Welcome to the home of the C.G. Jung Foundation of Ontario on the World Wide Web!
Our brochure for the 2011-12 year has been printed for mailing to those who asked for it. If you would like a copy, do please contact the office. An electronic version is located here on this website. We hope you'll be please with the reduction of membership fees!
The Autumn 2011 issue of our newsletter Chiron is located here. This was slightly delayed from the norm, since our graduation ceremony for the Analyst Training Programme was delayed as well, and we wanted to introduce the new analysts to you.
If you feel so moved, we – the Public Programme Management Committee, consisting of analysts Robert Black, Jean Connon Unda, Caroline Duetz, Tim Pilgrim and Elisabeth Pomès – would also be glad to hear from you with reactions to what's been offered so far, any suggestions and your hopes for the future. We'd also be very happy to include in the newsletter your art, poetry and other creative offerings connected to the thought and worldview of C.G. Jung.

Pigs, Severed Heads and Menstrual Blood
Lecture
Beverly Clarkson
Fri., Jan. 27 7:30-9:30pm
Third Floor, 223 St. Clair Ave. W.
Or register and pay by telephone or mail
More often than not, we experience dreams or fantasies of pigs, severed heads or menstrual blood as repugnant – even threatening. But if we excavate the roots of these images in ancient Celtic mythology, we encounter Cerridwen, the lunar White Sow Goddess, the rituals around kingship and the “ensouled” land, and the mead which – when imbibed – bestowed gifts of prophecy and poetic inspiration. The lecture will delve into these three motifs by way of Celtic myth, dreams from modern case material and visual art.’
$20 in advance; $25 at the door; Sustaining Members free - call office for ticket.
