How do we emerge into a new future from here?
In this week’s conversation with award-winning novelist, smallholder, contemporary shamanic trainer and host of the international chart-topping Accidental Gods podcast Manda Scott, we explore the edges of shaping the future of our wildest dreams.
‘The not knowing is what allows the space for the web of life to send the knowing in.’ and it is this not knowing that gives us room to dream, rise and change this system. ‘It's not predictable. If we can predict it, then it's not the new system, but we can take ourselves to the emergent edge of inter becoming, from which emergence into that new system is hopefully more likely than the chaos and extinction.’
We explore:
:: Why the emergence into a new system can feel unpredictable but wonderful
:: How to move from a trauma culture to an initiation culture
:: How to dream without constraints
:: What it looks like when 8.5 billion people feel belonging, connection, agency and live a life filled with meaning
:: How we as humans have the power to change and shape a new future
:: Why visions come at unexpected times
:: What happens when continually asking of the web of life, what do you want of me?
:: How to move away from the head mind and settle into the heart mind
:: How temporary shamanic practices help connect to the wonder and glory of the world
:: How habits done consciously become rituals
:: What the transformative journey of writing a book looks like
:: How the process of death can be a potential window into a new system
:: How to make governance into something that is generative and collaborative again
We hope this episode encourages you to explore deeper what invitations the web of life is making to you.
