"Spiritual Pilgrim Discovering Another World"
FALL JUNGIAN SEMINAR!
Old Age: Coming Full Circle
Saturday, December 14, 2013
American society is not kind to the elderly. Old age is seen chiefly in terms of its deficits, while youth is the object of one-sided admiration. Our very national identity is sometimes expressed in terms dismissive of “old Europe,” as if we, by virtue of youthful vigor alone, were destined to win the great race to Progress. The irony is, of course, that each of us moves daily farther into the aging process, ill-prepared to meet its challenges or to appreciate its values, whether in ourselves or in others. Jung envisioned the years past mid-life as those in which individuation comes to its fullest fruition. Let’s take an unsentimental but enlivening look at this unique passage, through the lenses of poetry, fairy tale, myth, dream, and reminiscence.
This seminar will be held at 1204 The Plaza, Suite 4, Charlotte, 28205 from 9:00 am - 12:00 pm, with a short break midway. Light refreshments are served. The cost is $50 per person and is payable with check or cash on the day of the seminar. (Scholarships are now available.) Space is sometimes limited. For reservations, please call (704) 377-0688 or click here to send email. (Please note that the seminar room is on the second floor and is not wheelchair accessible.)
