#8 Growth, Crisis, Breakdown, & Renaissance - The Patterns of Civilization with Jake and Maren Death in The Garden

This week on the podcast, Jake and Maren discuss the recent storming of the US Capitol, Charles Eisenstein’s “Story of Separation” as described in The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know is Possible and The Ascent of Humanity, and how we move forward in these uncertain times through the framework of embracing spirituality and interconnectedness. Additionally, we discuss the “Cult of Personality” we are witnessing currently with Trumpism, the pathological “metanarratives” our society functions under, the importance of mythology, and how through shadow integration (individually and collectively) we may be able to move forward toward the world we long for.
