VIA POSITIVA 2025:  Thriving Together

June 22 - September 14, 2025


Via Positiva is the season of abundance, growth and expansion…the time when we explore the beauty and awe in each other, in ourselves, and in nature. Energized by the sun, hydrated by the rain, connected by mycelium, and sung to by the birds, trees leaf out, flowers blossom, fruit ripens and nature flourishes. So it is with humans: We, too, need deep partnerships with each other, with nature and with the Divine to thrive and prosper.

We are a virtual bubble

a circle of squares

circling our wagons

to keep the beasts

of doubt at bay

We are a fairy ring of sprouting hopes

a nest of twigs and dreams

a galaxy viewed through

letters and feathers and fabrics

We are a globe

exposed

fragile and shimmering and strong

We are here

together

We are enough

~ Laura Purdie Salas
