Looking forward to our Season 8 opener with Thomas Moore!

Thomas Moore on Soul Mates

"A soul mate is someone to whom we feel profoundly connected, as though the communicating and communing that take place between us were not the product of intentional efforts, but rather a divine grace."

The Jung Society of Utah is excited to welcome Thomas Moore on October 21st and 22nd for our spectacular Season 8 opener! 

In the Friday lecture and Saturday workshop, Moore will speak on soul mates and experiencing deep love by honoring the profound differences between unique people.

Thomas Moore published his classic Care of the Soul in 1992, followed by Soul Mates in 1994. He has written twenty books on spirituality, sexuality, myth, religion, and depth psychology. His books have been translated into thirty languages. He has taught religious studies and psychology and has been a psychotherapist for over 30 years. 

Plan ahead to join us for this soulful weekend October 21st and 22nd!

Anima, Animus, and the Magical Other 

"When animus and anima meet, the animus draws his sword of power and the anima ejects her poison of illusion and seduction. The outcome need not always be negative, since the two are equally likely to fall in love (a special instance of love at first sight)."
- C.G. Jung

Carl Jung used the term  anima to describe "the inner figure of a woman held by a man," and  animus to describe "the figure of a man at work in a woman's psyche." The anima or animus functions as a psychopomp, or "guide of soul" which mediates between the conscious and unconscious, often becoming a "necessary link with creative possibilities and instruments of individuation."

These  archetypes can profoundly influence our relationships. Individuals often choose partners based upon a resemblance to the anima or animus, or who outwardly express characteristics and feelings that lay dormant in their own psyche. This type of  projection can lead to disillusionment and heartbreak once we get to know "the  real him, the real herin extremis, the mask slipped from the face," particularly if that face turns out to be very different from the idealized archetypal image we hold.

Notes of Interest      

 



The Art of Cowry Shell Divination with Malidoma Somé 
What do you do when the revelation hits?

How can we carry our new insights to where they will produce action?

These are some of the vital questions at the heart of Robert Bosnak's new course, " Yellowing and the Stone," offered over live web broadcast in 10 sessions beginning September 16th. This is a continuation of previous courses based on James Hillman's alchemical work, but Dr. Bosnak emphasizes that it is not necessary to have completed his previous alchemy courses to benefit from this one. "Alchemy uses a language of linearity," he said, "but that's an illusion," as is any sense of sequence in Alchemical Psychology. Indeed, the illusory sequence that appears in that book is ironic, since James Hillman questioned the metanarratives of telos and goal in alchemy. "Hillman is interested in the phenomena that happen along the way as you work with the images."

Malidoma Som é spoke about gift and purpose, and how "trouble" can serve as a guide that gives us direction along our individual path. Trouble can be "what pushes us to the edge, because the edge is where the psyche expands enough to awaken to our gifts...The blessing of trouble is that it hides an opportunity for healing."
