COURSES

MEET THE PLANTS: A COURSE IN HERBAL WISDOM

We all have an inner forager, medicine maker, and alchemist within us. In this 5 part course, you will learn the skills needed to research, identify, and create your own herbal rituals and remedies.  

Each session will feature a blend of science and traditional folk wisdom gathered and woven together by clinical herbalist and storyteller, Ashley Litecky Elenbaas.

SUB-CREATING MIDDLE-EARTH: READING J.R.R. TOLKIEN'S THE SILMARILLION

In a follow up to the tremendously successful Lord of the Rings course, this class--hosted by Dr Becca S Tarnas--guides the reader through Tolkien’s sweeping saga of the First and Second Ages of Arda. The expansive vision and grand language can make The Silmarillion a more challenging read than The Lord of the Rings, so this course is designed to unpack the philosophical, spiritual, and literary meanings within Tolkien’s text.

WRITING YOUR SKY: NARRATIVE STRATEGIES USING QUALITATIVE TIME

In this writing workshop cum astrology course, Dr Jenn Zahrt will guide you through various astrological timing techniques to help reveal narrative threads that run through your life that you may have never put together before. Through journaling our own charts using the techniques presented, we will gain a personal gnosis that we can apply to future memoir projects or other creative writing

SEEING THROUGH THE WORLD: JEAN GEBSER & EVER-PRESENT ORIGIN

This course, hosted by Jeremy Johnson, has been designed to be a rich, multimedia learning environment emphasizing a phenomenological encounter with the structures of consciousness and the poetic expression in Jean Gebser's writing. 

PKD, VALIS, & PRACTICES OF ULTRA META-COGNITION

This seven part course, hosted by Dr Richard Doyle of Penn State, tunes into PKD’s fictional strategies at play in his novels – including Ubik, The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch, A Scanner Darkly, Valis, and The Divine Invasion - in order to observe and experience an alteration of consciousness that Dick would query in the over eight thousand page manuscript, The Exegesis.

(This course is pre-recorded and free to register)
