“The unconscious can only be reached by symbols . . . The symbol is the primitive exponent of the unconscious, and at the same time an idea that corresponds to the highest intuitions of the unconscious mind.” CG Jung (CW 13, p. 28)

This workshop will familiarize you with the foundation of Jung’s life and his basic concepts. Terms such as shadow, complex, individuation, ego, Self, symbol, typology, personal and collective unconscious, etc. will be explored. Jung never meant his work to be just an intellectual exercise, so we will discuss how his ideas relate to our real lives. The format will be lecture and discussion. Film clips and case material will augment our understanding.  No prior knowledge is required.
