Beyond the Collapse – Event Part 1: The Soul’s Role in Birthing a New World
Beyond the Collapse – Event Part 1: The Soul’s Role in Birthing a New World

Aviv Shahar and friends

August 15, 2025

We all experience parts of ourselves moving in different directions at the same time. The cells in our bodies continually die as new ones are born. Throughout our lives, we release what no longer serves us and shift our attention toward new opportunities. So, we are no strangers to seeing that something is ending, fading, dying — while at the same time, something else is emerging, arriving, birthing through us.

This conversation brings to life the transition from an epoch that's fading to one that's emerging, and explores the soul's journey in placing both within a larger frame, one that recognizes three simultaneous processes: something ending, something emerging, and the liminal space in between. It is within this threshold that we can immerse ourselves in the unknown and embrace our struggles as whole human beings.

This journey invites us to expand beyond the familiar impulse to solve problems, and instead to explore options, widen our sense of what’s possible, and rewire our ways of seeing and being. The inquiry opens up vast questions, like “Where does the future come from?” — and illuminates latent potentials in humanity and higher states of consciousness. The soul, with its latent memory of the future, transcends the linearity of time in an entangled universe. It can serve as a powerful guide as the transition between epochs intensifies. To navigate these times with resilience and adaptability, we are called to both “hospice” the old epoch and “midwife” the new within ourselves and the world around us.

Strategies that help us approach this include:

  • releasing the conditioning of the old epoch, even as it resists being released
  • embracing the liminal in-between state and the opportunities it provides
  • facilitating, ripening and liberating the new epoch as it appears in us

This conversation is part of the continuing discovery into what is emerging on the frontiers of human experience in this time of profound change. Information about upcoming special events can be found on the Events page. Also visit and subscribe to our YouTube channel.

When you come up with a new way of seeing the challenges you are facing, you are literally opening for yourself (and likely for the people around you), a future that was not available before.
