“It is a dark page in human history when people make others bear their shadow for them. Men lay their shadow upon women, whites upon blacks, Catholics upon Protestants, capitalists upon communists, Muslims upon Hindus. Neighborhoods will make one family the scapegoat and these people will bear the shadow for the entire group. Indeed, every group unconsciously designates one of its members as the black sheep and makes him or her carry the darkness for the community. This has been so from the beginning of culture.”

-Robert Johnson-from Owning Your own Shadow

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Unlock the hidden wisdom in your dreams and discover the transformative “gold” waiting in your shadow. This experiential course invites you to explore the deeper messages of your inner world, turning unconscious patterns into insight, healing, and personal growth. No experience necessary.

Participants will leave with practical tools for shadowwork, including ways to:

Explore the language of dreams & alchemy and uncover the personal meaning behind recurring symbols, images, and themes.

Recognize the Shadow by identifying hidden emotions, patterns, beliefs, and aspects of self that may be seeking awareness.

Connect dreams to waking life and discover how the unconscious can illuminate relationships, choices, challenges, and opportunities.

Transform Shadow material into “gold” by working with difficult or hidden aspects of the self as sources of wisdom, creativity, and growth.

Develop a personal dream practice that supports self-reflection, greater self-awareness, and ongoing inner transformation.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

It is common in group dreamwork to offer guidance to the dreamer using the phrase, “If it were my dream.” But what if dreams belonged both to the one who dreamed them and also spoke to issues that affect the wider community? While Western psychological approaches to dreamwork tend to approach dreamwork as a way to resolve individual complexes and heal personal wounds, traditional dream practices across cultures often embrace the collective nature of dreams to connect us with ancestors and offer information and warnings to help communities survive and thrive.

In this participatory workshop, we’ll start with the premise that dreams know no boundaries; they come to people across every border of geography, language, culture, socioeconomic condition, race, and religion.

Participants will leave with practical tools for ancestral dreamwork, including dream incubation practices, journaling prompts, and ways to listen more closely to the messages that arrive while we sleep.
