In 2009, nearly fifty years after Jung\u2019s death, his magnum opus was published in a stunning facsimile edition, a large red tome with dramatic paintings and visions inscribed in calligraphy. It is a modern illuminated manuscript whose story began shortly before the outbreak of WWI. It was not until 2021 that the six books of raw material that underlay the more polished red leather-bound volume were then also published. In total, these books capture Jung\u2019s \u201cconfrontation with the unconscious\u201d which began when he was thirty-eight years old. The extraordinary stories that they contain convey Jung\u2019s personal experience with the living psyche and the genesis of his entire original psychology.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe loving light was annihilated, and blood began to pour out. This was the great war. But the spirit of the depths wants this struggle to be understood as a conflict in every man\u2019s own nature.\u201d<\/blockquote>

\u2014 Carl Jung, “The Red Book,” p. 199<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

In this eight-part seminar, we\u2019ll read through the first two parts of The Red Book <\/em>and weave-in readings from The Black Books<\/em> as we the foundations of Jung\u2019s groundbreaking concepts, including individuation, the anima and animus, the shadow, the Self, the collective unconscious, the personal unconscious, and more. We\u2019ll see his thinking around the feminine and the masculine and the necessity of inner balance emerge, evolve, and then regress. While The Red Book<\/em> can be a challenging and dense read, it is a riveting doorway to the rest of Jung\u2019s works and an opportunity to read later writings with a more informed eye. It\u2019s a wonderful book to read with others, discuss, and hear read aloud.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe knowledge of the heart is in no book and is not to be found in the mouth of any teacher, but grows out of you like the green seed from the dark earth.\u201d<\/blockquote>

\u2014 Carl Jung, “The Red Book,” p. 133<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Readings:<\/strong> You\u2019ll want a copy of The Red Book<\/em> reader\u2019s edition<\/a> to follow along with readings, though it\u2019s not necessary to own the larger facsimile edition<\/a> or The Black Books<\/em><\/a>. And while we\u2019ll explore some of Jung\u2019s incredible paintings, the paintings themselves do not correlate clearly to the text (as is clarified with the text of The Black Books<\/em>) and will not be the focus of our seminar. No matter your background in Jung\u2019s work, this seminar will invite your curiosity and deepened understanding of his psychology.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cThe years, of which I have spoken to you, when I pursued the inner images, were the most important time of my life. Everything else is to be derived from this. \u2026My entire life consisted in elaborating what had burst forth from the unconscious and flooded me like an enigmatic stream and threatened to break me.\u201d \u2014 C.G. Jung<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
