Описание: In An Orphan's Odyssey Rose-Emily Rothenberg explores the images and symbols that appeared in the stories, myths, and dreams surrounding her travels to Africa, reconnecting her to ancestors, both human and animal, who helped her access her cultural roots. In giving voice to these, she renews her connection to the Self and to the Divine. 232 Pages. Full color interior Rose-Emily Rothenberg, MA, is in private practice in Pacific Palisades, California, and teaches at the C. G. Jung Institute of Los Angeles. She has been a Jungian analyst for over thirty-five years. Her special interests, on which she has lectured nationally and internationally, are the orphan archetype and the relationship between disease and the psyche. She is the author of The Jewel in the Wound: How the Body Expresses the Needs of the Psyche and Offers a Path to Transformation (Chiron). "This is the story of a personal journey with archetypal dimensions. By going deeply inward and also traveling physically over a large continent, conversing with dream figures and imaginal personalities as well as interacting with material beings of every variety, Rose-Emily Rothenberg has created an extraordinarily colorful and meaningful life. She gives us a case study in individuation that is deeply convincing because it has been lived with extraordinary devotion and consciousness." -Murray Stein, author of Minding the Self "Rothenberg carefully describes her ongoing voyage of initiation and learning. She has been utterly faithful to her foundational myth of orphanhood and bodily scars, traveling to Africa to connect with tribes, ancestors, and animals. A life led with integrity and knowledge, her description of her path is indeed worthy of being read by all those who search." -J. Marvin Spiegelman, author of The Divine Waba (Within, Among, Between, Around): A Jungian Exploration of Spiritual Paths "Beautifully illustrated and richly imagined, An Orphan's Odyssey weaves together the archetypal, cultural, and personal innerscapes and nature safaris of its author. As the West's most powerful symbol of the unconscious, Africa emerges as the mother of her spiritual development. This soul work will appeal to Jungians, psychotherapists, spiritual seekers, and readers of Africa travel writing. It is a joy to read." -Blake Burleson, Baylor University, author of Jung in Africa

Описание:
In the cold shadow of tragedy, hope is like a ray of sunshine ...
Celia Bennett does her best to be a good mother. She is devoted to caring for her eight-year-old son Caleb and takes him to soccer practice on weekends. But in the middle of a drill, tragedy strikes ... and Caleb collapses on the field.
Celia rushes the unconscious boy to the hospital, hoping the doctors there can help. But their shocking diagnosis completely blindsides her, bringing her face-to-face with every parent's worst nightmare.
Her child is dying, and Celia feels powerless to help him.
Desperate to save her son's life, Celia pursues a cure through alternative medicine. But no matter what she tries, her efforts end in frustration and disappointment. Celia is devastated. Despite the support of her family, she feels utterly alone, and no one can help her. But in the darkest depths of her despair, hope walks through the door. Her father returns after a 30-year absence.
In the midst of her pain, can she let go of the despair in her soul, and embrace hope? Will it make a difference?
Cross-cultural workers are our heroes. Willing to go anywhere and endure most anything, they sacrifice the security and comforts of home to serve on the frontlines of God's Kingdom.
Yet the journey is usually hard, often lonely, and plagued with potholes and detours.
Fortunately, others have already traversed these difficult pathways, leaving us their journals to encourage, inspire, and instruct.

Through daily scripture readings, original photos and a compelling storyline,
you'll be inspired, challenged, and encouraged to press on in your own unique journey.
Trafficking with Demons explores how magic was perceived, practiced, and prohibited in western Europe during the first millennium CE. Through the overlapping frameworks of religion, ritual, and gender, Martha Rampton connects early Christian reckonings with pagan magic to later doctrines and dogmas. Challenging established views on the role of women in ritual magic during this period, Rampton provides a new narrative of the ways in which magic was embedded within the foundational assumptions of western European society, informing how people understood the cosmos, divinity, and their own Christian faith.
As Rampton shows, throughout the first Christian millennium, magic was thought to play a natural role within the functioning of the universe and existed within a rational cosmos hierarchically arranged according to a "great chain of being." Trafficking with the "demons of the lower air" was the essense of magic. Interactions with those demons occurred both in highly formalistic, ritual settings and on a routine and casual basis. Rampton tracks the competition between pagan magic and Christian belief from the first century CE, when it was fiercest, through the early Middle Ages, as atavistic forms of magic mutated and found sanctuary in the daily habits of the converted peoples and new paganisms entered Europe with their own forms of magic. By the year 1000, she concludes, many forms of magic had been tamed and were, by the reckoning of the elite, essentially ineffective, as were the women who practiced it and the rituals that attended it.

Описание: This book explores an area of contemporary religion, spirituality and popular culture which has not so far been investigated in depth, the phenomenon of astrology in the modern west. Locating modern astrology historically and sociologically in its religious, New Age and millenarian contexts, Nicholas Campion considers astrology's relation to modernity and draws on extensive fieldwork and interviews with leading modern astrologers to present an invaluable contribution to our understanding of the origins and nature of New Age ideology. This book challenges the notion that astrology is either 'marginal' or a feature of postmodernism. Concluding that astrology is more popular than the usual figures suggest, Campion argues that modern astrology is largely shaped by New Age thought, influenced by the European Millenarian tradition, that it can be seen as an heir to classical Gnosticism and is part of the vernacular religion of the modern west.

Описание:
The French anthropologist Claude L?vi-Strauss scoured the Amazon forest for the myths of its primitive peoples. He found that a certain logic governed the construction of these myths—his mythologique; he regarded this logic as innate in the human mind and thus universal. Despite this claim of universality, L?vi-Strauss deliberately sidestepped the myths of the biblical religions as well as the myths of modern societies. This proved to be a missed opportunity since these myths lend themselves very well to his mode of analysis.
The apocalyptic narrative is the ongoing myth of Western society. It makes its first appearance in the Bible in the story of the Exodus and in the Passion of Christ. Its characteristic feature is its opening scenario of one or another form of unendurable oppression— whether the Pharaoh in Egypt for the Jews or the bondage of the body for Christians. “Lord and servant” is the binary pair that prevails and through a process of inversion leads to the Kingdom of Heaven (celestial or terrestrial). The work of Augustine and Luther follow suit as surprisingly enough, do the Lutheran Hegel and the Hegelian Marx. In every case, the initial oppression is inverted and a sublime destination ensues.
A demonic version of the same apocalyptic narrative appears in the 1930s. The Nazis point to their own tale of “oppression” of the German people and in the same fashion proclaim the Dritte Tausendj?hrige Reich. It is a terrible irony but perhaps L?vi-Strauss’s mythologique may help us to see through the “glass” a little less darkly.

Описание: As a man thinks, so is he. This is a fact we do well to heed. "For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace" (Rom. 8:6-9) In Mind Frames, the author shares six scriptural exercises to strengthen the mind's ability to focus Godward and then presents a dozen Christlike attitudes -mind frames- to guard our thoughts in challenging circumstances. These mind frames are used by the spirit to bring our thoughts into alignment with the ways of God. "And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus" (Phil. 4:7) "And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all they soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment" (Mk. 12:30).
