-
An emerging practice...
Communal Reverie can be understood as a “We-Space” practice that brings together principles and protocols adapted from Collective Presencing and imaginal practice (examples of imaginal practice include Active Imagination, Embodied Imagination, Soulmaking Dharma). -
Of the Zeitgeist...
Communal Reverie is a reflection of an important current within the spirit of the times. This is a turn toward what Elizabeth Debold and Thomas Steininger have called a “post-personal culture,” and what cultural philosopher Jean Gebser described as the “supersession of the ego.” It is one of many emerging practice modalities aiming to reach beyond the modern emphasis on individuality toward sources of collective wisdom. -
An experiment...
The practice is very much an experimental endeavor.Only recently have Communal Reverie sessions incorporated guiding intentions, with the aim of discovering what forms of insight and inspiration Communal Reverie yield in service of specific creative callings, visions, and projects. See the Practice Primers below for more details…
