The purpose of this website is to share some thoughts about the exploration of the psyche.  It is meant to be the application of a certain way of looking at images - a way which needs no specific analytic training and which is applicable to many areas of life.  Of course the pursuit of this method in an analytic setting is one of the main attributes of a Jungian depth analysis (see About Jungian Analysis).

This website is not meant to represent anyone’s thoughts other than mine, although my ideas are hardly original; they are dependent upon many teachers past and present.  It is merely a taste, a bit of encouragement to use your own analytic skills and imagination in translating the symbolic language of the psyche.  Further study can be pursued by looking at the pages on recommended reading, the links, and the courses offered.

Images are a kind of language and like languages they are derived from a foundational and collective human experience.  Thus each one has an essential meaning - a place in the network of signification that only it occupies.  However, the context of our time and local tribal affiliation demands a nuanced application of this essence.  This website is tiny sample of that conjunction.
