about

"Imaginal knowing is the only way that the unconscious can move into consciousness [... it happens through pictures, events, and well-told stories. It happens through poetry, where well-chosen words create an image that, in turn, creates a new awareness [...]"


In celebration of National Poetry month, let's do something a little different.

Here is a kaleidoscope of poems and voices, of topics and perspectives, a short journey beyond conventional wisdom, to deeper knowing and recognition, to appreciation of the gift of living in this time.

There is loss and pain, there is grief and helplessness mixed in. Let's not pretend otherwise, and let it also be fuel for creative fires. May synchronicity, or a moment of grace or attention, gift you with a poem that lifts you up today and helps you see that you are not alone.

Thank you to the Myth Matters patrons and supporters who contributed their voices and poems to this episode. They give life to our virtual story circle.

A complete transcript of this episode--and links to the featured poets and poems-- are available at www.mythicmojo.com
