“The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.”

—C.G. Jung

A Letter from the Vice President of Lifelong Learning Dear Friends, I have had the privilege of developing programs and conferences for Pacifica and of engaging with many of you online and on campus. I continue to be moved by the extraordinary passion for learning that defines this community. It is a passion that reaches far beyond the acquisition of knowledge or vocational training.

I hear it in the depth of the questions you bring into our online classrooms. I see it in the genuine joy that emerges when you gather—whether virtually or in person—with others who share a commitment to exploring psyche, soul, and imagination. Pacifica Extension is, at its heart, a living community of learners who are drawn to something more than traditional models of education can offer. There is a longing here—for meaning, for depth, for transformation.

In The Red Book, Carl Jung asks: “Have you counted the murderers among the scholars?” He is pointing to the difference between explanation and understanding—to the ways in which education, when severed from the soul, can lose its vitality and its humanity. At Pacifica Extension, we are committed to a path that honors the living, breathing dimension of learning as a transformative encounter.

It is in this spirit that I am delighted to introduce this quarter’s offerings—each designed to bring you into dialogue with scholar-practitioners whose work reflects a profound integration of knowledge and soul.

As spring unfolds around us, I find myself reflecting on the quiet insistence of new life—the flowers pressing up through rain-soaked earth, the sound of newborn calves in neighboring fields. These seasonal rhythms remind us that learning, too, is a living process—one that continually invites us to grow, to explore, and to discover anew.

Thank you for the depth of presence, curiosity, and commitment you bring to this community. It is what makes this work not only meaningful, but truly alive.

With gratitude, Loralee

WRITING DOWN THE SOUL Cohort 1

March 21 - December 13, 2026

With Dr. Maureen Murdock & Dr. Jennifer Leigh Selig Like myth, memoir presupposes that there is a certain unity to human experience, that we all share similar hopes, dreams, and desires. When we tell the story of how and where we grew up, who our parents were, how the significant people in our lives influenced us, and what challenges and obstacles we faced, we are locating ourselves within an ancient human tradition of storytelling and meaning-making. Memoirs help us find meaning in our lives by showing us how our lives fit into a larger mythic pattern. Although not every memoir reflects a mythic theme, most memoir writers unconsciously reveal mythic themes in their desire to find meaning in their lives. Memoirs address the domains of myth: Who am I? Who are my people? What is my journey? What is my purpose? Where is home? The essence of a great memoir is the voice of the writer and how she brings the reader into a scene with sensory details. In an atmosphere of friendship, support, and safety, we will read excerpts from contemporary memoirists like Joan Didion, Dani Shapiro, Natasha Trethewey, and James McBride that reflect mythic themes, and respond to short writing prompts.

LONGEVITY, WELLNESS, AND THE SOUL’S JOURNEY May 5 - June 23, 2026 Across cultures and throughout history, human beings have sought to understand what it means to live a long, meaningful, and soul-filled life. Today, as longevity science expands and societal narratives around aging rapidly evolve, the deeper psychological, spiritual, and mythic dimensions of growing older often remain neglected. Longevity, Wellness, and the Soul’s Journey invites learners into a rich exploration of aging as an initiatory passage; a sacred unfolding shaped by imagination, embodiment, ancestral memory, and the enduring call of purpose. Blending depth psychology with integrative wellness, creativity, and cross-cultural wisdom traditions, this course offers a transformative inquiry into what it means to cultivate vitality, presence, and inner freedom across the full arc of a human life.

What does it mean to live well across the full arc of a human life? How do psyche, body, spirit, and culture shape our experience of aging, wellness, and meaning?

In a world increasingly focused on productivity and longevity technologies, depth psychology offers a counterpoint: an invitation to view aging as a mythic, soulful unfolding.

This interdisciplinary certificate explores longevity not as mere lifespan extension, but as soul endurance; the development of resilience, purpose, creativity, individuation, and relational capacity across life's turning points. Drawing from depth psychology, somatics, integrative wellness, mythology, ecology, and spiritual traditions, the course examines aging as a sacred journey involving transformation of identity, body, imagination, and community.

Through live zoom sessions, reflective practice, storytelling, and embodied exercises, learners will explore themes such as midlife transitions, archetypal approaches to aging, somatic vitality, intergenerational healing, the role of creativity, cultural narratives of longevity, and the spiritual tasks of the later life stages.

WRITING DOWN THE SOUL Cohort 2 June 6, 2026 March 14, 2027 Exclusively with Dr. Dr. Jennifer Leigh Selig

This 10-month certificate program in memoir writing takes a unique approach, teaching not only the standard elements of the genre, but applying an archetypal and mythological perspective. Such a perspective seeks to combine the unique aspects of our story with the universal dimensions. In writing with an eye to the unique and the universal, we help our readers reflect upon their own lives as well. Like myth and archetypes, memoir presupposes that there is a certain unity to human experience, that we all share similar hopes, dreams, and desires. When we tell the story of how and where we grew up, who our parents were, how the significant people in our lives influenced us, and what challenges and obstacles we faced, we are locating ourselves within an ancient human tradition of storytelling and meaning-making.

LILLITH DARK FEMININE ARCHETYPE v

Laurence Hillman, PhD Vanja Bokun Popović, PhD Black Moon Lilith is one of the most misunderstood points in astrology. Often reduced to sexuality, rebellion, or shadow projection, it is in fact a precise astronomical point—the lunar apogee—that marks a threshold within the natal chart.

In this course, we will work specifically with the True (Osculating) Black Moon Lilith and explore it as a portal of refusal, exile, and sovereignty.

What happens when a person encounters a life arena where belonging requires self-betrayal? Where does autonomy cost something? Where do patterns of withdrawal, rupture, attraction, or destabilization repeat?

Black Moon Lilith marks these thresholds. Rather than treating her as pathology or empowerment narrative, we will examine her as a liminal function—one that emerges when structures lose legitimacy and vigilance becomes necessary.

Through careful chart analysis, mythic context, somatic awareness, and clinical insight, participants will learn to interpret True Black Moon Lilith in natal charts with

June 20- August 15, 2026 precision and depth. We will explore house placement as portal, sign as instinct-language, aspects as activation pattern, and lived biography as field of encounter.

This Advanced Training Certificate course consists of 8 prerecorded lectures that students can watch at their convenience.

The lectures prepare participants for weekly live interactive sessions with two experienced teachers in archetypal astrology and depth psychology. In this graduate-level course, students will encounter complexity, paradox, and differing perspectives while developing a structured and responsible method for working with Black Moon Lilith in professional and personal contexts.

APPLIED MYTHOLOGY June 25- August 13, 2026

“We are all part of the old stories; whether we know the stories or not, the old stories know about us.” —Leslie Marmon Silko The Advanced Training Certificate in Applied Mythology brings together expert myth practitioners with participants eager to understand the multiple ways which myth structures not only storytelling, but psyche itself. Recorded learning sessions will usher you into the world of mythology, where deep sources of wisdom can illuminate contemporary turns of life and fate. Live, weekly interactive sessions with master teachers will help you learn to recognize the mythologic patterns that are influencing not only world events, but your own individuation process.

Drawing on the sacred stories of many times and places, this Advanced Training Certificate invites you to apply what you learn to a variety of life areas, including selfdevelopment, love and family life, work and career,

spirituality, consciousness, and personal creativity. You will also learn and practice the crafts of storytelling— including the science behind why it’s so effective—and ceremony creation for workshops and professional presentations.

Explore the inner, storied dynamics of current events: politics and power, science and technology, the media, the environment, religious and spiritual traditions from around the world, all from the standpoint of ready comprehension (no academic expertise required), everyday relevance, and practical application.

Working with Dreams and Nightmares: Jungian, Cultural, and Active Imagination Perspectives April 7 - 28, 2026 Working with Dreams and Nightmares encourages the participant to become more closer connected with their own individual dream life. The focus of the teaching/learning experience is to create a deeper intimacy with one’s own dreaming state that includes a Jungian therapeutic principle of ego and archetypal connections. These connections include the ability to bring into the dreamwork cultural aspects. Most often we dream of those we know—family, friends, former lovers. Then the archetypal appears in the dream.

How do we move with these dream images? It does become a dance of ego and archetype and the movement of integration in service of being in the life, living fully.

Active Imagination gives us the way to explore our dreams. Dreaming is a creative act that invites any number of ways of seeing: Seeing differently. This is what Active Imagination offers the dreamer. Ways to deepen into the unconscious as well as the wake state, to see and act into new ways of being. It is through the dreaming of what we call nightmares that we experience not only fear and anxiety but also deeply emotional ways to remedy this suffering. Nightmares are the bridges to implement change through the connection between the unconscious and ego consciousness. These night dreams are wonderful guides to discovering an understanding to ourselves that we would never otherwise know: Sacred knowledge and the Self.

Relational AI and the Helping Professions: The Third in the Room May 9- June 12, 2026 This microcredential addresses a largely unexamined challenge of our time: how the growing presence of artificial intelligence is reshaping human relationship, authority, imagination, and meaning within the helping professions. Rather than approaching AI as a technical tool or abstract ethical issue, the program engages AI as a relational and psychological presence—one already entering clinical, educational, and care-based settings as a third factor influencing perception, attachment, projection, and agency.

The program is highly relevant to contemporary professional contexts, as practitioners increasingly encounter AI through client use, institutional adoption, and shifting cultural expectations of intelligence and care. Yet most professional training has not addressed how these developments subtly alter relational dynamics, questions of sovereignty, and the practitioner’s role. This microcredential responds to that gap by equipping participants with a depth-oriented framework for recognizing and working consciously with these emerging dynamics in practice.

Distinctively grounded in depth psychology and archetypal perspectives, this course treats AI as a symbolic and imaginal phenomenon arising within a larger historical and psychological moment. Through structured reflective inquiry, case-based exploration, and embodied attentional practices, participants examine how their own orientations to intelligence, authority, and relationship shape engagement with AI. The emphasis is on discernment, integration, and maintaining a grounded human center —neither mastering nor rejecting AI, but engaging it consciously and ethically within relational work.

Chinese Medicine and Depth Psychology: An Integrative Healing microcredential program June 3 - July 8, 2026 Two diverse yet complementary fields converge in this online 6week Microcredential program. Chinese medicine and depth psychology each possess an expansive view of the body and psyche and are grounded in rich traditions. Though Chinese medicine is over 2,000 years old, its relevance and need today is more apparent than ever. When integrated with depth psychology, we have a potent mix of healing modalities where each field magnifies the strengths of the other. In areas of psychological health where Chinese medicine is weak and falls short, depth psychology soulfully fills in the gaps. Where depth psychology is deficient and could use a practical, hands-on approach, Chinese medicine offers simple and effective tools.

This course will provide both a theoretical and practical approach to integrating these two fields. The curriculum emphasizes the fluid nature of the mind-body continuum, touching upon psychic structures, internal organs, physical and psychic energy, and conditions such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, and possession. Students will engage with psychoanalysis, analytic and archetypal psychology, acupuncture, herbs, and dietetics. This program will be suitable for those who are interested in an expansive view of mind-body medicine, integrative healing, and for clinicians, researchers, and students keen on delving into two vitalizing traditions.

“ I learned a great deal from this program that is applicable to my writing and life experience.”

Unstorying Yourself: Self-Actualization Shadow Work Through a Jungian Nondual Lens One of the most basic and fundamental jobs of the mind is to construct stories. We create so many stories about who we are, who others are, and why things are happening in our world, but how often do we question our own stories and where they come from?

Unstorying™ offers a glimpse at what lies beneath the surface of our awareness, bringing more clarity, resilience, compassion, creativity, and a sense of wholeness to your life through the power of our stories. At its core, Unstorying™ is a Jungian-based shadow integration process that, combined with nondual awareness and inner journeying, is designed to help you see and understand the stories you carry through life; the ones you welcome and the ones you push away, the ones that mask old pain, and the ones that veil the yet unseen gold within you, and move you towards individuation and transcendence, and an embrace of the Self.

In this presentation, Dr. Nicole K. Miller shares her journey from undergraduate dreams of a career in television and film to the development of Unstorying™ and the building of her business, Minding the Story, and how her graduate work at Pacifica Graduate Institute was an integral part of that path. Dr. Miller will discuss the development of the Unstorying™ Process, along with core concepts, such as Jungian understandings of shadow and psyche, nonduality, narrative thinking, and surrender, and introduce the Unstorying™ Process itself. She will then share some of the foundational exercises and practices of her work, allowing participants to contemplate some of their own shadow stories that may be keeping them stuck, in unhealthy relationships, or in repetitive cycles that no longer serve them. We will also discuss wider applications of this work on a larger community, and societal, level.

Listening to the Soul of Your Research Sometimes our research draws us in before we fully understand why we are pursuing a particular topic or how our degree will ultimately shape our lives beyond academia. These sessions begin from the premise that research is not merely a technical or intellectual task, but a living process with a soul of its own—one that calls us into a journey that eventually pushes us back into the world in new and transformed ways. The sessions outline how we can recognize how research both shapes and is shaped by our inner life.

The sessions explore how we can learn to listen to the soul of the research and discern the guidance it offers, both during the research process, in the often-uncertain transitional period after completing a degree, and in the longer term. Rather than simply approaching research as a problem to be solved or a product to be completed, we can also consider how the soul of our research communicates through shifts in energy, unexpected obstacles, or moments of synchronicity that suggest a deeper direction seeking recognition.

Participants will consider how unconscious material, symbolic images, and lived experiences influence the questions we ask, the methods we choose, and the directions our work ultimately takes after earning the degree. Special focus will be placed on how research topics often reflect personal themes, long-standing fascinations, and formative life experiences that seek expression and integration into our vocational calling.

Key practices explored in the sessions include working with dreams, engaging imaginal material, attending to synchronicities along the scholarly path, and honoring the places and contexts in which research unfolds. Through guided reflective exercises, participants will be invited to revisit moments of curiosity and pivotal life events that may illuminate the deeper motivations behind their academic pursuits and their life after their degree, including their personal development, professional direction, and meaningful contribution to the wider world.

direct. Before graduate school, he spent fifteen years on the road in a performance ensemble, crafting and staging work that challenged theological orthodoxies and invited audiences into deeper questioning. The stage became a laboratory for symbolic thinking and cultural critique — an apprenticeship in holding the tension and trusting that transformation often begins with challenging narratives.

In a culture organized around efficiency, specialization, and measurable productivity, depth psychology can be difficult to situate. It resists easy categorization. It does not conform neatly to prevailing clinical, behavioral, or neurological frameworks. Its language is symbolic rather than technical, its outcomes qualitative rather than easily quantified. As a result, it is often misunderstood.

In hindsight, those years were not a detour but a formation.

Pacifica Graduate Institute’s Clinical Psychology Program continues its “Lighthouse Conversations.” These faculty-led talks are designed to address the question: How do we become the people called for by our time?

This year we are adding talks by our graduates and current students.

The series emerges from our commitment to respond to the multiple threats affecting us personally, within our communities, nationally-internationally, and as a species. We recognize that our circumstances are simultaneously external and internal. Global and cultural warfare, climate change, and social injustice threaten our world and communities. Simultaneously, these external burdens match internal crises: increasing rates of depression, anxiety, and PTSD, alongside an epidemic of loneliness as screens replace human connection.

RIPENING: Why Women Need Fairytales Now

With best-selling author Sharon Blackie, PhD

In a world in which old certainties seem to be crumbling, many women feel insecure or lost. In Ripening, Sharon Blackie insists that fairy tales are precisely the stories we need for such times.

In this complimentary Author Spotlight conversation, Sharon Blackie joins Loralee M. Scott, MFA, Vice President of Institutional Advancement & Lifelong Learning at Pacifica Graduate Institute, for a depth-psychological dialogue on her forthcoming book.

Long before they became bywords for people-pleasing princesses, these old stories – passed down to us through generations by our peasant ancestors – told us everything that women need to learn about the world. They might be set in difficult and dangerous times, but they insist that their heroines face the unfaceable and dig deep for previously unimagined inner resources. They teach us to be savvy, inspire us to grow in confidence, show us how to be bold and claim the future we dream of.

April 27th, 2026

More than anything, fairy tales are soul-food. They show us how to take hold of our own personal narratives and transform them into stories that might begin with trauma, but end with empowerment. They offer us images of startling resonance and beauty, while showing us how to recognize and make use of the possibilities that rise to the surface when broken systems are cracked open.
