WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT IS YOUR LIFE ABOUT?
Touch on the memory of who we really are, who sent us here, and what is our work here … and why are we often so unusual, so different, so eccentric, so belonging often to a tribe of one?
Join Phoenix Arrien as she guides us through Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés’s archetypal imagination course in “Mother Night, the quintessential medial woman, the woman who can walk in tw
o worlds … ‘the one who knows’ and who can reveal solid ways of living and unleashing creative life in both worlds.”
The program Mother Night is presented online from Clarissa, a
Jungian psychoanalyst and author of Women Who Run With the Wolves, interspersed with sharing, exercises and reflections, over 6 weeks, as we tap the generative power of the goodness of the core self—that is, all creativity and understanding that lies out of sight in darkness—often called the unconscious.
Dates: 7pm-9pm AEST from 19 February, every Wednesday evening, to 26 March 2025

According to Dr. Estés, “The most endangered species on earth is the human soul. Many try to stand in one world only, the world of the collective culture, thereby experiencing a sense of standing outside the true self, allowing too much waste into one’s life—due in part to over-immersion in the daytime world only.
A sense of being ‘not in oneself entirely’ comes from not returning to the soul’s true home, often enough … a home that is not provisioned nor protected by the overculture. Thus, a critical susto (loss of soul nourishment) comes upon us.
We are weakly linked or severed completely from the one-of-a-kind wild and wise self that emerges from the realm of mystery, dreams, and shadow.
“…we see the way into and back toward home, that is, to return to el mundo doble, the double worldview, one that sees through the eyes of soul as well as through the eyes of the ego. 
This dual way of seeing, being, and acting is the most direct way to reclaim the gifts and well-being and healing apothecary set into each soul on earth at birth. The archetypal representations of Mother Night, as represented in stories, myths, and amplifications, can show us the way through.”

“There has been nothing better than every Wednesday evening setting my space with a candle my recliner and a snug blanket, along with my pastels / pencils/ and sketch book. The opportunity to come together with a group of beautiful wise women to have Phoenix hold space and open the stories up. To be heard validated was a given. To rock up with your own experience and to hear from each other allowed for vulnerability and laughter in-fact all emotions.
These groups offer a chance to explore a deeper knowing of patterns and protectors that have are impacting on my life, it provides a safe space to explore with support and practise ways to heal from these experiences.
I find these groups allow me to know lm not alone it is away of having connection with like minded people. It’s great work that is easy to put in place for yourself to practise and heal. Phoenix is amazing at holding space which allows what is needed to unfold. So grateful for the work.”
