The Architecture of Belonging: Reweaving Ourselves into the Web of Life (6-part series)
This a six-part series drawn from my three decades of rural ecovillage living—an experiment at the edge of culture repair. These essays are living transmissions: collected field notes from both practical and cosmological investigations into the communal and land-based arts, and early previews from my upcoming book, Dying Together: The Art of Community Death Care—A Village-Inspired Guide to Belonging at the End of Life.
This series is meant to awaken what we already know: we belong to each other and to this living world. Reweaving ourselves into the web of life offers a blueprint for navigating both life and death. When we create containers rooted in belonging, death ceases to be an isolating, individual burden—it becomes a collective experience that deepens us.
