SUMMARY:Alchemical Workshop:  Summer workshop for Jung Club members and th
 eir guests
DESCRIPTION:Summer\nAlchemical\nWorkshop\n\nSunday\, July 28\, 2002 at 4:00
 pm\n\nCenturies ago alchemists sealed mundane materials into vessels\, tha
 t they repeatedly heated\, cooled and reheated. As they checked the progre
 ss of their work they watched the contents of their vessels change. In the
 ir manuscripts\, they comment upon the progress of the Work in esoteric pa
 ssages and dreamlike\, enigmatic images of people\, animals\, two-headed h
 ermaphrodites\, chimeric monstrosities and others.\n\nWe know now that the
 ir quest to turn lead into gold was a deluded physical impossibility. Howe
 ver\, Carl Jung noticed these same fantastic images spontaneously appearin
 g in the dreams and fantasies of his analysands. While these modern people
  were naïve of alchemy\, they were intently focused on obtaining solution
 s to their enduring life problems. Jung went on to research and write exte
 nsively about alchemical imagery as archetypal symbolism for the process o
 f personal transformation and individuation.\n\nThis summer we invite you 
 to a workshop that will explore recurrent alchemical imagery in view of th
 e work of Jung\, vonFrans\, Edinger and others. Then we will create person
 al individuation montages by containing evocative objects into special ves
 sels. These vessels may suggest past\, present or imminent stages in our w
 ork.\n\nWe have some small\, round-bottomed\, Pyrex\, chemical flasks for 
 use as containers\, as well as sundry other supplies—sand\, rice\, beans
 . Feel free to bring your own vessels for containment. Embark on the refle
 ctive process of collection your objects\, dreams\, and compelling alchemi
 cal images for the workshop. If you are a club member you should receive a
  flyer in the mail announcing the location and other details of this event
 .
