Symbols in Your Psyche: The Inner Journey
February 21, 2003 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm PST
The uniqueness of analytical psychology lies in its emphasis on developing the capacity for symbolization. Jung’s life and work centered around the symbol-he imagined, dreamed, wrote, carved, painted, played with and sculpted the symbol. This lecture-slide presentation seeks to provide a meditative-experiential evening around such key Jungian concepts as the Meadow, Persona, Shadow, Anima-Animus and Self.
