Hello and welcome,

It’s Friday again and welcome to another edition of the Jungian.Directory newsletter, where we bring you the latest events, books, courses, conferences and videos from around the Jungian world.

Our calendar is practically overflowing with events this weekend. Our spotlight falls on the Independent Group of Analytical Psychologists, who gather next weekend to explore Jung and the Epic of Gilgamesh. Closer to hand, tonight the New Mexico Society of Jungian Analysts looks at the body as a portal to the soul and at how trauma can be transformed. Tomorrow, the Guild of Pastoral Psychology turns to St Francis of Assisi through the lens of depth psychology. On Sunday the C.G. Jung Club of Orange County considers a “Hollywood individuation story” from Patrick Roth’s novel Starlite Terrace.

Two books from Chiron Publications are now available. The Alchemical Mind by Leslie de Galbert has just been published, and brings the work of Francisco Varela into conversation with Jung and Tibetan Buddhism. Tending the Fire by Enrique Martínez Celaya and James Hollis was published earlier this year.

Among the conferences, the Sociedad Chilena de Psicología Analítica holds its tenth Jornada de Psicología Analítica on this weekend, exploring polarisation and uncertainty in the world today, both in person and online. Further ahead, the New York Center for Jungian Studies and the C.G. Jung Institute of Chicago invite you to Jung in India 2027, a journey through Kerala in South India early next year. Registration is now open.

We also feature two courses. The Assisi Institute presents a six-month Beginning Dream Patterning Certification Program from 21 October. The C.G. Jung Institute of Los Angeles starts a practical workshop on 3 November, in which participants paint their way into a Grimm fairy tale. Both of these can be attended online.

At the end of this email, three YouTube videos await you. In the first, This Jungian Life co-hosts the first summit on depth psychology and AI.  In the next, Christian Roesler offers a revised theory of archetypes for the twenty-first century. Lastly, Juliana Delgado and Gustavo Barcellos discuss their new books of psychological essays, inspired by James Hillman, with the Archetypal Psychology Group at the University of São Paulo.

Friday Newsletter

Every Friday (4pm GMT) the Jungian.Directory sends a newsletter to our subscribers with the latest news,  events, conferences, books, articles, courses, podcasts and videos from around the Jungian world.

Our editors regularly check the websites and email newsletters of every IAAP and related Jungian organisation from around the whole world. So if it is Jungian and it is happening, we will tell you about it.

Fairy tales told aloud, with more to hear, watch and read
The day is over, the sun sinks below the horizon, beginning its journey through the underworld. The sky turns orange, then violet, and the first stars come out. Under the trees the dark has already gathered itself, thick and quiet, and somewhere in it a branch cracks. The certainty of…

An online workshop next weekend, the 24th of October, from the JAP
Ask Robert Tyminski what brings adolescent boys into his consulting room and he will tell you the words they most often use: I’m broken. They rarely know why. Something is wrong, they can’t explain it, and increasingly the screen in their pocket is both where the trouble plays out and…
