Ticket #1

Birthing a New Order out of contemporary Chaos: An invitation to evolve

Over time, the existing order of society becomes redundant, and chaos prevails. This activates the collective unconsciousness to constellate a new symbol to establish a new order and a new ethic. We are in one such powerful and troubling transition now. Our collective is embedded in materialistic misogyny. A feminine compensation of a warrior Kali archetype may be expedient but circular in establishing an Artemis order that is not relational. A new symbol is called for beyond the binary split of masculine and feminine. The presenters will lay out this dilemma and its analytical context. The participants will be invited to imagine a new symbol beyond this circular, binary regression. Join us in co-creation of a new symbol using group Imaginatio.

Learning Objectives
This course is intended to help you:

  1. Deconstruct Limiting Psychological Narratives
  2. Explore Mechanisms of Collective Trauma
  3. Discover Pathways Beyond Traditional Psychological Boundaries
  4. Outline a New Ethic out of the ruins of the Shadow of the present chaos.
  5. Develop Integrative Healing symbols to deal with present chaos.

  • 1:45 PM – 2:45 PM, CST – Explore the structure and dynamics of the Aditi and Kali archetypes and illustrate how this will be a binary, dysfunctional return to the opposite form of chaos. Explore the dissonance when presented with images that do not fit neatly into the existing binary.
