A call has been put out for all indigenous Australians, Australian supporters of indigenous sovereignty and the international community to come to Canberra and show support for the Aboriginal Tent Embassy as soon as possible.

This urgent SOS comes following the firebombing of a heritage listed cultural centre at the Embassy. All of the Embassy's important documents had been in the structure for safe-keeping and this vicious act of arson represents a great loss for the indigenous communities of Australia. This arson attack represents the mostly irreplaceable loss of 31 years of paperwork, documents and photographs collected by the Embassy.

Lunar Legend >>

So many legends of old are lost in the space of time. Here is one for you to ponder upon...

The first ten days after a New Moon are considered oracular.

THE FIRST DAY is good to begin new ventures, but if you fall ill on this day the malady will last a long time. Children born at a New Moon will live long and prosper.

THE SECOND DAY gives excellent prospects for sales people. In fact, it is a good time to buy or sell anything. It is auspicious for sea voyages, for farmers to plough and for seeds to be sown. Children born on this day be very persuasive.

THE THIRD DAY is an ominous one, so care should be taken. Double-dealers and criminals fare worst because they are likely to be caught. Children born now may be sickly.

THE FOURTH DAY is good for the start of any construction work. All domestic affairs, and those connected with houses and buildings generally will be successful. Children born on this day will be subtle and may favor politics.

THE FIFTH DAY reveals the weather pattern for the rest of the month. It is an excellent time for the conception of a child to occur. Children born on this day will possess great sensitivity and be very creative.

THE SIXTH DAY is most auspicious for those who hunt or fish, since the haul will be good. Children born on this day will be enterprising and fond of the outdoor life.

THE SEVENTH DAY is the best for affairs of the heart to flourish. Take note of anyone you meet on this day, for romance is in the air. Children born now will be kind and loving.

THE EIGHTH DAY is a gloomy one for health matters and bodes ill for anyone who contracts an ailment on this day. Children born now will have a leaning towards the medical profession.

THE NINTH DAY influence warns of madness if one should allow the light of the Moon to fall on one's face while asleep. Even if Moon-madness is avoided, a perpetual look of fear may be left on the features. Children born on this day will be hard to understand.

THE TENTH DAY is good for travel and explorations of any kind. Children born on this day will be restless and journey far.
