What is it to be a researcher of Patterns of Nature

Here we are in a circle, gathered together to research letting Nature be our teacher through the permeating, far flung, exquisite Patterns of Nature. 

Some premises of this work, as I understand them from our work with these Patterns over the years–what they have been teaching us:

• While each individual Pattern is present from quark to cosmos, they amplify different aspects of being.
• Each Pattern as we have explored them has:
  •  a tangible in form in Nature, 
  • a movement-shape, 
  • a physicality (in our body) aspect that is located in a layer of our tissue and in an energy center (this help dramatically with recollection of Patterns),*
  • a consciousness/perspective/worldview (life-giving or destructive in shadow form),  
  • an evolutionary/developmental position from birth of our Universe to end of our Universe, from conception to death (dissipation) dust to dust
  • Mystery -unknown
• Together, our collection of Patterns weaves together different aspects of Wholeness; the collection makes Wholeness tangible, like thread to tapestry.
• We aren’t looking for THE pattern or patterns, we are looking for OUR, or YOUR own Pattern  for this moment related to our shared questions.
• Each of us, as an individual researcher might follow a different filament of a Pattern. 
• As you explore something that touches, ignites you, your insight and discoveries when shared with us all, help shape the Patterns. 
• As you apply the Patterns in your life, specific work with them, you also help us expand our sense of the possible.

*The first few and last patterns may be an exception to physically localized patterns. They seem more of the field of being, our being before form. Yet permeating just now in any one place or tissue layer.
