Good afternoon JD Stephen - thank you for responding back to me, inviting and I agree we are a good match for an on-line, colleague support and friendship. I am very novel concerning Jung and looks like you are an elder (wise) concerning his knowlege base - lucky me.
I do look forward to our depth conversations and would love to read, engage in lively conversations concerning your work and most defininately encourage you to bring your life long deliberations to fruition! Great goal and bravo for you. I have a couple of pieces of work I would like to complete also before death. Regards Linda
Hi J.D. Stephen! (I don't know which to call you--but it sounds good all together :) Happy new year, and welcome to the online depth psychology community. I'm so glad you've joined us and I'm amazed to meet someone who's read all the CW. What a feat! I hope you can share some of your insight here!
As you may know, we currently have over 1800 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 various 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.
