My creativity is definitely returning. The stove is warming, the water is starting to boil, the pot starting to rattle! Creations are brewing. I have lots of exciting movies, writings and mandalas to post this coming week.
But, before I post any fancy-dancy art, I’d like to start simple. With a sentence. But this sentence, I didn’t create myself. It was co-created!
Oh… co-creation is so much more fun than solitary creation! I have been discovering this over the last two years, (i.e. the 1Mandala) and even more so in the last sixth months. Co-creation is especially wonderful when it is between you and your beautiful lover.
Before I get to the sentence, some reflections on this idea of supra-sexual co-creation. I am feeling there’s a lot to this. Ive been thinking about it alot lately. This is an important idea.
Barbara Marx Hubbard writes that humanity is undergoing a shift in the way that sexual energy creates. For millions of years, sexual attraction has inspired pro-creation. Yet, as humanity hits a point where population is dangerously counter productive to the species and planet, a new way to channel this creativity is evolving. This energy can be harnessed to inspire lovers to new heights of persinal discovery, brave new ways of harmonious living and brilliant new humanity-positive creations. The attraction between a couple inspires them to discover who they really are and what their personal passions are. ‘Vocational arousal’ Marx-Hubbarb calls it. Genius becomes aroused. The energy of the attraction is so strong that it helps the individuals transcend the old generational, cultural, and ideological patterns that have shackled humanity too long. Patterns that would have otherwise hindered them from truelly embracing the call of their hearts, discovering their vocation, their calling, their life’s purpose and… following it.
Am I a little overly ebulent? Perhaps! Maybe I am just excited to get to Paris and launch back in to following the call of my heart. Or maybe its because in this I too see “a way of transcending many of the premodern, modern, and postmodern notions of what it means to be a man and a woman.” Something that points “to a natural, unpremeditated, and spontaneous expression of a liberated masculinity and a liberated femininity.” See the full interview text here.
So, that sentence!
Working simultaneously on web based speed sheets and whiteboards, while talking on Skype, Abby (in Paris) and I (in Ottawa, planning to go to Paris) brainstormed all sorts of ideas and dreams and passions we have that we can co-create together in the coming months.
We came up with many ideas and one focused statement of intention for them all that resonates deeply with us both. Here it is:
“We dream of a stustainable and enjoyable and love-filled time together in Paris. We dream of co-creating a prosperous way of doing the things we love and fully enjoying Paris. We dream of being amazing partners so that we can maximize our health, our living, our consciousness, and our gift to the planet.”
You can also read it on her blog too. How cool is that? We could give a lesson or two to The Secret people on manifesting– the supra sexual way!
