My most blundering part of my personality is probably the sensate side, but I still am not sure if it's an I or an E.

The idea of a singular 'shadow side' is one of the things I keep thinking that Jung must have been misinterpreted about. Working with Archetypes, each of them has their own unique shadow properties, and some of those shadow properties can actually be harnessed to provide positive effects.

I think the MB and its variants can help us understand a bit about our own 'hidden' agendas and motivators and why some things resonate with us more than others. But, IMHO, when we really start exploring our principal archetypes and what areas of 'life' call forth a greater response from one or more of them, we can really dig deeper into our own personal inner truths and paths.

I have a presentation I am working on entitled Leather Woman and the Wild Woman Archetype. This is one in a series I have been developing. I will be presenting this peice at Spring Iniquity in April. There is still much to do to prepare. I would like to post some of the content and get some feedback.

Dr. Clarissa Estes is a Jungian psychoanalyst who used archetypes and metaphors from old folk tales and stories to awaken women all over the world to their inner power.

The journey of the wild woman is about coming into power. Her journey through the wilderness has been a long process of self-discovery and now she runs with her inner wolf and lets her spirit soar. She is playful, creative, intuitive and often feared because of her wisdom and power.

Leather women have their own unique experiences and history. On our journey's we have laughed, cried, danced, growled, scratched, howled and loved. We seek each other out knowing, like the wolf, that the pack is stronger than the one. By sharing our collective wisdom we strengthen each other, our pack and clan.

In this workshop we will explore and share who the wild/leather woman is and how to release and claim her. We will tend to our soulskins and sing over our bones.

This workshop is for all leather women regardless of where you are on your journey. Come prepared to share your story and leave feeling empowered by the clan you belong.

Live In The Present

From the Buddhist perspective everything in this phenomenal world is impermanent - nothing lasts. The Buddha said, "What has been gathered will be dispersed, what has been accumulated will be exhausted, what has been built up will collapse and what is born will one day die." So, one way of preparing for death is by fully appreciating every moment. Our lives consist of moments, much like the frames of a movie film. Each frame or moment is born and then dies and then there is the next moment. Too many of us miss these moments because we are too caught up into thinking about yesterday or about tomorrow. Instead of experiencing the sacredness of the present, many are living in the past or the future.

The Buddha also said, "This existence of ours is as transient as the autumn clouds. To watch the birth and death of beings is like looking at the movements of a dance. A lifetime is like a flash of lightning in the sky, rushing by, like a torrent down a steep mountain." For this reason alone it is important to live in the present moment and to live our lives in a compassionate way. Living in the present moment takes courage. It means committing ourselves fully to responding moment-to-moment with compassion regardless of the situation.

Greetings

I would be very interested and may have some things to share. I do a couple of workshops involving archetypes, human needs, embracing our shadow aspects, etc.
