Thank you, Marion Woodman. At a new place in relationship with my mother as an elder, in particular I appreciate what you say about being vs. doing, and being at a place of rebirth. The importance of the container is critically important to individuals, communities, and societies.
This talk is the bomb. Liminality, ritual, gender, archetypes, demagoguery, 1984, I don’t know where to start.
