Drawing from Dream: Illustration & Dreamwork Course with Elizabeth Haidle and Nico Wolf
"The dream is the small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul, which opens to that primeval cosmic night that was soul long before there was conscious ego and will be soul far beyond what a conscious ego could ever reach" - Carl Jung
Dreams have the ability to reveal what is hidden - a soul's longing, insights to quandaries of the mind, genius that might otherwise be occluded by the bright light of day. When entering into the dark wilds of night, we can awaken to unimaginable potential and freedom and glean from new depths of our own soul's knowing in connection to the All that Is.
In this two part, in-person course, we'll guide you through Liminal Arts practices that allow you to access the wisdom of Dreams whilst awake, teach you how to Dream with intention for particular purpose, how to glean healing imagery from those Dreams and then work with that imagery in the form of a Dream Guardian illustration and Dreaming Sigil image to work with for your own personal Dream explorations.
