Rachael Wooten

Rachael Wooten, PhD, is a Zürich-trained Jungian analyst and psychologist who has been in private practice as a therapist for more than forty years. As a child, she was drawn to different religious expressions and followed her instincts to study and practice in different traditions. Her interests in human consciousness led her to the field of psychology, and given its limitations for encompassing the whole of the individual, she began Jungian studies and a deep dive into spiritual practices for her own healing, that of her clients, and members of her community.

She is the author of 'Tara: The Liberating Power of the Female Buddha' (published by Sounds True), a practical guide for invoking the power and blessings of Tara, the beloved female Buddhist deity of Tibet. Known as 'the female Buddha' in Tibet and India, Tara connects practitioners to the archetypal Divine Feminine—an energetic force that exists within all humans and has been available since our earliest origins.

In addition to her book, Rachael has developed the Tara Cards, a set of 22 double-sided cards serving as a companion to the book. Each card features Green Tara on one side and one of her twenty-one emanations on the other, with descriptions of each emanation, her mantra, her praise, and a brief statement about that Tara's action.
