Friday evening lecture:
Location: St Laurence Anglican Church
Date: Friday, April 28th 7pm - 9pm
This lecture will explore the vital role of emotion in the journey of individuation – focusing on the instinctual survival emotions. The lecture begins with a brief synopsis of the assigned role and importance of emotion throughout history,
Judith will then look at Carl Jung’s research and writing on emotion, including the association experiment, complex theory and archetypal energy. The remainder of the lecture will focus on the six survival emotions – fear, anger, disgust, surprise, sorrow and joy, describing each in more detail and their role in consciously becoming oneself.
