Naomi Ruth Lowinsky comes from a family of refugees who fled Nazi Germany. Her poetry has always engaged the political, but during the Trump era it has become an emotional necessity to make poems out of night terrors. A widely published and anthologized poet she is the winner of the Blue Light Poetry Prize as well as the Obama Millennial Prize. Her fourth poetry collection The Faust Woman Poems follows one woman's Faustian adventures during the 1960s and '70s, through Women's Liberation and the return of the Goddess. Lowinsky is a Jungian Analyst and a member of the San Francisco Jung Institute where she has taught a poetry workshop, Deep River, for over a decade. Her new book of essays, "The Rabbi, the Goddess and Jung," contemplates what the Kabbalah calls the "beyond that lies within"-the still small voice of the Self, and the wisdom that comes from dreams and active imagination. She is the Poetry Editor of Psychological Perspectives, and blogs about poetry and life at sisterfrombelow.com See less
