We talk to Dr. Elizabeth Avetisian, a transpersonal scholar, about her fascinating research on coffee cup reading (tasseography) in the Armenian tradition, the Jungian collective unconscious, synchronicity, and archetypes. Can coffee cups allow us to tap into the creativity of the collective unconscious and do coffee cup readers have this special ability? Dr. Avetisian's research suggests so.

Here are some of the articles (and the dissertation) of Dr. Avetisian's that we discuss in this conversation:
