\u201cYou can be a puppet of the archetypes, or you can be a participant in how they unfold according to your level of consciousness, what you have integrated, what you have faced in yourself.\u201d\u00a0 \u2013<\/em>\u00a0Richard Tarnas<\/span><\/p>\n

In these days of the Great Unraveling, what triggers you? Is this an awakening of your inner reptile or a glimpse into your unconscious? Are these temper-fraying times a divine call to an evolution of consciousness, both personally and collectively? What is it in each of us that is on the brink of transformation?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

No one would disagree with James Hillman\u2019s statement \u201cWe’ve had a hundred years of psychotherapy, and the world’s getting worse!” (Well, more than 100 years.) Have we finally reached the point of surrender? What would it take to exit this \u201cskin encapsulated ego\u201d\u00a0 (Alan Watts) and become porous to what is beckoning? <\/span><\/p>\n

What is getting under our skin might<\/em> be a call to escape it. Who creates mythologies\/worldviews? Do the archetypes have totalitarian power over us or is there a mysterium coniunctionis<\/em> being offered?<\/span><\/p>\n

On Friday evening, I talk about my book and what I see emerging in the field of Depth Psychology. What is being asked of us in these dystopian days? <\/span><\/p>\n

On Saturday you will have an opportunity to create safe communal space for your own explorations. Saturday\u2019s exercises come from an experiential workshop I created called \u201cRevisioning Archetypes.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
