A Woman’s Journey to Herself

You are invited to 12 Archetypal Voyages in discovering the depth of your own soul.

Beginning the Inner Voyage Through the Archetypal Innocent

Each voyage we take in these coming weeks allows us to meditatively breathe in Judith Duerk’s profound soul question, “How Might Your Life Have Been Different If…” This question opens our hearts to the potentiality forfeited in our unlived lives because of traumatic experiences of the past. My goal by sharing these tools is to provide cartography to reclaim any exiled, or lost parts of Self, that desire reclamation. Interwoven in this series of voyages, Carol Pearson’s work on archetypes is also introduced.

The Inner Voyage is a Metaphor to discover and honor what is deeply true in you. Metaphor carries with it a way of perceiving the world. The art I have chosen by other artists will be named, and the art I create is featured in Stage 2, that answers different question.  

Imagery provides unconscious connection giving voice to our multifaceted emotional states, various developmental stages, and unknown parts of ourselves, allowing us to make sense of our own inner and outer contradictions in the life journey.

Introduction to “How Might Your Life Have Been Different If…”

In honor of Judith Ann Duerk
July 22, 1938 - March 18, 2021
Author of Circle of Stones and I Sit Listening to the Wind

Judith Duerk’s work has been a vital inspiration for my heroine’s spirit voyage. Today, I introduce a new blog series and a marvelous resource for women embarking on their Heroine’s Voyage. Each series I create, are designed to reflect aspects of my narrative, combined with the therapeutic derivatives and inspirations that I have accumulated since becoming a licensed therapist. 

The years of internal work create the unique elixir which has become the generative “transforming compound” resulting in my therapeutic salve. My soul always longed for connection through feminine energy spoken of in Judith Duerk’s works; Circle of Stones (A Woman’s Journey to Herself) and I Sit Listening to the Wind (A Woman’s Encounter With Herself).
