To be “unhistorical” is the Promethean sin, and in this sense the modern man is sinful. A higher level of consciousness is like a burden of guilt.” — C.G.

After studying psychology and comparative religion at the University of Sydney, he moved to the United States for doctoral studies in clinical psychology.

Become a member of the HITW Patreon community: http://patreon.com/howlinthewilderness Howling about Greek gods Hermes and Hestia and the remedy for what James Hillman called “Hermetic Intoxication” with depth psychologist, writer and teacher Elizabeth Eowyn Nelson Elizabeth Éowyn Nelson, faculty at Pacifica Graduate Institute since 2003, has been a professional writer and editor for four decades. Dr. Nelson’s books include Psyche’s Knife (Chiron, 2012), The Art of Inquiry (Spring, 2005 & 2017), coauthored with Joseph Coppin, and The Art of Jungian Couple Therapy, coauthored with Anthony Delmedico (Routledge, 2025).  “Any archetypal understanding of contemporary life must honor two gods, Hestia and Hermes, who are a very unlikely pair—though are paired in the western classical tradition.  In our love affair with mobile digital life, we have been in a Hermetic frenzy, individually and culturally, for decades. I do not see it ending because we are fully invested in instantaneous communication—sending messages to each other at the speed of light. This is Hermes, the Greek god of communication and commerce (in the broad) sense who also is a trickster and thief. To counterbalance Hermetic frenzy we need Hestia, the goddess of the hearth. In fact, Hestia is the hearth, the center of the home, the one who dwells. Hestia also brings us back home to the body, to soma, to our embodied home on the earth. Since Hestia dwells, she also signifies patience, slowness, settling down, the part of us who longs to stop after too much activity. You might say that Hestia is necessary medicine, the divine remedy for too much Hermes.” — EON, “Hestia & Hermes: The Tension of Opposites in Mobile Digital Life References: http://www.elizabethnelson-phd.com Karl Kerényi, Hermes Guide of Souls Barbara Kirksey essay on Hestia in Facing the Gods (edited by James Hillman) Sherry Turkle, Alone Together: Why we expect more from technology and less from each other ___________________________ 🔥 SUPPORT & SOUL WORK Join the pack on Patreon: http://patreon.com/howlinthewilderness Depth Counseling with Brian James: http://brianjames.ca Archetypal Men’s Coaching Program: http://brianjames.ca/fourinitiations Personal Myth Program: http://brianjames.ca/personalmyth Follow me on Instagram: http://instagram.com/brianjames.soulwork HITW YouTube channel: http://youtube.com/@howlinthewilderness Send a donation via PayPal: http://paypal.me/brianjamessoul Tags: carl jung, james hillman, archetype, hestia, hermes, greece, psychology, podcast

Watch the full episode for free by becoming a member of the HITW Patreon community: http://patreon.com/howlinthewilderness Howling with writer and cultural commentator Angie Speaks about Carl Jung, Rudolf Steiner, spirituality, Sophia, A.I. and identity politics. From the heights of celebrity to the corridors of tech power, the rationalist ideals of the modern age are being abandoned. In their place, we’re witnessing a revival of religion, mysticism, and the occult. Why are figures like Kat Von D and Russell Brand converting to Catholicism? Why are Elon Musk and Peter Thiel funding esoteric research and invoking the arcane? Why are U.S. senators speaking in hushed tones about nonhuman intelligences under the cold glare of mainstream news cameras? This isn’t irony—it’s a crisis. In a world supposedly ruled by science and reason, belief is back with a vengeance. Drawing on the insights of Carl Jung and the darker undercurrents of the digital age, this book decodes a culture turning inward—toward archetype, myth, and shadow. As the boundary between the rational and the irrational dissolves, Late-Stage Babylon offers a map for navigating the strange terrain of our post-secular future. Tabitha (Angie) Baba-Ahmed, known as Angie Speaks, is a writer and video essayist. Her work has been featured in publications such as NewsWeek and Spiked Magazine and presently, she hosts  the thought-provoking podcast Mystic and the Machine. Delving deeper into cultural matters, her video essays, available on her YouTube channel Depth Diaries, offer an analytical and depth-psychology-driven exploration of contemporary issues.

Watch the full episode for free by becoming a member of the HITW Patreon community: http://patreon.com/howlinthewilderness Howling with depth psychologist and writer Elizabeth Nelson about myths of warrior women allies, bawdy crones, the healing power of humour and embodied sensuality. “As homo faber, human beings are makers of many things—including the stories, poetry, songs, and images that comprise the great goddess tradition. We have a material record of Her presence for millennia, despite toxic patriarchy. We are also homo faber in our embodied actions that leave no material trace yet influence critical moments in someone’s story. Two fascinating goddesses—Inanna and Demeter—owe their being to the actions of a supposedly small or minor character, which only goes to show: there are no small parts, only small actors. This presentation explores two goddess makers: the warrior ally Ninshuber, who performed a pivotal role in Inanna’s release from the Sumerian underworld, and the crone/midwife/trickster Baubo, whose lascivious dance punctured Demeter’s paralyzing despair.” — Elizabeth Nelson, Warrior Allies & Bawdy Crones References: https://www.elizabethnelson-phd.com Psyche's Knife: Archetypal Explorations of Love and Power The Porn Addicted Magician (essay) https://thevale.substack.com/p/the-porn-addicted-magician James Hillman: In Defense of Pornography https://youtu.be/1EZjekNE2qw James Hillman, Pink Madness https://youtu.be/2hy0vZPpoDs ___________________________ 🔥 SUPPORT & SOUL WORK Join the pack on Patreon: http://patreon.com/howlinthewilderness Depth Counseling with Brian James: http://brianjames.ca Archetypal Men’s Coaching Program: http://brianjames.ca/fourinitiations Personal Myth Program: http://brianjames.ca/personalmyth Follow me on Instagram: http://instagram.com/brianjames.soulwork HITW YouTube channel: http://youtube.com/@howlinthewilderness Send a donation via PayPal: http://paypal.me/brianjamessoul Tags: myth, jung, feminism, archetypes, depth psychology, podcast
