Burning Man 2025- Tomorrow Today

I'm record keeping my time on the playa this year after my 10th burn! What an experience it was. Both highs and lows but we remained conscious throughout; regrouped, rebuilt, refortified our systems. Burning Man has always felt like a training ground to me. Where we go to gather in the desert, weaving together our many strands of creative energy to build an entire city that stands for a week in a place that is trying to kill you.

It has always felt like souls get called here to bring the threads of external culture into a microcosmic experiment of counter culture; where each member of this journey is an initiate and participant. A place where everyone is needed, everyone's stories have room to be told, and everyone's light and shadow comes to take its own intuitive dance through the desert. It has always felt, to me- like we go to that place; not to escape reality, but to actually become more intimate and conscious of who we are within this external reality.

And we are never escaping our problems by building homes in massive wind storms, cleaning off every single piece of our belongings from dust, and caking the mud off our shoes after the ground has been soaked in rain.. we are arriving to the playa to meet more of ourselves, and to become more embodied versions of ourselves.

I've recorded episodes on my time at Burning Man before, but this year; given the strong projection field- both from external sources like news and social media; and also internal sources like my own readings, inquiry and intention for my time there.. it felt appropriate to sit down and get some of my own thoughts out about it.

What I always leave the playa remembering is that- people are the evidential purpose for me in this walk of life. And my highlights are almost always connected to the moments we are just hanging out at camp, working through interpersonal dynamics, taking long bike rides and walk abouts with our people where we're chatting and playing, and interacting with the desert and all of its psychedelic and spiritual inspirations.

I hope this episode offers you a unique perspective and expands your own thought process about counter cultures and their direct and immediate impact on the external "default" reality. How this city is built and destroyed in one week is a template for the the worldwide curriculum we are each stewarding.

There is no running away at Burning Man, there is simply just you surrendering- towards something. And that's the magic. It always gives you what you need, never what it is you think you want. It's one of the largest ego deaths, both personally and as a collective alchemy for the way it ripples back into society. No one is ever the same after these portals open. Whether we think its good, or bad- is really just our own projection field. I think we have a lot to learn from what is created, built, fortified, and dismantled when people work together.

I think we still have a lot to learn from Burning Man- AND; I think society is doing their own version of burning the man too. So maybe we can take a piece from the playbook and bring fun and consciousness into the plot.
