Mythic Silence
Greetings!
I've finally gotten over my timidness with posting (at least for today) to approach the community with a project that I've been working on. Please allow me to explain.
After graduating from college with a BA in English and a BA in art, I struggled to find myself a decent job. Therefore, I've returned to school to get another degree in Psychology with hopes of doing counseling or art therapy. Needless to say, there are many papers to be done, and I've been very interested in Tarot's potential applications for Psychotherapy.
My professor is very supportive of the idea, so my hunt for applicable sources has begun. I've had my nose in Arthur Rosengarten's book, Tarot and Psychology: Spectrums of Possibility. This has been a fascinating read, and so have the more general Psychotherapy sources I've found.
I was just curious to see what others around here might have to say about the topic. As excited as I am about it, I don't have too many people to share my enthusiasm with, so I thought maybe folks around here would have some opinions or experiences to share. If you know of any current literature on the subject, that would be wonderful as well, but this thread is in no way a "go do my assignment for me" thread. I'm just interested in stimulating some discussion. ^_^
(I hope this goes here and not in Tarot books since this is a discussion about Psychology and Tarot and not the books specifically, but if I am wrong I do apologize.)
Thank you for reading and have a great day!
