http://www.threeeagles.net
Practitioner and researcher of esoteric and exoteric, Shamanic techniques since 1972, I refer to my path as “reading the book of nature.” I'm a Native American of the Chickasaw Nation, as well as of French heritage. M.A. Literature & Writing Studies, California State University San Marcos; B.A. Comparative Literature & Research in Consciousness, Maharishi International University. I also studied Hatha and Raja yoga/union, and interior world religions or esotericism in Santa Barbara for 17 years. While reading the book of nature on vision quest, I received the Indian name Three Eagles. A lifelong writer of nature and devotional poetry, I've performed original readings in 12 cities.
Between 2002 and 2015, I presented academic papers on esoteric Literature and Natural Magic at 19 conferences. Magic and esotericism have been studied in the field of Literature for two decades, and are well-established integral elements of the Humanities.
Continuing my research and writing on Jacques Lefèvre d’ Étaples’ 'De Magia naturali,' 'On Natural Magic,' I apply the Literary and depth psychological critical theories of Archetype-Myth and Phenomenology-Hermeneutics. Depth psychology includes Jungian and archetypal psychology.
Retired adjunct faculty. In the Engaged Humanities & the Creative Life program at Pacifica Graduate Institute, I have taught HMC200, a course centered around Jung's 'Red Book' entitled, "Active Imagination, Dreams, and Psychic Creativity."

Krippner, & H. L. Friedman (Eds), Holistic treatment in mental health: A handbook of practitioner’s perspectives. Jefferson, NC: McFarland Publishing & Company, Inc.
In this shamanic practice, it is important to note that the patients also stand in as their own psychologist- practitioners, where psychotherapy and life are interwoven in the same web ‒ the patient-practitioners’ Medicine Wheel that is in continual transformation or rebirth. Thus, this chapter fully empowers patients to co-create their own best-practices manual out of the physical, mental, and spiritual materials available to them in life ‒ nature as experienced through all of their faculties in real time. Whether the shamans construct their Medicine Wheels out of physical stones in a permanent outdoor circle on the ground, or out of an imaginal indoor circle demarcated by the corners of a rug at Earth’s cardinal directions, they are equally effective due to the archetypal nature of Medicine Wheels. All of nature is the shaman’s sphere. Our entire life is a vision quest. The Medicine Wheels come for us.
Across the span of human history, women have participated in world-building and life-sustaining cultural creativity, making enormous contributions to religion and spirituality. In the contemporary period, women have achieved greater equality, with more educational opportunities, female role models in public life, and opportunities for religious expression than ever before. Contemporaneously with this increased visibility, women are actively and energetically engaging with religion for themselves and for their communities.
Drawing on the expertise of 120 scholars, this reference chronicles the religious experiences of women across time and cultures. The book includes sections on major religions as well as on spirituality, African religions, prehistoric religions, and other broad topics. Each section begins with an introduction, followed by reference entries on specialized subjects along with excerpts from primary source documents. The entries provide numerous suggestions for further reading, and the book closes with a detailed bibliography.
Features
•Offers nearly 300 reference articles by international scholars of religion, women, and history
•Provides an overview of the religious experiences of women across time, faiths, and cultures
•Devotes sections to particular religious traditions to provide information about the role of women and the feminine divine within those faiths
•Presents reference information about the experiences of women within religions
•Directs the user to additional resources via suggestions for further reading and an end-of-work bibliography

Editor’s Introduction -- excerpt
Cheryl Fracasso, Stanley Krippner, Harris Friedman
The term “holistic” has attained considerable currency in mental health circles, and has become a code word for a set of shared perspectives and values that have guided humanistic psychology and related approaches to mental health care in its struggle to resist dehumanizing forces that reduce individuals to just being seen as a mechanical compilation of parts and their interactions. Holism takes a broad view, whether in psychology or other disciplines that employ that term (such as biology, philosophy, and sociology), as it rests on the notion that all of a system’s properties cannot be reduced (i.e., determined by) its components alone, as any system, including the human individual, must be taken as a whole to understand it. In this way, holism competes with what is often called “atomism,” the view that the composite parts and relationship between them can adequately explain and even determine the behavior of a system. In contrast, holism views the whole system, however that might be demarcated, as essential, containing emergent properties that are greater than its mere parts by virtue of being a complete whole unto itself. Thus holism and atomism, as well as other forms of reductionism, offer competing worldviews with significant implications.
In the mental health arena, humanistic psychologists, and those from other disciplines who share humanistic values and assumptions, can be seen as those most likely to focus on individuals as a whole, including transpersonal psychologists who sees individuals as embedded in the most inclusive of wholes, the entire cosmos.

Chaco Canyon, New Mexico's medieval indigenous astronomical observatory, embodies star worshippers from neolithic Anatolia and the US Southwest, medieval Middle East, and Renaissance Europe. Timekeeping through astronomical observations, along with ritual and talismanic astral magic, are shamanic practices that unite humankind throughout time. Shamanism is a universal human endeavor that informs humanistic and other depth psychologies, and is itself embraced as our original indigenous psychology. Using PowerPoint images of shamanic star worship from these widespread locations, I offer a vision of humankind's earthly and cosmic unity. Whether embodied as stone observatories and ritual centers, on stone as petroglyphs or pictographs, in ink as treatise or talisman, as mechanical astrological clocks, or enacted through the human body itself---indigenous shamanism grounds humankind in our greater nature.

A Three-Day International Conference on the current political climate, from the perspective of depth psychology, and activism.
About this Event
Analysis and Activism/Presidency Conference
The Reality of Fragmentation and the Yearning for Healing:
Jungian Perspectives on Democracy, Power, and Illusion in Contemporary Politics
Friday, October 16 - Sunday, October 18, 2020
LIVESTREAM
WEBINAR
Are geopolitics worse in our time than in previous times? It certainly feels to many that this is the case and that things are getting more fragmented, partisan, elitist and founded on illusion than before. The relationship between power and its inequities and the hope of democracy is fraught with difficulties and anxieties. This conference brings together two important strands of the evolving relationship between Jungian ideas and political and social issues. First, the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco has presented conferences on the Presidency every four years since 2000 at the time of national elections. The 2020 conference will be held just a few weeks before the election. The second project is the groundbreaking series of Analysis and Activism conferences organized with the support of the International Association for Analytical Psychology. This conference will be the fourth of its kind, following previous events in London, Rome, and Prague.
