The House of the Gathering: Reclaiming the Shadow, Repairing the World
Kevin Sachs invites you to a free online event to encourage and support people committed to doing shadow work.
The purpose of this event is to join together, to get to know one another, to share our methods, experiences, or questions around shadow work, and to support one another in our shadow-work practices.
Shadow work involves discovering disowned parts of our psyches and integrating them into a more whole self. When these shadow parts are exiled to our unconscious, we tend to project their unacceptable qualities onto other people and groups. I believe that, in this divided and turbulent time, paying attention to our shadows and to our projections is vitally important.
What makes this project unique is the intention to do shadow work, at least in part, as a form of inner social activism. If we can discover our shadow projections and learn to withdraw them, we can contribute towards what, in Kabbalah, is called “Tikkun Olam,” the repair of the world.
