Greenlight 2014-2020
GreenLight is a place where the archetypal structures that underpin life arrive, each time, through the opening ceremony of the group, and guide us down and in. Great hilarity and terrifying leaps, both, arrive beneath our feet. The work is surprising and reaches into some of the most imprisoning complexes of our time. Green, the power of Genesis, arrives through any previously believed obstacle. The group works in the borders of consciousness. Teaching and Conversation.
GreenLight met 3 times/year; 2 weekends/year at our retreat center in Maine and once as part of the annual 3 Lights Retreat.
Will you leave the routine of your life and your dream? To love what is holy and singular and waiting and simpler, truly simpler, even than rain? And God said “I was a hidden treasure and I longed to be known so I created the World”

lantern 2015-2021
Lantern is hidden. A light hidden in the night of our collective psyche that bids certain wayfarers to leave home. This group travels together, as scribe into the unknown riverbeds of our western consciousness. We no longer know the difference between imagination and fantasy and those who knew how to travel between these worlds in service to the soul of humanity and the Earth are very few now. To be received by the inner world requires training the imagination and a spiritual practice of atonement. This group will include study and writing as part of the work.
To be born into a time when the sacred root of life has been severed requires facing ourselves, in ways we have not heretofore imagined. The ecological extinction that we are living in is only one small part of the spiritual extinction.
Creative Imagination is the sixth sense. It can only be given. Its purpose is to merge one day with the hidden Light of Truth. And like a bee carries the yellow grains of pollen on her back, we return here, pollinators, with Love having washed our skin and eyes and minds. How Love enters this world, on our backs. How the performance, the ceremony of human consciousness is watched over. Wayfarers in search of pure water. Without the yearning of these travelers, meaning in this world ends.
Lantern met 3 times each year, first in Townshend, Vt and finishing in Whitefield, Me.

streetlamp 2016-2022
Streetlamp happens in the theater of the public domain. We work inside a 7-year "performance". Musicians, Dancers, Surgeons, Writers, Sculptors... a call to those artists who are working to see and hear what is coming. Those who feel a requirement to respond to the greying of our world. The Muse waits. The Medicine waits. The magic of creation, the sacred intelligence inside life, weaves stories of love back into life.
The work purifies and releases the imagination from the confines of this culture. Streetlamp calls to those artists, those human beings who cry out for Beauty, for training and companionship in the hidden chambers of Love, the original home of the Muse.
A conversation in the middle of the night in the center of lonely in the rage of waste and every unspeakable word. A conversation that matters. That is given, not taken. That is given back, to the weaver’s hands. A conversation around which the city falls. Where all that we use to enforce our differences falls into rubble. A conversation that defuses the bomb secretly, that addresses the rose, once again, as the secret She is.
Streetlamp met 3 times/year; 2 weekends/year in NYC (and on Zoom during the pandemic) (and locally in NYC we hope) and once as part of the annual 3 Lights Retreat.
