Carl Jung, Alchemy & the Rise of the Feminine // Amsterdam Course


Following part I of the course entitled Course - History of the Feminine and the Rise of a New Story, now follows PART TWO of this course with a continuation of 3 LESSONS. It is not necessary to have followed the first part of the course to be able to follow this course.

ABOUT THE COURSE
In Part 1 of this Course, we explored the history of human consciousness and how it has changed during the past eras, staring with the Lunar Era - the Palaeolithic, Neolithic & Bronze Age - into the Solar Era - starting with the Iron Age - where masculine values started to become more important and the feminine started to recede into the collective shadow.
In the next three classes, we will dive into a practical understanding and approach of the work of Carl Jung, who brought forth a reconnection to the Feminine in the modern language of depth-psychology. We’ll explore his connection and love for Alchemy and his discovery of the Shadow and the Collective Unconscious.

Class 1
Carl Jung, Dreamwork & Alchemy

Class 2
The Shadow, the Collective Unconscious & the Primordial Soul

Class 3
Sleeping Beauty: a fairy tale of our time.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR OF 'THE DREAM OF THE COSMOS'
Anne Baring is a pioneer in the historical research of the feminine aspect of the gods… She addresses the real cultural roots of the multifaceted crisis we currently experience globally - spiritually, psychologically, ecologically, socially, politically and economically. Baring derived inspiration from the ideas that are present in the Embassy of the Free Mind, which is also why she personally embraces the initiative. As a young researcher, Faranak Mirjalili will bring these ideas closer to us.
