Description

Mary Harrell unflinchingly greets a cast of imaginal figures who inhabit her life, and encourages all of us to welcome their wisdom into our own inner landscapes. These very real beings dwell in a realm between matter (nature) and mind (reason), appearing in dreams, intuitive callings, visions, feelings, and sometimes frightening events. Mary offers her own intimate experiences through which she explores and engages these figures, showing her readers how to host these beings as one would host invited guests. From the work of philosopher Henry Corbin, psychiatrist C.G. Jung, and psychologist James Hillman, we know that the name of the realm in which these figures dwell is the mundus imaginalis, or the imaginal world. As this is a work in which archetypes are grounded in experience, Imaginal Figures In Everyday Life: Stories from the World between Matter and Mind is both a path to individual transformation and, in the words of psychologist Robert Romanyshyn, “a therapy of culture.”

About the Author:Dr. Mary Harrell is a licensed psychologist and a Jungian-oriented psychotherapist. She is Associate Professor Emeritus at State University of New York at Oswego, Curriculum and Instruction Department School of Education. Before becoming a professor and a psychologist, she was a classroom teacher for 30 years with an M.Ed. from the University of Delaware. Through the lens of analytical psychology, Dr. Harrell explains the nature of imaginal figures, those very real beings who come in dreams, visionary encounters, myths and fairy tales. They are all much more than they first seem. Dr. Harrell's stories open a path for others to encounter their own imaginal figures. Each encounter in the imaginal landscape, offers readers a different view of soul's transformation and healing potential. As readers move from page to page, they learn the wonders of living life imaginatively. Dr. Harrell resides in South Carolina with her husband Stephen.
