Theme for Year One— LOSS OF MEANING: JUNGIAN PERSPECTIVES
The following is a list of topics to be covered:
1) 24th of September 2016
The Archetypes behind Meaning and its Loss
Here we explore the basics of Jungian psychology and the archetypes involved in individuation. Special emphasis will be placed on the interactions among ego, shadow, animus, anima and Self.
Jody Schlatter,
Training and Supervising Jungian Analyst, ISAP Zurich.
2) 26th of November 2016
Psychotherapeutic approaches to suffering: The discovery of meaning
This lecture will discuss some of the ways in which meaning can be found in suffering, and the ways in which suffering may contribute to the individuation process. Suffering can be seen as an archetypal process of liminality and may lead to necessary radical acceptance of the demands of the Self.
Lionel Corbett,
Training and Supervising Jungian Analyst, Pacifica Graduate Institute.
3) 21st of January 2017
Psychic Disconnection and Loss of Meaning
The central theme of the lecture will be the importance of the connectionbetween consciousness and the unconscious. References and examples relating to the Shadow and dream interpretation will be explored.
André de Koning,
Training and Supervising Jungian Analyst, a member of NAAP and IAAP.
4) 4th of March 2017
Insane? The Hidden Meaning of Modern Visual Art
For C.G. Jung, a great work of art is basically the doing of an autonomous complex that suddenly emerges into consciousness and imposes its need to find full expression after pushing aside the usual ego control. This creative complex draws its psychic energy mainly out of the collective unconscious and is for this reason highly unpredictable. While the realm of the collective unconscious is beyond the grasp of psychology, its manifestations can be observed whenever we feel literally hit by a painting and gripped by a strong emotion of any kind – elation, fascination, shock, anger etc. Such an encounter that finds an immediate resonance in an obscure part of our psyche points to us a need for transformation. In a phenomenological approach, we will have close look at a few modern paintings and explore the singular dialog that takes place between art and us.
Lucienne Marguerat,
Training and Supervising Jungian Analyst, ISAP Zurich.
5) 6th of May 2017
Uncover the Hidden Messages: The Tools for Interpreting Psychic Contents.
Exploring Jung’s concept of Symbol and how it is distinct from Sign;Understanding of Association and Amplification and how it is distinct from Freud’s Free Association; Context and its use; Personal and Collective dimensions; Archetypal and Human dimensions and how all these tools can be applied to psychic contents.
Ursula Ulmer,
Training and Supervising Jungian Analyst, ISAP Zurich.
6) 15th of July 2017
Trust and Betrayal in Ourselves and in Our Relationship
Trust-and-Betrayal, as a dynamic system, is one of the most intricate building blocks of human experience and essential to all relatedness. We will attempt to weave inner and outer experiences to help delineate what is meaningful in adult relationships. As a guide, we remember Rumi wrote: “What hurts the soul? To live without tasting the water of its own essence.”

Training and Supervising Jungian Analyst, ISAP Zurich.
