Happy Halloween weekend and welcome to this week’s edition of the Jungian.Directory newsletter, where we bring you the latest events, books, courses, conferences and videos from around the Jungian world.
The nights are drawing in and the veil between worlds is said to grow thin, which makes it a fine time to be curious! We feature four events. In the spotlight is a lecture from the Philemon Foundation on Sunday, in which Martin Liebscher explores one of Jung’s early studies, a 1905 investigation of an epileptic patient. Tomorrow, Southern Arizona Friends of Jung hosts an online seminar with Sulagna Sengupta on Jung’s relationship with India. On Sunday the Maine Jung Center explores play as a path to individuation. On Thursday, Jung Archademy celebrates fifty years of Pacifica Graduate Institute in a free online event.
We feature two books. Now available is The Evolution of Consciousness through Depth Psychology by V. Jankowski, by Routledge, Also by Routledge, Women, Surrealism, and Jungian Psychology: Confrontations with the Unconscious by C. Cooper will be published in March 2027.
We also feature two conferences. Still to come this year in November in China, the China Society for Analytical Psychology gathers around the I Ching and asks where the psyche can find repose in the age of AI. Next year in February the Austrian Society for Analytical Psychology holds its inaugural online symposium on sex and psychotherapy.
We also feature two online courses. Starting Monday, the London Arts-Based Research Centre offers a five-week course on leading through connection, using the Mother Tree as a guide to facilitation and group work. Starting Wednesday, Jung Platform explores the opening verses of Rumi’s Masnavi, the Lament of the Reed, through Islamic mysticism and depth psychology.
We have selected three YouTube videos, which you will find at the end of this email. First, Speaking of Jung welcomes Leslie Stein to launch the final novel in his trilogy on individuation. Next, Murray Stein continues his seminars on Jung’s Map of the Soul with a look at the personal and collective unconscious. Lastly, Daniela Boccassini traces how the Grail myth shaped Jung’s inner life and work.
