By studying alchemical psychology we come to understand ourselves and other humans in surprising ways.

Ways that frequently diverge sharply from the habitual understandings we have unconsciously absorbed from the cultures in which we were raised. These new awarenesses can engender unexpected new vitality and wonder. This course focuses on the essay Silver and The White Earth in James Hillman’s final and most profound book, Alchemical Psychology.

Course Description

James Hillman was a past master of alchemical psychology. This field uses metaphors derived from ancient alchemy to elucidate deep structures in the creative imagination. We tend to forget that creative processes are not random. Imagination embodies along lines that become apparent when we ponder the frequently incomprehensible images of alchemy.

The book, Alchemical Psychology, covers a lifetime of studies and is quite difficult to read by someone who is not deeply steeped in alchemy, the work of C.G. Jung or James Hillman. Robert Bosnak has studied these thinkers for well over 40 years.

James Hillman was the primary training analyst of Robert Bosnak, who developed the field of embodied imagination: the way in which images can be felt in the body and shape our embodied condition.

This course goes through Alchemical Psychology and engages with the essay Silver and the White Earth page by page – and frequently line by line. It is a guide to the very heart of the art of reflection and to the essence of the Queen of creative imagination: the Moon, Luna.
