Volume 2; Issue 1
From the minute introspection of a dandelion or a snail to the larger contemplation of a daughter’s poignant remembrance of her late mother and a wife’s betrayal to the Jungian perspective of dream narratives in midlife spiritual development, this issue offers much more beautiful and thought-provoking words and images.
