| The Jung Society of Washington, dedicated to the experience of the Self, serves the "still small voice" of human longing (sometimes called "holy longing") that comes to us in our dreams and in moments of silence, contemplation, creativity, and imagination. Our programs support the exploration of our own psychic depths and the "heroic struggle" for personality integration and wholeness that Dr. Carl Gustav Jung called "individuation." We offer lectures, courses, workshops, evenings with distinguished analysts, that help guide our unique inner venture. Read about our Programs here. |

It feels more important than ever to become fully aware of ourselves and the world around us. Thank you for exploring with us! We have had a nurturing Spring and look forward to more in the Fall. To tide you over until then, we have a wonderful course, "Sophia As Muse," by Dr. Hollis, being offered through June. Also, please check out our Library and look below for a list of curated books on Jung for summer reading! With our best wishes to you for a lovely summer, the Jung Society of Washington |
The New Jungian Studies Reading Seminar:
Classics in Jungian Literature
The Jungian Studies Reading Seminar has concluded its initial two year study of the Collected Works of C. G. Jung and awarded certificates to its participants. While some of the prior members will be continuing, the Jung Society is opening up participation to new members for a new two year program reading classics of Jungian literature. The coming Fall/Spring semesters, Jungian analysts will be teaching celebrated works by Erich Neumann on the new ethic, James Hillman, Marie-Louise von Franz, Emma Jung, Edward Edinger, and Marian Woodman. Participation is open to anyone, regardless of background, who wishes to learn the theory and practice of depth psychology from some of its great teachers.
The seminar meets one Saturday per month from 9 to 4:30 during the months September through December and February through May. The participant is obliged only to read the texts and come prepared for discussion conducted by the analyst. The cost of the seminar is $800 per semester, and $1600 for the entire year. At the end of the two year cycle, a certificate of completion will be conferred. A limited number of scholarships are also available.
Anyone interested in applying should direct their questions or applications to James Hollis at Archaeon@AOL.com, or by mail to the Jung Society, 5200 Cathedral, Ave., N. W. Washington, D. C. 20016.

The conference will be held at the Key Bridge Marriott, Thursday evening June 22 – Sunday evening, June 25, 2017. We are pleased to announce that the keynote speaker will be Joe Cambray, Ph.D. In recent years, major advances in the development of complexity and dynamical systems theory have provided new perspectives for understanding Jung’s model of psyche. The papers in this conference will address perspectives of complexity in systems ranging from clinical practice and social action to visual art, film, dance, and literature. A major theme of the conference, “Myth in Our Time,” will explore complexity, creativity, and action in the context of the contemporary state of the political system.
Details are available through the JSSS website:www.jungiansociety.org. Four Tuesdays in June: A COURSE BY JAMES HOLLIS: SOPHIA AS MUSE: Four Philosophical Questions Addressed by Poets The purpose of art is art, not to produce argument or analysis. Nonetheless, poets who are humans first also wonder about the large questions of life. This course will address four philosophical questions and illustrate some responses poets have embodied in their work. The questions are: why are we here; what is our obligation to the natural order, does the universe make sense and how are we to best conduct our lives? Register here! |
