Though most of us are now raised under an institutionalized, empire-approved form of either (monotheistic) religion or aspirituality, many of us still feel some more-ness exists in our experience of the universe. This week, though we might lack the cultural and social means to grasp and explain it fully, we’ll explore that more-ness in the world through the perspective of spirit.

If we step away from the dominant culture’s compulsion to classify, measure, quantify, and know everything it can, we find ourselves in the realm of mystery. There is a whole other side of the world that cannot be known, but only marveled at and dumbfounded by. There is a whole other kind of knowing not ground in causal certainty, but a certain kind of intuiting, or feeling, or experiencing. Join us this week as we explore the mysteries in the world around us and appreciate the mysteries in our own lives.

Generative
In this final generative EcoGathering of the lunar cycle on Commoning, we will unveil the beginnings of EcoGather’s digital learning commons to receive feedback and proactive input from our community of learners on how best to develop and manage the space to be most useful and enlivening to its users. We will practice applying what we have learned throughout this lunar cycle to a real-life example.
