Description

Open this book and enter the world of eros and, curiously, emptiness — two vital qualities of the Wise Old Woman spirit that can help us survive ... possibly even thrive. Through the human imagination and dreams, the Wise Old Woman spirit offers a kind of collaboration and partnership involving a very real intimacy and immediacy while preserving our conscious gains.

Although the Wise Old Woman spirit has appeared with many names and in multiple forms, this discovery is specifically born of Jung's work on the archetype of the Wise Old Man. The Wise Old Woman spirit has emerged as a wisdom figure of her own in the ground-breaking research Dr. Faron has conducted.

Not a goddess, nor worshipped, the feminine wisdom figure is nevertheless divine, born out of each individual psyche — man or woman — and functions as a psychological and individual reality.

Featuring Emma Jung as the quintessential example of the Wise Old Woman spirit and enriched by dreams of the Wise Old Woman from around the world, this book provides scholarly, experiential and life-affirming inspiration!

Praise for the Wise Old Woman Spirit - Help as a Partnership

Dear Susan,

I received your lovely book on Thanksgiving and what a wonderful thanksgiving present it is! Because the day is mostly free, I was able to sit down and immediately begin to read for several hours. I am so impressed by how fully you have presented the WOW, giving so many instances of her presence in our lives, and with believable examples. She is touchable and knowable, perhaps the most important in your introduction to so many who have not had, or perhaps not realized, the direct experience of her yet. Even for those of us that have been so blessed, you fill out her reality so that I, and others, may begin to notice how ever present she is in our daily existence. What an impressive job you have done. The sheer breadth of your research is apparent. I am looking forward to being able to introduce the WOW to other women I know, and most particularly women in my practice whom I know will benefit greatly from reading your book. I am honored to be included in such a fine book. By including me, you have refocused my attention on her in my own life. As you know, as time wears on, it is easy to let awareness of even such a vibrant and personal gift from the Self fade. I am even now beginning to look around, to see where I can find evidence of her in my daily life once again. That alone has been worth the wait. I also appreciated your thoughtful, intelligent commentary on something so personal and precious to me as my dream. That, too, has the actuality of refocusing my attention on the gifts she brings me and I appreciate the wisdom in your commentary.

Salud!

With great affection and warmth, your comrade in the hopefully growing universe of recognition of the great blessings WOW brings to our lives, and by extension to the world who desperately needs her.

Northern California, Woman, 76
