Foundation Modules

The Foundation Modules

Certificate Course in Applied Jungian Psychology

This is the 10th year anniversary of this lecture series launched in 2013. This completely revised and updated series, running over the 2023 -2024 calendar years, will introduce the student to the theory and applications of Applied Jungian Psychology.

Applied Jungian Psychology is an interpretation of classical and post-Jungian psychology, depth-psychology, and the practice of applying these bodies of thinking as a form of psychoeducation outside of clinical practice or academia. This is done with a focus on the promotion of consciousness, meaning and individuation in the student.

The Applied Jung Foundation Modules are taught by our Head of Learning Stephen Anthony Farah MA.

About

There are twenty modules in the complete series, presented over two years, each one focusing on a specific key concept from Applied Jungian psychology. Students can attend any module in the series or sign-up to do the complete series for the Certificate Course.

The workshops are designed with both the complete beginner and the more advanced student in mind, to be thought provoking and offer some insight into their application in the life and psyche of the student.

The workshops are two and a half hours long and include a formal presentation on the topic, Q&A, and interactive exercises (applications) to work with and assimilate the concept.

Date and time: the modules are presented once a month, on the third Saturday of the month. The sessions start at UTC 14h00 (2 pm London/9 am New York).

Module Duration: each module is two and half hours long.

Location: Online via Zoom. (You will be sent the Zoom link upon registration.) 

All presentations are recorded for later viewing and for those unable to attend live.

The Inferior Function in Jungian Typology

Date and Time: Saturday 25th, 2024 at 2 pm London/9 am New York.

“In a similar way, we are afraid of our inferior functions. If you take a typical intellectual who is terribly afraid of falling in love, you will think his fear very foolish. But he is most probably right, because he will very likely make foolish nonsense when he falls in love. He will be caught most certainly, because his feeling only reacts to an archaic or to a dangerous type of woman.” (CW 18, par 35)

The Self and the Second Personality

Date and Time: Saturday 15th, 2024 at 2 pm London/9 am New York.

“Once, while I was in my laboratory and reflecting again upon these questions, the devil whispered to me that I would be justified in publishing the results of my experiments and my conclusions without mentioning Freud. After all, I had worked out my experiments long before I understood his work. But then I heard the voice of my second personality: “If you do a thing like that, as if you had no knowledge of Freud, it would be a piece of trickery. You cannot build your life upon a lie.” With that, the question was settled.” (C.G. Jung; Memories, dreams, reflections; pg. 148)

Paradox and the Transcendent Function

Date and Time: Saturday 20th, 2024 at 2 pm London/9 am New York.

“The cooperation of conscious reasoning with the data of the unconscious is called the “transcendent function” (cf. Psychological Types, par. 828).20 This function progressively unites the opposites. Psychotherapy makes use of it to heal neurotic dissociations, but this function had already served as the basis of Hermetic philosophy for seventeen centuries. Besides this, it is a natural and spontaneous phenomenon, part of the process of individuation. Psychology has no proof that this process does not unfold itself at the instigation of God’s will.” (CW 18, par 1554)

The Rosarium Philosophorum

Date and Time: Saturday 17th, 2024 at 2 pm London/9 am New York

“I had very soon seen that analytical psychology coincided in a most curious way with alchemy. The experiences of the al- chemists were, in a sense, my experiences, and their world was my world. This was, of course, a momentous discovery: I had stumbled upon the historical counterpart of my psychology of the unconscious. The possibility of a comparison with alchemy, and the uninterrupted intellectual chain back to Gnosticism, gave substance to my psychology.” (C.G. Jung; Memories, dreams, reflections; pg. 205)

Individuation

Date and Time: Saturday 21st, 2024 at 2 pm London/9 am New York.

“There is a destination, a possible goal, beyond the alternative stages dealt with in our last chapter. That is the way of individuation. Individuation means becoming an “individual,” and, in so far as “individuality” embraces our innermost, last, and incomparable uniqueness, it also implies becoming one’s own self. We could therefore translate individuation as “coming to selfhood” or “self-realization. (CW Vol 7, par 266)

Synchronicity and the Mysterium Coniunctionis

Date and Time: Saturday 19th, 2024 at 2 pm London/9 am New York.

“In Mysterium Coniunctionis my psychology was at last given its place in reality and established upon its historical foundations. Thus my task was finished, my work done, and now it can stand. The moment I touched bottom, I reached the bounds of scientific understanding, the transcendental, the nature of the arche- type per se, concerning which no further scientific statements can be made.” (C.G. Jung; Memories, dreams, reflections; pg. 221)

Personal Myth

Date and Time: Saturday 16th, 2024 at 2 pm London/9 am New York.

“Thus it is that I have now undertaken, in my eighty-third year, to tell my personal myth, I can only make direct state- ments, only “tell stories/’ Whether or not the stories are “true” is not the problem. The only question is whether what I tell is my fable, my truth.” (C.G. Jung; Memories, dreams, reflections; pg. 3)
