Awakening to Oneness: Active Imagination with Readings from the Red Book, with Susan Tiberghien (online writing workshop)
The spirit of the depths spoke to me: “You are an image of the unending world.” p.230, The Red Book, C.G. Jung
There has grown up in me a feeling of kinship with all things. p.392, Memories, Dreams, Reflections, C.G. Jung
Awakening to the oneness of creation starts with awakening to our own oneness. Jung took this path in 1913 when, having lost his way at midlife, he went into the underworld to confront the unconscious. He called out to his forgotten soul and began his journey toward wholeness. His journey of individuation. Reading excerpts from The Red Book, we will follow Jung in his imagined encounters on his way toward wholeness. Practicing active imagination, we will look to find our own way. “There is only one way and that is your way.” We will see how Etty Hillesum and Thomas Merton found their way within themselves, enabling them to reach outwards. We will embrace not only our own oneness, but the oneness of all creation.
