Welcome to Friday and welcome to this week’s edition of the Jungian.Directory newsletter, bringing you the latest events, books, courses, conferences and videos from around the Jungian world. We hope you enjoy what this week has to offer.
There’s plenty to keep you busy this week on the events front. Tonight, Jung Archademy explores how the body was relegated to the shadow, and what neuroscience reveals about reclaiming the embodied soul. Tomorrow brings active imagination into dialogue with Buddhist meditation in a rich cross-cultural workshop. Monday, Pacifica Graduate Institute introduces its newly launched online doctoral program in Mythology and Religious Studies. And Thursday, the BPF asks whether theoretical divisions in psychoanalysis can ever really be separated from institutional hierarchy and power.
Two new titles are worth your attention this week. Paul Bishop’s Jung and the Epic of Transformation Volume 3 is coming soon from Chiron Publications. And Anne Maguire’s Skin Disease: A Message from the Soul is releasing Monday from Daimon Verlag.
Two conferences are worth marking in your calendar. The Pari Center gathers physicists, philosophers, and depth psychologists in Italy this coming weekend to ask what happens when mind is brought back into physics. And in November, the China Society for Analytical Psychology convenes for its 11th International Conference.
On the courses front, two offerings are open for enrolment. Starting tomorrow, Pacifica Graduate Institute launches a six-week microcredential exploring AI as a relational and psychological presence in the helping professions. From May 14, Jung Archademy offers a four-week depth-psychological inquiry into shadow work.
Scroll to the very end for this week’s YouTube selection. First, Safron Rossi presents at the IAJS seminar on astrology and alchemy as complementary cosmologies of the soul. Next, Francesco Bocci explores gaming as a liminal space for psychological exploration. Finally, Vladislav Šolc takes a Jungian view of fundamentalism and dark religion.
