I envisioned them as peer-run circles—“creative clusters”—where people would serve one another as believing mirrors, uniting with the …

Central to this multivariant movement is an attempt to rethink psyche as soul. The main influence on the development of archetypal, imaginal and archetypal psychology is Carl Jung's analytic …
