Howling with writer, teacher and archetypal psychologist Michael Sipiora about the political relevance of James Hillman’s archetypal psychology and what it means to be a psychological citizen
“Speaking out of the Ancient, Renaissance, and Romantic traditions that animate his archetypal psychology, Hillman calls for each therapist’s room to become a cell of revolution, heresy, and beauty rather than a globule of self-improvement; a place where imagination moves from building castles in sand to constructive visions for the real city; a place of outrage at social injustice rather than adaptation; a place of mourning over ecological destruction rather than of working through depression; a place of shame over failed participation in the present rather shame over past abuses to oneself; and of cosmic involvement rather than of transference and countertransference entanglements.”
