Join us as we explore the Anima Mundi – the “Soul of the World” – first in the work of Swiss psychoanalyst C. G. Jung and Nobel Prize winning Irish poet W. B. Yeats. We will also consider its spiritual and ecological significance for our world today, and how
this ancient idea can help to understand the current climate crisis.
Topics will include:
C. G. Jung and the World Soul
W. B. Yeats and the Anima Mundi
The Anima Mundi and Psychotherapy
Cultural and Historical Perspectives (Berman/Tarnas)
Gaia Theory and Global Warming (Lovelock)
An Indigenous Perspective
Towards an Eco-Psychotherapy (Rust)
We will also invite those attending to reflect on the potential of the Anima Mundi to facilitate both personal and environmental healing.
