Having a bad year?
Feel like you’ve been targeted by the gods for their sport and pleasure?
Want to climb under your bed and hide so they won’t find you?

Don’t bother! They [the archetypes] are everywhere and they are having the time of their lives. Archetypes can be like that. And, down deep, you know that if you honor them, they can teach you to have the time of your life as well.

Perhaps the most important contribution of Jungian psychology to popular culture is the concept of the archetype. Yet there is widespread misunderstanding of what precisely this term encompasses. Archetypes, known primarily through their culturally-constructed images and mythologies, point to a vaster arena from which all of experience is built: the archetypal ground. Join these two experienced analysts as they define archetypes, discuss mythic archetypal images and explore the phenomenon of the archetypal ground. Learn about the collective unconscious and its perpetual influence on our lives and culture.
