Gleanings from the Dreamfield with Russell Lockhart, Ph.D.

  • June 11, 25; July 9, 23; August 6, 20 (6 sessions) 
  • 10 am – 12 pm, Pacific Time.
  • Cost: $10/ session /recordings available for ticket holders

In this seminar I will focus on a book I am writing entitled, Gleanings from the Dreamfield. The purpose of this book is to describe thirteen or so dreams I have had over my lifetime that were life changing. I will describe the dream, how I worked with it, what changes I made because of the dream and dream work, and how the dream mentored by understanding of dreams and how to work with them.

In addition to dreams, I will also focus on synchronicities and visions and how to work with them. In my experience of the deep psyche, I find that dreams, synchronicities, and visions all function as mentors, bringing to awareness things I do not know, but things I must take into account and act on. Using my own experiences to illustrate these ways will allow me to more fully convey what dreams have taught me, why I value them, and why I think that they are the most efficacious guide to how to live as the sixth extinction unfolds.

No prior knowledge, experience, or previous participation in the group is required.

THE RED BOOK

A Seminar with Bette Joram, Ph.D.

 

  • ONLINE
  • 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of every month
  • Time: 7 – 8:30 PM Pacific Time
  • Cost:  $ 10/ session

As Jung wrestled with powerful images and experiences sent forth by the unconscious, he was “taken to the mat” again and again.  As he sweated it out intellectually, physically, morally, and spiritually, within these pages, so will we. As we read and discuss The Red Book together, we, too, will struggle with the implications of this material for our own understanding of ourselves, the times we live in, and the meaning and consequences that our own encounters with the unconscious present to us, and the way the unconscious effects society at large. The Red Book lays the groundwork in which Jung began to formulate the constructs which later appear throughout his Collected Works.

Fairy Tale Fridays

Jung Library Study Group

(IN THE LIBRARY!) FIRST WEDNESDAY OF THE MONTH 

In the library, Lael Cassidy hosts an in-person discussion group based on Jung’s Dream Analysis: Notes on the Seminar Given in 1928-1930.

  • Noon – 2:00pm
  • Nancy Alvord Library at Good Shepherd Center, Room 222. 
  • The group is open to the public with a suggested donation of $10 per session. 

In this study group, we intend to invite the voice of C.G. Jung into the room and to provide a space to reflect with our whole selves. We will attend his seminar and enter into specific dreams with him. 

We are reading C.G. Jung’s Dream Analysis: Notes on the Seminar Given in 1928-1930, one lecture per month. New participants are welcome at any time. We send a PDF version of the upcoming lecture a few days before each meeting (typically about 15 pages). If you want to receive this email, please reach out to Lael Cassidy, laelcassidy@gmail.com 

Print-outs can be provided in the meeting if needed.

(If you want your own copy of the book, Part 1 of the lecture series is readily available in paperback and on kindle where books are sold. The full volume is only available in hardback, and quite expensive, but at the current rate we won’t reach part 2 until mid-2025)

To invite the unconscious to participate, art supplies will be available for those who wish. There will also be time to discuss/share art and other feeling/thinking responses to the work.

For more information, contact Lael at laelcassidy@gmail.com
