Geneen Marie Haugen, Ph.D. – Imagination and Reanimation of the World 

Saturday, February 18th, 2023. 1:00-4:00pm. ONLINE WORKSHOP

On Saturday, in the experiential workshop, “Imagination and the Reanimation of the World,” we’ll consider the possibility that all beings and presences are alive, intelligent, and saturated in subjectivity. We’ll explore how we might make ourselves more permeable to their dreams, as well as to what Thomas Berry called “the Dream of the Earth.” We’ll engage practices that can help erode our customary psychic habits enough to allow greater receptivity to the voices, images, and wisdom of our fellow inhabitants and of the planetary organism. We’ll consider – as poet A.R. Ammons writes – how to become more “available / to any shape that may be / summoning itself / through me / from the self not mine but ours.” Wild revelations that seem to emerge from something that is not quite – or not only – human may help us find our way through a necessary sea change in our relationship with Earth.
