STORYTELLING & SOUP
Welcome all who love stories--parents in your childbearing year, birth story students, and mentors worldwide. The best place to form our story circle is online, although I'd prefer to ladle soup into your bowl and sit around a fire. Let's make the best of it. Make soup, pour a glass of wine if you like, and light a candle.
After I tell the Great Story, you'll consider how the hints and insights it offered you. We'll discover the hidden meaning in the archetypes, symbols, and patterns of alchemy and initiation.
We could spend longer, but count on an hour-and-a-half to two hours.
St. Mawr
DH Lawrence is a masterful storyteller-author. St. Mawr, a wild bay stallion, is an archetypal image. Upon meeting St. Mawr, a power stirs in Lou Witt, a young woman, activating the Centering archetype and leading her on a journey to self-knowing. The symbols and map of alchemical psychological transformation come alive in the story of St. Mawr. Cook up some soup and come find new meaning in a moment in your life, learn about new archetypes, and see the map of psychological alchemy in your storytellers.

"Speaking of the history of stories
and fairy-stories, we may say
that the Pot of Soup, the Cauldron of Story,
has always been boiling,
and to it we have added new bits..
If we speak of the cauldron,
we must speak of the Cooks..."
--Tolkein
