'Onto-Justice'—When Our Maps Fail the Territory (Feral Wisdoms Collection)

What if the deepest crisis of our time isn't primarily political, economic, or even ecological — but ontological? What if the frameworks we're using to understand and respond to reality are themselves part of the problem?In this reflection, transformation practitioner, healer, and former legal scholar Anna Grear introduces the concept of onto-justice — the idea that justice—real justice—requires an adequate account of what is actually here. Drawing on systems thinking, assemblage theory, rhizomatic thought, and the philosophy of Karen Barad, Anna explores what it means to open toward complexity rather than contract away from it — and why that opening is not merely intellectually interesting but urgently necessary.Along the way she introduces original theoretical concepts including the idea of 'ontic thickening' — the way certain patterns accrete material weight and gravitational pull over time — and 'intra-lapping', a way of holding apparently opposed structures (rhizomatic and arboreal, complex and causal) as mutually constitutive rather than competing.This is a reflection about fear, rigour, humility, and what feral wisdom might actually look like in practice.Topics include: ontology and justice · systems thinking · assemblage theory · Deleuze and Guattari · Karen Barad · complexity and politics · ontic thickening · embodied healing · chronic fatigue · new materialism · onto-justiceTo find out more, visit https://www.youtube.com/@BodyGuru-AGx
