Communal Reverie
Collective Imaginal Attunement
Graphics inspired by the art of Cheryl Hsu
Communal Reverie is a practice of collective imaginal attunement. It is a comparatively rare modality of practice insofar as it focuses on the dyad or group, rather than the individual, as a distinctly relevant and coherent unit for approaching imaginal encounters. Part of this entails the practice of presencing, orienting to group fields as amplifiers of originary creativity inaccessible to individuals alone.
The unfolding of Communal Reverie has been a deepening experiment in pragmatic participatory spirituality. Variations of the practice engage collective imaginal attunement as a potential pathway for accessing distinct modes of collective wisdom that may support our creative engagement with the unique challenges and opportunities of our era.
Communal Reverie currently has two modalities:
Intersecting perspectives that have informed my own ways of thinking about the imaginal.
Major figures transmitting thought streams that have informed my work with the imaginal.
Friends of mine who are also generating bodies of work related to the imaginal.
