History

​

Before establishing the Center for Metaphysical Ecology, we explored several organizations and ideas. Each of these steps was needed to bring the clarity we currently have. Although the story may have limited value, it may help explain why our names are associated with different organizations.

 

Jeanne and Jaap first appeared in 1999 under The Center for Personal and Planetary Transformation. At that time, our focus was on healing, research on Earth Energies, and crystal skulls.

 

Due to changes in our way of working and the expansion of our services, we changed our name in 2004 to Lemurantis. We also created Metaphysical Ecology in Jaap’s name. We merged these two organizations under Lemurantis and Metaphysical Ecology when Jeanne ceased doing business.

 

In 2017, together with Gary Palisch, we founded the Universal Center for Metaphysical Ecology, UCME, a non-profit 501 (c) (3). The purpose was to create a platform to raise awareness about metaphysical ecology and support the development of programs through funding and marketing.

In 2020, UCME founded the Crystalline Movement. Many people saw this project as separate because it had a different website.

 

In 2021, we realized that the complexity of organizations and websites created confusion, which diminished the power of the message of metaphysical ecology. It also became too time-consuming. We also learned that the non-profit was not the optimal structure to continue to support metaphysical ecology. These realizations led to the creation of one organization, the Center for Metaphysical Ecology, with a clear message conveyed through a single website.

 

With the expansion of online courses and videos on YouTube, the idea of creating a platform for teaching metaphysical ecology became increasingly solid. This led to the reorganization of the website in 2025, with a focus on our continuously expanding Programs, through which we share aspects of metaphysical ecology.
