Love that Is Willing to Roar
I was raised to be nice, to avoid anger and not act in anger. To behave with kindness and love. I still believe this. But I’ve seen and suffered the damage one can do to oneself and others by being too passive and pleasing. I don’t want to be like that any more. I don’t […]
Is Nothing Sacred Any More? Where is Your Temple?

Never, in the history of our country, has the chasm between two potential presidents been wider. Never have so many citizens of the United States or the world been so shaken by this ugly divisiveness.
Hillary Clinton and the Feminine Archetype: Part I
Those of us who were alive in the 50’s and 60’s—including Hillary Clinton—experienced the chaotic beginnings of this new vision. America struggled with Civil Rights demonstrations, protests against the Viet Nam War, and, with the introduction of the birth control pill, an unprecedented emancipation of women.
The Presidential Election From A Jungian Perspective
It’s apparent to everyone that the feminine principle has been activated in the collective consciousness of America. The question is, are we going to fight the potential for the revitalization of America, or will we dare to open the tomb?
What Does It Mean To Be Unconscious?
What does it mean to be unconscious? It doesn’t mean we’re dull, socially clueless, or lacking in intelligence, creativity or passion.
Affordable. Health. Care. Part II
Last week I wrote about a friend who has issues with the Affordable Care Act and vented to me in a rather adversarial way. In that post I shared my self-doubt and conflicts about whether I could handle such a political hot potato in this blog with intelligence, objectivity and balance.
