On December 20th, 2010 I began the twenty-four hour trip from New York State to Beirut, Lebanon. On the evening of the rare lunar eclipse that coincided with the Spring Equinox, suspended over the Atlantic ocean, I opened the pages of James Hollis',The Archetypal Imagination. A few summers ago I went through a James Hollis book each week and by September I felt a little weary, heavy. The Archetypal Imagination left me in a very different place. I was inspired and re-committed to the life of the symbolic. |
