SUMMARY:Hunting the Green Lion: Subtle Body Heart Mysteries via Alchemy\, M
 yth and Dream
DESCRIPTION:Hunting the Green Lion: \nSubtle Body Heart Mysteries via Alche
 my\, Myth and Dream\nPresented by Monika Wikman\, PhD\nlink to audio file\
 nSunday\, 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM\, November 11th\, 2018\nTracking the alchemica
 l mystery of the Green Lion through myths\, ancient texts\, poetry\, and d
 reams\, we seek that Presence in the psyche which also seeks to awaken wit
 hin us\, leading to the growth of the subtle body heart\, potentially brin
 ging fresh vitality for life and individuation.\nFull of paradox and humor
 \, from the sulphuric to the sublime\, including shadow elements beyond se
 ntimentality and ego ideals\, the mysteries of the alchemical Green Lion s
 tart in the "rag and bone shop of the heart\," where our awareness grows o
 f the subtle ways we learn to guard the heart. In this state\, we unknowin
 gly may have lost courage for life\, or lead our lives from what Marie Lou
 ise von Franz calls the "substitute gods\," namely those unconscious value
 s and archaic defenses against psyche and life which create heart loss for
  life.\nThe alchemical mystery depicted in the hunt for the Green Lion bri
 ngs us into contact with this vitalizing force where we may also discover 
 the grace of an ongoing capacity to see these shadow attitudes and simulta
 neously open the heart.\nDiscovered here in the subtle hermetic light betw
 een the opposites is a potential growing center between the conscious and 
 the unconscious that helps light and guide our way in life.\nCourse object
 ives:\nDescribe the alchemical energy known as the Green Lion.\nUse myths\
 , ancient texts\, poetry and dreams to understand the role of the Green Li
 on in the psyche's individuation journey.\nDiscuss how contact with the Gr
 een Lion can lead us away from unconscious defenses and towards the openin
 g of our hearts.\nMonika Wikman\, PhD\, is a Jungian analyst\, astrologer\
 , and author of Pregnant Darkness: Alchemy and the Rebirth of Consciousnes
 s. She is a graduate of the Jung-von Franz Center for Depth Psychology in
