This talk will explore points of ‘queer potential’ in Jung’s work, especially from the Red Book – a work that was too ‘queer’ to ‘come out of the closet’ at the time it was written. It will also look at aspects of analytical psychology that need revising to create space for queer and trans individuation, rather than centering knee jerk, thoughtless and pathologising discourses. A queer Jungian epistemology will be proposed, that views gender and sexuality as bio-psycho-social – and mysterious! Its aim isn’t just to enable better clinical work with queer and trans patients, but to transform gender and sexuality for everyone.
Is Jung Queer?
