Discussion Group for Women WISEWOMAN FORUM Catherine Grace Morris Feng Shui from a Depth-Psychological Perspective Saturday, January 17, 2009 Feng Shui is a depth psychological tool which unearths a room or a home’s hidden stories, invisible others, dreams, and fantasies. The room/home can be seen as our unconscious and Feng Shui a portal to the messages of the unconscious. You are invited to bring in pictures of your rooms [not a requirement]. We will do a Feng Shui analysis of your unconscious using your space. The process is great fun! Participants always go home with a surplus of newly released psychic energy with which to work on their spaces. Future Wisewoman Forums: February 21 March 21 April 11 May 16 |

An Evening With ... Ileen Brennan Root, Ph.D THE VISION, THE ALLING: Entering into Archetypal Space Friday, November 21 Shamanic traditions all over the world have spoken of the Realm of the Storytellers or Mythmakers as a region within alternate reality that we can visit in order to begin to collect our personal myths. In this program, I will share my own personal mythic quest in search of the archetypal Dark Goddess, who had entered my psyche and refused to leave. This journey has spanned most of my life, culminating most recently with the completion of my doctorate in depth psychology. Purchase tickets in the |

Lecture Judy B. Gardner and M. Starr Costello, Ph.D CIRCLING THE COSMOS ON A DREAM Friday, December 5 For fifteen years Judy Gardiner has been translating a powerful dream series, illumining correspondences between personal dream events and objective developments in science and in the natural environment. She will share her dream journey from its inception as a path to deeper self-understanding, to her discovery through dream symbolism of biological and geological principles, and finally to the direct experience of cosmic totality. Melanie Starr Costello, Jungian Analyst and Historian of Religion, will join Judy, offering her reflections on the cosmic dream from the standpoints of Jungian dream theory and visionary traditions of the European Middle Ages. Workshop DREAMING THE COSMOS Saturday, December 6 As we engage in the interlocking struggle of self-survival and species-survival, numinous dreams of nature and cosmos help us transcend the polarities behind our alienation from nature and from each other. We will explore the images, symbols and callings stemming from dreams of nature and natural phenomena, environmental challenges, as well as dream revelations of the interconnectedness of psyche and cosmos. Participants are encouraged to share their own dreams containing nature and cosmic motifs; we will discuss dreams containing archetypal themes with little or no personal content. Note: We intend to offer CEUs for Social Workers for both events. Purchase tickets in the |

Course Bill Dols, MDiv, Ph.D IN A DARK TIME, THE EYE BEGINS TO SEE 5 Tuesdays The five evenings are an invitation to consider the darkness around, between, and within, of which Rilke writes "I love the dark hours of my being . . . [when] the knowledge comes to me that I have space within me for a second, timeless, larger life." Reading between the lines of our lives, as well as of ancient and modern texts from Bible and Washington Post, the invitation is to enjoy poetry and story, exploring how the shadows of our political, social, and psychological landscape offer us, as it did Rilke, "faith in the night."

Lecture/Workshop Phyllis La Plante, MSW, LICSW THE MYTH OF ATALANTA: Abandonment in the Feminine Psyche, Phyllis LaPlante Friday, November 14 The Greek myth of Atalanta, a fierce huntress who was abandoned in infancy, illustrates how this trauma might play out in a woman's psyche. However, a myth is an archetypal representation of inherent patterns of development, and a human life is much more particular and complicated. By translating the myth of Atalanta into psychological language, we will explore dreams and life events wherein aspects of the myth are constellated, thereby gaining insight into the trauma of abandonment.
