Dreams and the Hidden Realm of Soul with James Hillman and Carl Jung

What are dreams? Where do they come from? Do they hold deep hidden meaning or are they neurological nonsense? Whatever your opinon, we've collectively struggled to make sense of dreams since time immemorial.

In this transmission, we'll investigate the phenomenon of dreams. We'll primarily look through the lens of mythopoetic psychologists like Carl Jung, and especially, James Hillman. Hillman was a post-jungian depth psychologist, author and founder of what he called archetypal psychology-- A philosophy that seeks to re-ensoul the psyche through a combination of mythology and psychology.
