THE RELEVANCE OF ALCHEMY TO OUR WORK AS ANALYSTS AND PSYCHOTHERAPIST AND ON OUR JOURNEY OF INDIVIDUATION
It is almost impossible to conductresearch into the psyche and the psychological process because of itsindividual and collective nature, both conscious and unconscious. Jung soughtto understand this further after his Red and Black Book experiences.
My interactive seminars will show why alchemy is so helpful, whether for psychotherapy, analysis, or individuation, as well as looking at alchemists’ (mostly unconscious) efforts to discover the ’spirit’ in matter and the effect this has on our exploration of the God image.
We will discuss the different stages and operations, examining how they can be seen in ordinary life issues and difficulties. We will also look at the process that may be needed to develop our selves, psychologically and spiritually.
We will end with an exploration of the nature of the Lapis Philosophorum and Christ parallel that Jung put so much emphasis on.
