A workshop where imagination meets ancient wisdom, where the gods of mythology evoke timeless truths, and where philosophy’s great thinkers guide you on a journey of self-discovery. In this workshop, we’ll explore active imagination—a powerful Jungian practice for connecting with the unconscious mind—by immersing ourselves in the vibrant myths, rich history, and profound philosophies of Ancient Greece. Through guided visualisation, creative expression, automatism, abstract conceptualising and dialogue with archetypal figures, you’ll unlock your inner wisdom, harness the power of storytelling, and explore how ancient wisdom can transform us.

Welcome to a journey inspired by Jennifer Higgie’s profound exploration in “The Other Side: Women, Art, and the Spirit World.” This 7-week online course invites you to explore the intersection of art, mysticism and active imagination—an inquiry into how these realms intersect and enrich our understanding of self and creativity.

“Weaving in and out of their myriad lives, Higgie considers the solace of ritual, the gender exclusions of art history, the contemporary relevance of myth, the boom in alternative ways of understanding the world and the impact of spiritualism on feminism and contemporary art”. – The Other Side

Drawing from Higgie’s insights, we navigate our inner landscapes through dialogue and introspection, discovering how art becomes a powerful tool for reclaiming and defining our multifaceted identities. Through guided exercises in visualization and symbolic interpretation, we deepen our connection with the unconscious, reclaiming narratives and visions often marginalized or overlooked.
