Dear Dream Tending Community,
We hope you enjoy this excerpt and exercise from The Imagination Matrix, a new book by Stephen Aizenstat Ph.D. Consider joining us for the accompanying workshop Exploring the Imagination Matrix, online March 7th – 8th, 2025.
The Confluence
In the Imagination Matrix, the elements of the Four Quadrants are always in motion. I call these points of connection the Confluence: the ever-generating birthplace of the new possible. The energetic threads of Earth, Mind, Machine, and Universe fuse at multiple points of Confluence. Each Confluence provides the energy that births inspiration and engenders innovation.
The qualities derived from the elements of the Four Quadrants make up your Imaginal Intelligence, which ignites your creative potential. But how do you tap into it and use its power? In the next chapter, you will learn how to use the limitless resources in the Imagination Matrix to up your Imaginal IQ.
The Imagination Matrix describes tools and methods of how to access the limitless resources of the deep imagination and increase your Imaginal IQ.
Warmly,
Steve
Inside The Curious Mind
A quote that resonated with me this week…
“Each of the Four Quadrants informs the others with its innate knowing, and each offers you sparks of awareness that contribute to manifesting your life purpose.”
