“The transfiguration of matter occurs through wonder.”
— James Hillman (April 12, 1926 – October 27, 2011)
“Essential for working with what is unknown is an attitude of unknowing. This leaves room for the phenomenon itself to speak. It alone may keep us from delusions.”
— James Hillman, in The Dream and the Underworld.
“Sooner or later something seems to call us onto a particular path. You may remember this “something” as a signal calling in childhood when an urge out of nowhere, a fascination, a peculiar turn of events struck like an annunciation: This is what I must do, this is what I’ve got to have. This is who I am… If not this vivid and sure, the call may have been more like gentle pushings in the stream in which you drifted unknowingly to a particular spot on the bank. Looking back, you sense that fate had a hand in it… A calling may be postponed, avoided, intermittently missed. It may also possess you completely. Whatever; eventually it will out. It makes its claim… Extraordinary people display calling most evidently. Perhaps that’s why they fascinate. Perhaps, too, they are extraordinary because their calling comes through so clearly and they are so loyal to it… Extraordinary people bear the better witness because they show what ordinary mortals simply can’t. We seem to have less motivation and more distraction. Yet our lives are driven by the same universal engine. Extraordinary people are not a different category; the workings of this engine in them are simply more transparent…”
— James Hillman
As autumn approaches our psyche begins to connect with what keeps us warm internally so after running our successful series of wolf workshops earlier this year we now want to invite you to our new ceremonies integrating depth psychology and shamanic practice. The wolf was very much needed to connect with our intuitive nature but a few other animals, elements and energies are now wanting to come in and give their wisdom, healing and light to our souls. Using the work of James Hillman, David Carson, Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Marie-Louise von Franz, Carl Jung and Nicki Scully we will be journeying with the above. Dates to follow after the next full moon. Join our mailing list on our website www.nursethesoul.com so you don’t miss out! 🌕✨💜

Stop with these perfect Instagram posts, aren’t we all bored of everyone hiding behind them? Expose your vulnerability if you want love at a soul level. We all carry the archetypes of the old woman in rags and frail child within. Allow yourself to be seen in your totality so you can be recognised by the right people and your soul will feel fed.
Join our Wolf Circle this coming Monday 7-9pm where we will dive into the psyche and connect with our disguises and our divinity. Contact Jasmine on 07545913193 to book your place or DM us. (at Notting Hill)
