Publisher's Summary
Where is the memory of who we really are, who sent us here, and what our work is here? And why so often are we feeling unusual, so different, so eccentric, so belonging to a tribe of one? Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, published in 34 languages and one of the most far-reaching artist-psychoanalyists of our time, teaches that in archetypal imagination, "Mother Night is the quintessential medial woman, the woman who can walk in two worlds... 'the one who knows' and who can reveal solid ways of living and unleashing creative life in both worlds."

Story
Dark, earthy, and immensely powerful, the Black Goddess has been a key force in world history, manifesting in images as diverse as the Indian goddess Kali and the Black Madonnas of medieval Europe. She embodies the energy of chaos and creativity, creation and destruction, death and rebirth. Images of Her, however, have been conspicuously missing in the Western world for centuries—until now, when awareness of the Goddess is re-arising in many spheres, from the women's movement to traditional religion, from the new discoveries of quantum physics to the dreams of ordinary men and women.

The secrets she will reveal are both more shocking and more tragic than anything listeners have encountered before.

In Trauma and the Soul, Donald Kalsched continues the exploration he began in his first book, The Inner World of Trauma (1996)—this time going further into the mystical or spiritual moments that often occur around the intimacies of psychoanalytic work. Through extended clinical vignettes, including therapeutic dialogue and dreams, he shows how depth psychotherapy with trauma’s survivors can open both analytic partners to "another world" of non-ordinary reality in which daimonic powers reside, both light and dark.

Story
"In the middle of the road of my life I awoke in a dark wood, where the true way was wholly lost." When you find yourself suddenly without bearings, as Dante Alighieri voiced so well centuries ago, where will you look for guidance? Throughout the ages, teaches David Whyte, the language of poetry has held a special power to hazard ourselves boldly at the "fierce edges" of our lives. On Midlife and the Great Unknown, you will engage with poetic imagination as it was meant to be experienced.

Sounds True
The wisdom this author awakens in people with her well spun prose is bottomless. You will find your darkest parts lit aflame, and the light she guides you to cast upon your own shadows will be a warm and lasting one. I listened in bits while at work, and thus recommend listeners be in a quiet place by chapter's end; there is a prayer or poem each time, and you'll want to be open and attentive, and able to relax into the sounds. Amen...and a little woman...you'll see!

A Divine Gift
Clarissa’s ability to weave you into a story is an art well worth the purchase of any of her works. This edition of work classically included a myriad of stories to keep me enchanted while covering a multitude of important topics such as dream work. I learned a lot from this that I am able to integrate into my daily life. It has shifted my narrative and influenced my world view greatly.

Truly a gift.
So I’ve only just finished the first segment and I’ve already been profoundly impacted by Clarissa’s heartfelt wisdom. Listening to this feels like an intimate and deeply personal experience. I have been absorbing every word, and often find tears welling up in my eyes. I’m not sure exactly why. So much compassion, so much knowledge to offer from a lifetime of learning and self actualization. I’ve done may courses on “spirituality” though rare do I feel hard one empathy/ sympathy like I do here. Clarissa Pinkola Estes has something real to offer.
