ABout Jung platform

Carl Jung's psychology developed through decades of hard work, personal crisis, discovery, and facing difficult questions about the nature of the psyche. His life was itself an individuation process.

Jung was a brilliant young psychiatrist. He encountered Freud as a fellow explorer of the unconscious, and for a period their work converged. Freud saw the unconscious as a repository of what had been repressed. Over time, Jung sensed something larger. A deeper layer, impersonal and collective, shared by all human beings across all times and cultures. He broke with Freud in 1912. 

What followed was the most difficult period of his life. Jung descended into his own unconscious. He recorded visions, dialogued with inner figures, painted and wrote his way through territory that had no map. This became the Red Book. It produced, slowly, the concepts that would define his mature psychology: the archetypes, the collective unconscious, the Self, active imagination.

As he emerged from that period, Jung turned toward the world's spiritual traditions. He read deeply in Gnosticism, mythology, and the religious texts of India, China, and Tibet. He found in the East what the post-Enlightenment West had largely set aside: an understanding of the inner life in which consciousness was not merely a subject of inquiry but the very ground of reality. This was something the East had mapped with precision across centuries of contemplative and philosophical tradition.

And then came alchemy. Jung discovered that medieval European practitioners had been doing, unconsciously, what he had been doing consciously in the Red Book. The symbolic language of transformation he had been developing had ancient roots. What Jung had been charting in himself, the alchemists had been living for centuries, leaving a trail in symbolic text and image. Individuation was a timeless human process.

Jung died in 1961, but his work continues to surface. The Black Books, the private journals in which he recorded his inner experiences from 1913 onwards and which formed the raw material for the Red Book, were published in 2020. They give readers an unmediated view into the texture of his imaginative life. More recently, new material connected to his autobiography Memories, Dreams, Reflections was published. Interviews and conversations that formed the basis of that book, long thought lost or unavailable, are now being recovered. Jung remains, decades after his death, a thinker still in the process of being fully known.

What started as sheer enthusiasm has grown into something larger.
We are passionate about Jung's work and depth psychology. We want to share with others what
great Jungian and depth psychology teachers have to offer.

Our mission is to make Jungian and depth psychology available to all. 
We offer courses to help you understand Carl Jung's theory, and we help you apply it to your own life.

Jung's worldview resonates with many, because it takes seriously what society often overlooks:
the unknown, dreams, mythological stories and themes, and the parts of us that never got to live.

What surfaces in dreams, in patterns we cannot explain, in the recurring shape of our relationships, is information.
We learn from it who we are, what it means to be human, and it raises real questions about the nature of reality itself.
