The confusion is not on your part. I suspect that I am using these terms very idiosyncratically. Gestalt — a felt sense of the whole but on a very personal level, embodied knowing on a personal level. Zeitgeist–a felt sense of the whole but on a global level–we might call it culture. #rhizo14 has each of us reaching out roots into the soil and trying to gain nourishment so that the whole plant might live.
