Jung and Relationships
an eight week college level course

This course is an ideal resource for anyone interested in learning more about a Jungian approach to human relationships. We’ll look at romantic relationships, family relationships, work relationships, and relationships on a broader, cultural level. In addition to Jung’s key ideas on the anima and animus, we’ll look at the phenomenon of projection as a type mystification, enchantment, or trance state which can cause multiple problems and challenges when interacting with others. We’ll explore how such states of mind often introduce unresolved early family dynamics into our present day interactions.

The full course includes one free class plus eight modules with resources and further learning opportunities available through our online learning platform, www.depthpsychologyacademy.com. Students who successfully complete all of the assignments in the online learning platform will earn a certificate of completion.

Attendees may also simply audit the course,
without needing to complete assignments for credit

“On a low level the animus is an inferior Logos, a caricature of the differentiated masculine mind, just as on a low level the anima is a caricature of the feminine Eros.”

~ Carl Jung, Commentary on the Secret of the Golden Flower, Par. 60.

For many people, one of the most challenging areas of life is interpersonal human relationships. Whether it is family relationships, romantic relationships, work relationships, community relationships, or international relationships between governments, human beings are social animals and human relationships mean everything to us. Moreover, as Carl Jung is said, “The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed” (Modern Man in Search of a Soul, p. 49). The focus of this course is romantic relationships, especially relationships between men and women, however, we will touch on all manner of human relations in one way or another. Beginning with the phenomenon of psychological projection, and the process of individuation, we’ll look at Jung’s theory of the anima/animus and how Jung’s work can be related to such ideas as a imago theory, Bowen’s family systems theory, and other approaches to working with human relationships.
