Please share a little about yourself by way of introduction. What draws you to Depth Psychology and what are you looking for from this community?
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.

Thanks for the welcome and the invitation to join Jung in the South group. I am looking forward to this experience with all of you.
Oops!! I forgot I changed the name!!!! (Well, relocated the blog) My blog is now just my name --- http://debbridge.wordpress.com My spirituality has moved from Catholicism to Buddhism to Shamanism .....
Hi Ed,
Thank you for your kind words.
I am also very interested in Chinese methology.
And I firmly believe that depth psychology and Chinese mythology are essentially the same, because there is only one truth.
Taoism, Buddism, christian wisdom, etc. are only manifestations of such truth.
I am looking forward to learning a lot here.
Regarding 'The TRUTH; I have always been intrigued by the philosophical relativity of truth. The world was flat at one point in time, just as many things we hold to be true right now will inevitably be proven incorrect..like what is occurring right now @ CERN regarding the speed of light and the laws of physics: http://www.marketwatch.com/story/spectacular-aspects-of-neutrinos-a...
As I wade through therapy and realize that my own mental defense mechanisms have been ardently working to keep me convinced that many truths from my past are not affecting me and arent even worthy of consideration. Therein I find, yet again, interesting parallels between life and mind.
Thanks, Ed. Glad to be here. Very excited to have found this site :)
Thank you, Ed, for sharing a warm welcome and a vivid image.
My Facebook tagline reads "I'm a citizen of Planet Earth." My life is actually quite well-grounded in both Iowa and Arizona. But I do spend a lot of time in the air getting from one place to another.
When I read your comment, I thought of Dorothy on her way to Oz; and the persistent but erroneous legend that Mary's house from Nazareth was actually relocated in Walsingham, England. A similar and equally incorrect legend persists about Salisbury House & Gardens in Des Moines.
It's interesting to reflect on what part of the collective psyche wants to believe that our homes can be transported "brick by brick" from their primal locations . . .
Hi Ed
Thanks for the welcome. I am still finding my feet and I would love to list my book somewhere, but still have to figure out how to do it.
Kind regards
Helene

Ed,
Thank you for your welcome. I am grateful that Adele referred me to this site at the recent MTW conference. I am finding much to dig into and relate to. While I am new to Jungian study, it is deeply familiar and the more I learn, the more I realize my life journey has been a Jungian inspired one without even knowing it! I look forward to soaking in the wise teachings from all who use this site.
In gratitude for the journey,
Ginger
LOL, silly me. I did not realize you were referring to the Jung South on this site. I'm new here. I've found it and joined. Thank you.
