Astrology Take the Threshold Test Wild Mind Contact

What happens next? Only soul knows.

Old life behind. New life ahead.

Everything is waiting for you.

Take the Threshold Test

 The Threshold Test

This is not your average personality quiz...


The Threshold Test is a free, in-depth psycho-spiritual self-assessment that provides a map & compass for your inner wilderness.

Inspired by the Wild Mind model, it is designed to pinpoint your exact coordinates on the Journey of Soul Initiation — revealing whether you are currently in the Preparation, Dissolution, Soul Encounter, Metamorphosis, or Enactment phase of your descent.

You receive personalized feedback about your current wise- and blind-spots to guide your next steps on your unique life path.

To know where you are is to know where to start.

Take the Threshold Test

You will discover:

  • Your Wild Mind Profile (Self vs. Protectors): Measure the current strength of the four facets that compose your innate wholeness. You will also identify the specific "Inner Protectors" (sub-personalities) that are currently hijacking your life to keep you "safe" from the transformation that awaits.
  • Your Coordinates on the Descent to Soul: Are you doing the necessary groundwork? Are you in the terrifying free-fall of unmaking? Are you enduring the alchemical fire of the chrysalis? Pinpoint exactly which of the Five Phases you are currently inhabiting.
  • Your Hidden Blockages: Receive a mirror reflecting exactly how your ego is currently trying to abort your journey, avoid the heavy lifting of true adulthood, or prematurely rush the process.
  • Your Immediate Next Steps: Instantly receive a highly customized results page featuring dynamic insights, targeted journal prompts, and specific nature-based practices tailored to your exact phase to help you navigate the threshold with confidence and grace.

Ecotone

The transition zone between two ecosystems; the threshold dividing distinct states of being; the liminal space between realms — inner & outer, Self & Nature, past & future.

Academy

A place of learning, inquiry, self-cultivation & shared practice; from the Greek Akadēmeia, a grove dedicated to Athena, goddess of wisdom & war; literally translated, a sacred garden of wisdom.

Education

Fresh information & edgy invitations to finally shift your psycho-emotional center of gravity.

Adventures

Explore the uncharted territory of your inner wilds as we wander, dance & weep in the wilderness.

Camaraderie

Join a multi-generational collective of catalytic agents eager to explore our evolutionary edges together.

Ecotone Academy is a Private Membership Association dedicated to personal and planetary evolution in alignment with ecological principles.

Our foundational presumption is well-stated by Buckminster Fuller: "Universe has one comprehensive coordinating system."

That is: Nature does does not have a physics department, a chemistry, biology and humanities department. It is all one swirl of organic elements spontaneously self-organizing according to a knowable operating system.

This dynamic system applies equally to atoms as galaxies as to stones, oceans and the subtle stuff of the human psyche.

Members of the Academy are engaged in the playful, profound and practical pursuit of this elusive-yet-ever-present wisdom.

We are guided by our longing for a more soulful life; for a more intimate relationship with creation; to be overwhelmed with awe at the magnitude of Mystery; to discover the gifts that are uniquely ours to give; to know where we belong within the web of all beings.

How It Works

When you become a member of Ecotone Academy, you will find three primary ways to engage and play along the precipitous cliff edge descending into Soul Canyon.

Education

Playful, profound and practical academic content organized into four core topics.

Adventure

Immersive in-person experiences exploring together the wilderness within and without.

Camaraderie

A diverse ecosystem of fellow seekers and Self-healers devoted to personal and planetary eco-evolution.
