Villa Unspunnen, Interlaken, Switzerland · August 25–29, 2025 A Living Field for the Integral City There are moments when a gathering becomes more than a retreat. More than a program.

There comes a moment in every cycle of transformation when preparation gives way to presence. Not because the work is finished — but because the threshold has revealed itself. As we approach the December Solstice of 2025, it is increasingly clear that this year has not been a sequence of disconnected events, but a [...]
By the time we reached the September Equinox of 2025, the question was no longer whether our systems were breaking down — but whether we could see clearly what the breaking was making possible.

Two perspectives seemed to mirror and amplify each other: Karen O’Brien’s invitation to see ourselves as fractals of change and my own exploration of AQtivating Soul Power for cities in crisis. Though spoken in different idioms, [...]
Microcosm in Service to Gaia What distinguishes Ecovillage Findhorn is not just its longevity or its reputation as a pioneering eco-village. What makes it truly significant is its ongoing evolution into a regenerative learning community — a microcosm of what human settlements could become in service to Gaia.
