Sorcerer, Serpent and Vision Quest Tell A Story

Our task, as ChatPeople breakout group 2, is to create, write and tell a story invoking these characters. We had time for 3 tries, each getting better. The last time was, instead of ... Once upon a time in a city far away, a long time ago, in the future, they ... etc, Daniel, feeling/tuning into the trauma of the curse of ages, suggested, as our Shaman leader, to tell our part of the story as "I". This made a huge juicy difference energetically.



Story of The Curse

  • Setting the scene of story creation...
  • Dr Daniel, our group Shaman, beats a drum and guides us to tell our stories, as ...
  • The Serpent - Joan Arnott
  • The Sorcerer - Charlie Bensinger
  • Shannon McArthur I am Vision Quest
  • Julie the scribe (being a fast typo-ist), encourages you to ...
  • be sure to watch the videos also, of :
  1. ) Our group's story creation and
  2. ) Performance: Our Story of The Curse and other breakout groups stories - very creative!)


Our Breakout group circles created stories together about this experience on this last day of Cities Rising Week, about cities, and humanity rising. Ours was #2, The Story of the Curse, as follows


10:10:24 From RuthAnn Lenapehoking to Everyone : Yes, Beth, ensuring All Voices present Welcomes well balanced transitions

10:10:55 From Julie Wolf to Stanley Pokras (Host)(Direct Message) : co-host me again please
10:10:58 From Hugo Araujo to Everyone : I need to go with the family now. Love & Light to everyone… see you next time
10:11:44 From Marilyn Hamilton to Everyone : @hugo thanks so much
10:16:05 : ------- breakout begins - Room 2 Daniel - The Curse - Stories -------
10:16:20 : Serpent - Sorcerer - Vision
10:16:53 : what are your roles please?
10:16:56 : I am scribe
10:17:05 : we each write a part.
10:17:09 From Shannon McArthur to Everyone : I am Vision Quest
10:17:24 : Joan is Serpent (right?)
10:17:45 : Charlie - Sorcerer
10:18:15 : Once upon a time in a city long long in the future and past...
10:18:31 : We have 2 min to write our story.
10:18:57 : Shaman Daniel is drumming and starting the story about where/how the curse happened.
10:20:53 : Shaman leader says, we will go thru the 3 different people, the serpent, the sorcerer and the vision quest.
10:21:11 : once upon a time in a city in a far off land... once was a city as a curse.
10:21:48 : in that curse is a story embedded in the city, in the world of man, to be afraid of nature and all creatures and humans that are different. We walled off to defend off invaders, "other". The story of the Great Separate began.
10:22:51 : The Sorcerer said: A group of people got together and said we are better then this. We need to listen to nature and how we can heal this division. We invoked the spirit messages. The people's eyes were opened and they all started working together to build a new world and new cities.
10:23:11 : In this city, where such division was so evident, .... Shannon goes on.
10:23:47 : -------- Starting again - Joan.
10:24:31 : the Serpent said, the curse was to be afraid of people and other, to see difference as dangerous. We cast "other" outside the walls to be destroyed.
10:25:44 : Charlie -the Sorcerer said that the people invoked the nature spirits, and they also called on new people, for their gifts of difference, of diversity, to engage. They built a new more compassionate, more sane world and beautiful thriving cities that serve us all, including nature. More nature in our cities and more cities in nature.
10:26:21 : Shannon - the Vision Quest spoke and said; The curse is a contract. It binds us and we were lost. Now the quest and goal is/can be achieved - when the rift is repaired.
10:35:55 : We are all the same species. We can work together. The curse is the story I was born into. Seeing strangers as dangerous can be transformed into seeing that we are one, the same tribe and species, dependent and we need each other. We can transform when we listen to each other and work together. I am another yourself. Beauty and harmony. Ancestors wisdom is in our DNA. Remember the ancestral wisdom we gave you, before its too late. Before you reach the rapidly approaching point by your own destruction, where you can not be supported on Mother Earth and die. A bridge has been built between the individual and the whole organism, built by crisis, a virus, an invisible and unheard being, now can be heard and known and cared for. We must build trust again and gratitude toward the invisible and unseen. Make the unknowable known and appreciated for its unique gift to humanity.
10:38:50 : The Shaman tells us that the wound is man's inhumanity against man. Contracts made. Need walls. Can't be trusted. The mythology of separation began. These wounds began when cities came to be. Yes they protected us from "nature" or the "other". How can we ever trust and be safe? Can we come to know and use cities to remove the threats of separation? To now build that trust that our own evolution, that earth evolution required of us to survive and thrive?
10:40:48 : The reflective Scribe, asked by the Shaman to feel now, is reminded of Hugo of the 7 Vortex, talking about Humans being the youngest species on earth. How the trust that was built over time, between species, the bird and the flower, formed and informed into shapes that served each other. How can humans evolve to serve all of us, all beings of nature. We are nature.
10:41:15 : The Scribe write to the Vision Quest, forgive me - I know you can write our own. I am reflecting and can not write it all. You too must express from the Vision Quest. I will write your message here when you are ready.
10:41:44 the Vision Quest says, we’re all writing this story!
10:42:18 : The Sorcerer says, this is the 6th great extinction. We are concerned that the 50% of us humans living in cities, can not see this, and so know having a relationship, how can they care. They do not care what species are going extinct.
10:43:11 : Joy, seeing and reflecting that people are migrating in droves to be in nature. When crisis is hitting, they are coming to touch nature. More walking then ever before on the streets and in nature. The Scribe sees the same thing living in the forest, in nature, there are so many people visiting their vacation cabins and lands here and walking our dirt road around the lake.
10:44:35 Our Shaman leader responds to Marcia who shared she feels she is the only non-activist in our tribe, you are an activist! You are hear and listening and caring.
10:44:55 : Marcia - I am aware of it but what can I do about it. I am the only one in this groups that is not an activist. Reading what was stopping them from becoming a living community. I only see the birds and weeds in cities, the only nature I see. I do not see natural nature.
10:46:03 : Shaman leader asks who will share, who will speak, when we leave this small circle and return to the big circle?
10:46:11 : Scribes asks, in the big room, can Shaman leader show the image of the 3 cards, Serpent, Sorcerer and Vision Quest (screenshare) while Vision Quest speaks?
10:46:38 Shaman leader says, I can show (screenshare).
10:46:45 : Joy asks Marcia about her thinking she is not an activist... you are!
10:47:05 : thanks Shaman leader!, says the scribe.
10:47:13 From Daniel Rieder's - Breakout to Everyone : YWVM
10:47:40 : -----------------
10:47:48 : end breakout
10:47:51 : -----------



The Shaman Leader and The Scribe write the Story in collaboration:

Once upon a time in our Cities…
A Three Part Story by ...
The Serpent, The Sorcerer, and The Vision Quest.

Curses are contracts often forced upon us, and ancestral, as is the case here. Do not breach a contract, rather renegotiate or pay the contract off.

The Serpent represents base human reptilian behaviour, to feed, fornicate, dominate, and sleep. And as such, is much how cities were formed and have developed. The serpent can shed its old skin in an instant, as we can. The old skin which does not serve. Cooperation and interdependence are our natures also.

The Sorcerer works on the behalf of others, often without consent. We have seen this in governments, business, and corporations. Permissions and informed consent are necessary to function regeneratively, healthily. This has been the way our cities have functioned, without consent of the peoples of the cities.

The Vision Quest, a rite of passage, is how we transform and become what we came here for. This is a mandate for us to go on a collective vision quest, like we have done this week.

The wounding is that fear of nature, including human nature, is brutal and not safe. So we build better and better boundaries, walls, locked doors, gated communities, segregated parts of the cities, etc. This process of protecting ourselves by building bigger and better boundaries, has resulted in separation, and the illusion of safety. Safety from nature and from each other. This process has gone unchecked. This process is fueled by authoritarian non-consent, and invisible and powerful sorcery.


The enlightened wise sorcerer calls us, her Co-creators to protect nature, and to build the muscle of interconnection and trust in and with others.
