Spreading Map

This I hope gives you an idea how The Heartline will spread. Like a…
A sky full of stars — of people making connections with each other forming strong chains that tie us all together. It’s a quiet revolution.

We might not see each other(the stars) in the daylight. But when the world quiets down and the light fades, we look up and we see the stars begin to appear — and we remember we’re not alone. 

We are together when the world is bright(good), but it can be hard to see and easily taken for granted. Then, when the world grows darker(worse) we will need each other's help and guidance, and so we see the stars light up. 

This illustration shows a snapshot after a person has been a member for a while: a person who’s been sharing the project, searching gently for others who might be searching too. In the center, you (the person) - whether you are active, passive or in-between. But, either way someone who shows up.

Each dot is a person. Each line is a connection. Some lines fade or pause. Some light up right away. Some people stay quietly supportive. Others become active, creating new links after meeting or recognizing another member along the way. And sometimes, the more stars appear, the more likely two strangers suddenly discover they’re part of the same constellation — like meeting someone who went to the same school as you. A subtle, surprising kind of closeness.

The map grows in all directions — with care, curiosity, and courage. Through ups and downs.

Meaning Behind the illustration

Meaning Behind the illustration

  • The big circle ("me") in the center is you – you too are a part of some else's starmap.

  • Lines radiating out from you show how you directly connect to others you’ve invited.

  • Small dots (green) are seed spreaders, passive hearts— people who carry the dream gently, are already engaged elsewhere, or want to support YOU with finding fitting members, but don’t feel ready for anything else right now.

  • Bigger dots (yellow) are active hearts— people who show up, invite, join meetings, help with the project, and work as an anchor for other people to stay connected

  • Green dots with orange circles are passive but getting more active at their own pace.

  • Crossed-out stars (✖) are dead ends — connections that stopped, got stuck, or didn’t carry it forward. – But never say never.

  • Zigzag lines (pink) are unexpected connections between people who didn't know each other before but met and realized they are both Hearts for Our Future, both members of the Heartline.

  • Stippled yellow lines are new strong connections between active people who maybe met at a gathering and together started a local project outside The Heartline or just became good friends.
