Awakening the Dreamer,
Changing the Dream
Spring 2010

In the current atmosphere of chaos, confusion and fear, our challenge is to engage with life and fulfill our role in it. This is easier to do when you find the visions you hold an interal part of a loving community. The Pachamama Alliance grew out of the call of earth HerSelf--Pachamama--to the people of an indigenous dream culture--the Achuar of Ecuador. The Achuar called forth  collaboration with those in the Dreaming of the industrial West who had awakened to the devastation into which we were kprogrammed. We are committed to having there be enough for everyone. We know the relationships we construct are our true wealth: loving connection with Earth and Every Thing on Her.

The Awakening the Dreamer, Changing the Dream Symposium is a process through which people encounter a "blessed unrest" and become informed, hopeful, inspired and empowered to commit to actions to create a more just, sustainable, fulfilling world. Awakening, you learn to lean into The Wild Ride.

The Wild Ride begins when you decide to become your full Self and to embrace the parts of you still awaiting recognition and permission to expand. Wild Riders come together to give and receive support for their becoming. We practice together the powerful  tools of ancient traditions that are resurfacing today in fulfillment of prophecies and in response to the call to be the change we wish to see.  

We live in pivotal times. The collapse around us proves that the old ways are not working. We must be pro-active rather than re-active. Each positive, creative choice builds momentum that ripples out, joining other similar ripples that grow into waves nourishing the grass roots, helping them to flourish, making all our lives better.

Please check the Calendar for upcoming events at which we will share tools you can use to emerge ever more fully into who you want to be.

Wherever you are, whoever you are, may you know yourself to be an essential and well-loved part of the Oneness of the world we are dreaming, the world where everyone wins.

The Real Work

It may be that when we no longer know what to do,
we have come to our real work, and that
when we no longer know which way to go,
we have come to our real journey.
The mind that is not baffled is not employed.
The impeded stream is the one that sings.
