Emergence / 5

In an unraveling world we must begin to reimagine our most foundational ways of being. And what is more foundational than Time? Separated from the fabric of the cosmos, the vast mystery of Time has been distilled into a tool of control. But what kind of Time listens and moves in tune with the Earth; travels not in a straight line, but in a circle? Time, our first hardcover edition, journeys through the many landscapes of Time: deep time, geological time, kinship time, ancestral time, sacramental time. If we can recognize a different kind of Time, can we come to dwell within it?
Exploring these questions through poetry, essays, interviews, and art, this volume invites us to imagine a Time and space where ecology, culture, and spirituality are again woven together.

Emergence Magazine is an online publication with an annual print edition. It has always been a radical act to share stories during dark times. They are regenerative spaces of creation and renewal. As we experience the desecration of our lands and waters, the extinguishing of species, and a loss of sacred connection to the earth, we look to emerging stories. In them we find the timeless connections between ecology, culture, and spirituality.
Emergence Magazine is an editorially independent initiative of Kalliopeia Foundation. We are located on the unceded ancestral lands of the Coast Miwok people of present-day Marin County.
