A Creative Approach to Reconciliation
with Vicki Burke
Keys to the Golden City
…a road map home.
We have reached an amazing point in time, a new window of opportunity when anything and everything is possible. Never have we, as a culture, been so lost but at the same time so ripe for change.
“When I heard the phrase ‘Art will save the world’ it made my heart sing.”
As we begin to understand how the Arts open us up to our emotions, we can begin the journey of reconciliation. Healing our inner conflict and learning to love ourselves.
The key to unlocking our hearts is remembering how to ‘play.’ Playing creatively frees up the fixed, frozen energy caused by trauma and pain.
Reconnecting with our creativity brings us back in connection and right relation with ourselves and Mother Earth.
What is your key?
Walking the seasonal cycles and being immersed in her wisdom inspired Vicki to turn her hand from musician to writing. In 2017 she published her first book Journey to the Golden City and spoken word journey with song Keys to the Golden City.
Having presented her reconciliation play, Return to the Golden City, as an online performance and the inner reconciliation workshops that accompanied it in 2020, she then published her second book, Beauty in the Beast – Facing our Collective Shadow and the CD Beauty in the Beast – a Musical Journey into the Labyrinth in 2022.

The Golden City – from the Book of Revelation, is not a place we will arrive at but where we can all meet in our hearts.
What’s New This Year
This year sees Vicki bringing the fruits of her explorations into ‘The Field – Exploring ideas Beyond Right and Wrong’ into a new Interfaith questionnaire. The title is taken from the Rumi poem which she has also set to music. Following over a year of gathering two Interfaith discussion groups together to find ways to be comfortable with and celebrate their differences, she is now taking this on a different path.
She is using this questionnaire to explore her assumptions that most people hold similar views and dreams for life, but that centuries of passed down fear and trauma has limited our ability to love fully and has shut down our natural connection to each other and Mother Earth. In this way she believes we can find common ground that has been lost over the years.
Vicki will be continuing to perform her third project, the last in the trilogy, which she has called Crowning Eve, a musical journey through the chakras. Look out for events and ways in which you can hear this new performance with song.
We cannot walk this path alone.
