A sample of what goes into my #patreonrewards medicine boxes every solstice + equinox for patrons who pledge at the Holon + Holobiont levels: hops wreaths with local plants, silk, + fiber from @waverlyknots • dried local morels • bath + ritual late summer salt blend with citrus, cedar, clove, rose + herbs • desert incense and tonics from @marybethbonfiglio • local soap samples . . A #holon is something that is simultaneously a whole and a part. It is evolving, self-organizing, relational, and open-ended. Holon-level contributors are invested in cultivating the conditions for an artist to fully realize and live into her medicine, which includes the creation of a book on #MagicalRadical living in a dying culture on a damaged planet. . #Holobionts are assemblages of different species that form ecological units. Holobionts are technically defined as the host plus of all its microbial symbionts, including transient and stable members.  All plants and animals can be understood as holobionts, and this in turn can help us re[member] ourselves as less of a separate atomized entity and more as a place. This idea contextualizes us within a framework of intra-active communities. Holobiont-level contributors are invested in an artist's work as an intimate energy exchange with the goal of learning together. .
