We are delighted to announce that Paula J. Lambert, an award-winning Ohio poet whose work has long been influenced by the work of C.G. Jung and her own intense dream work, will be our speaker in June. Ms. Lambert has authored five chapbooks, including Uncertainty (The Only Hope We Have) (Bottlecap Press 2023) and four poetry collections.   Her newest collection of poetry, As If This Did Not Happen Every Day (Sheila-Na-Gig Editions 2024), will be the focus of her presentation.  This collection moves forward from the mostly bird-oriented poems she has been working on for years, focusing now on creatures such as fish, whales, turtles, and snakes.  In her presentation she will draw upon Jung materials as well as read from her own work.  Ms. Lambert’s work reflects her belief that salvation, if it is to be had, is not in mimicking the patriarchal.  Rather, grace lies within the larger, divine concept of a collective feminine intending to bring the world back to its natural balance.
