A New Kind of Phoenix Friends Program

We are trying something new with Dr. Murray Stein’s program. Dr. Stein will prepare a video especially for Phoenix Friends, which we will watch together at an in-person gathering.

Following the presentation, we will have a group discussion and develop several questions and comments to send to Dr. Stein. He will then prepare a second recording responding to our questions, creating an ongoing conversation between Dr. Stein and our Phoenix Friends community.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Jung died in 1961 – 65 years ago this year on June 6. He was born in 1875 – 150 years ago in 2025, the year of the IAAP Congress in Zurich. From this distance, we can begin to assess his legacy to humanity. Jung belonged to a first generation of Europeans who saw beyond the confines of Europe and could take in all the cultures of the world. Depth psychology, Jung’s legacy, unifies humanity and beyond that unifies humanity with the fundamentals of the cosmic order. This lecture will discuss some distinctive features of this legacy.

Bio:

Murray Stein, Ph.D. is a Training and Supervising Analyst at the International School of Analytical Psychology-Zurich (ISAP-ZURICH). He has been president of the International Association for Analytical Psychology (2001-2004) and of ISAP-ZURICH (2008-2012). He is the author of Jung’s Map of the Soul and of many other books and articles. Ten volumes of his Collected Writings have been published to date. With Henry Abramovitch, he has written six plays, among them the recent “Twilight at Bollingen” about Jung’s last years.

A SPECIAL OFFER FOR EARLY REGISTRANTS

A limited number of early registrants will receive a complimentary Kindle edition of Dr. Murray Stein’s recent book, Jung’s Map of the Soul: Deeper Explorations, an expansion of his influential earlier work, Jung’s Map of the Soul.

That earlier book found an unexpected new audience when the Korean pop group BTS drew upon Jungian ideas—including the Persona, Shadow and Ego—for their Map of the Soul era. It is a striking example of the continuing reach of Jung’s ideas into contemporary culture and a particularly appropriate connection for a program exploring Jung’s legacy today and tomorrow.
