Thanks Neil for your feedback. My experience, however, is that there is so much focus and media on collapse these days. It's becoming the popular buzz word in many circles, to rally people around crisis language. In my opinion, there is too little focus, practice, and understanding of the imaginal transformative capacity of living systems (including ourselves) and too much focus on what may appear outwardly as collapse and death. I have an immense trust in life, and we honestly don't know how our Earth is balancing, evolving, learning, and healing - and we with Her. The focus of my work and practice is rather on jumping into that "gap" to access our imaginal capacities in ways we haven't done collectively before. To meet life in the evolutionary impulse for renewal, and make space within for how this in-forms and emerges as my, and our, next steps and insights. A practice of deep listening to the flows of life and sensing of more subtle shifts, which is often missing in scenario planning of collapse. Slightly different focus, and intentionally so. That is what the Third Way is all about for me - holding space together for the intersections between life and death - and that space between life and death. Of course the "collective acknowledgement of collapse" serves a role in that too, as you suggested - but there is more, much more... at play. 😊
