Symbolic actions - mixing sand or liquids.

Including a symbolic action into a ceremony can be a lovely way to create a special visual moment.

Today I would like to think about mixing sand or liquid.  Both  of these are irreversible changes.  

When mixing sand each person can select a different coloured sand.  At the appropriate time the individual containers are poured into a larger one.  

Just as the grains of coloured sand can never be separated out so the lives of those taking part are forever linked together.

Or why not get the chemistry fizzing by mixing two liquids ?

Maybe make your favourite cocktail - and share it !
