O for a life of sensations rather than thoughts.

#JohnKeats, quoted in #TheSoulsCode by #JamesHillman

The fantasy of growth
#psychology #jungian #JamesHillman
continuing to read up on #JamesHillman’s #archetypal psychology—his rich image of the ‘polytheistic’ psyche really resonates with me, as does his poetic-pragmatic take on the uses of ‘gods.’ and i admire his devaluing of *interpretation* of dream/desire. hillman’s writing doesn’t get into the full-on jungian visionary trip, but his fluid metaphors light a path from jung/corbin to, say, #minsky’s intuitively brilliant ‘society of mind’ and the lewis/amini/lannon General Theory of #Love.

If you like to read any of the following authors I’d be happy to follow you…

#JamesHillman
#RobertBly
#LizGreene
#RobertJohnson (the psychologist, but the bluesman was cool too)
#JosephCampbell
#ThomasMoore
#CarlJung

Mostly men there, sorry. I just learned about Ginette Paris but any recommendations of other woman authors exploring similar themes would be welcome and appreciated.
