“If only a world-wide consciousness could arise that (sees that) all division…(is) due to the splitting of opposites in the psyche,\u00a0then we should know where to begin.”<\/em><\/p>\n

–C.G. Jung,\u00a0CW 10<\/em><\/p>\n

In many ways, we are currently living in difficult times. Many of us are struggling to make sense of these confusing and disorienting experiences. These tremendous conflicts (both inner and outer, individual and collective) can be seen as the focus of Jung’s final work,\u00a0Mysterium Coniunctionis (CW 14)<\/em>, which Edward Edinger called “an anatomy book for the psyche.” Here Jung draws on the richly symbolic world of alchemy as the “great collective dream of our ancestors” to offer a path through the clashing opposites of longing, fear, desire, loss, isolation and forced adaptation.<\/p>\n

Please join us for this timely exploration as we dare to ask: how can we, even in these difficult times, contribute to the necessary confrontation with the greater personality and its drive toward actualized wholeness?\u00a0In this experiential course, we will explore this timely collection of dynamics and their antidotes, both inside and outside of the analytic consulting room.<\/p>\n
