Congratulations David on pulling these threads together; not such an easy thing to do when we ourselves are included in the darkness.

I feel that through community, both felt and lived in, lies our Aquarian way through.

To un-tie collective traumas and 'dead end streets' we have been taught to be real for so long, only through our bodies and minds uniting invisibly with intuition, integrity and creativity, do we run the chance of breathing.

Liberated to develop and use the paradoxical power of compassion for the forces of darkness.

Thanks for bringing such an important topic at this time when we see and hear evil so readily, which is hard for most to ever imagine.

Nowhere to hide when the lion comes at you.

Very thought provoking as usual David. Thank you.

Beautifully woven. Certainly the entropic trajectory needs to truly run its course before it fully turns inside-out. As I like to say, you can't fake it.

Yin and yang are always dynamically balanced, in every part of the hol. One way or another.

The difference is in the form the balance takes — how can it become beautiful?

I'm so appreciating this series, David, having finally caught up with it.

On the bouncy castle subject, one vivid childhood memory I have is of almost suffocating under a pile of other kids in one of the dips of such a castle at a local agricultural show on a very hot summer's day... So much for the softness and safety!

Hi David,

First of all what a fantastic essay (and series). I've just came across your writing now, and I'm glad I have, it definitely helps further articulate some thoughts I've had on the same matters.

There is a question I have for you. You privilege the creative human spirit above technology, and indicate that while technology may be counter to our evolution, it will serve as a catalyst for human change that'll drive us into the new age. You identify social media and AI in particular under this umbrella, I'm curious then why you would not also include blockchain.

Blockchain seems to be quite similar to the other technologies in that there is a large gulf between what they aim to do and what they actually do. This seems to be a theme with technology in general. For instance, you might refer to the massive resource consumption, encouragement of predatory behaviour through anonymity etc. Curious to hear your thoughts.

Hi David and All Others here.

I've just read through all of Navigating the Storm of Global Change, including the personal check-ins. This has been my introduction to your writing, David, and reading through has delivered me to a place of deep calm - the calm of coherence that can live at the heart of chaos. I look forward to the 4th essay and to connecting with the EarthRising community.

Many thanks and blessings....elenna rubin goodman

Hi David, some very deep thought provoking thinking, analysis, interpretation and strategising. It made me think, but I am still trying to grasp the multi dimensional / multi level concept in conjunction with opposites. Seems too much too understand in one reading.
