SUMMARY:The Moving Imagination
DESCRIPTION:‘I move\,’ is the clear knowledge that I personally\, am moving. The opposite of this is the sudden and astonishing moment when ‘I am moved.’ It is a moment when the ego gives up control\, stops exerting demands\, allowing the Self to take over moving the physical body as it will. It is a moment of unpremeditated surrender that cannot be explained\, replicated exactly\, sought for or tried out.\nMary Starks Whitehouse \nThis one day workshop will introduce an approach to movement that was originally developed by Mary Whitehouse. Sometimes called “authentic movement” or “movement in depth\,” it involved a mover\, a witness\, and their relationship. We’ll take up the development of this work an its use as a form of active imagination. Morning and afternoon sessions will include lecture\, movement experience and discussion. Participants are invited to bring journals and/or art materials. Enrollment will be limited.

SUMMARY:Changemakers: Sibling Position\, Family Atmosphere\, and Questions about The Psychological Roots of Democracy and Dictatorship
DESCRIPTION:It is technically very simple to note down the “other” voice in writing and to answer its statements from the standpoint of the ego. It is exactly as if a dialogue were taking place between two human beings with equal rights.\nC.G. Jung \nJung’s statement conveys the essence of his method of active imagination\, which is a re-activation in psychotherapy of the innate process of individuation. If we look to the socio-political world for the projection of this process\, it would appear to be democracy. “A dialogue…between two human beings with equal rights” is the essence of democracy. It is also the essence of true friendship and of true marriage. We need only look to ourselves\, to our friends\, our spouses\, our family\, to realize how imperfect is our commitment to “true” democracy. Nevertheless\, the ideal exists\, and we are often painfully aware when we fail its requirements.  \nThis lecture will take up the influence of family and sibling position on the destiny of the individual and the future of society. Dr. Stewart will look at political leaders and discuss how an individual may be “seized by the spirit\,” for good or for evil\, democracy or dictatorship in the world. His study reveals a startling\, new perspective on the family as it focuses on the largely unconscious factors that determine the use and abuse of power.

SUMMARY:A 3-Day Workshop: Going on a Quest: Opening to the Creative Day 3
DESCRIPTION:There is a center in us which\, if we could but open to it\, would give us strength\, wisdom\, and the capacity to live our creative potential. Connection with this center gives our lives presence and vitality. Creativity depends on it. Like most real truths\, this potential is hidden: the “treasure hard to attain”. There are tools for contacting and remaining open to it.  \nThis workshop uses the creative arts and body movements as an opener to the depths of the psyche\, to what Jung calls “the Self”. It is an opportunity to play with color and shape. No previous knowledge or art skills are necessary-only a longing for a deeper understanding\, a joy in color and a wish to play again.  \nParticipants should write their own stories-as if your life were a personal myth or fairy tale-and bring them to the workshop. What are you in search of? Where are you on your pilgrimage? Where do you think you will be at the end? Please also reflect on your favorite fairy tale as a child and your current favorite. This material will be enhanced by the revelations that will arise during the weekend. Bodywork will be coordinated with collage work. Collage materials will be provided.

SUMMARY:The Archetype of the Animus and Feminine Consciousness
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will present both the definition and the experience of the animus within a woman’s psyche\, along with the other manifestations in collective life. We will see through examples the vital importance of a woman’s conscious relationship to this archetype for her relationships to men\, creativity\, psychological autonomy and spiritual fulfillment.

SUMMARY:Once Upon a Noon Time: Fairy Tales and the Psychology of Men and Women at Mid-Life
DESCRIPTION:This lecture and workshop will explore the archetypal masks of mid-life as depicted in fairy tales from around the world. Some dozen stories from Germany\, Persia\, Russia\, Japan\, Israel\, and Italy will be retold and discussed. These tales portray crucial tasks of mid-life: transforming youthful ideals into practical action; breaking gender stereotypes to free the anima and animus; for men\, learing new forms of masculine power from a Spirit Brother; for women\, embracing a Sisterhood of Nature beyond patriarchy or matriarchy; and for both men and women\, reconciling opposites through contact with a primordial life source\, a center of creativity and healing.

SUMMARY:The Girl Within: Touchstone for Women's Identity
DESCRIPTION:The workshop will focus on reclaiming “the girl within” through: \n    guided meditations that revive forgotten girlhood memories\n    photographic images of girls and women\n    imaginary dialogues with the inner girl \nBy tracing a new pattern of female identity development\, we will seek to rediscover the spirited\, self-possessed girl within ourselves. Those who are therapists will acquire a new set of tools for working with clients engaged in the search for the true self.

SUMMARY:The Girl Within: Touchstone for Women's Identity
DESCRIPTION:Caught between selfless devotion and selfish ambition\, contemporary women are repeatedly disconnected from their inner authority. Many women accomplish much of what they set out to do but all too often lose themselves striving for success. Without a female blueprint for identity\, where is today’s woman to look for a bedrock sense of self? \nThe notion we will explore this weekend is that the source of female identity is lodged in the girl of eight or nine. Women’s life studies show that a woman comes fully into her own only when she circles back to catch hold of the girl she was-and lost-in childhood.

SUMMARY:The Vampire Archetype and Vampiric Relationships
DESCRIPTION:The vampire myth\, with its riveting fascination\, is one of the oldest and most widespread legends throughout the world. Fatal symbiosis and the nourishing of oneself with another’s vitality-two central characteristics of the vampire legend-are also dark and bewildering elements of the shadow in many human relationships. Over this weekend\, Julia McAfee will explore with us the history of the vampire in legend as well as the nature and dynamics of the vampire shadow in personal relationships. She will also focus on vampirism and the creative process.

SUMMARY:From the Sound of It: Reflections on the Persona as Viewed Through Sound
DESCRIPTION:Persona comes from the Latin verb ‘personare’\, meaning ‘to sound through’ (per\, through; and sonare\, to sound). Sound is a vital source of our impressions about the outer world. Sounds tell us about nature. Creation myths begin with sound. Sounds evoke emotions. The voice is a conveyer of the psychic state of another person. From this perspective the voice can be viewed as a screen for projections allowing more than the contents of what someone says to be perceived. Experiences of sound are embedded in our figures of speech\, as for example in the expressions ‘I hear you’\, or ‘that sounds like a good idea’. In this lecture we will look at the neglected aspects of sound\, particularly as the relate to the persona. If you like the sound of this\, come to hear more…

SUMMARY:Warts and All: The Shadow and Wholeness
DESCRIPTION:Getting rid of the negative is our habitual Western approach to improving ourselves and the world. This often turns out to mean cultivating an idealized self-image by repressing unwelcome parts of our nature into the unconscious shadow. The shadow is then projected onto others and there seen as evil calling for condemnation and destruction.  \nErich Newmann wrote in Depth Psychology and a New Ethic\, “The Time has now come for the principle of perfection to be sacrificed on the altar of wholeness.” The seminar will focus on shadow formation and projection; bipolar adversarial conflict; scapegoating; victimology; the anthropology of “evil”; and shadow reclamation in the service of wholeness.

SUMMARY:The Evolution of Satan: Adversary and Adversity
DESCRIPTION:The name Satan derives from a Hebrew verb meaning to obstruct\, oppose\, block. In the Old Testament\, satans are agents of God sent to carry out this and other satanic functions like disruption\, agitation\, slander\, and affliction. Christian dualism makes Satan an almost independent personage\, a god of evil\, yet he may still be a meaningful and necessary part of the whole. Psychologically\, Satan can be seen as the enemy of ego\, of conscious goals and values\, a personification of advers-ity both outer and inner. What\, then\, is our proper attitude toward such opposition? How do we relate to our failures and defeats\, our affliction and suffering? What are the “uses of adversity”?

SUMMARY:The Child as Image and Reality in Art and Fairytales
DESCRIPTION:We all share the child because we all experienced childhood and we all carry a symbolic inner child within us on a daily basis until death. Two important avenues into this world are fairy tales and artistic creation.  \nIn this experiential workshop participants will be encouraged to actively share ideas and associations to the material presented to them. The workshop also serves as a container for sharing personal experiences. how do you experience your parents and their value system? Your siblings? Who is your symbolic child? What is the relevance of the inner child in your life? Do we or do we not have easy access? How can you best utilize the wisdom of the inner child?

SUMMARY:Reflections on Childhood and the Child in the Analysis of Adults
DESCRIPTION:This presentation on childhood will attempt to show the importance of analyzing childhood and relating to the personal childhood past of each of us. In addition we will look at the symbolic child within us. How we trust it and whether we value its messages determines the degree of psychological and spiritual integration we strive for during our lifetime.

SUMMARY:The Moving Imagination
DESCRIPTION:‘I move\,’ is the clear knowledge that I personally\, am moving. The opposite of this is the sudden and astonishing moment when ‘I am moved.’ It is a moment when the ego gives up control\, stops exerting demands\, allowing the Self to take over moving the physical body as it will. It is a moment of unpremeditated surrender that cannot be explained\, replicated exactly\, sought for or tried out.\nMary Starks Whitehouse \nThis one day workshop will introduce an approach to movement that was originally developed by Mary Whitehouse. Sometimes called “authentic movement” or “movement in depth\,” it involved a mover\, a witness\, and their relationship. We’ll take up the development of this work an its use as a form of active imagination. Building on material presented Friday evening\, we’ll focus on the ongoing\, interwoven relationship of body\, psyche\, and emotions. Morning and afternoon sessions will include lecture\, movement experience and discussion. Participants are invited to bring journals and/or art materials. Enrollment will be limited.

SUMMARY:Body\, Psyche\, and the Emotions
DESCRIPTION:“On the one hand\, emotion is the chemical fire whose warmth brings everything into existence and whose heat burns all superfluities to ashes…But on the other hand\, emotion is the moment when steel meets flint and a spark is struck forth\, for emotion is the chief source of consciousness. There is no change from darkness to light or from inertia to movement without emotion.”\nC.G. Jung  \nFor Jung\, the emotions are the foundations of the psyche. The highest aspirations of the human spirit have evolved and are developed from them. An emotion is at once somatic (bodily innervations\, expressive physical action) and psychic (images and ideas). Active imagination\, Jung’s analytical method of psychotherapy\, is intricately interwoven with the expression and transformation of the emotions.  \nA differentiated understanding of the emotions is of great value to both analyst and analysand. We can train ourselves to recognize the fundamental emotions. One of the most useful approaches is through the study of the prototypical expressive actions. Darwin was the first to differentiate between the fundamental emotions\, the complex emotions\, and the symbolic cultural gestures. This lecture will take up the fudnamental emotions\, with particular attention to universal patterns of expressive behavior. This material is drawn from experiences in dance\, dance therapy\, and analysis\, as well as the contributions of Darwin\, Jung\, Henderson\, Tomkins\, and Stewart.

SUMMARY:In the Ever After: Fairy Tales and the Second Half of Life
DESCRIPTION:Handed down over centuries\, fairy tales are treasuries of wisdom distilling the observations and reflections of countless generations. In most familiar stories\, like “Cinderella” or “Snow White\,” the protagonist is a child or adolescent. These tales emphasize the psychological tasks of youth and end when the hero and heroine marry and (supposedly!) live “happily ever after.”  \nA unique group of fairy tales feature protagonists who are in the second-half of life. These “elder tales” reveal what really happens in the “ever after”-when the Prince becomes bald and the Princess dons bifocals.  \nIn this lecture and workshop a number of “elder tales” from around the world will be retold and discussed. The stories contain deep insights about the tasks of maturity\, from self-reformation and self-transcendence\, to helping the next generation and being open to magic. In charming and poignant dramas\, the tales depcit the final quest in life-for wisdom and illumination.

SUMMARY:The Return of the Spirit: C.G. Jung’s Psychological Foundation for 12-Step Programs
DESCRIPTION:When Dr. Lavin presented his Depth Psychology of Alcoholism lectures here in Portland in 1986\, he talked about Jung’s understanding that a person who lost contact with her or his inner creative spirit often went on to abuse alcoholic spirits in order to get high and warm again.  \nIn this lecture series\, Dr. Lavin will discuss the many forms of spirit and the ways in which twelve-step programs support the rediscovery of the creative spirit both within and without. In their best form\, twelve-step programs are meeting places and containers for the ecstasy of Youth and wisdom of the Wise Old Woman and Old Man.  \nThe lecture and workshop will discuss sobriety as a process of remembering one’s Self by loving the body\, finding the soul\, and accepting the embrace of one’s creative spirit. To grow in sobriety means letting go of dependence and co-dependence and walking a path which liberates the heart.
