Pass the Mask. Group Interview



Your group sits in a circle. One person puts on a mask while the others ask questions, interviewing the character that person is forming for the mask. The mask is then passed to the next person in the circle who will attempt to play to same character, but maybe flesh it out a little more and expand on the backstory as more questions are asked, while at the same time maintaining continuity with what was said before. The mask keeps going around, building momentum, until you have stabilized this single character as a group, working out all the kinks and adjusting to assimilate and harmonize with others interpretations. For greater challenge introduce more masks into the circles, where those doing on the interviewing side have to interview in character.

Once the character has bit fleshed out, the group can take the character on outings where they visit unique locations or engage in activities that relate to the fictional circumstances the character is going through. If you are in a public place you may have opportunities to interact with pedestrians. Remember that the members of the group are still passing the mask over the course of the trip. 


The Back Door. Questions and Answers



Get into a meditative state and imagine that you are interacting with other real people within your imagination. Think of someone specific and present a statement like what can I help you with? Or what question do you seek an answer to? What do you want to talk about? Receive the question or topic that is on their mind as you are in a sense, role playing both sides. Allow yourself to give a spontaneous response that supports, builds on, or gives an answer to what they are coming to you with. You are using your own power as a human being to listen to and answer the prayers of other humans. Gods are not the only ones that can answer prayers. Listen to the silence a see what voices pop up, requesting your participation as a co-creator.

You can flip this script and imagine that you are petitioning the aid of a particular person that way you would a deity or spirit guide. Present your questions that need answering and receive their response. You can also imagine giving and receiving support in the form of energy transfers. You can even imagine large networks of people working together to respond to a specific petition.
