“Eros is kosmogonos, a creator and father-mother of all higher consciousness.”
C.G. Jung, Memories, Dreams, Reflections (1962), p.353
Eros is a powerful god. In mythology Eros often wreaked havoc, as it does in our own experiences. In our lives Eros mixes quite magnificently with our complexes and can bring us to ecstatic heights or to the depths of despair.
Recognizing that our complexes easily merge with Eros and recognizing that the beloved is often a projection of our psychic contents can help move us on our individuation path. In this presentation we will explore the spiritual and sensual dimensions of eros and the roles both projection and our complexes play in our relationships and in our individuation process. We will amplify our exploration with mythology and fairy tale, dreams and clinical experience.
