a new global paradigm for magicians
What Are Collisions?
Collisions are not retreats. They are not workshops. They are something different.
A Collision is a coming together of skilled and conscious beings who are ready to co-create in the present moment. There is no set curriculum, no rigid itinerary—only a carefully held space where synchronicity, intuition, and collective intelligence take the lead.
In a Collision, participants bring their full presence, their curiosity, and their gifts. Some may guide breathwork journeys or sound activations; others may lead movement practices, philosophical inquiries, or silent immersions in nature. There may be deep conversations by firelight, music flowing through the trees, or moments of stillness where nothing is said, but everything is felt.
Each Collision is an experiment in trust—a trust in the intelligence of the moment, the power of the land, and the magic that arises when the right people come together.
Who Are We?
We are those who do not fear change.
We are those who will not be disrupted by AI.
We are those who trust creation and can hold others in that trust.
We are modern magicians.
We have trained in disciplines both ancient and cutting-edge. Some of us are psychologists exploring the frontier of psychedelics, breathwork facilitators bringing people into direct contact with creation, neuroscientists questioning the limits of the scientific method, philosophers dissolving the illusion of mind and matter.
Others are engineers, entrepreneurs, artists, and healers. We have studied shamanism and spirit medicine, chi qong and yoga, meditation and breath, community facilitation and psychology.
Whether we came here by intention or by intuition, the outcome is the same: we carry the skills, knowledge, and understanding that are now being called upon to help guide humanity through a time of rebirth.
We gather because we know that together, we can do more than we ever could alone.

What Are We Doing?

What Are We Doing?
We are building a living network of modern magicians.
The first hub of this network is forming in the magical land of the Azores, where practitioners are coming together to share their knowledge, refine their gifts, and forge deep, lasting connections.
We do not subscribe to any singular tradition, approach, or belief system. Instead, we ask a simple question:
Are you ready to support each other—and in doing so, support the world in its heroic and difficult rebirth?
Our first initiative is The Collision Series, a project born from a vision received in connection with the powerful spirit of a volcano on São Miguel Island. The vision was clear:

Bring together small groups of skilled, self-led practitioners in an environment of deep presence and inspiration. Let them share their knowledge, their wisdom, their practices—not through rigid structure, but through real-time attunement to what wants to emerge. From these gatherings, a web of connection and creation will spread across the world.

What is Happening?
Our world is shifting at a speed never seen before. The very fabric of our understanding—of humanity, truth, intellect, and consciousness—is being reshaped. While these changes ripple through politics, economics, health, and technology, they stem from something much deeper: a transformation at the core of our collective being.
Amidst this change, new ways of thinking, feeling, and being are required. The old frameworks no longer hold. A new intelligence—one that is emergent, interconnected, and rooted in direct experience—is coming alive.

What is The Laughing Orchard?
What is The Laughing Orchard?
The Laughing Orchard is both a physical place and a metaphysical space.
Nestled in the lush volcanic valley of Furnas, São Miguel, it serves as the first home for these gatherings. The land itself is alive with energy—hot springs bubbling from the earth, forests thick with ancient wisdom, ocean cliffs where the wind whispers secrets.
But more than that, The Laughing Orchard is a container. It is a place where people come together to listen—to the land, to themselves, and to each other. It is where modern magicians collide, connect, and catalyze something greater than themselves.
This is the beginning.
The vision is to train future hosts, planting the seeds for Collisions to spread to other lands, other communities, and other sacred spaces across the world. Each Collision builds the network; each gathering strengthens this emerging field.
And as this movement grows, so does the possibility for new fundamental truths to emerge.
The next Collision is forming. Will you be there?
