Welcome Jacqueline,
Another Pacifica-ite. Wonderful. Glad you found and joined the Alliance. I miss being at Pacifica and the good folks there. With all the forums, blogs, and groups I believe there is much here to catch your interests. Would enjoy hearing how you are experiencing Pacifica as well. Again, welcome and I look forward to your posts.

Hi Jacqueline. Welcome to the Alliance. As you probably know, there are many Pacifica faculty, students, and alumni here, myself included (just starting dissertation!) so you are in good company.
Hopefully, once you have a chance to explore the online community a bit, you'll find a dynamic group of likeminded people who are all fascinated by the field of depth psychology. While there are many Jungian analysts and clinical psychologists here, our members come from many walks of life--artists, writers, doctors, healing professionals, counselors, students, business people, etc--so there is much cross-disciplinary knowledge and experience here to be shared.
On that note, I hope you'll find opportunities to engage as you browse the vast content and interact with others. You may want to consider joining the online book club if you haven’t already—There's a new author each month, and you can jump in at anytime and participate at whatever level you wish.
Even if you don't have the book for this month, it's all done via writing in an open forum, so you can read all the comments that have gone on so far and get a feel for what's happening. In February, we are featuring a wonderful new book from Jungian Analyst Erel Shalit," The Cycle of Life", as well as a special online study group on Astrology with longtime astrologer Kathleen Burt. March will bring a new book from Dr. Michael Conforti, a specialist in archetypes and new sciences, "Field, Form, And Fate".
