SUMMARY:Deep River 2023-2024: Earth Magic
DESCRIPTION:SATURDAYS: OCTOBER 7\, NOVEMBER 4\, DECEMBER 2\, 2023; JANUARY 6\, FEBRUARY 3\, MARCH 2\, APRIL 6\, MAY 4\, 2024 NOON -4PM/PT\nFACULTY: NAOMI RUTH LOWINSKY\, PHD\nTUITION: $450 (SPACE IS LIMITED) \nThunder is no longer the voice of a god … No river contains a spirit\, no tree means a man’s life\, no snake is the embodiment of wisdom\, and no mountain harbors a great demon …\nC. G. Jung\, CW 18 \,¶ 585 \nEarth magic made us\, gave us Her ground to stand on\, gave us Her roots\, Her leaves\, Her fruit to eat\, gave us Her wonders to make into shelter and clothing\, poems and stories\, gave us a world full of creatures to enchant us\, teach us their medicine. When did we forget that She is our Great Mother\, that She is Grandmother Spider— Her web woven into everything we are? When did we lose our Animal souls—so attuned to Her vibrations\, to Her every scent\, touch and mood? When did we lose our Forest minds\, our Hunter–Gatherer minds\, our Farmer minds? When did the Great Split of consciousness sever Her magic from ours\, turn Her into a possession\, a slave?\n\nIn a time when Mother Earth is threatened and threatening our lives and habitats with fire\, flood\, tornadoes\, hurricanes\, earthquakes and volcanoes\, we need Her poets to remind us who we are and where we come from—Earthlings made of Her red clay. To worship our Earth as a Goddess\, to know Her as a living being\, is to return to the wisdom of our ancestors who knew\, along with Jung\, that the Earth has a soul. Reading the poets of Earth Magic\, writing under their influence\, offers us a way back to the “Unus Mundus”—the One World— and weaves our souls and our writings into the tapestry of all creation. The poets we will read are Aimée Nezhukumatathil\, Ross Gay\, and Lucille Lang Day\n\nNaomi Ruth Lowinsky\, PHD is an analyst member of the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco and a widely published and anthologized poet. She is the winner of The Blue Light Poetry Prize and the Obama Millennial Prize. Her fifth poetry collection Death and His Lorca\, was recently published.

SUMMARY:THERE AND BACK AGAIN: INTO THE STARRY NIGHT II
DESCRIPTION:A call to adventure! A return to in-depth exploration of C. G. Jung’s ideas in The Red Book \nIn our current climate of information saturation\, cynicism\, and incendiary politics\, The Red Book stands out as an unapologetic call to meaning\, interiority\, and the development of the inner person. Jung’s personal encounter with chaos and madness\, through a journey into the imaginal\, was the lifeblood of his conceptual framework\, one that he further refined in the Collected Works. Sonu Shamdasani\, editor of The Red Book has referred to this work as an “underground stream\,” in relation to the collected volumes. QiRe Ching will read aloud selected passages\, following The Red Book’s narrative\, while pausing frequently to facilitate discussion. The class will explore and unpack what Jung is saying. Participants will be encouraged to sink into their full range of feelings and associations as their psyches are activated by the material. Many people have found The Red Book difficult to follow on their own. The intention of this class is to provide participants with meaningful signposts that will excite them to return repeatedly to this work for inspiration. \n  \nQIRE CHING\, LCSW is a member analyst of the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco. He teaches in the candidate training program and is in private practice.

SUMMARY:STONES\, SOUL\, AND LABYRINTH
DESCRIPTION:SATURDAY\, FEBRUARY 17\, 2024\n1 – 4PM/PT\nFACULTY: STEVE PARKER\, PHD\n3 Possible Continuing Education Credits Approved for MD\, PhD\, PsyD\, MFT\, LCSW\, LPCC\, LEP & RN\nTUITION: $90 (INCLUDES CEUs)\n\nA journey of finding soul through art and stonework after severe trauma\, culminating in the creation of a large spiral labyrinth that descends into the earth. \n\nThis image-rich presentation will weave the story of the long recovery from a severe heart attack with 20 years of art\, stonework\, dreams\, and Jungian commentary. The work will be related to alchemical processes\, and the symbolism of stones\, spirals and labyrinths. “The Stone Sanctuary” contains numerous features\, including driftwood and stone walls\, large stone eggs\, waterfalls\, and rock gardens. For the last three years\, Steve Parker has been working on a large stone spiral labyrinth that descends slowly into the earth. This labyrinth\, and the other structures in the Stone Sanctuary\, emerged spontaneously from the unconscious. The work is a tribute to hidden forces that drive us towards individuation and healing\, and can be an example for how to guide patients through a similar journey in the clinical setting.\n\n\n\n\nSTEVE PARKER\, PHD. has been working in Alaska for 40 years as a Jungian psychologist. After a heart attack\, Parker created a series of paintings that became the basis for art shows and a book — Heart Attack and Soul. Over the last 20 years he has built a Stone Sanctuary\, a place of healing for the community. Dr. Parker’s work was been featured in the journal Psychological Perspectives.

SUMMARY:WORKING WITH DREAMS: PRELIMINARY IDEAS FOR A NEW SYNTHESIS
DESCRIPTION:SATURDAY\, FEBRUARY 3 & 10\, 2024\n1—4PM/PT\nFACULTY: STEVE ELIEZER ZEMMELMAN\, MSW\, PHD\n6 Possible Continuing Education Credits Approved for MD\, PhD\, PsyD\, MFT\, LCSW\, LPCC\, LEP & RN\nTUITION: $180 (INCLUDES CEUs)\n\nHow do you work with dreams in clinical practice? Does it differ from one dream to the next\, or from one patient to another? Does the dream change in either the telling or in the hearing? This two-session seminar is offered to clinicians to deepen their approach to working with dreams. The organizing thread for the series is the presenter’s approach to dream work comprised of an amalgam of analytical psychology\, relational psychoanalysis\, and hermeneutic phenomenology: a way of being in relation to dreams that follows images and emotion while recognizing that the meanings embedded within dreams are paradoxically both created and discovered in dialogue between the dreamer and psychotherapist. Central to this approach is the dynamism of the ego-self axis\, the fulcrum around which dream meanings can be pursued. We will consider the history of working with dreams in ancient Greek\, Jewish and Native American sources\, explore the structure of Sigmund Freud’s work with dreams\, review C. G. Jung’s theories related to understanding the dream\, and include an overview of a contemporary understanding of dreams.\n\n\nSTEVE ELIEZER ZEMMELMAN\, MSW\, PHD\, is a Jungian psychoanalyst and teacher in private practice in Berkeley and San Francisco\, Calif. He led a two-year seminar on Jungian dream analysis\, has taught various other topics in analytical psychology at the Institute and beyond\, and has published on subjects including the analytic relationship\, Erich Neumann\, Jung and Judaism\, and the Coen Brothers.

SUMMARY:ACAUSAL CONNECTIONS IN ANALYTICAL PSYCHOLOGY AND MODERN PHYSICS: QUANTUM ENTANGLEMENT AND SYNCHRONICITY
DESCRIPTION:FACULTY: PETER HOLLAND\, MD\n3 Possible Continuing Education Credits Approved for MD\, PhD\, PsyD\, MFT\, LCSW\, LPCC\, LEP & RN\nTUITION: $90 (INCLUDES CEUs)\nAT THE INSTITUTE AND LIVESTREAM\n\n\n\nLet’s explore the fascinating overlap between contemporary physics and one of Jung’s most significant ideas\, probing riddles as diverse as the fate of Schrödinger’s cat\, whether there are hidden variables\, and the nature of the collective unconscious.\n\nIn the opening paragraph of his 1952 essay on synchronicity\, Jung writes that modern physics has shattered our worldview\, replacing causal certainty by statistical truths. There is a need to posit other types of connection that are not part of the system of natural laws\, to explain what we see around us. Jung proposed synchronicity as a principle of connection arising from psyche’s search for meaning. There are parallels to this psychological hypothesis in quantum physics. For a century\, physicists have wrestled with the question of what makes the reality we perceive\, given that quantum descriptions are indefinite. Spatially separated events may be correlated\, without the possibility of causation. It turns out that at a microscopic level\, objects are not separate but inextricably entwined\, part of a Unus Mundus.\n\n\nPETER HOLLAND\, MD is a psychiatrist in private practice in Aptos and an analyst member of the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco. He has given presentations on topics to do with the overlap of analysis\, culture\, and the history of science and mathematics. Before entering his present profession he was a graduate student in theoretical physics\, and has an ongoing interest is making connections between quantum mechanics and Jungian psychology.

SUMMARY:THERE AND BACK AGAIN: INTO THE STARRY NIGHT II
DESCRIPTION:A call to adventure! A return to in-depth exploration of C. G. Jung’s ideas in The Red Book \nIn our current climate of information saturation\, cynicism\, and incendiary politics\, The Red Book stands out as an unapologetic call to meaning\, interiority\, and the development of the inner person. Jung’s personal encounter with chaos and madness\, through a journey into the imaginal\, was the lifeblood of his conceptual framework\, one that he further refined in the Collected Works. Sonu Shamdasani\, editor of The Red Book has referred to this work as an “underground stream\,” in relation to the collected volumes. QiRe Ching will read aloud selected passages\, following The Red Book’s narrative\, while pausing frequently to facilitate discussion. The class will explore and unpack what Jung is saying.

SUMMARY:THE WAY OF THE WISE ELDER IN FILM
DESCRIPTION:THE WAY OF THE WISE ELDER IN FILM\nSATURDAY\, NOVEMBER II\, 2023\nI -4PM/PT\nFACULTY: TERRY EBINGER\, MS\nTUITION: $90 \nAT THE INSTITUTE \nUsing the mythic power of cinema to explore authentic elderhood through a depth psychological lens. The most compelling films about wise elderhood serve as journeys into mythic territory – offering daunting trials\, vital awakenings\, necessary sacrifices\, and healing transformations. Movies bring the archetypes to life\, gracing us with unique characters embodying essentials of\nauthentic elderhood: generativity\, integrity\, reflection\, reconciliation\, connection. Depth psychology and mythic imagination will guide our expansive consideration of remarkable cinematic elders\, observing and amplifying the values\, attitudes\, and tasks of later life individuation. This seminar will include multimedia lecture\, group discussion\, analysis of multiple film clips and images\, and practice uncovering metaphor and meaning via cinema’s fundamental language of dream. \n  \nTERRY EBINGER\, MS\, is a passionate film scholar with over three decades of experience as a depth psychology practitioner and educator\, dream consultant\, spiritual director\, and multidisciplinary group leader. Terry’s classes approach film art through myth\, archetypal psychology\, cultural history\, and the language of dream. She teaches at extended education programs and lifelong learning institutes around the Bay Area.

SUMMARY:Destiny in Memoir
DESCRIPTION:As one looks back one sees a pattern unfolding\, much like the plot of a novel\, in which events that seemed entirely unintended turn out to have been central to the composition. Who composed the plot? C. G. Jung calls this guidance system the archetype of the Self\, which is one’s full potentiality\, present at birth and guiding one to adulthood and beyond. \nThis presentation consists of two parts: a theoretical portion exploring the theme of destiny in the work of mythologist Joseph Campbell and in the life and work of Jung and his theory of the process of individuation — and My Father’s Hand\, a memoir of growing up in poverty in the Philippines. These will be followed by a discussion to explore the mythological and depth psychological approaches to memoir composition to find the inner story of a life. \n  \nGRACE HOGSTAD\, PHD\, received her Doctor of Philosophy in Mythological Studies with Emphasis in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute and holds a Master of Arts degree in English\, Creative Writing\, from California State University\, Northridge. She is certified by the C.G. Jung Institute of L.A.\, Certificate Program in Jungian Studies. Prior to her doctoral work\, Hogstad operated her own real estate brokerage.

SUMMARY:THE INNER WORK OF AGE: SHIFTING FROM ROLE TO SOUL
DESCRIPTION:“Whoever carries over into the afternoon of life the law of the morning must pay for it with damage to the soul.” (Jung 1931\, CW 8\, ¶787) \n  \nThis webinar\, for people 50+\, teaches us how to shift our identity from midlife Hero to wise Elder\, or from role (what we do) to soul (who we truly are). This workshop can help you discover how to shift your identity from doing\, achievement\, and image\, to your spiritual essence\, who you really are-from role to soul. It teaches how to move through late life as a rite of passage\, releasing past forms\, facing the unknown\, and emerging renewed as an Elder. We explore the internal\, unfamiliar terrain of soul-the subtle yearnings that appear in images and fantasies\, the ways we respond or fear to respond to those messengers\, and the symbolic meanings we glean from them. You can deepen your self-knowledge and eventually shift from denial to awareness\, self-rejection to self-acceptance\, obligation to flow\, and distraction to presence. This is the deeper dimension of age\, the universal journey of individuation\, even the unfolding of advanced stages of human development\, which are described in every spiritual tradition as the purpose of late life. \n  \nCONNIE ZWEIG\, PHD\, a retired Jungian-oriented therapist\, is co-author of Meeting the Shadow and Romancing the Shadow. Her book\, The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul\, extends her work on the unconscious for people 50+. It won the 2022 Gold Nautilus award\, the 2021 American Book Fest Award\, and the 2021 Best lndie Book Award for best inspirational non-fiction. Her new book: Meeting the Shadow on the Spiritual Path: The Dance of Darkness and Light in Our Search for Awakening\, is available now.

SUMMARY:WHAT THE C.G. JUNG INSTITUTE OF SAN FRANCISCO  CAN OFFER PSYCHIATRISTS
DESCRIPTION:When is the last time someone told you that listening to a dream can help a patient in the midst of a suicidal crisis or a schizophrenic decompensation? \n\nC. G. Jung developed his key concepts in the course of his training and early work\, first in institutional and then private-practice psychiatry\, yet psychiatrists today often don’t realize how much they can still learn from Jung’s version of medical psychology. This “taster” program will feature psychiatrists who had Jungian supervision and analysis as early as their residency years. They will explain how that impacted the evolution of their professional practices. Excerpts from a filmed set of interviews with Jung himself will illuminate how he thought about psychiatric patients and how depth psychological understanding can help them.\n\n\nJAMESJONGHUN BAE\, MD\, is an ana]yst member of the C.G.Jung Institute of San Francisco. He is in private practice in San Mateo\, Calif.\, is a clinical assistant professor of psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine\, and is a staff psychiatrist at the Counseling and Psychological Services at Vaden Health Center of Stanford University.\n\nJOHN BEEBE\, MD\, (Moderator) is a past president of the C.G.Jung Institute of San Francisco\, founding editor of its journal\, and a faculty member in its Analytic Training Program.

SUMMARY:THERE AND BACK AGAIN: INTO THE STARRY NIGHT II
DESCRIPTION:A call to adventure! A return to in-depth exploration of C. G. Jung’s ideas in The Red Book \nIn our current climate of information saturation\, cynicism\, and incendiary politics\, The Red Book stands out as an unapologetic call to meaning\, interiority\, and the development of the inner person. Jung’s personal encounter with chaos and madness\, through a journey into the imaginal\, was the lifeblood of his conceptual framework\, one that he further refined in the Collected Works. Sonu Shamdasani\, editor of The Red Book has referred to this work as an “underground stream\,” in relation to the collected volumes. QiRe Ching will read aloud selected passages\, following The Red Book’s narrative\, while pausing frequently to facilitate discussion. The class will explore and unpack what Jung is saying. Participants will be encouraged to sink into their full range of feelings and associations as their psyches are activated by the material. Many people have found The Red Book difficult to follow on their own. The intention of this class is to provide participants with meaningful signposts that will excite them to return repeatedly to this work for inspiration. \n  \nQIRE CHING\, LCSW is a member analyst of the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco. He teaches in the candidate training program and is in private practice.

SUMMARY:OEDIPUS AND THE RED PILL: INITIATION AND EVOLUTION
DESCRIPTION:OEDIPUS AND THE RED PILL:\nINITIATION AND EVOLUTION \n\nSATURDAY\, MAY 20\, 2023\n10AM – 4PM\nFACULTY: FRANCES HATFIELD\, PhD\, MFT\n5 Possible Continuing Education Credits Approved for MD\, PhD\, PsyD\, MFT\, LCSW\,\nLPCC\, LEP & RN\nTUITION: $125 (INCLUDES CEUS) \n\nAn evolutionary path through our current planetary crisis is explored\nthrough the myth of Oedipus\, ancient Orphic origin stories\, and\nC. G. Jung’s The Red Book. \n\n\n\nThe choice to “take the red pill\,” has entered popular culture as a\nmetaphor for the choice to wake up to the constructed nature of our\nexperience and the bitter truth it hides. Ironically\, alt-right theorists\nand more recently\, Elon Musk\, urge us to take the red pill. In this\nseminar\, we will trace this theme back to the myth of King Oedipus\,\nwho chose to learn the hard truth about his ancestry to discover\nthe cause of a plague decimating his people. In Sophocles’ telling\,\nOedipus then suffers a kind of initiation\, ultimately emerging as a\nprophet with the power to bless the earth.\nIn analytical psychology\, the decision to unmask the delusions of\nego\, or of the dominant culture\, to reveal the truth of who we really\nare and reckon with what we have done to one another and our planet\,\nis the portal to wholeness\, key to our evolution as a species\, and our\npath into a new age\, Jung’s “Age of the Holy Spirit.”\n\n\nFRANCES HATFIELD\, PhD\, LMFT\, is the poetry editor of Jung Journal:\nCulture and Psyche\, and a senior analyst in private practice in\nSanta Fe\, New Mexico\, and California. She teaches in the training\nprograms at the Jung Institute of Santa Fe and the C.G. Jung Institute of\nSan Francisco. She is currently writing a book on the archetype of Dionysos.

SUMMARY:DREAMDANCING: EXPLORING THE OPPOSITES
DESCRIPTION:“ One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light\, but by making the darkness conscious.” — C. G. Jung \n\nIn these challenging\, polarizing times we are called to draw from creative\, healing energies from deeper parts of the Self. Dreams\, imagination\, and embodied knowing offer profound resources —\npersonally\, culturally\, and from the timeless collective unconscious that connects us to one another\, to all of life\, and to the creative intelligence that informs us all. Transformation is an embodied\, cellular process involving reclaiming rejected parts of the self necessary for wholeness. Re-integrating shadow material projected onto others is essential to the work: What could emerge if we reclaim this “other?” \nAuthentic Movement\, or embodied active imagination\, is a simple yet powerful meditative and therapeutic approach that bridges body and psyche through expressive movement\, inviting descent\ninto the body and psyche within a safe environment. Exploring body-level responses provides a bridge to the unconscious. Through presentation\, natural movement\, and sharing we will rediscover\nthe light in the darkness. Please bring a dream figure — or your sense of a person in your life\, past or present — who inspires you! \nTINA STROMSTED\, PhD\, MFT\, LPCC\, BC-DMT\, RSME/T\, Jungian analyst\, Dance/Movement therapist\, Somatics educator\, & author is the founder of Soul’s Body Center® and past co-founder of the Authentic Movement Institute. She teaches at the C.G. Jung Institute in San Francisco\, Jung Platform\, Friends of Jung organizations\, the Marion Woodman Foundation and university and healing centers internationally.
