Community of Practice

Do you know those moments of magic and grace when you feel the Earth speaking straight to you? Perhaps Earth speaks with a message of healing, through an animal teacher or stone being, or perhaps with a transmission straight to your body that can only be known somatically. We have found that these moments come most generously when we have been most in need of them—when overwhelm or grief have been rising from the depths, or our readiness for change burns like a bonfire.

Here we find ourselves, dear siblings, going into 2026 more ready for change than we have ever been. How are you holding it?—this possibility for us to be midwives to something so much more beautiful to birth from the ashes, while also being nurses and warriors for our suffering siblings?

We (Jane and Marga) have been sitting in this paradox together for some time, utterly in touch—through our human hearts—with the suffering and horror, and also—through the blessings of our spiritual lineages—brought back over and over to the immense healing possibility and incomprehensible love and support here for us at this time on Earth. 

If you too are feeling this paradox and longing to know how to proceed, we wish to invite you to join us on this Year of Listening. In our own listening for guidance, we have been steered time and again toward convening a Community of Active Earth Listeners—people who are, like us, moved to be part of the story of evolution, but know deeply that we must listen at each step of the way to Earth herself, great dreamer and strategist, giver of the ways, means and new stories.

We will gather throughout 2026 to listen together for the Earth’s strategy that is moving through each of us, and into our collective space. We take grateful inspiration from our spiritual teachers and lineages, building on the experiences we have been given in deep Earth and spirit communion. We also wish to build something that we feel is trying to come from the future to be born amongst us now—councils of skilled listeners, attuned to the healing trajectory shown by Spirit and ready and willing to do our best to invite in our spirit teachers to show us the way. 

We know that the Moon has her teachings for us, so does the Ocean, the whales, the mountains and the forests. What will these teachers teach us if we gather in a sacred way to listen, and to weave our learning together? We humbly know that no one individual can bring forward the fullness of Earth’s guidance and strategy, but we also know that every human heart has unique gifts as a channel. 

In 2026 we gather to listen to Earth, to hear one another’s messages, to feel the teaching woven by us as a circle, and to hold one another in the mystery of how to move forward with our hearts’ ears open to the ongoing guidance of Earth, our sleeves rolled up when we need to get to work, and the patience and grace to heal when that is called for.
