Howling about Jung, psychedelics, animism & decolonizing depth psychology with Dylan Francisco, Co-Chair of the Jungian and Archetypal Studies program at Pacifica Graduate Institute.

We have a lively discussion around Jung's cautions (and contradictions) against the use of psychedelics, the limitations of Jungian and depth psychology when confronted with psychedelic experiences of other realms and non-human beings, and the constant need to keep re-visioning depth psychology.
