Seminar #1, Fall 2018: The Master Archetype: Integrating the Opposites in Life, Thought and Psychotherapy 12 Wednesdays: 7:00 - 8:30 pm Instructor: Sanford L. Drob, PhD It can be said that the interdependence and union of opposites is the basis of Jung's psychology, the key to the practice of psychotherapy, and the "master archetype," or most general principle, of both life and thought. In this workshop we will trace the history of this archetype in mysticism, alchemy, philosophy, and psychology and explore Jung's thinking on coincidentia oppositorum from The Red Book to Mysterium Coniunctionis. Jung's understanding of this archetype will be considered against the background of his study of alchemy and will be contextualized in relation to the history of both eastern and western spirituality and thought, including Taoism, Hinduism, the Kabbalah, Christian mysticism, Hegel Nietzsche, Freud, and Derrida. |

The Shadow
5 consecutive Mondays, 6:00–7:40 pm
Instructor Gary Brown, LCSW, LP
Shadow is everywhere, yet, as we will see in Jung's model, it is often buried in our studies, given less attention than it deserves, its importance and its archetypal depth overlooked. Shadow's location in the Jungian model will be explored until we reach the depths where we find its connection to the Self. |

Trauma and Dissociated States: A Jungian Perspective
5 consecutive Tuesdays, 7:00–8:40 pm
Instructor Harry Fogarty, PhD
From a Jungian perspective, dissociation is what we are not aware of on a conscious level that is retained by our bodies in a preverbal sense. Specific links between trauma and somatic states, "embodiment," will be explored. In particular we will consider shifts in therapeutic approaches as suggested by Schore, Wilkinson, Levine, and Kalsched.

Painting the Psyche: Wonders of the Dream World
5 consecutive Thursdays, 6:30–8:10 pm
Instructor Maria Taveras, LCSW
This workshop on "Painting the Psyche" will be an opportunity to experience and explore archetypal images that emerge from what Jung calls the creative imagination. We will delve into the depths of the psyche to render in paint a visual of the dream image and to amplify what the dream world so wondrously reflects to us. |

Passion: What Can We Learn About It from Jung?
5 consecutive Mondays, 7:00–8:40 pm
Instructor David Rottman, MA
Jung has much to say about how we can create a new channel for passion in work and relationships, in order to be creatively engaged and involved in our lives. In this course we will explore Jung's ideas about passion as well as the ideas of his main pupil, Marie-Louise Von Franz. |

The Self: Experience, Conceptualization and Buddhist Practice
5 consecutive Tuesdays, 6:00–7:40 pm
Instructor Suzanne Ironbiter, PhD
One of the most challenging aspects of Buddha's teaching is the doctrine that no self has inherent reality or independent existence. Buddhist meditation practices, studies and ethics are the path to that insight. We will explore the Buddhist no-self teachings and practices, and solicit discussion of how they relate to people's non-Buddhist views of self, and particularly to the Jungian archetype of the self as a universal symbol of wholeness. |

An Archetypal View of Jung's Typology through the Lens of Astrological Symbolism
5 consecutive Tuesdays, 7:00–8:40 pm
Instructor Cynthia Poorbaugh, MFA, LP
This course will focus on Jung's theory of typology in the context of his early astrological knowledge, and the archetypal roots of the four functions of sensation, feeling, intuition and thinking, dating back to ancient Greece—principally the four elements, fundamental to astrology and alchemy: earth, water, fire and air.

The Firebird: Exploring Depression as Transformational GroundTuesday, October 2, 2018: 12:30 – 1:30 pm A First Tuesday Lunch Forum presented by Juliet Bruce, PhD.
Traditional cultures understood depression and other non-ordinary mental experiences as states of emergence rather than as disorders. "The Firebird," with its vibrant metaphors of evil, despair, and the healing imagination, has inspired ballets, paintings, and music, and stirred countless dead souls into awakening. The heroic journey of its young protagonist through a dark and dangerous forest, guided by a glowing bird, provides a roadmap for reframing despair into an inner life-affirming quest for authentic wholeness.

The Divine Mind: The Psychological History of God's Inner JourneySaturday, October 27, 2018: A day-long workshop led by Michael Gellert, MA, LCSW Contact hours: 6 CE contact hours for Licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists for this program. We will first focus on the Abrahamic God's evolution as depicted in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. We will then explore the profound disappointments and suffering that the biblical God encountered on his inner journey toward greater consciousness. We will see how these contributed toward his trauma and other existential and clinical afflictions as illustrated in the Hebrew Bible. We will also discuss what it means historically and for us today that the God of Western and Islamic civilization suffered from these conditions. Special attention will be given to what Jung, among others, has called the "Yahweh complex." Our approach to God will be as a figure of the religious imagination rather than as a representation of an objective Godhead. |
