Description: The Journey of Soul Initiation by Bill Plotkin With the Earth and so many of its people, species, and ecosystems in crisis, a renowned author outlines a path toward individual awakening and cultural regeneration FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Soul initiation is an essential spiritual adventure that most of the world has forgotten — or not yet discovered. Here, visionary ecopsychologist Bill Plotkin maps this journey, one that has not been previously illuminated in the contemporary Western world and yet is vital for the future of our species and our planet. Based on the experiences of thousands of people, this book provides phase-by-phase guidance for the descent to soul — the dissolution of current identity; the encounter with the mythopoetic mysteries of soul; and the metamorphosis of the ego into a cocreator of life-enhancing culture. Plotkin illustrates each phase of this riveting and sometimes hazardous odyssey with fascinating stories from many people, including those he has guided. Throughout he weaves an in-depth exploration of Carl Jungs Red Book — and an innovative framework for understanding it. Author Biography Bill Plotkin, PhD, is a wilderness guide, eco-depth psychologist, and agent of cultural regeneration. As founder of southwest Colorados Animas Valley Institute, he has, since 1980, guided thousands of women and men on the journey of soul initiation. His previous books are Soulcraft, Nature and the Human Soul, and Wild Mind.
