Dear Spiritual Community

dear healers, men’s workers, witches, herbalists, and the like,

Hot take: our work is needed out in the world more than we are giving it—and more than just giving it to each other.

Picture this:

The men’s work we do, but in colleges, for young men who have been given a compass for masculinity that creates civil and social unrest. What if we were able to change just one man’s life, redirect his compass? What if that man becomes responsible for city planning, or becomes a local politician?

The women’s work in middle schools, for young girls who are just beginning their moon cycle, learning that the rhythm of their cycle perfectly aligns with the phases of the moon.

Breathwork in the inner city.

Meditation in hospitals.

Ecstatic dance as a high school elective.

Plants and herbalism as an after-school program for elementary school students.

And so on.

Many of us spend a lot of time with each other and not enough time out in the world.

Our values and ways of being are often so far removed from the mainstream world. 

The mystics and the misfits were once killed for being such, and that fear still lives in our bones.

But we are also of this world.

For once upon a time, we were the ones who consulted kings and queens. In fact, we still do. I know two people in our community who have been recruited by the FBI to remote view. They both said no.

We are important. We are vital to the pulse of humanity.

Let us resource with one another so that we can be more present in the world.

Personally, I’ve divested a lot from our spiritual communities in order to bridge my work with the rest of the world. In the last year, I’ve been able to work with organizations and businesses traditionally labeled “corporate” - people who are out in this world, wanting to make a difference, yet who may not function spiritually in the same ways we do.

I’m continuing to do that bridging while staying resourced in community.

DM me if you want to talk about this, or if you'd like to develop a business plan for taking your work into the world. You are needed out there. Also, that’s where the money is. eeded out there. Also, that’s where the money is.
