Book excerpt: Norma Churchill, now in her late 80s, has spent the last 20 years organizing the paintings and text from a remarkable series of visions she experienced in the 1970's, while living in San Francisco and practicing C.G. Jung's method of active imagination. This is a narrative of symbolic journeys in which Churchill was shown the wounds lying beneath the "progress" of modern culture. Her paintings on rice paper take us with her into the presence of the beings and scenes she encountered. Norma is a participant in her visions, and she depicts herself in her paintings, showing us the surprise, wonder, ecstasy, and intense, physically-felt suffering of her visionary experience.
