9-week evening course

May 8, 2023 – July 3, 2023

Carl Jung is one of the most influential psychologists in history.  His discoveries are fundamental to many complementary and spiritual therapies.

Jung’s work shows the importance of spirituality for human well-being.

Jung discovered the underlying patterns which all religions share and how they reveal the inner dynamics of the human mind.  Understanding Jung enables us to understand many aspects of society, to see the inner truths all religions share, and to understand the psychological crises many people suffer from in this modern world.  An understanding of the theories of Carl Jung is essential for a holistic understanding of the person.

Jung’s insights are seen in the design of Tarot cards, many spiritual beliefs and our modern understandings of how the mind works, the importance of myth and legend, and the dynamics of human societies.

This course will provide a quick and easy overview of Jung’s amazing insights.  It assumes no prior knowledge.

The course covers the main elements of Jung’s wide-ranging discoveries.  The course will include practical exercises in Jung’s most important techniques for self-discovery.

“The tagline got me – ‘intellectually curious‘. I heard of Jung and knew a bit about his archetypes and shadow-self theories. I have also been running into many more events on various issues regarding synchronicity and have wanted to learn more about this aspect since Jung coined the phrase and the belief. I’ve also taken other courses with Owen and learned years ago – you follow the professor! Owen put substantial research, time, and effort into pulling this course together. The slides were very helpful. This course would apply to a very wide audience. Very pleased and happy; thank you for sharing your knowledge.” – Michelle M.
