Midway upon the journey of our life, I found myself within a forest dark, for the straightforward pathway had been lost

Become Who You Are
Thank you to my premium members for a lovely March online class in the Virtual Café Exclusive Membership.
This year, our classes will all be inspired by classic philosophies which we will use to look at our lives, at books, and movies, and archetypes
The March class explores the Spring Equinox as an invitation to go deeper into what Carl Jung calls the individuation process—how light and shadow coexist, and how to integrate all sides of who we are to become more whole. In this time of constant upheaval, we may even view our collective challenges as invitations to explore deeper self-awareness and transformation.
Here’s Your Content for March:
Individuation as a lifelong journey (Jung’s basic theory)
The shadow, anima/animus, and Jung’s primary archetypes
The Equinox as a symbolic threshold
