About Sandra
Dr. Sandra Luz del Castillo, PhD is a Jungian mentor, ritual artist, mythologist, dream guide, and the host of Blue Medicine Journal: A Jungian Podcast.
The daughter of a Mexican indigenous father and Scotch-Irish mother, she grew up in California, visiting family and vacationing in Mexico every winter. She moved to Mexico with her three children, where she lived for 15 years, studying and teaching in four different states.
She is the creator and host of “Blue Medicine Journal: A Jungian Podcast,” dedicated to imagining a new world into being. Sandra has a master’s degree and Ph.D. in Jungian and Archetypal Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute and a BA in English literature from UC Berkeley.
Her work blends worlds; privileging Mesoamerica, she applies a Jungian lens to these ancient and ensouled worldviews, mythologies, and Aztec philosophy. As she sees it, this is the true gold– buried,
but not lost, to the Spanish Conquest– and crucial today in
this dire and kairos moment.

Few words from some of my clients ...
Reflecting on my experience with Dr. Sandra Luz del Castillo, she has been a
multifaceted presence in my life, serving as both a teacher and a mentor.
Through her podcast (Blue Medicine Journal), she has instilled in me a sense of hope and renewal, offering profound insights. Dr. del Castillo also aided me by suggesting and guiding me with healing rituals during a time of tremendous grief after the loss of my beloved pet.
Sandra's boundless positivity and profound knowledge of storytelling as a form of
medicine have left an indelible mark on me, enriching my spiritual journey and fostering personal growth.
Without hesitation, I wholeheartedly recommend working with Sandra, as she embodies wisdom, compassion, and transformative power, guiding both mind
and spirit with her profound teachings and heartfelt presence.
