Note from the editors Where there’s smoke, there’s a spark. And where there’s a spark, there’s a shift. A meteor breaking apart in the atmosphere is sparks flying out of your barbecue. At this moment perspective is at play. At every moment. Everywhere. A change in focus can mean a change in attitudes, ideas, meanings, intentions, dynamics, and lives. Perspective is a strange beast, and we (the general “we”) love tinkering with it. It’s said that our only constant is change. Shifting is more accurate. We are constantly shifting. And if you’re following, then sparks are absolutely everywhere. Just for kicks and completely out of context, here’s Jung: “This moment is critical because it possesses a high energy tension which, when the unconscious is already charged, may easily ‘spark’ and release the unconscious content.” This moment. Unconscious content—oh the places we could go! We hope you enjoy the sparks compiled herein.
