Howling about myth, storytelling, dreams, creativity and looking at your life through a mythic lens with Catherine SvehlaSupport the podcast on Patreon: http://patreon.com/howlinthewildernessDepth Counseling with Brian James: http://brianjames.caArchetypal Men’s Coaching Program: http://brianjames.ca/fourinitiationsFollow me on Instagram: http://instagram.com/brianjames.soulworkHITW YouTube channel: http://youtube.com/@howlinthewildernessSend a donation via PayPal: http://paypal.me/brianjamessoul“I suspected that myth had a meaning which I was sure to miss if I lived outside it in the haze of my own speculations. I was driven to ask myself in all seriousness: “What is the myth you are living?”I found no answer to this question, and had to admit that I was not living with a myth, or even in a myth, but rather in an uncertain cloud of theoretical possibilities which I was beginning to regard with increasing distrust. I did not know that I was living a myth, and even if I had known it, I would not have known what sort of myth was ordering my life without my knowledge. So, in the most natural way, I took it upon myself to get to know “my” myth, and I regarded this as the task of tasks…”  — C.G. JungDr. Catherine Svehla is a storytelling scholar and consultant in the field of mythology/depth psychology, artist, creativity coach, outdoorswoman, lover of the Mysteries and mentor in the mythic life.She partners with artists and other creative individuals to realize the visions they hold for their projects and their life, and hosts the Myth Matters podcast.Catherine’s website: https://mythicmojo.comMyth Matters podcast: https://mythicmojo.com/myth-matters-podcast-blog Hosted on Acast.

The average man seeks certainty in the eyes of the onlooker and calls that self-confidence. The warrior seeks impeccability in his own eyes and calls that humbleness.”― Carlos CastanedaThe world is increasingly at war—literally and metaphorically. To cope, many seek personal methods of gaining peace—through meditation, yoga, time in nature, exercise, even therapy. But these methods are often utilized to escape difficult emotions like fear and anger. Even developing emotional intelligence can be motivated by a desire to think about emotions rather than feel them. Because the world is engulfed by fear and anger, conscientious people are doing everything possible to eliminate them, which is not helping because it just enacts another kind of war. We are caught between the guru and the soldier and paradoxically enough, both must often kill their emotions to complete their mission, which can leave behind a trail of massacred lives in one form or another.We are suffering from the cultural and psychological absence of the Warrior. Indigenous cultures have always recognized the importance of the Warrior for the human community because the Warrior is experientially trained to honor fear and anger. Without the Warrior we lose what fear and anger can teach us. When we oppose these emotions, we put ourselves in conflict with the psyche itself and no one at war with themselves can live peacefully with others or the earth.DYLAN FRANCISCO, PhD, is co-chair and a core faculty member of the Jungian and Archetypal Studies MA/PhD program at Pacifica Graduate Institute in Santa Barbara, California. Dylan grounds his teaching in the depth psychology of C. G. Jung, decolonialism, and Mestizo/Mexican/Indigenous traditions that provide a primordial, holistic, and sacred worldview within which to understand the psyche, to embody its wholeness individually, and to live it relationally through honoring Spirit, the ancestors, and the land.
