Premonitions and Apparitions: Valuable Protection and Grounded Intelligence from “The Other World”
Mother Night presents a new series of teachings from Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés, the esteemed senior Jungian psychoanalyst and bestselling author of Women Who Run With the Wolves. This six-session online learning event invites us to tap the generative power of all goodness of the core self, all creativity and understanding that lies out of sight, in darkness called the unconscious.

In the fourth session of the series, Premonitions and Apparitions: Valuable Protection and Grounded Intelligence from “The Other World,” we learn that all of us receive visitations from “the other world” in the form of premonitions, dreams, synchronistic events, and more. Dr. Estés helps us first of all see these messages, “which are sometimes subtle and sometimes carry the cyclonic viento of Espirito Santo, the wind of the Holy Ghost, which can knock one off one’s feet in just the right way, or temporarily bewilder or blow one’s mind, and in some cases knock one back into one’s right mind again.”
To help delineate premonitions and apparitions, Dr. Estés will point to science “and indigenous archetypal psychology—the first archetypal psychology regarding all matters of earth, the unconscious, and conscious minds”—as well as stories of legendary seers:
- Tiresias
- The Sybyl
- Xilonen, the wife of Smoking Mirror
“The Littlest Lazarus,” a special blessing prayer, follows a Q & A session with the audience.
