12 Facets of Union

Immerse into the Mysteries of Archetypal Relationship

Next session is October 21, 2023

1 Year – 4 Seasons – 8 Archetypes – 4 Ancient Stories of Love

Join us for this deep engagement with  potent relational archetypes and their myths. As we journey together through the seasons you will engage in each archetype as a means of  finding both wider expression and deeper connection. You will discover the innate wisdom held in each representation and the lessons of their relationships. You will explore their stories of relationship as a source of reflection and a means of deepening who you are.

Bringing together my Jungian background, the deity merging teachings of my lineage and the embodiment practices Steve and I have developed over 20+ years of teaching, this monthly immersion offers a deeply personalized journey.

 

This latest exploration of Archetypes and their relational stories opens new portals into our inner landscape, deepening our ability to integrate and embody a variety of expressions as a means of creating a richer inner – and outer – life.

 

We bring each archetype – female as well as male – to life through lectures, partnered processes, embodiment exercises, guided practices and considerations. In the third session of each season we will explore their relational stories as a means of inquiry into relational, erotic and societal patterns within us.

 

In Session 1of each season you will discover your unique embodied expression within each female archetype. Session 2 leads you to examine your inner and outer relationship to each male archetype.

 

In Session 3 we will explore the myth connected to the archetypes, focusing on the sometimes submerged, sometimes subversive – yet always instructive –  erotic aspects of these  ancient stories. These myths serve as a means of exploring themes of inner union as well as in our relationships and beyond.

 

This year is designed to offer the  deeper underpinnings of archetypal work, allowing you to create your  “perfect medicine” to integrate the teaching of each archetype into your relationships, your life and outer expression in the world.

More About Archetypes

                        

Archetypes rise from the unconscious and can be utilized as  portals to empowerment. Brought to life through your body, each  archetype enriches your personal expression in all areas of your life.

 

We will explore these portals into fuller expression through the lens  of the seasons, following the path of moon and sun, embodying shadow  and light, ebb and tide, cycles of growth and dormancy.

 

Each archetype holds the collective power and knowledge that resides  in all of us and working with the archetype awakens the attributes and  wisdom innate to you.

 

The power and knowledge of these collective energies becomes  available through the genius of the body. In the body, we each carry  instinctive information that is far deeper than what we can conceive of  in our conscious minds. By engaging with the stories and images of each  archetype, we invoke the lived experience of all women before us and  connect ourselves to the deeper collective wisdom.

 

Our bodies learn through resonance. By connecting with the positive  attributes of an archetype, we invoke those parts in us naturally. By  exploring the shadow sides we understand deeper layers of our  motivation. By bringing the relational and erotic aspects of their myths  into our bodily expression we inform deeper parts of our psyche. Our  collective experiences transmit powerfully in our bodies, infusing our  daily life with the fullness of expression.

 

Whether you are completely new to feminine embodiment or have  experienced archetypes or deities before, this course is designed as a  stand alone offering. The material is designed to support you in  uncovering your next unique layer of expression and engagement.
