In a time when Mother Earth is threatened and threatening our lives and habitats with fire, flood, tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes and volcanoes, we need Her poets to remind us who we are and where we come from—Earthlings made of Her red clay. To worship our Earth as a Goddess, to know Her as a living being, is to return to the wisdom of our ancestors who knew, along with Jung, that the Earth has a soul. Reading the poets of Earth Magic, writing under their influence, offers us a way back to the “Unus Mundus”—the One World— and weaves our souls and our writings into the tapestry of all creation. The poets we will read are Aimée Nezhukumatathil, Ross Gay, and Lucille Lang Day

For a century, physicists have wrestled with the question of what makes the reality we perceive, given that quantum descriptions are indefinite. Spatially separated events may be correlated, without the possibility of causation. It turns out that at a microscopic level, objects are not separate but inextricably entwined, part of a Unus Mundus. 

How do you work with dreams in clinical practice? Does it differ from one dream to the next, or from one patient to another? Does the dream change in either the telling or in the hearing? This two-session seminar is offered to clinicians to deepen their approach to working with dreams.

This image-rich presentation will weave the story of the long recovery from a severe heart attack with 20 years of art, stonework, dreams, and Jungian commentary. The work will be related to alchemical processes, and the symbolism of stones, spirals and labyrinths.

The contemporary framing story of the elder heroine’s remembered love stimulated by found objects on the ship (comb, mirror, and a drawing) exemplifies the process by which the anima develops to Sophia wisdom.
