Forgiveness: A Jungian Approach
Book now
Forgiveness is an intensely personal experience. The theological understanding of forgiveness differs across various schools of thought. Indeed, Jung wrote very little about forgiveness. However, the archetypal experience is central to the individuation process. This talk will focus on psychological and spiritual growth, with the soul’s development central to one’s capacity to forgive. Utilizing scenes from the film Magnolia (2000, Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson) and several plates from the Rosarium Philosophorum, the talk will circumambulate the archetypal experience of forgiveness as it unfolds in the individuation process.
