This short story was inspired by the gathering of three female analysts and myself, Marilyn Marshall, all members of the faculty of the New Orleans Jungian Seminar (a training seminar with the Inter-Regional Society of Jungian Analysts). The four of us began to meet for long weekends to discuss our stories, our dreams—our journeys with Psyche. Without agenda or goal, other than to be together in what evolved as a space outside of expectation and responsibility, the meetings felt magical, mysterious in the unconscious material that surfaced, the psychic processes that deepened, and time that slowed.
After one such weekend, I felt so much fullness that I sat down that night and wrote “The Magic Table: The Rumor” in gratitude for our time together, for our feminine legacy, and for Psyche. I sent it to the group, and shortly afterward, Constance Romero responded to “The Rumor” with “The Quickening.”
