Lectures

"Psychedelics and the Opening of the Known and Unknown". The experience of profound darkness and numinosity requires both a descent and decentering, a going under that results in a defeat for the ego and a revisioning of the Self.

Who is it that finds that hidden place in our heart and soul that we have all but given up on? Yet somehow, despite our attempts to silence this un-sated hunger, “she” has never left our side, or given up the hope of bringing new life into our weary soul.

Join Alan G. Vaughan, Ph.D., JD during this lecture on Egyptian gods and goddesses and their archetypal energies.

Join us for an evening of emotive and meditative music, as Daniel Chambo leads us on a journey of sound designed to deepen our connection to the vibrant, inner world of feeling we all contain.

Erica Lorentz helps us to grasp Jung’s understanding of the creative healing capacities of the unconscious through the imaginal realm.

Complexes are the building blocks of the DNA of our Psyche. They help us harvest the gifts of the archetypes that form the nucleus of the complexes.

As we aim to know ourselves more deeply, many obstacles stand in our way, such as the magnitude of the project, the readiness to avoid hard work, and gnawing self-doubt, but we also have tools to strengthen consciousness to take these obstacles on.

Dr. Buser will take us through a history of the project, an overview of von Franz’s life and work, as well as a deep dive into the first 2 volumes of this foundational material.

The Heroine’s Journey is essential for men and women to become whole. Jung illustrates it as we read the Red Book. Gandhi and Martin Luther King followed it. Countless unsung heroines have changed the world. The hero’s journey was popularized by Joseph Campbell, the famous mythologist.
