Co-creating a world where we all belong
About Earthkeepers
A global movement rooted in the wisdom of the earth, devoted to restoring our sacred relationship with the living world.
Who we are
The Earthkeepers Non-Profit Foundation is a global movement rooted in the wisdom of the earth. We are devoted to restoring the sacred relationship between humanity and the living world. Each of us carries a unique soul note, a golden frequency that forms part of nature's greater harmony. Through embodiment, ceremony, and community, we remember and reclaim this sacred connection.
Let us elevate our world from its primal state to its most sublime form. This is the essence of our being here as Earthkeepers.
Harmonising with nature's symphony
Community begins with communion, with the land, the elements, and each other. When we align with earth's rhythms, we step into a shared memory of unity and co-creation. Every soul contributes a living tone, and together we compose the greater song of harmony.
our origins: a divine encounter
Since childhood, Maurice has shared a deep communion with the natural world, guided by the hawk, his spirit animal.
These noble birds of prey have long served as his protectors and messengers, revealing profound insights throughout his life. The eagle in particular has continued to appear as a messenger, bringing intuitive guidance from the unseen, confirming again and again that he is walking in tune with the Mystery.
One such moment occurred in 2013, when Maurice was spontaneously compelled to drop to the floor to photograph a great bird showing its wings, the very image behind this story. It was an unexplainable encounter that stayed with him, and it opened the call to stay with the Mystery.
Then, on New Year's Eve 2016, an extraordinary moment in Menorca marked the beginning of Earthkeepers Foundation. Four eagles, after circling above, headed straight towards Maurice's car, one nearly entering through the window. This powerful sign stirred something deep within him. Later that night, during meditation, Maurice received the name "Earthkeepers," and envisioned the symbol that would come to represent this movement.
This origin story echoes the archetypal journey of soul initiation: a moment when the ego steps aside, and the soul begins to speak through the Mystery. It marked a passage from observing the pain of a disenchanted world to embracing a sacred calling, to bring forth a culture in resonance with nature's wisdom.
Earthkeepers was born from synchronicity, a soul encounter, and a dedication to serve the earth. This sacred invitation is extended to all who feel called to guardianship, to live in harmony with the more-than-human world, and to walk the path of remembrance, each in their own way.
Our foundational purpose
At the heart of the Earthkeepers Foundation's mission is a commitment to restore humanity's place within the wider web of life, and to honour the earth as a living, intelligent entity.
Each person possesses a unique soul note, a sacred essence and creative expression through which their being contributes to life's unfolding. This golden frequency may manifest as art, healing, guidance, teaching, or embodied presence. At Earthkeepers, we honour and support the emergence of these soul offerings, not as isolated gifts, but as living threads in the great weaving of remembrance and cultural renewal.
Our core objectives
As stated in our official charter, we are here to:
- Emphasise our sacred bond with nature, highlighting the deep harmony between people and the earth, and the healing power of co-creation with her intelligence.
- Remind humanity of its collective responsibility as stewards, protectors of the earth's universal laws and guardians of her sacred order.
- Raise awareness of our true nature, as human beings in kinship with all life, walking in relationship rather than dominion.
- Support and celebrate co-creative living, making visible how we can align with earth's intelligence in all facets of society and daily life.
- Inspire a life dedicated to serving the earth, recognising her as the source of all creation and the foundation from which everything arises.
These principles are not merely abstract ideals, they are a living framework guiding all we offer, share, and embody as Earthkeepers.
Our vision and mission
our vision
We envisage a world fully attuned to the symphony of nature, where each person lives as a conscious steward of the earth, in service to life's unfolding beauty.
our mission
To rekindle humanity's sacred bond with the earth, by building a global community founded on love, harmony, and unity.
We serve as instruments, in tune with nature, playing our part in the most beautiful symphony of life on earth.
Who we welcome
Earthkeepers is for those who feel the call to go beyond separation and into deeper belonging. Whether you are just emerging from a profound inward season of transformation, or have long walked this sacred path, you are welcome here. We especially welcome those on the edge of what we call soul initiation, those who feel the stirrings of a deeper calling, whose focus is shifting from inner seeking to embodying their unique contribution.
You carry a gift that is needed in the whole: a soul note, a golden frequency, a vehicle through which the Mystery moves. Whether expressed through art, healing, teaching, nature service, or another soul-crafted path, Earthkeepers offers a space of remembrance and support as you apprentice to your offering and weave it into the greater harmony of life.
What we offer
Not a program, a gathering. Every gathering opens the same way: a sacred transmission, voice alchemy tuning us to the earth, and to what is present.
From there, we follow what is needed. Sometimes other artists join. Sometimes the circle moves into sound, into movement, into stillness. It is always accessible, offered on donation, so that what unfolds is never decided by what someone can pay.
What holds every gathering is the same: soul-embodied living, humanity in attunement and communion with nature and all of life. The human spirit meeting the human spirit, one soul at a time, in a circle where all souls become one, the dance itself, the symphony of nature, the natural rhythm of the soul, in which we learn to live in harmony with our deepest being.
Our philosophy
Our philosophy is simple: when we live in harmony with nature, we awaken our innate gifts. When we yield to her rhythm, we remember our place. Earthkeepers are not here to dominate nature, but to walk alongside her, as kin, as listeners, as stewards of the sacred.
By living in tune with the earth, by embodying the divine instrument we are, we not only heal ourselves, but also naturally contribute to the healing of the planet.
A global Dutch foundation
Founded in 2017 in the Netherlands, Earthkeepers Foundation began after Maurice received a vision on New Year's night 2016, in Menorca. Four eagles flew overhead, delivering a message: Earthkeepers, unite people to remember the earth as our voice and our place. This vision inspired a movement for Europe and beyond. Today, Earthkeepers is a living field of remembrance, inviting all to reconnect in sacred relationship with the earth.
