Life offers moments of what Rudolf Otto called the "numinous," extraordinary encounters with the Holy Other, invoking in one the senses of awe and dread, fascination and calling. Such moments typically draw us to find new meaning in life. How we process them can greatly affect how we live life forward. Twelve-step programs' reliance upon a Higher Power is but one indication of the significance of the numinous in healing.

We will examine three kinds of numinous experiences that are inner in nature: big dreams (of great importance individually or collectively), visions (as if dreaming while awake), and active imagination (C. G. Jung's method of engaging the unconscious in order to learn from it). We will consider them in the lives of historical figures, such as Jung, Hildegard von Bingen, and Black Elk, and in our own lives and the lives of others whom we have known.

Chris Beach, Jungian analyst and registered counselor, has a private practice in Portland, Maine. He works with individuals, facilitates dream groups, and teaches courses on dream interpretation, psychological type, Jungian psychology, active imagination and ethics. Formerly, Chris served as a teacher and headmaster in Kenya and as an assistant attorney general representing Maine's Department of Human Services.

Tangled in “Nots” – Working with Complexes Using Active Imagination

Friday Lecture:  April 24, 2015 7:00 to 9:30 pm (Refreshments at 7:00pm; Lecture at 7:30 pm)   $10 members & non-members   $5  students with ID

Saturday Workshop: April 25, 2015 10:00 am 4:00pm  $30 members/ $48 non members  $15 students with ID

Location:  Olin T. Binkley Memorial Baptist Church, 1712 Willow Drive, Chapel Hill, NC

Tangled in “Nots” – Working with Complexes Using Active Imagination
Complexes are core structures of the psyche and are one of the most basic ways in which we encounter the archetypes.  When we’re stuck in a complex  –  i.e. the complex “has us”  –   we are possessed by the complex.  Rather than manifesting our true self, we manifest some aspect of our false self (the not-me). This capacity of complexes to bind psychic energy tangles us in knots which are “not-y,” not because they are especially naughty but because they are merely knotty and difficult to un-not on one’s own.  Yet growth often lies precisely in consciously encountering this “not-me”:  a knotty situation indeed!
The workshop will use Disney’s Tangled to illustrate typical complexes as well as the power of the complex to hinder connecting more fully to our true self.  Jung’s theory of complexes will be discussed.  Through active imagination, participants will learn to use the kinesthetic component (the feeling tone) of a complex to identify and bring into consciousness both the contemporaneous and historical material associated with a complex of their own choosing.  (Please be kind enough to bring one with you to the workshop.)  
Robert Sheavly is a Jungian Analyst in Washington, DC and is the director of the Central Washington Psychotherapy Associates and on the faculty of the Philadelphia Jung Institute.  Bob also serves as treasurer of the Jungian Analysts of Washington Association (JAWA) and the Philadelphia Association of Jungian Analysts (PAJA). He is a former church organist, an avid choral singer performing regularly with the National Symphony Orchestra and the author of Ensouling AIDS:  The Archetypal Dimension of the LGBT Choral Movement.

Jung Society Movie & Discussion Night

Join us for February Jung Society Movie & Discussion Night

Lost in Translation poster.jpg
 LOST IN TRANSLATION

Sofia Coppola's 2003 comedy, Lost in Translation, is about cultural dislocation and relational longing. Starring Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson, it depicts two unmoored Americans, strangers in a strange land, who happen to be staying in the same Tokyo hotel at the same time, and who, despite their very different situations, attempt to see what sort of connection is possible.  A very, very funny film, it is, in a larger sense, an exploration of that primary human need to feel that one has a home in one's relationships. 
Location:  Lee and Terry Lawrence’s home Kinsale Drive, Chapel Hill, NC 27517. For directions, call 919 604-0427.
