Thesis (Ph.D.)--Pacifica Graduate Institute, 2004.

The mythic theme of heroic ascent that has dominated Western culture across time cries out for somatic grounding. This is as true today as it was 500 years ago when The Lady and the Unicorn tapestry was first conceived of and created. Traditionally interpreted as an allegory of the senses (touch, sight, smell, hearing, and taste), the tapestry's six panels carry archetypal dimensions in their imagery, suggesting the impetus toward incarnation and alchemical transformation. The Lady, symbolically associated with the soul's wisdom, can be understood as the reconciling agent in the ancient split between body and spirit. In this work, I have emphasized the feminine symbolism of body, soul, and the entire material world, based upon a long tradition within mythology and theology of equating these realms with the feminine body-vessel.

520 $a The mythic theme of heroic ascent that has dominated Western culture across time cries out for somatic grounding. This is as true today as it was 500 years ago when The Lady and the Unicorn tapestry was first conceived of and created. Traditionally interpreted as an allegory of the senses (touch, sight, smell, hearing, and taste), the tapestry's six panels carry archetypal dimensions in their imagery, suggesting the impetus toward incarnation and alchemical transformation. The Lady, symbolically associated with the soul's wisdom, can be understood as the reconciling agent in the ancient split between body and spirit. In this work, I have emphasized the feminine symbolism of body, soul, and the entire material world, based upon a long tradition within mythology and theology of equating these realms with the feminine body-vessel.
520 $a The circular room at the Cluny Museum in Paris, home to The Lady and the Unicorn tapestry, suggested my thematic hermeneutic method. This approach was facilitated through an empathic engagement with my subject, and a strong heuristic element that emphasized self in the work through the inclusion of dreams, artwork, journaling, active imagination, and reveries. By following the archetypal rhythms of the individuation process through each of tapestry's six panels, I attempt to reveal the indivisibility of self and culture in the larger evolutionary adventure. Synchronistic events, emerging out of the meeting between the historical past and present, directed the course of this study over time.
520 $a Major findings of the study include the need for somatic grounding in both depth psychology and history as a way of engendering individual and collective transformation. Re-situating psychology in art was found to be a powerful co-determinant in this process. The dynamic interaction between the dissertation process, the thematic material, my personal journey of individuation, and the autonomous quality of language, was acknowledged as a co-creative element of this work.
