Who We Are

Honoring Our Roots. Growing Something New.


The Universal Love Curriculum (ULC) is a living, evolving offering designed to nurture the next generation of Wisdom Keepers — young people (and their grown-ups) who are learning to walk in love, creativity, courage, and kinship with the Earth.

This project was seeded through years of global collaboration, experimentation and deep listening. What began as a spark within the Dream Arc has grown into a decentralized, culturally adaptive curriculum — one that invites communities to co-create their own pathways of learning, rooted in nature, storytelling, imagination, and reverence for life.

The ULC is stewarded by Rosy Aronson — artist, author, teacher, longtime Gene Keys contributor and original Dream Arc Guide, in collaboration with a growing circle of allies, educators, Wisdom Keepers, and grassroots visionaries around the world.

to the Universal Love Curriculum

Honoring the Roots. Growing Something New

The Dream Arc, originally founded by Richard Rudd — who wrote the full Dream Arc Animal Codex — has served as a foundational inspiration for the Universal Love Curriculum (ULC).

Together with Richard and the Gene Keys team, Rosy Aronson (creator of the globally beloved Wisdom Keepers Oracle Deck) co-founded the Dream Arc online course, movement and community, and illustrated the full Codex. Now, through this youth-centered curriculum and movement, she (with her wonderful collaborators) is carrying forward the 12 Categories of the Cosmic Life Web - first brought to life in the Dream Arc — into a new, participatory form.

While these 12 Category names are rooted in the Dream Arc, the approach, language, and practices of the ULC are intentionally distinct. More specifically the animal reflections, creative activities, and experiential learning tools found in this and future modules are original to the ULC.

The ULC is being built as a decentralized, culturally adaptive model - where facilitators and communities become co-creators of the content. Rather than offering a single canon of animals or stories, the curriculum will encourage the emergence of diverse bodies of wisdom, all rooted in local voices, ecosystems, and traditions.
