Jungian Dream Analysis and Psychotherapy
Jungian Analysis is one of the most unique adventures a person can embark upon.
While Carl Jung developed and proved the usefulness of his methods of analysis in the psychiatric ward, today many psychologically healthy individuals are discovering the depths of their own psyche through engaging with the messages from their own unconscious brought to light by their dreams.
Jung believed the drive of the unconscious part of our nature is toward wholeness, and that dreams were the most succinct and nuanced messages from that part of us. Therefore recording and interpreting our dreams could be a vital link in maintaining a healthy psychological balance throughout life. Indeed, as many people have found, it can be a key to a more creative and fulfilling life, led by the promptings of the innermost Self.
To work with a Jungian analyst is to take this inquiry to the highest level, since we rarely have the ability to do justice to what our own dreams may tell us.

The symbolism of bees, honey and the hive intertwine, but at the core is the imagery of the circumambulation of the centre. For bees, this is a dynamic in the service of the queen bee and the preservation of the hive. In depth psychological terms, circumambulation is linked with mandala symbolism or the archetype of inner order, an archetype that Jung said was perhaps the most important.This work explores the alchemical union of opposites through symbolism related to the life and nature of the bee.
Some particular opposites associated with bees, honey and the hive include those of love and war, sweetness and bitterness, the individual and multiplicity, light and dark, order and chaos, industry and laziness, earth and heaven-the sky, sun and moon, spirit and matter, fertility and sterility, regeneration and death.The author brings together her practical experience as a beekeeper and insights gained in her work in depth psychology, particularly through an appreciation of
