2010 - The Year of the Great C.G. Jung Project

From synchronicity to the vast collective unconscious, I have found myself working with symbols, dreams and the language of the spirit. Actually, it's as if the symbolic sort of grabbed me and has taken my mind captive. One day I was looking at the world one way, and the next I was seeing myths, legends and archetypes all around me. I decided I was going to try to read as many Carl Jung books as I can in 2010. The goal is to get through all the “relevant” ones and blog about how his ideas are relevant (or not ) to spiritual and psychological evolution. It’s time I read the works of the man who has had such an impact on me (even if it was unknown). Or as someone told me once, “you both came to the same place independently in different ways.” Am I the 100th monkey or has Jung's work simply become part of the collective unconscious? This year we will see where Jung and I come together and where we fall apart and whether all this study and reflection can lead to individuation, self-actualization or self-realization. Please join me on this journey to self-discovery.

And So It Begins

Finally. I've spent the past two weeks doing and redoing my website for Symbols of Soul. Very frustrating. Some error in FrontPage that I was not able to decipher. This week I just caved and created a whole new template. Tonight it is finished! All but the proofing that is. And so I can begin my blog happily without the specter of the website hanging over my head.

So why a blog? I'm a "journaler" by nature and I enjoy reading artist and "thinker" blogs and I thought it might be interesting (if for no one but myself) if I chronicled this new endeavour as I journey more into the language of soul.
