Jung understood that an encounter with the archetypal world can transform our sense of who we are. When we experience something greater than the familiar ego, we begin to recognize a deeper source of meaning and value within the psyche.

We no longer have to depend so heavily on recognition, approval, or admiration from the outside world to feel that we matter.

This is part of the journey of individuation: discovering that your worth cannot be measured by how others perceive you. The deeper Self offers a different kind of grounding, one that doesn’t require the world to constantly reassure you of your existence.

The question is whether you are living from your own inner center or still waiting for the outside world to tell you who you are.

Stop seeking permission to be who you are. Begin the work of discovering it.

We live in a culture that is constantly trying to explain, diagnose, manage, and move on.

But what might we miss when we do?

Jung opened the door to a psychology grounded in dreams, archetypes, symbols, the unconscious, and the mysterious process of individuation.

James Hillman pushed that door wider.

Hillman challenged psychology to take images seriously, to recognize imagination as fundamental to psychic life and to encounter symptoms, dreams, fantasies, and myths as expressions of a soul that cannot be reduced to diagnosis or explanation.

On October 17, Dr. Glen Slater, PhD explores the relationship between Jung and Hillman and the possibilities of re-visioning psychology through their work.

If you’ve ever felt that there is more to your inner life than what can be explained, this conversation is for you.

Marie-Louise von Franz speaks of the Self, as an inner divine essence that remains ultimately unknowable. We cannot grasp it completely, define it, or reduce it to an idea. Yet it reveals itself through hints, symbols, dreams, and moments of profound inner recognition.

The Self is the greater totality of the psyche, extending far beyond the conscious ego. The task is to enter into a living relationship with this deeper center, learning to listen to what it reveals rather than assuming we already know who we are.

This is where the work becomes a lived experience.

Through her Online Sacred Circles, Kathleen Wiley explores practices that help us cultivate a more conscious relationship with the Self and the divine within. Through embodiment, awareness, and spiritual practice, we can become more receptive to the wisdom that emerges from within.

The divine within us may remain a mystery. But we can learn to listen.

Marie-Louise von Franz reminds us that the purpose of depth psychology is not to give us another set of beliefs to follow, but to deepen our understanding of the human soul.

It asks us to look inward, confront the unconscious, recognize our projections, and discover what our dreams are trying to reveal.

Wisdom is the willingness to encounter the unknown within ourselves and allow that encounter to transform us.

The goal is to become more conscious.
