Relationships suffer from imbalances in ourselves, in our families of origin and in our communities and nature, and imbalanced r elationship perpetuate imbalance in all these areas. Healing is restor ing proper relationship.What is the Sacred Marriage?The alchemists cal led the ultimate alchemical stage, the reward of the challenging alche mical process the conjunctio, which is Latin for marriage.  The oppor tunity in relationship is to achieve this Sacred Marriage, the union o f the ‘opposites’ out of which a new reality arises. The ‘goal†™ of the alchemical process is the Conjunctio, the sacred marriage, bu t this is not a static end-point but a sign-post along the neverending path of growth and evolution. There’s a term that’s been going ar ound, Twin Flames, which refers to two people that have a unique compa tibility to achieve a Sacred Marriage. Yet the most important relation ship is within ourselves. We will explore aromas that teach us about h ow to experience conjunctio within us, between our ego and soul and to create the sacred safe space, the sanctuary in our lives and relation ships so the conjunctio can appear in our deep relationship.Ancestral HealingIt is often said that we marry our mother or father. Family his tory echoes across the generations. We may engage in destructive relat ionship patterns without knowing why. We may be completely unaware tha t our relationship patterns can be echoes of what our parents and ance stors went through. Through our work, we learn how to unearth the tran sgenerational hidden or buried patterns and traumas so that we don’t unconsciously repeat and echo the past in our present relationships. We will work with aromas to contact our ancestors and gain more perspe ctive on historical echoes, so we can transform them instead of repeat ing them.\nImportant Archetypes in this WorkThere are several importan t archetypes and archetypal dynamics that we have to know to be able t o step out of unconscious relationship patterns. These include the pos itive and negative archetypes of the Father, the archetypes of the Mot her, including the Death Mother and the Dark Mother. We need to have a n understanding of how our primal relationships, with our mother and f ather, shape our unconscious expectations of relationship. We also nee d to understand the Anima and Animus. There are also important archety pal dynamics are psychic incest, specialness and other unconscious pro gramming that influences our ability to be in relationship.We need to know about our Shadow, about how we constantly project our Shadow onto others, including our partners. We need to know about parents project ing their Shadow and their unlived lives onto their children and how t his makes the child unable to become aware of who they really are and that they are not their parents’ projections.We will work with aroma s that will empower us to recognize and face these archetypes, so we c an transform them from unconscious barriers into stepping tones for gr owth.Intimacy and Barriers to IntimacyDue to trauma, unconscious expec tations and cultural pressure, many of us struggle with being able to be truly intimate with our partners, no matter how much we want to. We will discuss aromas and rituals to enhance and cultivate intimacy and overcome fear and barriers.\n\n\n\n\nFor more information visit http: //transitionwhatcom.ning.com/events/the-alchemy-of-relationship DTSTART;TZID=America/Boise:20200425T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Boise:20200426T170000 CATEGORIES:class LOCATION:Wildroot Herb School WEBSITE:https://www.wildrootbotanicals.com/the-alchemy-of-relationship -with-cathy-skipper-and-florian-birkmeyer-md/ URL:https://www.wildrootbotanicals.com/the-alchemy-of-relationship-wit h-cathy-skipper-and-florian-birkmeyer-md/ CONTACT: ORGANIZER;CN="Leslie Lekos":http://transitionwhatcom.ning.com/profile/ LeslieWilliams ATTACH;FMTTYPE="image/jpeg": ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Leslie L ekos":http://transitionwhatcom.ning.com/profile/LeslieWilliams END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
