MSS 100 - The Shamanic Archetype Workshop
A workshop to completely map out your "personal constellation" of the 25 facets of the shamanic archetype. Determine precisely how this universal archetype is attempting to manifest in you... in an utterly unique way. Discover your "shamanic specialization" so you can take a step toward manifesting your soul's calling. Learn the core facets influencing your soul, so you can further clarify your purpose. Discover the facets that are shaping and inspiring your central facets, so you can understand the complex ways in which you are being influenced by the shamanic archetype, and by your culture. Map out your personal constellation as a personal MANDALA Or go further, and map out your Personal Mandala as a 3D TORUS. Create a MASTER SYMBOL of your soul's unique shamanic signature, that unifies past, present, and future, that gives you invaluable guidance, transmitted from your Higher Self, through your soul, to your ego. Dive deeply into each of the 25 facets of the shamanic archetype in a series of lectures filled with valuable knowledge about modern manifestations of the shamanic impulse. Get TA support throughout your process.
MSS 103 - Personal Mythmaking Workshop A workshop to guide you through the adventurous alchemical process of diving into your creative subconscious and forging your personal “guiding myth”. Tap into the magical power of mythology, in the world around you, and from the depths of your own soul. Forge a narrative, transmitted by your Higher Self, that gives you a constant source of spiritual wisdom, guidance, orientation, and encouragement - a narrative that makes sense of your past, clarifies your present, and prepares you to face the future. Like the Shamanic Archetype Workshop, this workshop is built around the process of creating of an actual “soul artifact”. By the end of this, you will have a genuine piece of personalized (sacred) mythology - a permanent guidepost for your journey. Anyone can do this. Everyone benefits from doing this.
MSS 104 - Jung the Elder An in-depth investigation of Jung as a prototypical “modern western shaman” and the first truly “modern” soul scientist. Understand why he is the first elder of the school and the key to unlocking the hermetic lineage for the modern seeker. Learn the magical connection between “shamanism”, “alchemy” “psychology” and “mythology” so you can harness this timeless wisdom to guide your own initiatory journey. Unlock the golden chain of “Hermetic wisdom” that connects us from Jung, back through the European alchemists, earlier back to the Gnostics, and even earlier, to the great Initiates of the Mysteries of the ancient world.
MSS 105 - Revisioning Jungian Psychology for the 21st Century Jung’s Psychology was on the vanguard of 20th century thought. And today, it remains firmly rooted in the primeval wisdom of the ages.
But we’re now in the 21st century, and some critical aspects of this Psychology need to be re-visioned for today’s more radical shamanistic generation:
Jung was a “double agent” - he was sneaking shamanistic, alchemical wisdom into the emerging field of psychoanalysis, saving it from the abyss of materialism. But we can now speak more explicitly about things such as spirits, entities, the spiritual realms, and magic. Shadow work must take into consideration the role of demons, dark spirits, and magic. The role of psychedelics / entheogens must be duly considered in modern “individuation”. Individuation is no longer reserved for the “second half of life” - every human being is now facing an “individuation crisis”
We now live in a society full of sorcery and assaults of dark magic upon our psyche.
Jung’s Psychology was not intended for such an age of spiritual warfare (nor an age of Internet, TV, modern media, social media etc).
Jung’s psychology must equip us for inner work during these tumultuous times of widespread shamanic crisis.
Learn to find the ideal balance between Jung’s scientific precision, discernment and discipline... and the mystical, shamanic renaissance in which we now find ourselves.
