 2, 2006 as a protest against UC Berkeley’s planned destruction of an ancient stand of coast live oaks.  The sit in lasted until September 2008, when the grove was destroyed.  On September 9, tree sitters occupying the last standing oak were removed by police and the tree was cut down.  

This Spiral Dance celebrates the first month of the sit in on Jan. 6, 2007:

“The celebratory ritual, including testimony and song, was well received by the numerous tree sitters stationed high above. The group chanted ‘Will we look to the forest...listen to the silence...heal our connection...will we?’”

The first Spiral Dance Ritual was conducted in 1979 by the Bay Area pagan organization Reclaiming Collective.  It was a celebration of the publication of founding member Starhawk’s book The Spiral Dance: A Rebirth of the Ancient Religion of the Great Goddess.
