CHASING POLARIS

Never underestimate a Polaris Seeker—you can’t navigate with the stars if you don’t have your head in the clouds.

The structures and systems we live in are designed to meet the needs of the majority. Here, on the outer edges of the bell curve, outliers must seek out new pathways, or become trapped by what defines us. Chasing Polaris is about this journey.

Polaris appears to us as a single point of light when it is, in fact, light from three stars: a distant triple-star system that aligns with Earth’s rotational axis above the north celestial pole.

The light from Polaris gives us a fixed point of reference, allowing us to explore undefined boundaries to re-orient our authentic selves and find our way home.

You don’t have to be an outlier to find Polaris.

But for some of us, it’s our only hope to move forward. 

For Polaris Seekers, to r/evolve is to authentically carry our stories forward and to re/claim what has been predicted, planned, promised, expected or obliged.

By doing so, the past becomes a raw material to be mediated by present understandings, subject to the claims we stake on our future(s).

You can’t navigate with the stars if you don’t have your head in the clouds…
