Mother Night:

Myths, Stories & Teachings for Learning to See in the Dark

(Sounds True, May 2010)

This collection of 8 CDs provides 10 hours of insight and instruction in the form of stories and myths from poet, scholar, and Jungian psychoanalyst Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D. Estes is also the author of the international bestseller Women Who Run With the Wolves (Ballantine Books, 1992), and a recognized cantadora, a keep of stories and traditions within the Latina tradition. Estes believes the human soul is an “endangered species,” and that as human beings, we’ve become perilously disconnected from the natural and spiritual worlds in which we exist. The multiple archetypes of Mother Night as applied by Estes represent a return to, and a simultaneous awareness of, our soul’s true nature and the creative forces that dwell in our unconscious and how to reclaim them in order to experience our truest, most powerful selves.
