“One must never look to the things that ought to change. The main question is how we change ourselves." C.G. Jung
The ideas of C.G. Jung have made an enormous contribution to depth psychology and human understanding.  His visionary concepts such as archetypes, complexes, persona, shadow, anima and animus, introvert and extravert, individuation, and the collective unconscious have had a profound influence on the way people around the world view themselves and humankind today.  In its commitment to bringing Jungian thought to the public, the New England Society of Jungian Analysts (NESJA) sponsors the NESJA Public Program, a series of evening and weekend seminars and workshops centered on various aspects of Jungian Psychology.  These seminars and workshops are open to individuals from all fields including education, the arts, religion, social work, medicine, nursing, and mental health professionals.  A separate brochure on the analyst Training Program of the C.G.

New England Society of Jungian Analysts Spring 2009 Seminars and Workshops   THE FUNDAMENTALS OF ANALYTICAL PSYCHOLOGY AND THEIR   BIOLOGICAL ROOTS :  Lecture and Workshop John Haule, Ph.D., IAAP Friday, March 13th, 2009 and Saturday March 14th, 2009 What an Archetype Is Friday, March 13, 2009  7:30pm-9:30pm Cost:  $20            2 CEUs Despite Jung’s protests to the contrary, most people still believe that an archetype is an image.  Using the human talent for language as our prime example, we shall see that an archetype is a behavior pattern that includes the capacity to recognize and imagine, but also includes emotional and motor elements rooted in our nervous system and in our body chemistry.  Primate parallels and cultural differences fill out the picture of the archetype as a “top-to-bottom” inherited pattern of behavior. From Complex to Shamanism, the Life of the Psyche Saturday, March 14, 2009, 9:30am-4:30pm Cost:  $60            5 CEUs How complexes originate, how they work, why they are hard to overcome:  all these things have mostly to do with the relationship between our cerebral cortex and our more primitive limbic system.  Individuation is the process by which a particular complex, the ego, develops a relationship with the wholeness of the psyche.  Dreaming and active imagination are means of developing this dialogue.  Shamanism reveals the natural spirituality of our human species, beginning with the evidence of artistic and religious activities during the Ice Age.  Today we can understand them in terms of the unified functioning of the human brain, as limbic system and cortex, as well as right and left hemispheres pulsate in unity.

Mary Wolff-Salin is a Jungian Analyst in private practice in Marshfield, MA.  She has taught at the C. G. Jung Institute - Boston, in Newton Highlands, and has written several books.   She is also a nun, and, in a small way, a breeder of Great Pyrenees dogs.   THE HINDU GODDESS IN HER LIGHT AND DARK ASPECTS Manisha Roy, Ph.D. IAAP Saturday, April 18, 2009            10am - 4pm Cost:  $60            5 CEUs This workshop will elaborate on the psychological implications and the healing aspects of the ritual of worshipping the goddess Durga who is also Kali. Her worshippers who are brought up with her myths remain connected to the archetype of the feminine and heal themselves. When participated  in through listening and rituals, mythology --a collection of archetypal tales about the sacred world of the deities and demons -- gives 'meaning' to our existence by connecting us to the collective unconscious.   Manisha Roy, Ph.D. IAAP, was born into a Hindu family in India and has had a living connection to the goddess Durga. As a Jungian analyst and an anthropologist she is in a unique position to speak about the psychological value of the ritual that connects with the archetypal world of the gods and goddesses with their light and dark aspects. A graduate of the C.G. Jung Institute of Zurich, Switzerland, Dr. Roy has a private practice in Cambridge, Mass. and is a member and a senior faculty of the Boston C.G. Jung Institute. She has written six books and numerous articles in both anthropology and analytical psychology and has lectured and taught in four continents. She also writes fiction.   WORKSHOP: A WRITING LIFE/ A CREATIVE LIFE Susan M. Tiberghien Sunday, May 3, 2009            10am – 4pm Cost:  $60            5 CEUs A writing life is a creative life, a life that slows down to touch each moment, a life that deepens from an inner source. In this workshop you will dip into this source to uncover your stories and to share them with words. Through free writing, you will find images that resonate in your dreams, memories and surroundings. Through active imagination, you will let the images unfold their stories--drawing them in mandalas and writing dialogues with them. And through crafting, you will shape one of the stories into a journal entry, an essay, a narrative, or a prose poem. In sharing your words, you will become a light bearer in the world around you.

Belinda Recio, M.A., has authored and edited books on subjects ranging from dream symbolism and sacred arts to nature writing.   She is currently working toward her doctorate in Environmental Studies.   Her scholarship focuses on the function of cultural and imaginal representations of nature in the conservation ethic.   ENCOUNTERING THE ENLARGED ANIMA IN THE SECOND HALF OF LIFE Will Furber, IAAP Saturday, June 13, 2009            10am – 1pm Cost:  $30            3 CEUs This workshop will explore the process by which men come to terms with a more powerful anima at mid-life.  Most men feel the super-charged pull of this evolving anima, begin to question the structures they have put in place in the first half of life, and respond in varying ways.  She leads some to act out with an uncharacteristic fling, perhaps involving a young girl friend and a red sports car.  Others may feel this risk of de-stabilization and move reflexively to restore their old persona.  More positively, some men find this newly enlarged anima a spur to individuation.  When she is met in this way, she becomes a guide through the complexity and increased depth of the second half of life.  But it is a slow and confusing process, and, as shown symbolically in the Odyssey, requires the intervention of the gods, as well as the animation of long neglected aspects of personality. Will Furber is a Jungian analyst in private practice in Topsham, Maine. Registration Form C.G. Jung Institute Summer 2009 Intensive Program INDIVIDUATION and DREAMS JUNE 25, 26, 27, 2009 C.G. Jung Institute-Boston 21 Hartford Street Newton, Massachusetts 21 Continuing Education Units will be offered The Summer Intensive Program is open to all who are interested in the Jungian approach to the psyche and is particularly suited to professionals in counseling, psychotherapy, psychiatry, nursing, social work, medicine, education, religion, education and the arts.  This program is strongly recommended for those who are considering training in Jungian analysis. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The Summer Intensive Program is designed to provide an exploration of Jungian theory and practice.  This year our program embraces Jung’s core concept of individuation as the lifelong process of becoming a whole and balanced individual.  Jungians use dream images and symbols as connecting links between the conscious ego and the unconscious psyche, thereby facilitating individuation. In this program, five Jungian analysts, all members of the faculty of the C.G. Jung Institute-Boston, will present their work, weaving together theory and practice, using the symbolic dynamism of dreams to enlighten the process of individuation.  Participants are encouraged to bring their curiosity, questions, imagination and dreams to engage in lively discussion with the presenters.

THE PROGRAM THURSDAY, JUNE 25, 2009 8:30 am – 9 am            INTRODUCTION AND ORIENTATION Randall Mishoe, D.Min., IAAP 9 am – 12:30 pm INDIVIDUATION AND DREAMS:  A GRAND OVERVIEW John Ryan Haule, Ph.D., IAAP For Jung, individuation was both a personal quest (MDR) and a therapeutic context (CW 7).  We will look at how Jung followed the individuation theme in the dreams of Wolfgang Pauli (CW 12) as they led the dreamer to a cosmic vision of harmony between his own self and objective reality as a whole.  Recent discoveries in neuropsychology reveal the physiology of the individuation process and describe the role that dreams play.  Finally, the theory of synchronicity (CW 8) describes how familiarity with the micro-codm of the self opens us up to “absolute knowledge” concerning the macro-cosm.

It is the great dream which has always spoken through the artist as mouthpiece."  In this course, we will play with the idea of the dreamer in us as Artist -- dreams as pictures-- and will look at spontaneous drawings and paintings, as dreams.     We will explore how Jungian principles of dream elaboration ('interpretation') may be fruitfully applied to pictures, and how ways of looking at art might help in understanding pictures from the unconscious in the form of dream images.   In other words, we will explore how images--inner and outer--" dream the dream on" in each other.   Time permitting, there will be an opportunity for participants to experience a simple exercise of creative expression.   Recommended reading: C.G.

FRIDAY, JUNE 26, 2009 9 am – 12:30 pm DREAMS OF A WOMAN Manisha Roy, Ph.D., IAAP This presentation will summarize and highlight relevant aspects of a five-year inner journey of a woman in analysis by discussing many of her dreams which guided her individuation.  The purpose of such a presentation is to demonstrate how an analyst uses C.G. Jung's theory and method of dream interpretation to help the dreamer to make a healing connection to her deeper self - her unconscious - which guides her individuation process. 12:30 pm – 2 pm  LUNCH 2 pm - 5:30 pm  INDIVIDUATION AND THE DREAMS OF CHILDHOOD Randall Mishoe, D.Min., IAAP In what way might one’s dreams of childhood anticipate the path of individuation? Between 1936 and 1941, C.G.Jung taught four seminars on children’s dreams. These seminars have recently been published in English by Princeton University Press (2008). In his introductory remarks, Jung makes this interesting observation, “These early dreams in particular are of utmost importance because they are dreamed out of the depth of personality and, therefore, frequently represent an anticipation of the later destiny.”  Participants in the Summer Intensive will be given an opportunity to share dreams from their childhood, if they wish, and to join in our mutual reflection upon the significance of early childhood dreams. SATURDAY, JUNE  27, 2009 9 am – 12:30 pm DREAMING ANIMALS  Penelope Tarasuk, Ph.D., IAAP “The animal is sublime and, in fact, represents the ‘divine’ side of the human psyche. You remember that the purpose of the Dionysian mysteries was to bring people back to the animal . . . to the animal within. . .”     (Jung, VS, p.161)  With permission, I will use a series of dreams with a variety of animals from a profoundly creative woman who was in analysis eight years. Here we find instruction, beauty and assistance in a life’s completion. Epiphany, the direct experience of Deity, came to this individual via dreams and in a vision of an animal. I feel the dignity and depth of Jungian psychoanalysis is illustrated and accessible in this series of dreams that are illustrated with art, photos and poetry. 12:30 pm – 2 pm LUNCH 2 pm – 5:30 pm DREAMS AND INDIVIDUATION REFLECTIONS BY PANEL AND PARTICIPANTS Ethne Gray, John Haule, Randall Mishoe, Manisha Roy, Penelope Tarasuk 5:30 pm CLOSING REMARKS Randall Mishoe, D.Min., IAAP Ann Back Price, PCNS, IAAP THE SUMMER INTENSIVE FACULTY           Ethne Gray, M.Div., IAAP is a graduate of The C.
