Cavitation
...the new novel from Clinton Callahan.
FROM THE VIEWPOINT OF A MAGE...
In times of extreme human-generated chaos, a torus forms.
Geniuses are drawn together in a torus to learn a new talent. Their efforts catalyze a start-over for human beings.
That time of collapse is now.
The torus begins.
NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR - 3 July 2024
At this moment, no one else in the world but my Muse and I have read Cavitation... well, more accurately, 'The' Muse... as She is certainly not 'my Muse'. I don't know what She does after hours when She is not involved in coaxing me to let the real stuff come through... But this is not the problem.
The problem is that I feel jealous of anyone who has not already read Cavitation.
I am jealous because a new reader gets to experience all of the ecstasies for the first time.
Seven billion, nine-hundred and ninety-nine million, nine-hundred and ninety-nine thousand, nine-hundred and ninety-eight people have not read this book yet. Try to imagine how much jealousy that is for me to hold.
No one can yet commiserate with me about this particular affliction.
Hopefully, soon, you will know what I am talking about. Perhaps there will be many struggling to endure this anguish.
Then we can start the Sergeant Clinton's Lonely Hearts Club Band... for people who have already enjoyed the 500 pages and are pining away for the sequel... or spontaneously writing a spinoff book themselves!
But I warn you, it is intense writing stories like these!
Perhaps there is no other book like this in the world, a book written on the bridges to Archiarchy.
It could be a new genre of book: the Archan Bridge Books.
That would make sense, because together we are creating a new genre of culture: Archan Culture!
I think that the best advice I've heard lately, is, "Don't give me the answer. I want to stay on the Quest!"
WHAT IS CAVITATION?
'To cavitate' means 'to make a cave where there was no cave before'.
The procedure for consciously calling forth a new Space where there was already a Space existing is called 'Cavitation' (spelled with a capital 'C' to indicate that this form of Cavitation is done consciously).
Cavitation is a Mage Space Navigation Skill.
Once you learn how to Cavitate new culture Space - or as Gameworld Builders say, Cavitate new 'Gamespace', life will work differently for you. Is this what you want?
WHY LEARN EVOLUTIONARY SKILLS?
As with many Possibilitator Skills, you already know how to cavitate new space and have been doing so unconsciously since you were a baby.
Modern culture claims that awareness does not evolve, and we already know all there is to know.
It may seem wild to think that the culture and times which currently exist, only exists because so many people keep re-creating it to exist that way each 3 seconds due to their deep-seated unconscious fear that they would not be able to survive if things changed.
But what if you are already ready to exit Patriarchy? What if you could learn to consciously Cavitate new culture space to come into existence and then inhabit it? What sort of culture would you create?
Let it be known that in this time of human history, there is a pressing necessity for more Transformation Navigators.
How To Cavitate New Space?
Step-by-Step instruction are only useful if you practice until you forget the steps.
Then you have shifted identity: You become a Space Cavitator.
Complete instructions are given at the Cavitate Space website.
Cavitating Space starts with being Responsible for the existence of the new Space.
When you are Responsible for something, you are alive.
Cavitating new Space gives you new life.

I cradle Cavitation in my arms. My eyes brim over with tears. I’ve been longing to read this book my whole life. I so wanted to collaborate with the likes of people whose stories are told in these pages. I thought I would need to write this book myself if I wanted the thoughtmaps to exist. But here they are! Like Callahan's other books: Building Love that Lasts, and Conscious Feelings, reading Cavitation helps me join Team Gaia. I love being on Team Gaia. I worked alone trying to create this Team ever since my childhood. Now I can hardly contain my impatience to meet anyone else who has read Cavitation so we can get on with creating Archiarchy together.

Each time I put Cavitation down, I long to hold it in my hands again. The pages are transparent doorways leading to precious, ancient, transformational chambers from an infinite labyrinth. Each story is a download of practical wisdom, woven into a novel of realistic loving discoveries. I don't want the book to be over too soon, but I can’t resist reading further. I keep wanting to find out what becomes of me when I continue on this journey. This book is a celebration!

Cavitation does not merely invite you into a storyworld by using your imagination. Instead it tells the kind of stories that pull the rug out from under your belief system and drop you into a new reality by giving you models not bound by the limitations of your current worldview. This is a book of doorways to seemingly impossible worlds. But when you go through a doorway, the new world is no longer impossible, because the book gives you the tools to bring it to life yourself.
BETSY CHASSE
Cavitation is a paradigm shifter. The pages are rich with the kind of dialogue we need to have if we are going to evolve upward and onward into a regenerative human reality on Earth. Every time I engage with, or read something from, Clinton Callahan, I feel changed… not just mentally or emotionally changed, but on a cellular level. The changes persist even if I forget about them. Then my world starts to work more interestingly.

Clinton’s tales are packaged into a book, but the word ‘book’ is too dead for what happens on these pages. Synchronistically, the events line up with my life … and, I imagine, the life of any careful reader. From what seem to be entertaining stories, I experience an emergency transformation of self, away from any remaining bits of zombie nature, and toward something alive and relational. Cavitation is today’s version of Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance.

Clinton, I am blown away by your latest writing masterpiece!! It is so well researched and told. By page 7, Mandisa’s words have touched my soul, for her questions, I too have asked.
‘Cavitation’ shows how creating a new and better world is up to each of us, not some promised Messiah or 'leader'. This book inspires resilience and resourcefulness, as each character unfolds their potentials through remaining steadfastly connected to their passion, purpose, and values.
By writing from his heart and a consciously evolved perspective, the author takes us on a journey of self-exploration and contemplation into a cave of treasures, leaving us to choose what we shall embody, or not.

Cavitation is in a genre of its own. It’s part highly-entertaining fictional drama, part visionary work of art, part erudite philosophical teaching tool, and part 'how to' instruction manual in the skills of emotional healing that are central to creating purposeful, adult community. I am wondering if it could be part something else, too, something harder to name... a causal energetic action, a spark of fire helping to ignite global transformation?
The most exciting part for me while reading Cavitation was at some point being overtaken by the surprising experience that I am not only reading a story about transformation, but actually experiencing transformation happening in me! I began feeling strange, effervescent sensations throughout my body. The sensation corresponded to the thought or the recognition - it had the feeling of reality - that a pleasant, energizing flow was somehow coursing directly from the book through the cells of my body, drawing me into its thrilling evolutionary current. How could this be happening?
The novel traces a dozen different storylines unfolding in parallel, and taking place in disparate places around the planet. Some of these include a decimated tribal village in Africa, a bombed-out urban neighborhood in the war-torn Middle east, CIA bunkers deep underground, a basement in Eugene, Oregon, even a magical gathering of Hollywood celebrities. As readers, we enter into and follow each storyline. We get to know characters living in widely different circumstances, fleshed out in compelling detail. Little by little, something analogous starts to happen in each different story. A new awareness begins dawning everywhere, new skills, new commitments, new ways of interacting emerge simultaneously. Gradually, these stories start to converge. It’s as if all of it is inspired and coordinated by a larger, evolutionary, planetary force.
It seems to me that Clinton Callahan imagines and writes all of this out in a work of such clarity, such conviction and commitment, with so much playfulness and creativity, rage, sadness, love and desire, that what he imagines simply begins to acquire the force of reality.

Some Evolutionaries leave trails of breadcrumbs in their books.
Clinton Callahan shows up at your door, enthusiastically ringing the bell to personally deliver a crate full of tasty and deliciously diverse loaves, baguettes, doughnuts… and cakes.
He does not want anything in return. Neither does he expect that you will accept the gift. He simply enjoys the possibility that you can finally nurture your Self.
But if you let him in, it turns out he also brought along a bag of seeds, should you want to grow the grains yourself, a design for a water-powered mill and rocket oven, a list of contacts for people who are enthusiastic about baking, plus a bunch of websites with the best recipes and a short guide of how you could make a living baking bread... should you chose to do so.
You blink in disbelief.
A few months later you find yourself ecstatically baking bread, with a joyous bunch of new friends, in a city you never heard of before, for a consciousness-expanding, archetypally-creative, co-laboratory event that you yourself have initiated.
This is how your life could start over.
You have been warned…

"The treasure is endless if you let it flow through you," explains one of the characters in Cavitation.
And what flow!
I was swept up by the wide and deep stories forming this novel, each a tributary to larger wholeness.
I encourage you to let this visionary work inspire you to imagine another way of being.

ANNE-CHLOÉ DESTREMAU
Before I read this book I did not want to imagine that these kinds of interactions and conversations were possible. Because if I knew they were possible, and they did not happen, I would be so heartbroken. There is the very real possibility that people around the world could listen to each other, “Hey, come on in, let’s talk…” people sharing what they are afraid of, and what they are sad about, putting the poop on the table, and through being heard, things heal and change. This is the Archan way of being with each other. From the distinctions in these stories, so many projects could be created, so many films could be made, the awareness expansions happening are so real and inspiring.
Why didn’t this happen before? Because nobody thought of it. It’s that simple.
So here they are, ideas leading to conversations that lead to Archiarchy thriving. I see Archiarchy thriving because the people around me already have the ideas for how to do it: 3Cells, Possibility Teams, Heart Gym, Bridge-House, EHP Dojos, spaces for people to radically relate. Here is my heart. I know it is possible because I am surrounded with people who meet in circle and help each other come to life. Cavitation reveals the secrets for starting over.

By reading Cavitation, it is quite possible that you will begin to orbit in its constellation, mysterously including aspects of its clarity and inventiveness in your daily life. Cavitation embeds multileveled language and methodology for generating new ways of being. Rather than avoiding or resisting transformation, the characters boldly lean into the formerly terrifying uncertainties that are being avoided by the rest of humanity. They make an ally of the dreaded liquid state.
Who will we be together as we stand to face the most challenging times in human history? What will be the qualities of our relationships, of our presence, the creative expression of our souls? Cavitation is a book of life excerpts from sacred warriors who rise to the occassion and answer these deep questions through the actions of their daily lives together in a world laden with human-caused predicament.
Let's all dance together with the brave, authentic characters in Cavitation...
Let's dance.
Clinton Callahan and his teams are entirely unique in the scale, focus, persistence, and passion of their life-changing work. After 40 years of exploration, I know of no other body of work that is so well equipped to support and empower sincere practitioners as we reach out to create truly new possibilities, new ways of thinking, being, relating and reconnecting with life. Thank you Clinton for the realness and gravitas you include in Cavitation. The scale and power of your creations never cease to amaze me.

Clinton Callahan's Cavitation takes us on a direct dive into next culture, Archiarchy. Chapter after chapter it creates bridges beyond boundaries, giving distinctions to other paths and possibilities awaiting to be discovered at the edge of modern culture's constrictions. Cavitation rides the cutting edge of the real evolution of human relating. This book is revolutionary and life-changing, therefore challenging. Are you ready to take the chance for radical and practical change?

Dear Clinton,
I want to let you know, that I am having such a great time reading Cavitation! I am so glad it is a 'fat' book as I am really hooked (in the sense of finding it hard to do anything else but read it). And wild synchronicities are going on!
While Remington Smith pulls her finger through the dust of her grandmothers bookshelf, she mentions Terry Pretchett's books while my son sits next to me on the couch reading Terry Pretchett...
Friday night after holding space for the Rage Club Training, I turn the next page in Cavitation to find the sketches of women in a Standing Rage Hold! And the next day we have a participant jump into a spontaneous Push Shoulders Process in order to find her true voice again, pretty much exactly as described in the book!
I LOVE IT!
Thank you for being the mouthpiece so these stories can be heard.
Love,
LISA-MARIA GOERTZ
Dear Clinton,
I thank you for writing Cavitation. It is pure magic. Every page is a journey into new kinds of liquid states. Over and over I keep falling in love with human creativity, human potential, and what is truly possible for human beings. It makes me so excited to be alive.
Whilst camping in the mountains of Kasmir with a community of gypsy shepherds living their own culture, fellow possibilitator Amaris Amanda and I spent various afternoons reading Cavitation out loud to each other. We navigated inner transformations together. We laughed and cried, and felt the truth of the words tingling in every cell. We expressed the pain we felt of wanting the Handbook to exist.
Amanda and I decided that Cavitation should exist in Spanish. We will translate Cavitation into Spanish.
What you have created, your life's work, is so incredibly important to me. I feel angry because I don't know how to express all that I am feeling about this, and all I want to say, so that it delivers all the elegance and beauty and magnitude that I want to convey.
I have never been so light, or had this much spaciousness to let so much love in to my being, to my life, to relate, to be intimate, to live a life outside of low drama creating what I want to create in each moment, to be unhooked and centred, to be in my own authority, to live ecstatically, to actually feel... To feel! Just that, to feel and know I am alive. I love you Clinton. I am crying as I write this. I am so grateful to have met you and all the other wonderful people who are making another future (and present) possible using these treasures. My deepest pain is wishing that more people wake up to this magical life that's possible of playing full-out, of freedom, of simplicity, of creation and being with, of creative collaboration. It has only been one year and two months since I discovered Possibility Management. The magnitude and diversity of changes I see in me and in my life are just ridiculous. They have blown to smithereens all my stories about how long transformation takes, and the recommendations that I should go along with the crowd, and accept, "That's how life is, so deal with it."
Thank you, thank you thank you!!!!
Love,

Cavitation is a step-by-step handbook for creating a personal life where collaborative creation, unreasonable generosity, nonlinear empowerment, integrity and dignity are at the center. My soul is touched to its core directly experiencing how a bright future for humanity is achievable right here and right now. I am moved to tears so often that now I carry tissues with me.
Since I was a child I would look at the news and ask questions that all children who can feel (and are allowed to ask questions) ask: Why is there war? Why do some people have enough to eat and others don't? Why don't we have the money to do things my friend's parents can do? The answers I received were inevitably some version of: Do you have a better idea?
Well, Cavitation not only has better ideas, but it plants potent seeds that unfold new ways of thinking, and new talents that unleash soul and aliveness in my real life.
In 2014, Ursula LeGuin gave a speech while receiving her National Book Award. At the end she says, "Modern people live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the 'divine right of kings'. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art... very often in our art, the art of words."
The artful words in Cavitation ignite crystal-clear empowerment for the reader to build and move into next culture in their real life, regenerative culture, Archiarchy. This is already happening for me.

NOTE: Dates for Syria occur in two eras. The first era starts in 2012 when Zenobia and her family arrive in Aleppo from Palmyra. The second era starts eleven years later, in 2023 when the earthquakes hit and the Dandelion Seed group takes to the road. Their journey continues through the winter into 2024 at which time their dates catch up with the dates of characters in the other stories. Therefore, two ages are given below for each Syrian character, shown as (age in 2012 /age in 2023).Zenobia Darwish (14 in 2012 / 25 in2023) she is born at her grandfather’s farm on 24 September 1998 near Palmyra, Syria, four years after the Afqa Spring dries up.

Hadi Qasim (17 in 2012 / 28 in2023) she has sandy-blonde hair cut short, and worked as a nurse delivering emergency medical treatment until her children’s hospital is blown up by Assad’s Army. ‘Hadi’ means ‘guide’. ‘Qasim’ means ‘one who distributes or shares’. Hadi is spaceholder for the healing node, their first doctor, healer, and shaman, then replaces herself with Sammi Ghulam so she can become the spaceholder of the Dandelion Seed healing node on the expedition.
Lylah Younis (9 in 2012 / 21 in2023) with slightly curly long sandy-blonde hair. ‘Lylah’ means ‘night, and play’, in other words, ‘seductive’. ‘Younis’ means ‘a kind, just, and forgiving person’. ‘Younis’ could also originate from ‘yona’, the Hebrew version of Jonah. She goes on the expedition to meet other cultures. She has a powerful intelligence and speaks well.
Thomas Taha (11 in 2012 / 22 in2023) keeping quietly to himself, people regard him as a bomb that will one day explode. ‘Thomas’ is a Greek name that means ‘twin’. ‘Taha’ is a North African name that means ‘furious, angry’. The team wishes that he learns to harness and direct his anger as a valuable resource. Thomas uses his old phone with a Dictionary App to translate English into Arabic, so he is a linguist and goes on the expedition.
Sammi Ghulam (14 in 2012 / 26 in2023) he goes through the Emotional Healing Process of objecting to the circle being divided, where some go walking and some stay behind. He can then stay behind. ‘Sammi’ means ‘name of God, God has heard’. ‘Ghulam’ means ‘boy, or servant’. He replaces Hadi as spaceholder for the healing node in camp so Hadi can go on the expedition.
Rahim Taleb (10 in 2012 / 21 in2023) he is thin but active and speaks well, short dark-brown hair. ‘Rahim’ means ‘merciful’. ‘Taleb’ means ‘student’. He takes over being spaceholder for the Study Group node so that Montassar can go on the expedition.
Rachel Deeb (she arrives in camp fiveyears before the earthquakes at 21 years / 26 in 2023) ‘Rachel’ means ‘little lamb, one with purity’. ‘Deeb’ means ‘wolf’, commonly associated with ‘loyalty, bravery and strength’. People who speak Arabic often laugh when Rachel Deeb introduces herself because her full name means ‘Sheep Wolf’. The question being, which is true, and when? Rachel replaces Israa Nabih as spaceholder for Morning Circle, and then becomes the official Dandelion Flower Infinity Ring spaceholder after Zenobia Darwish is already far into the expedition. Rachel then takes Huda Shamalieh as her first apprentice as the Dandelion Flower Infinity Ring spaceholder.
Huda Shamalieh (she arrives in campfive years before the earthquake at 16 years / 21 in 2023) ‘Huda means ‘guidance, right path, or enlightenment’. ‘Shamalieh’ means ‘from the North’. Huda takes over kitchen node spaceholding from Jamila Ali Ahmed so Jamila can go on the expedition. Huda is also the Interlocutrix between Dandelion Flower and Dandelion Seed. Huda takes Sumeya Mbeki as her first apprentice in the camp kitchen node.
Zaid Bakir (he arrives four yearsbefore the earthquakes at 19 years / 23 in 2023) ‘Zaid’ means ‘happiness, growth,abundance’, the name of Muhammad's adopted son. ‘Bakir’ means ‘dawn, earlier than expected’. Zaid replaces Aziza Hamdi Ahmed at spaceholder for the camp guardian node so that Aziza can be spaceholder for the Dandelion Seed guardian node on the expedition.
Habib Badawi (24 in 2023) he walksinto camp just after the earthquakes. ‘Habib’ means ‘beloved, darling’. ‘Badawi’ means ‘Bedouin, bringer of good news’. Habib is muscled but not fat warrior type. His dark hair is in tight curls, always looking a little oily. He has this smile that you cannot figure out if it is friendly or mean, simply that it is earnest. He goes on the expedition.
Sumeya Mbeki (Xhosa woman who arrivesone month after Dandelion Seed departs / 24 in 2023) she read an article by Rachel Deeb and found out about the Aleppo camp and came here from the asamangaXhosa in South Africa. ‘Sumeya’ means ‘never doubt the bright principles’. ‘Mbeki’ means ‘there is a lesson to learn in everything’. Sumeya becomes first apprentice to the camp kitchen node spaceholder, Huda Shamalieh.
…and then there is the old Fortune Teller lady sitting by the dried fish in the corner at the Aleppo market. Nobody can replace her.

ARCHIARCHY
Archiarchyis the authentic adulthood initiation-centered radically-responsible regenerative culture rapidly emerging around the world now that Matriarchy and Patriarchy have run their course. The term ‘Archiarchy’ was coined by Clinton Callahan before 4 January 2008 when Clinton first started using the name in processes and thoughtmaps during a Possibility Lab in Germany. From 2008 until 2017, Archiarchy existed only in theory, that is, in Phase 1 (Phase 1 is understanding Archiarchy). Archiarchy entered Phase 2 in 2023 (Phase 2 is building and inhabiting Archiarchy) when Bridge-Houses and Archiarchy Invention Centers began popping up around the world.
HIDDENUNIVERSITY
By the end of this book, many if not most of the characters end up creatively collaborating to deliver the work and possibilities of the Hidden University. It is called ‘hidden’ because campuses invisibly stand in plain sight in front of everyone because the Hidden University is Earth. Gaia is the headmistress of the Hidden University and is the authority establishing the necessity and the evolving specifics of the curricula.Cavitation Experiments

NOTE: This website is a Bubble in the Bubble Map of the free-to-play, massively-multiplayer, online-and-offline, thoughtware-upgrade, matrix-building, personal-transformation, adventure-game called StartOver.xyz. It is a doorway to experiments that upgrade your thoughtware so you can relocate your point of origin and create more possibility. Your knowledge is what you think about. Your thoughtware is what you use to think with. When you change your thoughtware, you go through a liquid state as your mind reorganizes itself. Liquid states can bring up transformational feelings and emotions. By upgrading your thoughtware you build matrix to hold more consciousness and leave behind a low drama life of reactivity. No one can upgrade your thoughtware for you. More interestingly, no one can stop you from upgrading your thoughtware. Our theory is that when we collectively build 1,000,000 new Matrix Points we will change the morphogenetic field of the human race for the better. Please choose responsibly to read this website. Reading this whole website is worth 1 Matrix Point. Doing any of the experiments earns you additional Matrix Points.
