 e oldest and most profound books of wisdom whose origins go back to Chines
 e shamanism and prototypical Chinese ideograms. Jung\, who used it extensi
 vely\, described the I Ching as a book of archetypal imagery first assembl
 ed in 1050 BCE. Every major Chinese thinker\, artist\, and philosopher had
  been influenced by I Ching until the modern era. One can put a question t
 o the book and via synchronicity get a meaningful answer. Examples will be
  given to illustrate how the book can be used personally and in the therap
 eutic setting for guidance on relationships\, difficult life situations\, 
 and psychological and spiritual development. Links will be made between dr
 eam imagery and the hexagrams in the I Ching.\n\nLearning objectives:\n\nD
 escribe three ways that the I Ching can be used for psychological developm
 ent and in the psychoanalytic process.\n\nBecome familiar with the relatio
 nship between dream imagery and the archetypal imagery depicted by the hex
 agrams in the I Ching.\n\nDennis Merritt\, LCSW\, PhD\, has a PhD from Ber
