Event description


* The Visionary Vortex *

Join us for a full day workshop/playshop on the 

*Visionary Vortex*

A quantum space of infinite potential where you are the creator of your experience. 

We will organically explore many topics from 

  • The Arts
  • Sciences
  • History
  • Philosophy
  • Sociology
  • Energy Medicine
  • Metaphysics
  • Futures Studies
  • Spirituality 
  • and much more...

The purpose of this exploration is to empower you in feeling positive and passionate in the present and for the future of your life.

      The future isn’t some abstract concept that exists ‘out there’, it resides within you, comprised of your thoughts, feelings, beliefs and dreams. When you change these, your future changes too.

      What possibilities could you be living now if you knew they were possible?

      What are you needing to change to be living your NOW as you desire?

      Like moths to a flame we are pulled towards the images we hold of the future. These images exist in the collective awareness and individually in our hearts and minds. The image of the future we give the most energy and attention to (either consciously through our choices or subconsciously through our downloaded programs) literally pulls us towards it. 

      Where are you being pulled?

      Too much of our futures have been colonised (like the past). Colonised by zombie apocalypse and alien invasion movies, colonised by consumer capitalism and unrealistic concepts of ‘growth’, colonised by vested multinational corporate interests and insidious algorithms. The first step is waking up to these (often invisible) influences. 

      If you don’t actively create your future, in the now, it will be chosen for you, potentially without your consent. 

      I am here to help inspire human agency on this day and beyond through two sessions of questioning, applied methods and transformative processes including;

      • Conscious Coherence
      • Essentials of Existence
      • Futures Triangle
      • Foresight & Backcasting

      You will receive a workbook to take home to continue the explorations and mapping if you wish.

      The day is centred around deepening personal connection and community building. 

      Children are welcome, though the sessions are designed for adults and older teens. 

      Bring a plate for a shared healthy lunch and extra snacks if you are bringing children.

      You might also want to bring a water bottle and something to write with, though we do have these here if you forget.

      Facilitator - Samantha Starshine

      I am excited to be sharing this work with you from well over a decade of research and experience in the realms of Academia, personal Spiritual journeying and cross-Cultural, inter-Generational learning. As a creative woman of the Earth and Stars I welcome you into the Visionary Vortex, where we question current paradigms and systems, leading with the wisdom of our hearts to re-imagine the future. 

      Birthing a new paradigm is important to me, as a mother of many children and lover of our beautiful Planet Earth. I see a paradigm of respect, harmony, love and freedom in diversity. A time and space where optimum health and unified co-existence are a birthright for all life. Where joy and laughter bubble up from our bellies and everyone has a home. This is my dreaming. 

      The last public visioning workshop I held was in December 2019, where we envisioned 2020 and sent waves of love and appreciation outward for the planet and all of her plants, animals and people. This gift of gratitude was a great anchor for the prevailing times of upheaval and challenge. In reality now we don’t want to go ‘back to normal’, but from this space of uncertainty we can create anew. Change is needed on multiple scales and as Gandhi taught us, it begins within. 

      This New/Ancient Earth is already alive and breathing, it is just our culture that needs to catch up/circle back. We are collectively birthing the paradigm all of the time through our choices, intentions and energy. We are literally upon the Edges of Evolution right now and the more awareness you can bring into these moments will make it better not only for yourself, but for the greater good of all upon the Earth. As both ancient wisdom and modern science suggests, we are all interconnected!

      I have studied widely in Sociology, Sustainability, Futures/Foresight, the Sciences, Body-Wisdom; and am deeply honoured to have grassroots/rhizome connections in multi-cultural and Indigenous ways of living and knowing through various Elders and Mentors, some ALIVE and some in the BEYOND. I tend this soil of interconnection lovingly with commitment, as a Star-seed Earthling experientially growing in harmony with the multiverse, Natural Law/Lore the guiding light.

      As a life-long seeker with a yearning for learning I am sure I will learn so much from all of you on this day too! We are the medicine.
