Soft, Earthen Futures

I was good for so long.Polite. Appropriate. Manageable.’Good’ didn’t keep me safe.It kept me quiet.It made me agreeableto my own erasure.I think some of us have tounlearn ‘goodness’.Because ‘goodness’, for us,was never about integrity.It was about disappearing.

— Yrsa Daley Ward

This time we’re experiencing on Earth right now is deeply alchemical. We have never known the mystery the way we know it right now.

The era of creating from the spirit of solutionism, domination, and apartheid is coming to an end. What emerges in its place is the revival of a more spiralic, more ancient, more embodied way of creating reality: a way that attunes, invokes, sings, poets, and listens for what wants to be created on the Earth.

We are entering an era where force and intellect are no longer the primary architects of the future. The heart and soul and capacity to attune the subtle realities are now the most essential capabilities for those of us who wish to create, build, nurture life / business / vision and organization in harmony with the Earth’s wisdom and intelligence.

The Earth already holds the seeds of the future and the new templates that help us calibrate to what’s possible beyond our imagining.Our work is to listen, to sense, and to call forward what is ready to emerge. But this requires willingness and trust—trust in ourselves and our bodies, trust in the subtle, and trust in the subtle ways of knowing that move us beyond stuckness and into what’s truly available for us.

Inside of Weavers I, we equip you with the skill to manifest new personal realities from the integrated body-soul codex.

You will learn the basics of reality mechanics (through an eco-somatic lens) to support yourself to thrive in your human experience through the waves of change that are happening on Earth.

Inside of this Immersion, you will focus on manifesting trackable, tangible change in one of the following areas:

* Increase in Confidence and Magnetism — Amplify your natural capacity to attract opportunities, people, and abundance to your field.

* Increase Your Income or Revenue — Unlock substantial growth in your self-leadership and financial resources. Expand your capacity to both receive and hold more wealth / revenue.

* Expand your Relational Capacity — Deepen your capacity to attract truly respectful, reciprocal, whole, and fulfilling relationships and emotional connections.

Inside of Weavers I, You Receive…

* A Sealed, Held, and Intimate Container

* 3 x 90 min Group Calls Per Month

* Opportunities to Reflect and Integrate Together

* Resources + Tools for Supporting Your Process

Our Schedule

Orientation will be held on May 4th at 10:00 a.m. PST. All other calls will be held every first, second, and third Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. PST from May to July, 2025.

What People are Saying about Weavers

“During our time together, I had some really interesting insights on the Futurewriting process. I started playing with the idea of what it would be like if I decided that I already have my desire, coming from a place of wholeness, rather than feeling like I need it to complete me.

I’m a huge reader of Neville Goddard and other teachers from the New Thought Movement, and I’ve never thought about it this way before—thinking from a space of wholeness rather than from the future self perspective.

Now, I understand I can think from the present moment, as if I’m already whole. And if I don’t know what that feels like, I can just imagine it, decide from there, and create the bridges.” — Jean B.

“I didn’t have the initiations before to prepare my nervous system and internal systems to hold the kind of work I want to step into. And it’s not just about the depth of the work—it’s also about the systems, the people on my team, and everything else that goes into running a business. I didn’t fully grasp how much I needed to be able to hold until now.

Over the last eight weeks, I’ve experienced deep grief and allowed myself to be with what is while continuing to show up. That alone has been transformative—this shifting of timelines and showing myself what I am truly capable of. I’m no longer crumbling or blocking the world out. I’ve had moments of being deep in it, but I also recorded a podcast, showed up for this space, and taught in an online container, as well as in my friends' online community.

When I sat with this, I realized I’m already stepping into the timeline I was calling in just two months ago. I’m doing it by continuing to show up, allowing myself to expand, and seeing it as layers peeling away—each layer revealing more capacity for growth. It’s been beautiful to witness myself in this process.”

— Briana A.

“The reason I came here was to generate more revenue in my business, but my real struggle has been putting myself out there. I wanted to feel more confident, more magnetic. What has been holding me back is my fear of being disliked, criticized, or just being seen in general.

What I also want to mention is that I ended up focusing a lot on my relationships as well. There's also a fear of being judged for the decisions I feel I need to make.

Now, I feel like I'm in a space of really owning what I want, even if what I have is already good.

I’m learning to do this without thinking that I’m being “too much”—because I’ve internalized this message that I want too much, or that I have high expectations.”

— Brooke C.

I showed up to this space wanting to open up to more love in my life and reconnect with my essence. It’s incredible to realize that when I can love myself through all of my phases, even in the hardest places, everything shifts.

This container has allowed me to drop back into my body, listen deeply, and ask the Earth for help. I’ve asked these incredible forces around us to guide me back to myself and show me what I haven’t been seeing. The changes I’ve experienced in the last two months are remarkable... it makes me wonder what I was missing before I became deliberately tuned in!

— Echo

So many creatives and entrepreneurs are looking for certainty, fool proof strategies, and the perfect solution to their problems, but the truth is that certainty and “fool proof” is not what Spring is here to offer.

Spring thresholds challenge us to break our rules and bring our bellies to the Earth. They challenge us to warm our bodies in the sunlight and to get inspired by the process, not the outcome.

Inside This Episode, We Explore

* Exploring what it means to channel the Earth, going beyond the spiritual hacks and surface-level practices, into deep relationship and dialogue.

* How the Earth speaks through sensation, rhythm, and desire and why attunement invites us into a romance with the spirit of the Earth and not just intellectual understanding.

* The spirit of extraction in modern manifestation practice and how we've been conditioned to approach creation from a place of extraction rather than true relationship with the Earth soul and reciprocity.

* Why grief, descent, and cycles matter in creation and how the laws of regeneration teach us to craft vision in ways that are in harmony with the deeper rhythms of life.

* How to move beyond force and control and step into vision as a co-creative, embodied practice of living from the level of your Soul.

Join Me for a Free Workshop

This Friday, March 7th, I’ll be diving deeper into this in my free workshop on Channeling with the Earth.

This two-hour workshop is for reclaiming our ways of knowing, sensing, and scrying new futures—not as hobbies, not as something to keep in the shadows, but as a primary source of creation, leadership, and discernment.

You’ll Walk Away With:

🌀 A Clearer Sense of What’s Calling You ForwardYou already feel the shift. This workshop will help you clarify what’s emerging for you—whether in your creative work, leadership, relationships, or personal path.

🌀 A Practice for Deep ListeningAttunement isn’t passive—it’s a skill. You’ll learn how to listen beyond logic, beyond noise, and into the subtle signals that reveal what is needed now.

🌀 Trust in Your Own KnowingYou don’t have to second-guess what you sense. This workshop will help you reclaim confidence in your intuition, your instincts, and your ability to move in alignment with what is real (even when it’s unseen).

🌀 A Way of Creating That Doesn’t Require ForceWhether you’re building something or simply navigating life, you’ll leave with a new way of moving—one that is rooted in flow, reciprocity, and the intelligence of the Earth’s field rather than push, mind, and struggle.

🌀 A Connection to Others Who Are ListeningYou’re not the only one feeling this. You’ll step into a space with others who are also tuning in, sensing, and shaping what’s next.

🌀 A Bridge into Ongoing Depth WorkThis is more than a one-time experience. Channeling the Earth is an entry point into a larger practice—one that can continue inside of one of our offerings if you choose to step further into this work.

"To all ancient peoples, the Earth was alive, a great animal inhabited by a life-spirit, or "soul-substance". All phenomena were manifestations of this divine force, and afterdeath all forms returned to this source before passing into another animate existence. The Earth Spirit was the "central transformer" of all life-energies into the multiplicity of life-forms, all protoplasmically connect with each other as in the same body, the same imagination."Earth Spirit, Serpent Spiral, and Blind SpringsThe Great Cosmic Mother by Monica Sjoo & Barbara Mor

Are you the Dreamer Archetype? Take the Visionary Archetypes Quiz here to find out.

The Visionary Archetypes are your guides on the journey of bringing your vision to life. They show you how to step into creative self-leadership—not by following someone else's rules, but by trusting your unique way of creating change in your corner of the world.

Think of these archetypes as different chapters in your story of visionary growth. Each one teaches you something essential about yourself and your vision. As you move through them, you're not just building something external—you're growing into a fuller version of who you're meant to be.

Today, we're exploring the Dreamer archetype, the springtime energy of vision. We'll look at what makes Dreamers unique, what lights them up, what keeps them up at night, and how they can best nurture their gifts.

Whether you're just starting your journey or finding yourself in a new beginning, the Dreamer's wisdom has something powerful to offer you.

How to Know You are the The Dreamer

The Wild-Hearted Creative, the Visionary, and the Seer

The Dreamer is the imaginative creative who sees beyond what is—they see the future potential of what could be, even when it feels distant or impossible. The Dreamer is inspired by possibility and new ideas, helping you to imagine a world that is soul-resonant and aligns with your deepest desires.

But sometimes, despite all of the potential that the Dreamer can see, the idea of stepping into the realm of actually building the vision can feel quite big. The act can feel terrifying, lonely, and even foolish.

The Dreamer has a lot of questions to answer as they move through the visionary process.

Questions such as…

Will I allow myself to begin? Will I allow myself to be seen?Will I allow myself to attempt to articulate and share what I see?

How do I start when everything feels so big?Am I really the one to bring this vision forward?What if I'm not ready yet?How do I break down this big vision into *actual steps*?Am I creative enough to do this?

Archetypes are the original patterns of human experience—universal symbols and stories that live within our collective consciousness.

They're more than abstract concepts; they're living blueprints that help us understand our journey and navigate transformation. When we recognize these patterns within ourselves, we gain access to ancient wisdom that makes the path ahead clearer, especially when we're bringing bold visions to life.

”All of the most powerful ideas in history go back to archetypes.” — Carl Jung

Think of archetypes as stories your soul already knows—patterns of being that reveal themselves exactly when we need their particular medicine.

The Four Faces of Vision

In our work with visionaries and conscious creators, we've discovered four primary archetypes that guide the journey of bringing dreams into reality. Each carries its own wisdom, its own medicine, and its own unique way of dancing between the worlds of dreaming, visioning, and manifestation.

The Dreamer → Keeper of Possibility

The Dreamer sees what others cannot yet see—new worlds, new ways of being, new possibilities for our collective future. Their power lies in the liminal spaces between what is and what could be. Like the energy of springtime and the subtle, intuitive directions of Spirit, they carry the sacred fool's ability to imagine beyond boundaries, knowing anything is possible.

What if the power of story was not just in helping us access our capacity to imagine the futures we desire, but to craft them as well? This is what we explore in the Inner Circle.

The Risk-Taker → The Initiate and Rebel

When the Dreamer's vision takes root, it's the Risktaker who transforms possibility into reality through bold action. With the fierce determination of Summer's fullness and the body-full, instinctual direction of Earth, they channel the Wild One—that part of us deeply connected to our indigeneity, radical inherent belonging, and sensuous nature. They teach us that our deepest truths, even our wounds, can fuel powerful forward motion.

The Magician → Seer of Cycles and Systems

The Magician understands that every ending carries seeds of beginnings. Working with the energies of Autumn and the slow, poetic directions of Soul, they help us navigate the necessary deaths and rebirths that any vision requires. They see the golden thread and the practical systems required to connect vision to reality, showing us how to alchemize our challenges into opportunities.

The Weaver → Steward of Wholeness

The Weaver sees and nurtures the relationships between all things. Working with the dark of Winter's wisdom, the Weaver seeks direction not just from themselves, but from the wider web of relations — the Soul of the Earth, the Stars, the Ancestors, and Elders — all in service to their mythocultural role and the work they feel their soul is here to accomplish at the societal level. The Weaver helps us understand that true vision isn't just about individual success—it's about finding our place in the larger story.

The Visionary Archetypes as “Seasons” of Vision

Each archetype also represents a season of the vision development process. Just as nature moves through distinct phases of growth and rest, our creative process follows similar rhythms:

* Spring, the Season of the Dreamer: A time of pure possibility, the discovery of one’s medicine, and divine inspiration

* Summer, the Season of the Risktaker: A period of passionate action, initiating new direction, and cultivating embodied knowing.

* Autumn, the Season of the Magician: A phase of deep transformation, systems development, attunement to personal power, and path correction.

* Winter, the Season of the Weaver: A season of deep integration, sacred service, and grounded reality creation.

Understanding which season you're in can help you honor your natural rhythms and work with, rather than against, the current phase of your vision's evolution.

Why Understanding Your Archetype Matters

Knowing your primary visionary archetype isn't about putting yourself in a box—it's about understanding the unique medicine you bring to the world and what works for the season you’re currently in. When you can learn to work with your archetype, or your season of vision, you:

* Move through creative blocks with greater ease

* Access deeper wells of inspiration and wisdom

* Create from a place of authentic personal power

* Build businesses and projects that feel congruent with your soul's essence

Discovering Your Archetype

Your visionary archetype isn't just something you choose—it's a soul-level, metapattern that you remember. It's already encoded in the way you naturally approach creation, change, and growth.

Take a moment to reflect:

* Which archetype are you naturally occupying while bringing ideas to life?

* Which archetype / season most reflects your current relationship with your vision?

* How do you currently navigate the unknowns of creation?

* “Personal Growth Won’t Save Us” with Stephen Jenkinson

* Die Wise: A Manifesto of Sanity and Soul by Stephen Jenkinson

The honest Creative Process always, always leads us into the underworld — not as punishment or evidence of some kind of internal instability, but because it is underneath the “World” as we know it that culture begins. Our “World” is the product of what was once inseminated in the deep, dark black of imaginal. Someone imagined from the thick of the Underworld the futures that we are currently living. This place underneath the “World”, is where our known examples of the manifested imagination begins.

[Like seeds in the warm wet soil. Always, like seeds in the soil.]

When we avoid the Underworld parts of the Creative Process, we create hydroponic visionary realities that are robust with green, chloryphyllic ideas and utopias, but they are often not strong enough, nor tested enough, to withstand nature’s storms and the many seasons of vision, creative process, and life.

“We are a growth addicted, limit defying culture. And we are trying to live a hydroponic spirituality — a spirituality that has no earth.” Stephen Jenkinson

This Underworld reality is not necessarily a place of wrath, forgottenness, and rage as Abramhamic religions have taught us, but a place where darkness, fire, water, fungi, and bacterial cultures thrive and bring texture, flavor, spice, and depth to our conscious experiences of the Upper World, our physical domain.

Thank you for reading with us! Subscribe to the Inner Circle Newsletter below.

The Underworld is what holds our imaginal cells, our stories, our procreative energies, our context, our myths. When we learn how to engage the Underworld, we receive our vision like a fresh first bleed of maturation or like a first wet dream. It’s in the Underworld that our internal eyes open and we learn how to see in the dark. The Underworld is where Vision is born. It is where our vision comes to life. And when vision comes to life, our drive and imaginal responsibility also comes online.

This is because passage through the Underworld is an initiatory experience. It is a sign of maturation when we can make it through to the other side of “death”, the liminal, the most bottom part of the Underworld experience, and be granted our internal eyes, our most inward gaze through which we learn to really see and feel the relevancy of the immaterial reality. This passage is the cthonic necessity that adds flavor, texture, rootedness, presence, and depth to the creative and / or entrepreneurial experience.

And if you want the kind of presencing, reach, magnetism, and / or deep inner prayer life that no one will see, passage through the underworld is a necessity. Touching, feeling, and experiencing your darkness and your wilder parts is part of the maturation of your channel, your voice, and your vision.

The Underworld is where Vision is born, it is where vision comes to life. And when vision is born, so too is born our creative responsibility.

Vision is born from the cthonic necessity.

My Qi Gong teacher describes the cthonic necessity as the thick, unhurried, unambitious energy of Yin. It is the deepest death. It is the soul descent. It is the nothingness, the unformed, the uncarved block. It is where our energy is thick, unlabeled, and unnameable. And it is through dwelling with the cthonic necessity that we are granted passage into true, soul-level vision.

This means that your true soul’s Vision comes from walking through the dirth and the deaths of the Underworld. Your highest soul’s calling comes from going to the deep, dark, unnameable black of yourself and being willing to not know anything beyond what you feel.

It comes from walking through the dark. It comes from saying hello to your inner wilderness, the thick, alive, darkness of the spirit. It comes from seeing and experiencing yourself without the contours of light. It comes from contending with your loud, anxious, restless human thoughts. It comes from feeling the vibrancy of silence. The wisdom of the Void.

Vision comes when you’ve met your unknowing, your grief, your shadow, your abandoned parts with gentle, loving curiosity and kindness.

Vision is born from the cthonic necessity of descending to the soul-level parts of your humanity. Vision is a neutral occurrence. It is just what happens when we are moving through and learning from the dark.

If you want to access a vision that does not compromise your soul’s essence, that has the potential to pierce through the noise and touch someone else’s soul or make impact in even the most subtle of ways, you have go through with the cthonic necessity of deep world travel. You have to allow yourself to commune with your shadow and to touch your subconscious, your void places, your dark.

You have to learn who you are when stripped of convenient, protective personality constructs, ego stories, and clever shapeshifting identities. You have to locate your backbone when the world and all the structures you thought were home and safety have been stripped away. You have to learn how to get still enough to listen, quiet enough to hear your own soul whisper your own soul’s true name. You have to get low enough to feel, see, smell, hear, touch your body and the true, burning coals of fire living beneath your skin.

Vision comes when we have learned how to listen, how to witness, how to see in the dark.

This season, inside of the Vision Society, we’re exploring the topic of Vision and the Underworld.
