Explore Jung&#39;s use of astrology as a map of the psyche! Jung proposed the existence of the Collective Unconscious, filled with universal inherited symbols known as archetypes. An avid student of the art of astrology, he understood the astrological mandala as a map of the individual&rsquo;s psyche. In his famous 1947 letter to the astrologer B.V. Raman, Jung wrote, &ldquo;in cases of difficult psychological diagnosis, I usually get a horoscope in order to have a further point of view from an entirely different angle.&rdquo;&nbsp; This presentation will not only explore Jung&rsquo;s connection and uses of astrological studies in his work and theories but will also have actual demonstrations of the astrological map with volunteers from the audience. With over five decades of professional practice, Alexander Mallon blends astrological counseling/consulting with his background in Clinical Art Therapy and Body Centered Gestalt training. Throughout the years, Alexander has been featured on numerous radio and television programs, and since 2011 he has been the keynote speaker at Professor Robert Thurman&rsquo;s Menla Winter Solstice Retreat, a healing and lecture center of Tibet House U.S.A., in the Catskill mountains of N.Y.

Jung on Astrology: "The Science of Antiquity" with Alexander Mallon

Step into the hidden language of the unconscious through the magic of collective dream sharing. Together, we will explore the wisdom of dreams, how they guide, heal, and reveal. You don&rsquo;t need to bring a dream to participate; listening is just as powerful. One dream will be selected from those who wish to share, and the group will explore it with care and curiosity. Bring a notebook, a pen, and most of all, an open heart and mind. You&rsquo;re welcome whether you&rsquo;re new to Jung or a long-time reader; curiosity and openness are all you need. Helen Walker is a facilitator of contemplative and experiential practices that support self-awareness, reflection, and inner inquiry. With nearly three decades of professional experience in library science and public service, she brings a deep respect for learning and listening, along with a strong sense of community, into her work. Her background includes meditation, Qigong, Reiki, and long-term personal engagement with her own dreams. Helen&rsquo;s approach centers on presence, curiosity, and embodied experience, creating spaces that feel held, human, and accessible. She works with dreams and symbolic material as living sources of reflection, inviting participants to listen inward and explore their inner life together.

Blending insight and humor, Chris Cunniffe&nbsp;will explore how meaningful coincidences and inner symbols shape the stories we live. Rooted in Jung&rsquo;s ideas of synchronicity and the collective unconscious, the program will invite the audience to look closer at moments that seem to &ldquo;line up&rdquo; in unexpected ways. Chris will share his own extensive dream and synchronicity journaling practice to encourage audience members to devote more energy to studying their own synchronicities and dreams. Fun fact: The title of the talk is intended as an intentional juxtaposition to &ldquo;The Strenuous Life&rdquo; famously advocated by Teddy Roosevelt.&nbsp; About the Presenter:Chris Cunniffe is originally from Long Island, NY. &nbsp;He relocated to the Charleston, SC area in 1998.

In 2015, he founded Lucid Coaching, LLC. &nbsp;In his coaching practice, Chris seeks to blend the masculine energy foundation of his early adult years with the feminine energy that has steadily emerged within his consciousness in during his mid-life years, especially the intuition, wisdom and creativity that he has gleaned from studying his dreams and synchronicity experiences.
