Mandala as a Path to Healing Our Split with the Sacred Earth
January 19, 2019 @ 10:00 am - 3:00 pm PST
$110.00
Mandala symbols appear very frequently in moments of psychic disorientation as compensatory ordering factors.
– C.G. Jung (CW 3, par. 582)
Jung identified the mandala as an archetypal image of wholeness. In this workshop we explore the manifold forms of mandalas, West and East, and how they can help us heal our split with the natural world. Mandalas make the invisible visible and are portals into deep psychic experiences. We discuss how mandalas provide a bridge between the macrocosm and the microcosm, and how the mandalas provide a lens through which we can view our sacred world. We will learn how we can make mandala practices a part of our everyday lives.
