As a result, we are experiencing high levels of anxiety about the human future, which I am calling \u2018extinction anxiety\u2019. This anxiety is so strong and pervasive that mighty engines of cultural repression are at work to numb our feelings and prevent recognition of the object of our fear and our worst nightmare \u2014 the extinction of the human species. But if we are willing to turn toward this psychic soup, if we can learn how to ride the dark emotions that arise rather than turn away from them, then, I suggest, we will be given the seeds of a new revelation. I want to make the claim that apocalyptic imagery and extinction anxiety are promptings from the sentience of the earth herself, inviting human beings to walk through a threshold toward personal, cultural and planetary renewal. Jungian depth psychology offers a therapeutic frame of reference to understand how to navigate these rough waters with courage, resilience and grace.<\/p>\n<p>Randy Morris, Ph.D., is Professor Emeritus at Antioch University Seattle where he taught in the BA Liberal Studies Program for thirty years and was the coordinator of the Psychology and Spiritual Studies concentrations. Prior to his career at Antioch University, Randy taught K-12 students for 10 years, including 3 years at the Hiroshima International School in Hiroshima, Japan. He was a vision quest guide for many years and is a Certified Sage-ing Leader with Sage-ing International. Currently he is the Co-President of The C.G. Jung Society of Seattle, bringing the insights of depth psychology to bear on global rites of passage and the dark night of the species soul.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HHvHmmIg8gU\">View on YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Randy Morris &#8211; The Therapeutics of Extinction Anxiety May 16, 2024 at 12:42AM As a culture we are swimming in a psychic soup of apocalyptic stories, images and symbols of nuclear war, social injustice, anthropogenic climate change, and global pandemics.
