Jung once said in a BBC interview “The world hangs by a thin thread, and that thread is the psyche of man.” Yet commentators on our many contemporary social and political conflicts rarely discuss the underlying psychological factors. In this special, member-exclusive event, four local analysts will present brief reflections on the relevance of Jung’s ideas to our current, troubling situation in the country and the world. We are honored to be joined by local analysts Dick Sweeney, Teresa Arendell, Rick Bouchard, and Donald Kalsched as they employ the timeless wisdom of Jungian thought to answer and dissect questions as they emerge from the collective unconscious. The evening will begin with a “social hour” with coffee and refreshments being served, and will then transition into the panel discussion, with plenty of time allocated for a rich discussion as well as audience questions.
