La Pachamama’s Soul: Understanding Ecospirituality Through Archetypal Intersubjectivity (Online)

Ancestral peoples looking at the sky wondered, "What is out there?" They buried their loved ones using rituals that reveal their beliefs of life after physical death. The archetypal feelings of longing to return to the womb of La Pachamama – Mother Earth, as she appears in the mythological traditions of indigenous Andean peoples – have connected us through the ages. To the ancestral peoples, the Earth was sacred – it had a soul and was considered a common house. Life and death were part of the same reality, a cycle in which humans took part but were not less or more important than other living beings. Join us for this introduction to the ecospirituality of our ancestors, and how the newly-developed epistemology of archetypal intersubjectivity is concerned with and alerts us to the urgent need for a new ethic centered on the care of our common house, the Earth.
