In this course, we will explore the “qualitative” aspect of time and the need to relate to this aspect in our daily life, with particular reference to the practice of psychotherapy.
An invaluable way to read time and to discern its requirement is by consulting the I Ching. In this course, we will look at selected passages from the I Ching in relation to time and timeliness. We will also discuss the attitude required when approaching the I Ching.
Furthermore, we will look at the I Ching and individual hexagrams in conjunction with the Jungian concepts of “synchronicity”, “enantiodromia”, “interplay of opposites”, and the “transcendent function”.
The course is discussion based, and consists of two parts, each 2.5 hours in length. Participants will be given selected passages for contemplation and discussion. These passages seek to serve as “bait” to elicit our responses coming from within.
