It’s the weekend and welcome back to the Jungian.Directory newsletter, where we bring you the latest events, books, courses, conferences and videos from around the Jungian world. Sit back, relax, and please enjoy what this week has to offer.
This week’s event lineup ranges from myth and epic, to inner complexes and unlikely parallels. Tonight, Jung Society Washington explores the Bhagavad Gita through a Jungian lens with Ashok Bedi. Tomorrow, the C G Jung Society of Atlanta turns to complexes and the “little people” of the inner life with James Hollis. Next month, the Association of Jungian Analysts compares narcissistic and borderline motifs in fairytales, and the British Psychotherapy Foundation finds parallels between Argentine tango and analysis with Sally Arthur.
We feature two new books. Raïna Manuel-Paris’s Ragnell – The Woman Who Was a Beast reimagines the Arthurian tale of Dame Ragnell and Sir Gawain, in which the beast is the real beauty. It is available now from Chiron Publications. And J. Hill’s Synchronicity in Grief, coming in October from Routledge, weaves Jungian theory with contemporary grief work.
Two conferences are upcoming: Pacifica Graduate Institute‘s Goddess-Makers 2026 explores collapse as threshold instead of a catastrophe, and the London Arts-Based Research Centre‘s The Art of Chaos takes place online in December, with its call for papers closing November 1.
We also feature two courses. Jung Platform opens a new course on self-hypnosis next month. And JUNG Archademy offers a course on performance anxiety, creativity, and individuation starting in November, with early-bird pricing now available.
At the very end of this email you will find this week’s selection of YouTube videos. The first is Robert Bosnak on embodied imagination between neuroscience and perception. Next, Paul Bishop speaks on Nietzsche as Jung’s intellectual precursor. Last, Dr Jeremy Ryōkan Woodcock explores trauma as a door to transcendence.
