From Breakdown to Breakthrough
A new perspective of the Cosmos, Earth, and our place in deeptime is urgently needed to navigate this pivotal moment. — Jennifer Morgan, President, Deeptime Network; and author, Universe Story Trilogy
A New Way of Being
What is a perspective and way of being that can help pave the way to a flourishing deep future? Seeing our place and role inside of deeptime, thinking long term with the whole in mind, and understanding the powers of Cosmogenesis are key. A creative, systems-orientation can inspire and support this pivotal evolutionary moment.
We are created in order to evolve the cosmos. — Maria Montessori
Introducing Four Big Ideas . . .
- Context: Orienting to the whole, a vast evolving universe.
- Matrix: Understanding our embeddedness, and radical relatedness, in a participatory universe.
- Subjectivity: (self organization, interiority) is inherent in everything in a Cosmogenetic universe.
- Action: Birthing the Ecozoic as a process of co-creation with our planet Earth.

Awareness that the universe is more Cosmogenesis than cosmos might be the greatest change in human consciousness . . . since the awakening of the human mind . . . — Thomas Berry, The Great Work
. . . with the Ecozoic and . . .
Thomas Berry suggested the name “Ecozoic” to define an era where humans live with mutually enhancing relationships with each other . . . and with the whole Earth community. He considered the successful emergence of the Ecozoic Era as the Great Work of our time.
. . . Diversity, Equity & Inclusion as Our Omega Point.
When we understand our deeptime context, radical relationality, subjectivity of the whole and everything, and action as participating in evolution . . . everything changes. We are empowered to work with larger forces to make DEI a reality for humans and all species.

Explore the universe from a Deeptime perspective that sees the cosmos as: 1) our largest context, a vast differentiating single entity; 2) our matrix, a communion of interconnected relationships; 3) subjective, a field of self-organizing creativity in which we’re embedded and have our being; and 4) a domain where action means participating in evolution. Explore the science and meaning of these four principles and how they provide a revolutionary approach to leadership, self-empowerment, and transformation.
Our Theory of Change . . .

- We trust and work with the creativity of the universe.
- We embody and fully express our gifts in the world.
- We draw on the wisdom of deeptime to create a flourishing deep future.

Love is the most powerful and still most unknown energy in the world. — Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Our Learning Management System
We use Sensei integrated with Buddypress so that participants can engage in asynchronous course discussions, and share resources, profiles, and information about their organizations. We’ve had experience using this technology with people of all levels of technical capability. If you have any questions, we’re right there to help you. All meetings are recorded. The course will remain open for one year so you can view recordings, stay in touch and continue to share thoughts and resources with others sharing the journey with you.
