Spirituality and Transformation
•
27m
As we encounter the archetypal world within us, a partnership is formed whereby we grow as do the gods and goddesses within us. Jean Houston, Ph.D., suggests that the wanderings of Odysseus represent the deepening of the warrior male ego into the feminine mysteries.
Jean Houston, Ph.D., is founder and director of The Mystery School, a program of mythology and culture. She is past-president of the Association for Humanistic Psychology and also director of the Human Capacities Training Program. She is author of numerous books including Search for the Beloved, Godseed, Lifeforce, Mindgames, Listening to the Body (coauthored with Robert Masters), The Hero and the Goddess and The Possible Human.
