Jung\u2019s initiatory journey into the \u201cspirit of the depths<em>\u201c<\/em> was creative but required profound psychic courage, suffering, and patience as he confronted the unconscious and discovered \u201cthe third thing.\u201d\u00a0 Upon his \u201creturn,\u201d when Jung wrote that \u201ceverything of which we are conscious is an image, and that image is psyche,\u201d he elevated the imagination and creative processes. One of the gifts was his essay <em>The Transcendent Function<\/em> which conceptualized how unconscious and invisible psychic material became conscious and visible through play, dedication, endurance of wrestling with the opposites, and the respect for the ineffable and irrational aspects of the psyche.\u00a0 Jung thereby came to understand the importance of the \u201cthird thing.\u201d\u00a0 Jung\u2019s investigations into the unconscious through various creative means opened the door and gave credence for the expressive arts therapies. In this lecture the three-part initiation model provides a container in which we consider Jung\u2019s wisdom and how the \u201cthird thing\u201d may offer hints on living a creative life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Saturday Workshop | 10am-3pm | $100<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drawing from the three stages of a creative initiation journey \u2013 Gateway, Attending, Passage \u2013 we build a container, attend to the unconscious, and awaken the prospective psyche. The initiatory task of allowing for the \u201cthe third thing\u201d or the \u201cother\u201d to present itself is a visual validation of the spontaneous psychic energy that gives meaning to lines, shapes, and colors. With our open-mind, curiosity, and determination, we will welcome the visual and expressive images as \u201cstrangers\u201d and respect and honor the journey that unfolds.<\/p>\n<p>Using art materials, writing, dreams, and\/or active imagination,\u00a0 each person will attend to creative tasks to mark and document the imaginal path of individuation. Various prompts and tasks will be provided, while individuals who are more comfortable with materials can follow their own process within the creative initiation process.<\/p>\n<p>*Artistic skill not necessary, only the willingness to be on the Fool\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n<p>**Supplies: please have a large journal, container of water, several different brushes, watercolor paper, acrylics or watercolors, basic oil crayons, tissue paper, tape, glue.
