<p>Four Editorial corrections:<br/>1) In the section of the discussion about the ‘love triangle’ between Sabina Spielrein, Carl Jung, and Emma Jung, the guest mistakenly substituted Freud’s name for Jung. 2) In the story of the medieval couple, the heroine’s name was Eloise–not Evelyn. 3) The poem “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind” was not written by Eloise, but rather centuries later by Alexander Pope as an homage to Eloise. 4) Lastly, the song in the “Graduate” was Paul Simon’s “The Sound of Silence”–not the ‘Song of Silence.’<span id="more-6462"></span></p>

<p>Raelle Kaia is a mental health counselor currently practicing as an outpatient therapist and crisis response therapist at Jackson County Mental Health in Medford, Oregon. She completed her clinical training in the Master of Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program at Southern Oregon University, and has also studied at the University of Idaho, where she earned a Juris Doctorate with an undergraduate degree in Philosophy. Ms. Kaia became a member of the Oregon Bar in 2007, but found herself called away from the legal profession soon thereafter, enlisting as a Peace Corps Volunteer in the African nation of Malawi in 2009, followed by a stint as an English Teacher in Beijing, China in 2012.</p>
<p>In her early days as a philosophy student, Raelle began developing an approach to life and learning called Creative Philosophy, which integrates philosophical inquiry with spirituality, psyche, and artistic expression. This path led to her development as a songwriter, author, and counselor, and awareness of her transgender identity, leading to a mid-life gender transition in 2016.</p>
<p>She published her first books, The Pandastan Trilogy, in 2014-2015, a series of contemporary fantasy novels that address the current planetary crisis of ecology, technology, and spirit, and maintains a home for her ongoing creative work at pandastan.com.</p>

<p>Gerald (Jerry) Trumbule, B.S. Univ. of Md. 1965, M.S. Univ. of Pa., 1970, has been a neuropsychological researcher (Walter Reed Army Institute of Research and NASA, Univ. of Md.) and Assistant Professor of Psychology, Univ. of Toronto, 1970. Disgusted with academia, he moved to Denver in 1971 where he founded Sebastian High School, a grade-less experiential learning center, founded the Western States Film Institute, with two winners of the Student Academy Awards, and, in 1980, founded Denver’s first computer training center (ECC). Now retired and living in obscurity, he is a videographer and blogger (DenverDirect.tv), where he expounds on local politics and pollution, including the legalization of marijuana in that state. He continues his life-long interest in the workings of the human brain, exploring his own brain through hypnagogia and REM sleep, and hopes someday to upload the contents of his brain directly to the internet. Jerry is a return guest and can also be heard on Shrink Rap Radio episodes #280, #266, #262, #259, #257, #172, #167, #161, #155, #149, #143, #136, #130, #128, #126, #124, #122, #100, #4, and #3.</p>

<p></p>
<p><a title="link to Bosnak site" href="http://santabarbarahealingsanctuary.com/" target="_blank">Robert Bosnak</a> is a Dutch Jungian psychoanalyst, and diplomate of the C.G.Jung Institute, who trained in Zurich, Switzerland from 1971 to 1977.</p>
<p>In the late 1970′s he pioneered a radically new method of dreamwork, based loosely on the work of C.G.Jung, especially on Jung’s technique of active imagination and his studies of Alchemy.</p>
<p>From the point of view of the dreaming state of mind, dreams are real events in real environments. Based on this notion, Robert Bosnak developed methods to re-enter dreams by inducing a hypnagogic state–a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping–through a process of careful questioning. His techniques are now applied worldwide, by therapists, artists, actors, and others interested in the creative imagination. His first book, A Little Course in Dreams was translated into 12 languages. Since then he has written Christopher’s Dreams: Dreaming and Living with AIDS and Tracks in the Wilderness of Dreaming in which he describes his techniques in detail. His in-depth work has been effective both individually and in groups and easily adapts to the Web because of its simple rules and group emphasis.</p>
<p>A 30-hour course on the Red Book is being offered to you by Cyberdreamwork and the Jung Platform and supported by Depth Alliance with an online discussion forum. <span><strong><a title="JungPlatform site" href="http://www.jungplatform.com/audio-lectures" target="_blank">Click here to go to the JungPlatform site</a> and use our special code for a 25% discount: DRDAVE</strong></span><br/><span id="more-2230"></span><br/>When cyberdreamwork.com opened its site on the Web in 1997, Robert Bosnak introduced a new, global, real-time, method of doing group dreamwork over the Internet.</p>
<p>He is past president of the International Association for the Study of Dreams IASD, and was visiting professor of clinical psychology at Kyoto University in Japan. After having been in private practice in Cambridge, Massachusetts for 26 years, he is currently based in California at the <a title="link to Sanctuary" href="http://santabarbarahealingsanctuary.com/" target="_blank">Santa Barbara Healing Sanctuary</a>.</p>

<p>Craig has walked a lot of the landscape of depth psychology since he first coined the term "terrapsychology" nearly a decade ago.

<p class="style6">Craig is the author of 8 books and editor of 2 anthologies, including <em><strong>Rebearths: Conversations with a World Ensouled</strong></em><strong>, the <a href="http://depthinsights.com/pages/book_club/book_club_jun2012_depthpsych.html" title="June Depth Psychology Alliance online book club" target="_blank">June selection for the Depth Psychology Alliance online book club</a></strong>.

If I had to choose one myth that explains Jung's theory of individuation, I would select the myth of Osiris. It has all the essential elements of the individuation process including separation, integration and transcendence.</p>

<p><strong>Description:</strong></p>
<p>Dennis Patrick Slattery addresses several of Joseph Campbell's wide-ranging descriptions of mythology to reveal how myths represent psychological patterns in symbolic and metaphorical language. Mythology is the natural language of the psyche and is alive in each of us. Dr. Slattery helps you understand this language in your own life, which can lead to a more satisfying and conscious way of living.<br/> <br/> Dr. Dennis Patrick Slattery is a brilliant scholar, a dynamic teacher, a poet and an author of numerous publications relevant to depth psychology. After earning his Ph.D. at the Dallas University, he has accumulated 41 years of teaching.</p>

The first post is a paper I wrote Seeing Through Hillman's Archetypal Psychological lens of my first experience in Haiti after the Earthquake as part of documentary trio witnessing the creation of a non profit called Helping Hands Noramise in Limbe, Haiti. <div><br/></div>
<div>My main intent is to begin a conversation on how Psyche can be held and expressed:</div>
<div><br/></div>
<div>To continue to challenge humanity to really look at our small moments to see how they relate to global horrors and potential joy. </div>
<div><br/></div>
<div>To re engage with the Mythic forms as they are manifest today and to see what we have to learn from and with them.</div>
<div><br/></div>
<div>Finally, to remember the Natural world of which we humans are a part. </div>
<div><br/></div>
<div>So please, read, allow the posts to be portals beyond our present moments yet access points to pieces of ourselves that resonate beyond man made boarders, and hopefully we as a global community can re vision how such Catastrophic Experiences can be potential our guides.</div>
