Hi there,

In the world of Dreamfruit, we operate within a frame story: The living Earth has been imperiled, and our creative nature is rising up. This frame helps us understand the Lunar Tales we tell moon by moon, gives context for the whole strange adventure, and makes the Dreamfruit worldview explicit so that we can adjust course as needed.

The thing about a worldview is that it often runs quietly in the background, shaping everything—what you notice, what you believe is possible, the choices you make each day, whose voices matter. And, while the Dreamfruit guiding story is made explicit, in our day-to-day lives we simply can't afford to leave our personal worldviews unexamined anymore.

This is a time of broken, outworn worldviews. And when a worldview starts to wear out it's a bit like an outdated operating system—the software gradually stops working before we finally start re-evaluating. We see it all around... an untended, unconscious worldview can break the world.

What We're Working With

Our current operating system—what I call The Great Forgetting—is built on separation. It's the story that says we can endlessly control, extract, and discard without consequence. This paradigm lives at the root of our collective "crisis-bouquet" of climate change, war, and all the rest.

But here's the thing: we have the power to change the guiding stories at the center of our awareness. And when we do, we change what feels possible.

The Medicine in the Stories

Lately, I've been turning to the old stories for guidance. The ones about women as weavers, protectors, voices of justice. Stories that ask: What if women's voices are sacred and central to our survival? What if true power looks like connection instead of domination?

I believe that stories are a psychic technology for empathy, healing, and choice. Through them, we can imagine interrelatedness instead of extraction; we can choose ways of being that protect life and help us thrive; we can call women into the truthtelling circle.

Why This Course, Why Now

Offering The Great Remembering course is my current answer to the question: Where is mine to stand?

Over a three-week period (October 23 - November 6), we'll work with spell, story, and symbol to see the obsolete operating system still running on default—and reclaim stories that can actually nourish you and the world. This is a mini-course, designed to be flexible with your schedule, meant as a very brief and very potent intervention.

If you're feeling the call to remember, I'd love to have you join us.

Yours on the journey,

P.S. I recorded an invitation for you. You can watch it here. Registration is open through October 13th.

If you know someone who is looking for ways to deepen their belonging with life on Earth, please share!
