Carl Gustav Jung coined the terms “Anima and Animus” a century ago, in the early 1920’s. To date much has been written, discussed, and debated about these two concepts. Those interested in Jungian psychology know that integrating the Anima and Animus (the syzygy) or The Sacred Marriage, is an essential aspect of the Jungian individuation journey. But what does this actually mean? This course explores the concepts of the Anima and Animus in depth, as they are conceptually difficult to grasp and challenging to understand. One of the main reasons for this confusion is that the Anima and Animus are both Complex and Archetype. This course offers a phenomenological and experiential approach, which is a profound and effective way to not only grasp but integrate Jungian theory.

Wow! What a wild ride….- I write this final summary with a grateful heart, knowing I gave my all to this course, despite wanting to give up countless times… many tears, wild emotions, freed up energy, all swirled in moments of joy…epiphanies… I am trying to account for a period in time where I’ve ventured deeper within, and I am hard pressed to find one. My world (and life trajectory) has changed because of my work in this course in ways I have yet to become fully conscious; I’ve recently had some mind blowing synchronistic events. In general, I have only begun (what will be) a magical lifelong journey of self-discovery/actualization. I’ve found a fire inside for this work and am looking forward to see where it leads me next… I want to thank you all for allowing me to be fully open and vulnerable; I felt safe and understood at all times, which enabled me to “break open” as I pursued Self. It’s also been an absolute honor to witness each of you on your respective journeys… endless beauty in that all…- So thank you from my heart! .. and a special thank you to Anja for all your expertise and kindness; it’s helped me greatly.

I have enjoyed this program so much, personally, it has had its challenges which have also been instructional and initiated a deeper reflection and inquiry.
The timing for my entering this study is so apt, it has been exactly what I needed at this stage of my journey. I have struggled with the animus for a long time. For years I have studied the usual materials/books etc. but this approach to working within a group discussion of like fellow journeyers has brought about an alchemical state or condition that has helped me integrate the animus, hopefully, at least not get caught in its mischief. Thank you to the facilitators and my fellow global cohort.
Susan
I will offer my gratitude here, as well, for this course, Anja and Tasha – the materials, lectures and applications were so well put together, and your responses to questions asked by participants so illuminating. And of course I am grateful for all that shared here, as it was thought provoking process all around. My tool/medicine kit for living fully has been profoundly enriched. I am also particularly appreciative of the materials covered and applications, as they reflect a solid grounding in this approach to well-being and authenticity. They require much energy, and sometimes patience, but were presented in a way that I find very usable/ accessible. I have added to my resource kit for living fully, and I am quite grateful for those able to share over this course’s forum, as I learned much from that openness. Cheers
