Jungian Psychology Brighton Pub Chat - Shadow: The Witch & Senex Archetypes

Come along and meet interesting and likeminded folk in a lovely pub in Brighton. We have the upstairs function room reserved for our group.

Anyone with an interest in Carl Jung and his work is welcome to come along and chat with likeminded people. No specific knowledge or expertise required. In the past we have had a diverse mix of therapists, psychologists, coaches, general enthusiasts, curious beginners and more.

The topic for this session is the critical parent: portrayed in myth and folklore as witch and senex archetypal characters. These aspects of the shadow side of human nature are reminders of some of the most destructive behaviour we experience from people in everyday life. Relevant things to consider as we approach Halloween and the darkest season of the year.

Our group organiser Richard will provide some relevant quotes from Jung and questions to inspire our conversations in small groups, with opportunities to move around and meet different people.

The main meetup lasts for about 2 hours or so, but many people stay around later to drink and socialise further.
