‘Your Face in the Fire’ by Naomi Ruth Lowinsky
I’m pleased to see the release of Lowinsky’s sixth poetry collection on June 1. A Jungian analyst, Lowinsky creates poetry I greatly appreciate, including Adagio and Lamentation in 2010 from Fisher King Press.
“Naomi Ruth Lowinsky’s soul was shaped by deep impressions made on her by India, where she lived for two years in the 1960s. It was there the Goddess claimed her. It was there that myths began singing to her. It was there her soul remembered other lives. It was there her stars insisted she learn to tend her fire. And the fire spoke: I am the heat of your passion. It is I who will show you your way.”

“Naomi Ruth Lowinsky’s book of poetry: Your Face in the Fire, speaks with an impassioned voice which opens us up to that vast space which we find in Jung’s Red Book. It is a vibrant standpoint from which she encounters the mysteries of the psyche. Through her poetic imagination, we get to participate in her vision-making process. Nourished by her dreams that invite us to imagine with her as she expresses a lifetime of creating, engaging, reflecting, and reworking while showing us how her process is not only transformational for her but for anyone who opens up to the reality of their experiences of psyche’s being. The archetypal dimension shines through this book.” – Sam Kimbles
