the great unfolding

We are alive during one of the greatest dramas in human history. I call this time “The Great Unfolding”. Our shadows and structures are unfurling and showing themselves in the light. We are coming face to face with ourselves, our relationships, our systems, our humanity.

rituals of rewilding

I take my dog for walks each day, I notice that during the sun hours we tend to move forward or clockwise in the direction towards woods and water. In the evening, we tend to move counter clockwise deep into the neighborhood towards moonlight. Each revolution teaches something different and creates a new radius of experience.

Lessons from Coronavirus

The Greek word kaleidoscope has many definitions, such as the two found in Merriam-Webster’s (2019) online dictionary: “an instrument containing loose bits of colored material (such as glass or plastic) between two flat plates and two plane mirrors so placed that changes of position of the bits of material are reflected in an endless variety of patterns.” Kaleidoscope is also used to describe “a changing pattern or scene, a succession of changing phases or actions, and a diverse collection” (Merriam-Webster, 2019). Just like a kaleidoscope, links, connections, and patterns began to shift and emerge. I developed and experimented with a process I termed kaleidoscope theory, a model of transformational development.
