Ava Lindberg, Ph.D. commented on Depth Alliance's event Online Course: Embodying James Hillman's Alchemical Psychology on Salt, Black, & Blue, with Robert Bosnak & Patricia Berry
"The emphasis on essentializing at the end of the lecture..."the fixed inflammable essence of a love that once flamed to heaven."  This creates some sadness in me...do I want all this salt, do I want more sulfur, or do I want more dissolution of salt?"

  • Hello, Ava. Welcome to the online depth psychology community! I'm so glad you've joined us, and grateful for Susan's recommendation. There are many Pacifica students, faculty, and alumni here--myself included--so you're in good company.

    As you may know, we currently have over 1700 members from all over the world and we're growing. I hope as you explore the community a bit you find a dynamic group of like-minded people who are all deeply drawn by the field of depth psychology. While there are many Jungian analysts and clinical psychologists here, our members come from many walks of life including artists, writers, doctors, scientists, healing professionals, counselors, students, business people, etc--so there is much cross-disciplinary knowledge and experience here to be shared.

    On that note, there are many opportunities to engage as you browse the site. When you're ready to jump in, please feel free to post a topic for discussion in the forum, respond to someone else's post, or share a link to an article or web site you like.

    Also you may want to consider joining the discussion in the online book club if you haven't already: In November & December we're featuring "Madness at the Gates of the City: The Myth Of American Innocence,” a mythological and cultural look at our current belief systems with Barry Spector. Since the Book Club is all done via writing in an open forum, you can participate at your own level and schedule--and you can join the discussion anytime, even if you don't have the book.

    In case you need detailed help getting started and navigating the site, you can use the following link----http://www.depthpsychologyalliance.com/page/navigating-the-site----and please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions at all! I look forward to seeing you around the community. ~Bonnie Bright, Founder
