Pollinating is the joy of sharing vision and ideas which inspire others, shining a light on the potential beauty which can be created through individual and collective action.

Pollinators share the nectar of their lives with each other. The imaginal Map is a digital portal to a visual global community, illuminating the millions of people shining as beacons of light across the Earth. It is an opportunity to be seen, connect with others and evoke the collective power of our like-minded and wildly diverse human family.

“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as crazy, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

Jack Kerouac

There are three fundamental questions a Pollinator asks…

Why?

The taproot of our life is Passion. By discovering our passion we are sustained in our work and actions. By answering the question ‘why?’ we can remain connected to a powerful, grounded source in and of our lives.

“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”

Summertime, Mary Oliver

What?

The nectar of our life is Inspiration – by being inspired our spirit shines. Knowing the nectar of our lives feeds this inspiration and sustains us as we navigate our way through life. By answering the question ‘what?’, we can inspire ourselves and each other.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us”

Marianne Williamson

How?

The honey of our life is creative Expression. The culmination of the creative process allows the engagement of generosity and gratitude. By answering the question ‘how?’, we are able to share our ‘honey in the heart.’

Martin Prechtel, the wonderful artist, author, teacher and healer who carries the wisdom of the Mayan people talks of this with such eloquence in his wonderful book, ‘Long life, Honey in the Heart.’

“Be blessed with long life, honey in the heart,  no evil and thirteen thank-you’s”
