Dying to be Alive: Death as Spiritual Healer

Description

Born of the author's personal experience, as well as her studies in Jungian psychology, this book takes the fundamental ideas in "Healing the Wounded God", which Vocatura co-wrote with Jeff Raff, and applies to them to life's most important challenge; developing soul-consciousness by becoming reconciled with the inevitability of one's death. Through folk stories, dreams, and active imaginations, we come to know Death as a personified entity who wants to cooperate with us in our personal spiritual evolution. We get to know Death as our guide from "Here" to "Elsewhere" and beyond to the Divinity existing in the infinite space outside our created world. The author discusses how Death can be a partner on the journey to individuation and in working with the ally, a psychoidal manifestation of the Divinity. Through this teaching, we can become aware of our immortal essence.
