It’s the weekend and welcome to the newest edition of the Jungian.Directory newsletter, where we bring you the latest events, books, courses, conferences and videos from around the Jungian world. We hope you enjoy what this week has on offer!
This week, we begin with four upcoming events exploring death, Jung’s early clinical work, spiritual guidance, and the contribution of Analytical Psychology to current events. Today, the C. G. Jung Foundation for Analytical Psychology looks at Jung’s encounters with the dead in the Black Books. Tomorrow, the Jung Society of Washington welcomes Sonu Shamdasani for its annual C.G. Jung Birthday Fundraising Lecture, exploring the formative years of Jung’s clinical and psychological work. On Sunday, the Pari Center offers a guided journey into the experience of consciousness and our connection with a Greater Guidance. And on Monday, the C. G. Jung-Gesellschaft Freiburg continues its monthly series asking what Analytical Psychology can contribute to our understanding of current events.
Two new books are featured this week. Synchronicity in Grief is forthcoming from Routledge in October. Also coming soon from Chiron Publications is Two Dreamers In The Heart Of Seas.
Two conferences are coming up in Warsaw in August 2027 and the call for papers is now open. The IAAP’s 2nd European Conference on Childhood, Adolescence and Young Adults will explore identity, relationships, and mirrors in times of transformation. The following week, the 7th IAAP European Analytical Congress turns to the alchemical image of the coniunctio and the challenges of bringing opposites into relationship in a rapidly changing world.
Two courses are open for enrolment. Starting in August, the C.G. Jung Society of Melbourne offers an eight-week online exploration of dreams and creativity. And from October, Pacifica Graduate Institute turns to the unconscious, comedy, and the transformative power of humour.
This week’s YouTube selection explores fate, Jung’s life, and synchronicity. In the first video, Morgan Stebbins joins Speaking of Jung to discuss fate, destiny, projection, synchronicity, dreams, and the deeper callings of the psyche. The second explores Jung’s life through the evolution of his retreat at Bollingen Tower and the relationship between his outer and inner worlds. And in the third, Jung in the World examines synchronicity at the deathbed, as Dan Ross reflects on thirty years of hospice work and the meaning of Jung’s most misunderstood theory at the end of life
