1. Honor the Story

Every offering, request, and exchange begins with a story. Share with intention. Listen with care. Respond with respect.

2. Protect the Sacred

This is a space for original work, vulnerable dreaming, and intentional connection. Do not copy, exploit, or diminish what others have created. Ask before you echo.

3. Speak with Kindness, Moderate with Clarity

We welcome diverse voices, but not harmful ones. No harassment, hate speech, or manipulation. This is not a space for bullying or politics. Diversity is key — every challenge, offering, and creation is shaped by who we are: our race, religion, background, and lived experience. Moderation is gentle but firm, guided by empathy and the protection of this space.

4. Consent is Core

Whether you're bartering, building, or simply commenting — make sure all parties are informed and willing. No assumptions. No pressure. Just clear, mutual agreement.

5. Keep the Exchange Intentional

This is not a marketplace of impulse. It’s a ritual of exchange. Share only what you truly wish to offer. Request only what you’re ready to receive.

6. Respect Boundaries

Some areas are sacred, some experimental. Follow posted signs. Don’t cross into spaces not meant for you. If unsure, ask.

7. No Spam, Scams, or Self-Promotion Without Invitation

This is not a billboard. It’s a garden. If you wish to share your work, do so with context, care, and relevance to the community.

8. We Evolve Together

These guidelines may grow as the community does. Feedback is welcome. Updates will be shared. The tone will remain: protective, poetic, and clear.
