My Ladies! I have never had a busier summer, and I have never looked forward to fall as much as I do now. I am so excited to dig into this book with everyone! Because it’s the kick off of our new Book Club season, I’d like to have as many of us be able to attend as possible. How does Thursday, Sep 26 work for everyone?
Susan, thanks so much for taking the initiative with this forum, and I hope we can get a day that works good for everyone. Talk soon!-
Perfect! Let’s shoot for Thursday, Sep 26 as our Fall Book Club kickoff and we can decide if we want to do weekly, bi-weekly, etc moving into October. Mylene will update the Member Sessions with the joining link and I can’t wait to see everyone.
Let’s at least read Skywoman Falling from the first section, and consider these questions for discussion:- How does the story of Skywoman compare to the other stories of Creation?
- What gifts do you feel you can offer Mother Earth?
- What creates a strong relationship between people and Earth?

Levels is where some very interesting things take place (looking at you, Horse Trading) and I can’t wait to have the discussion.Here’s the link for tonight’s session: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82765494276?pwd=bWVlMzNERmhnZzN0R3VtcWpZV2pKdz09

MemberMay 15, 2024 at 3:00 pm in reply to: Inner Work: Using Dreams and Active Imagination for Personal GrowthExcellent. Thanks so much to each of you for your kind words and for your understanding! It’s a big day in the life of my ”little” girl, and a big day for me too. Feels like a milestone that would never be reached, but here I am all of a sudden. I look forward to catching up next week! 🙏
I’ll post some pictures here when they’re available.📸

Ladies! My lovely daughter is graduating from High School. As you know, we home school her and we were able to get her into a place that will let her walk with a graduating class. This came together at the last minute, and, unfortunately, it lands on Thursday. 😔
I propose that we cancel this upcoming session, and combine this week’s reading with the final chapter and we’ll do a grand finale next week. Alternatively, if one of you feels called to lead this week’s club, I can arrange for you to be the host.
If you can reply to this or message me directly to let me know you received it or to let me know your thoughts, I will be grateful. Either way, I look forward to seeing you next week! 🙏

MemberApril 11, 2024 at 3:22 pm in reply to: Inner Work: Using Dreams and Active Imagination for Personal GrowthHere are few things to remember for basic Jungian dream interpretation:
- Everything in the dream represents an inner state. People in dreams aren’t those people, but rather are aspects of yourself.
- Animals may represent instinctive or lower-level aspects.
- Stones, circular objects, and mandalas tend to be symbols of the self. Symbols of the self may also be people who have a luminous quality.
- A place in a dream may refer to a state of mind we need to get to or move out of.
- The shadow is a figure of the same sex as the dreamer. The shadow may portray negative qualities that we don’t want to admit to ourselves (a sullen person might be our own tendency toward depressive states), or it could be a positive quality that we are blind to (such as a confident speaker in a dream revealing our hidden aptitude for leadership).
- A man’s anima will be a female figure, and a woman’s animus a male figure. The anima/animus figure often functions as a psychopomp, leading us to our true self.

I can’t wait to learn and discover with you in a few days, and just a reminder, we will be discussing the chapters or sections called Inner Work: Seeking the Unconscious and Alternative Realities: The World of Dreaming, the Realm of Imagination. Bring your thoughts, inspirations, questions, or just your presence as we dive into this great book! -

I want everyone to feel safe enough to share what’s going on! My job will be to keep us on track.
Keep reading and growing and sharing what these books are revealing! 🙏

MemberApril 3, 2024 at 3:20 pm in reply to: Inner Work: Using Dreams and Active Imagination for Personal GrowthIt’s been weird, but I’ve been dreaming a lot too! It’s pretty amazing because I don’t normally dream or if I do, I don’t remember it. I’ve been taking care to write them down and the deeper we get into this book, the more I’m finding I can do with them. It’s not an easy process, but I’m excited to dig in. I don’t think I can answer your question, yet, but I’m hoping that the more we explore this book, maybe some answers will come.

MemberMarch 3, 2024 at 7:09 pm in reply to: Inner Work: Using Dreams and Active Imagination for Personal GrowthI’m so glad you asked! I was thinking since we have 3 sessions this month and I’d like to do Part 1 of the book this month, if we read the first chapter, Waking Up to the Unconscious, we can chat through it on Thursday, and then we can do 2 chapters for each of the next sessions. I’ve been loving the book so far and I can’t wait to dig into with you!
