Stage of Maturity
3
Bill Plotkin Early childhood (the Nest) forms the foundation for later soul discovery through the preservation of our original innocence and our innate relational intelligence, as well as through the development of a healthy culture-rooted ego. Middle childhood (the Garden) affords us the opportunity to learn the enchantment of the natural world (including sexuality during puberty) as well as the intricate cultural ways of our people. Early adolescence (the Oasis) teaches us to balance authenticity with social acceptance, which allows us show up in the world with integrity. Late adolescence (the Cocoon) is a time of withdrawal from the everyday social world as we leave behind our adolescent beliefs about ourselves and the world, and seek our unique gifts of the soul (natural talents) to bring them to our community. In early adulthood (the Wellspring), we appreciate our soul work in its specific form (identifying our natural talents) and learn the art of bringing our particular gifts into the world (enacting our Transcendental Purpose). In late adulthood (the Wild Orchard), we learn to embody our soul (Transcendental Purpose) in ever more creative, abundant and generative ways, through forms of our own creation. In early elderhood (the Grove), our primary focus shifts to mentoring and initiating the youth, and helping to maintain the delicate balance between the human social and natural world before surrender marks the release of the goal-oriented ego, which opens the way to the final stage. Late elderhood (the Mountain Cave), is a time when we yield to the impulse to turn to the mysterious tending of the evolving universe itself.
