You don't have to know where to put a comma or what a conjunction is in order to use writing as a tool for personal expression. We all tend to get swamped with everyday responsibilities, stresses and work.  As critical as the two out of three of them are we also need time for ourselves.  Time to nurture our love of writing. Once a month we'll hold a themed wor …

This group will gather monthly (we hope) to discuss archetypal, imaginal and spiritual psychology. These discussions will include considerations of published works, videos and blogs by post-Jungian thinkers like Robert Sardello, James Hillman, Mary Watkins, Paul Kugler, and Stephen Simmer, among many others. Central to this multivariant movement is an attempt to rethink psyche as soul. The main influence on the development of archetypal, imaginal and archetypal psychology is Carl Jung's analytic …

We've grown and expanded! When we started our group only Augmented Reality (AR) was our rallying point. But Virtual Reality (VR) has been added to our charter. Why?

The fruition of this path is not simply the realization of this depth, but the actualization of True Nature in all its various dimensio …
