Cosmic Creativity: Co-Creating the World We Live In
“The universe is a vast, unfolding story of creativity—and you are one of its newest expressions.”
The universe is a dance of creativity, and each of us moves as a vital part of its rhythm. We create with the cosmos, through the imaginal realm, and in relationship with all that has shaped us.
In this time of unraveling and renewal, imagination becomes sacred ground — the meeting place of soul and cosmos.
Join Lauren Artress and Catherine Anderson for a journey into the living conversation between creativity and spirit, where uncertainty itself becomes the threshold to transformation.
Inspired by Brian Swimme’s vision of a universe alive with allurement, creativity, and communion, and by Diarmuid O’Murchu’s vision of a living cosmos ever birthing itself into being, we will explore imagination as the deep pulse of our becoming — a wellspring of resilience, wonder, and hope.
Through shared dialogue, small-group reflection, daily SoulCollage® practice, and a private labyrinth walk in the luminous space of Chartres Cathedral - a place where human creativity and cosmic radiance meet - we will explore creativity as the universe expressing itself through us. Surrounded by centuries of devotion and light, we remember our original vocation: to say yes to the Great Work of co-creation — shaping a more conscious, compassionate, and vibrant world.
SoulCollage® is an intuitive collage process which connects you to your inner wisdom and a deeper understanding of your place in the cosmos. You do not need any prior experience in making SoulCollaeg® cards. All supplies and a generous supply of evocative images will be provided. Each participant will also receive their own book filled with images created specially for this retreat.
This is an invitation to honor the sacred impulses that seek expression through you, to follow their threads of allurement, and to live as a co-creator in the ever-evolving story of creation. This pilgrimage is for anyone who senses that their creativity is part of something larger—a force of emergence, transformation, and possibility rising within the great story of the universe. Please join us for this sacred pilgrimage into the living field where cosmology, imagination, and the creative soul awaken one another into new ways of seeing and creating.
