The Inner Sky, The Blessed Earth: The Living Cosmos and Your Place in It
March 3, 2008 — WhitehawkGreetings: Rick has supplied the following intro to the upcoming Inner Sky teleseminar. The date on which this pilot event will happen remains TBA; apparently it’s still ripening in his mind. Regardless, I thought I’d share progress with you as it comes to me. I look forward to being able to announce the *when* soon, as well as attending this event myself! The following is from Rick:
This workshop weaves archetypes of Western alchemical and astrological traditions into specific exercises designed to develop the organ of the soul — the living imagination. Through working deeply with the image-making and receiving faculty (which includes feeling, thought, and sensation) we experience the tangible, living, and visceral reality of the divinities that resonate with our lives. We learn to hear their callings and to “propitiate” their higher forces through cultivating our attention. This allows us to integrate ego into its harmonious and authentic path of manifestation and to relate freely and powerfully with the energies of the world: money, health, language, relationship, vocation, faith and destiny. The “inner sky” refers to the archetypes that need to be skillfully negotiated and received in order to understand our life in its greater context and experience the flow of our lives as a gateway toward illumination.
