GRADUATE CERTIFICATE IN CELTIC MYTHOLOGY

February 11 – September 9, 2026

Join me at Pacifica Graduate Institute online to explore the mythology of the Celtic inhabitants of the British Isles and Ireland. We’ll delve into the most instructive and inspirational myths and their key actors, motifs and themes, examine the role of women, animals, kings and heroes, the land – and, most important of all, the pervasive influence of the Otherworld. We’ll consider the influence that the arrival of Christianity had on Celtic mythology, and the ways in which the pagan and Christian religions intersected. This 8-month course will be suitable both for clinicians and researchers who are interested in finding new mythological systems to draw on, and for individuals who are interested in deepening their knowledge of and personal work within the Celtic traditions. 

A PSYCHE THE SIZE OF EARTH

23 – 28 February, 2026 

During this residential retreat at Broughton Sanctuary in North Yorkshire, we’ll learn how to fully participate in what psychologist James Hillman called ‘a psyche the size of Earth’. We’ll listen to the land’s dreaming, and in the process, we’ll find ourselves getting dreamt. Through story, journeying, writing, map-making and land-based practices, we’ll explore the imaginal in the land, questing for the richly mythic and archetypal Otherworld our native traditions. The work we’ll do is rooted in mythology and archetypal psychology – but above all, it’s rooted in a deeply grounded participation in the land where our feet are planted. We’ll learn to re-enchant ourselves, to restore the more-than-human element in our sense of self, and to weave ourselves more deeply into the living stories of our places.
