AVALANCHE
Embracing the Dark Side of the Soul by W. Brugh Joy, M.D.
“Thought-provoking and controversial.”
-Son Francisco Chronicle
Ranging from Jung to Zen to the Bible, with illustrations from his own and others’ transformation, spiritual teacher W. Brugh Joy teaches us how to gain access to the specific powers of our unconscious self—our light or dark sides-through dreams, rituals, and spiritual guides. He suggests how we can consciously tap these powers, and provides us with “scripts” for meditation and healing that will give new insights into spiritual and sexual nature—and into the profound psychic patterns reflected in such systems such as astrology and the Ching. Here is a rich and multifaceted guide, a bold surrender to an avalanche of the soul that can unlock our frozen spiritual mind-set and sweep us into the larger mystery of life.
Available in bookstores everywhere.

Look for this wonderful book by Jean Houston:
THE PASSION OF ISIS AND OSIRIS
A Gateway to Transcendent Love
“Jean Houston is a very high priestess, and The Passion of lsis and Osiris is her sacred tool. … In her hands, myths are magic. … This book is phenomenal.”
—Marianne Williamson
In The Passion of Isis and Osiris, Jean Houston, internationally renowned philosopher, psychologist, and explorer of world myth, takes us deep into the mysteries of Egypt, land of the ancient soul within us all. Houston brings this world to wonderful life, showing how the myth of Isis and Osiris gives modern readers a design for the marriage of body and soul, life and death, the tangible and the hidden. In detailed exercises and dramatic enactments that can be done in groups or alone, she demonstrates how we can identify the Isis and Osiris that are seeking reunion in each of us.

And don’t miss Jean Houston’s classic book:
THE HERO AND THE GODDESS The Odyssey as Mystery and Initiation
“Houston has broken through to a new understanding of the sense and uses of the disciplines of inward-turned contemplation. … She gets people to awaken themselves to unknown powers that transform their lives.”
—Joseph Campbell
The Hero and the Goddess explores the transformational power of one of the world’s greatest stories-The Odyssey. This classic tale of adventures and exploits is the supreme metaphor in the Western mind for spiritual initiation. Jean Houston interprets each episode from the epic-including Odysseus’s confrontation with the Cyclops, his temptation by the Sirens, his descent into the Underworld, and his ultimate reunion with the subtle and brilliant Penelope—and explores with us the universal themes of wounding and betrayal, suffering and loss, terrifying triumph and the search for the Divine Beloved. Through detailed exercises and dramatic enactments that can be done in groups or alone, The Hero and the Goddess guides us to our journey’s end-renewed, reborn, and rededicated to the possibilities our lives offer.
