Narrative psychology combined with social systems on the "outside" and Jungian understanding of the interior "systems" make a nice pairing. Currently working on soul-related theoretical research establishing that soul is a misnomer. A proper understanding begins with seeing that souling as process is a better beginning to understanding the workings within the Psyche.
Do you belong to any other online Psychology-related communities or orgs? If so, which?
Many, but most are Jungian based.

Hi Ed-
By "candidate" at the Jung Institute, this means I am currently in the program. I am in my 4th year, and will be certified at the end of the program in a few more years. It is a long process with both a personal and professional focus. Very satisfying. Happy to tell you more, if you are interested-

Hi Ed! Thank you so much for the offer of the reading list for the topic of ALCHEMY. I would LOVE to receive the list. Wish I had more time to respond. I am almost at the end of Catherine MacCoun's book. Now I just need to exercise my brain which is another way of saying more meditation. She lists the following processes to go through in order to travel up the "vertical":
Calcination; Dissolution; Separation; Conjunction; Fermentation; Sublimation; Radiation.
Till next time. Lucille

There are lot of opportunities for volunteer work here ranging from teaching English in an intercultural school the NGO is supporting in an indigenous Shipibo community near Pucallpa to helping organize a forum with the indigenous political organizations to discuss the threat of oil exploration on indigenous territory
In addition I am also getting to know who are and who are not the people to drink ayahuasca with if this is also of interest
best wishes Paul
Hi Ed
Thanks for the warm welcome and the positive comments on the NGO Alianza Arkana website:

There is a lot of work to do here (in Pucallpa, Peru) and I hope my participation in these forums will help with that work.
Best wishes Paul
