Cowburn, Sheila. "Celibacy and individuation : a Jungian perspective." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 1990. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/13853.
Full textThe aim of this study is to answer the question: is celibacy psychologically heal thy with specific reference to Christianity? Jungian theory is utilized to develop a theoretical framework in which celibacy may be viewed. The meaning of celibacy is initially examined from a Christian perspective as a form of love and contrasted with celibacy's meaning and implications from a Jungian perspective. This is done by means of a comprehensive exposition of Jung's concept of individuation, what is understood by "psychological health" and how this is linked with religious experience. The integration of instinctuality and spirituality is then centrally addressed in an elaboration of the concepts of sexuality, religion and mysticism and Jung's critique of Christianity. Further levels of the meaning of celibacy, as possible specific and unique constellations of an individual's psychic development are examined in both negative and positive forms. It is concluded that from a Jungian perspective celibacy in the main is not psychologically healthy, and specific points of departure between Jung and Catholicism are highlighted.
Graham, Owen B. "The Chiron Complex| From Spiritual Bypassing to Individuation." Thesis, Pacifica Graduate Institute, 2017. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10259225.
Full textThis thesis uses hermeneutic and heuristic methodologies to draw together the myth of Chiron and the phenomenon of spiritual bypassing. Spiritual bypassing is the tendency to use spiritual beliefs, teachings, and practices to avoid dealing with one’s psychology, painful feelings, unresolved wounds, and developmental issues. Chiron is a mythological figure who mentored a number of Greek heroes and Asclepius, the god of medicine in ancient Greek religion and mythology. Chiron, like his mentee Asclepius, embodies the Wounded Healer archetype. Chiron’s wounding and healing journey can serve as a roadmap for spiritual practitioners on how to navigate out of bypass and deepen their path toward self-realization and individuation. Developing an archetypal awareness of one’s wounds appears to reveal the aspects of one’s psychology defended against in spiritual bypass. This emerging roadmap and lessons from Chiron’s journey may help therapists, healers, and spiritual teachers accelerate their own path and assist clients.

Full textThis thesis draws on Jungian psychology, neuroscience, ecopsychology, and cosmology to explore the role of the imagination in facilitating individuation at personal and planetary levels. Employing the methodology of organic inquiry, it is proposed that our imaginative faculties be revisioned as extensions of an exquisitely creative universe. The potential of engaging these streams of creative energy through active imagination is explored, particularly their capacity to heal trauma by integrating dissociated neural nets into the mainstream flow of the brain. It is suggested that this movement toward internal psychic wholeness may be mirrored in the external world as we step into right brain, imaginal, embodied modes of being. The thesis investigates whether such a holistic lens may allow us to see through the destructive Western myth of humanity’s separation from nature, enabling us to reconnect at a profound level, to our one and only life support system, the Earth.

Full textThis thesis utilizes hermeneutic methodology and a depth perspective to explore how women’s connection with their bodies impacts their growth during the individuation process. Western culture is discussed in terms of its emphasis on rational thought and progress—the realm of Yang and Logos. Although the phenomenon of the dominating masculine principle has enabled rapid technological and scientific development, repercussions may exist as a result of the suppressed Yin and Eros energies. Such ramifications are examined in relevance to Jung’s theory of individuation and the body. Separation from the body is researched through studies on objectification theory, dissociation, disordered eating, and cosmetic surgery. Alternatively, practices including yoga, Vipassana meditation, Watsu, Authentic Movement, and image-based bodywork are reviewed to illuminate the benefit of somatic connection. Results indicate that integrating the body, mind, and soul through conscious awareness can facilitate Weetern women’s journey toward wholeness.

Full textUnrequited love is a form of love in which a person’s feelings of romantic love toward another are not reciprocated. This thesis is an exploration of unrequited love from a depth psychological perspective, taking into account the powerful yet mysterious influence of the archetypes of the collective unconscious on this common human experience. Utilizing a hermeneutic methodology to amplify theories from both psychology and mythology, the author seeks to provide a road map for understanding how and why unrequited love can be used as a means of initiating the process of individuation. Readings of the literature serve to provide a solid foundation for understanding depth psychological concepts and to articulate the difference between the two sides of unrequited love. The author uses the protagonist from the film Angus to exemplify the way in which the projection of unconscious archetypes can eventually lead one toward a balance of psyche and self-knowledge.
Loghry, John Brendan. "The recreation of consciousness| Artificial intelligence and human individuation." Thesis, Pacifica Graduate Institute, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3605083.
Full textStarting from Edward Edinger's portrayal of Jung's process of individuation as the creation of consciousness, this dissertation asks in what ways the creation of artificial intelligence (AI) can be seen as the recreation of consciousness, and specifically whether the AI's maturation from nonconsciousness to something equivalent to consciousness will have an analogous effect on humanity's development out of unconsciousness toward a greater state of cognitive freedom. Taking a functional perspective, this dissertation asks whether B. F. Skinner's metaphor of the human psyche as a black box, normally seen as expressing the belief that humans are mechanistic and determined, is in fact an attempt to insulate the most intimate of human experiences (the soul) from the intrusive gaze of the scientific mindset. Juxtaposing this black box metaphor with two other metaphors—that of the box that holds Schrodinger's cat and that of Pandora's box—this dissertation asks whether the presence of an entirely constructed entity that displays all the signs of soul will cause the artificially intelligent entity to act as a mirror, reflecting humanity's gaze past our inner defenses, to an inner absence where a metaphysical soul was once surmised to be. Although such a change in self-image would initially entail an apparent loss of meaning, this dissertation notes that such a lacuna of meaning is already growing in society and concludes that the loss of this concept would eventually result in a new concept of self that would represent an important milestone for the collective individuation of the species.
Venecia, Gonzalo. "Individuation, Music, and Memory| A Connection With Songs of the Top 40." Thesis, Pacifica Graduate Institute, 2013. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1522960.
Full textBillboard magazine’s Top 40 songs from one’s youth can impact one’s psyche during midlife and instill the individuation process with depth and meaning, leading toward an enlarged sense of self that can take one on a path toward wholeness. The therapeutic healing nature of music is reviewed, focusing on its influence on adolescence from a Jungian perspective and its innate relationship to shamanism. Utilizing a heuristic research methodology and the ideas of archetypal psychology, this thesis incorporates the author’s personal life experience with popular music and dreams in a brief memoir highlighting each 12-year Jupiter Return cycle, midlife, and the midlife crisis. Combining the language and concepts of depth psychology, a passion for Top 40 music, a series of dreams with pertinent synchronicities, and storytelling pave the way and inform the author’s hero’s journey, a spiritual quest unveiling an initiation of death and resurrection marking the birth of a shaman.

Full textThe dissertation seeks to understand, from a depth psychological perspective, the individual and collective manifestations of anxiety that clients bring to therapy. Anxiety has often been misunderstood as a negative and/or pathological agent, and not has been honored as a potential hidden gift for personal transformation.
The dissertation explores the reasons why it is possible for transformation to occur out of a self-aware engagement with anxiety at the level of the psyche, as opposed to treating anxiety as merely a physiological and behavioral symptom. It uncovers the metaphors and archetypal dimensions of anxiety and how they precipitate a shift within the individual and collective psyche.
The findings suggest that anxiety is potentially an inherent impulse from the psyche that is activated during the process of individuation—i.e., the period of time that Self is emerging in order to be integrated with the more ego-oriented self. Anxiety as a movement towards change operates as the inner-Hermes or messenger drive of the psyche, which informs consciousness through discomfort and suffering with the hidden intention to break inner limitations, and move one forward towards individuation.
Along these lines, this research suggests that it is important for professional psychotherapists and their clients to understand that anxiety is in fact an essential part of the human condition—a part that, despite its negative connotations (and experiential manifestations), can also serve tremendously positive transformational functions.
The research approach is hermeneutic, characterized by holistic and archetypal as well as alchemical associations. The dissertation develops a depth psychological theory by weaving philosophical, psychological, archetypal, and alchemical concepts in order to create the necessary associations that would support the notion that anxiety is a response to the inner impulse of the psyche for individuation, and therefore a potentially positive agent in the transformational process that the psyche undergoes during individuation.

Full textThis thesis employs heuristic and hermeneutic methodologies to explore the lives of military wives from a depth psychological perspective. The author investigates the obstacles inherent within the military lifestyle that may hinder military wives’ journeys through the complex process of individuation. The hindrances explored include dependence, marginalization, and myriad psychological challenges such as depression, anxiety, stress, and grief that result from frequent separations from loved ones, transiency, deployments, lack of control, and loss of identity. This thesis posits that individuation is critical to achieving wholeness and a healthy psyche; however, for military wives, their lifestyles place them at a distinct disadvantage in the individuation process as compared to civilian women. Informing psychotherapists of this unique population’s struggles enables therapists to work more effectively with military wives. This work suggests possible clinical applications of the findings and discusses the clinical implications of the research.

Full textThis thesis has been written with the interest and concern for the symbolic meaning of the tale of “Beauty and the Beast,” as it illustrates a young woman’s journey of individuating, ultimately in order to meet with her own animus and true Self. The methodology for writing this thesis is hermeneutic, in that it involves a search for meaning from what has been written about the fairy tale among different texts and films that were created based on the original tale. In this thesis, “Beauty and the Beast” is analyzed by exploring what has been written about it by Jung, the post-Jungians, and Freudian thinkers. Images or objects of significance in the tale that hold meaning or power for the overall analysis of the tale are included and explained.
Jackson, Danielle. "Persona of Anime| A Depth Psychological Approach to the Persona and Individuation." Thesis, Pacifica Graduate Institute, 2017. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10637564.
Full textThe persona is an essential part of personality development that allows individuals to exhibit conventionally acceptable behaviors and to adapt them as necessary in social situations. The Jungian concept of the persona is underrepresented in depth psychological studies and so merits more development. This research aims to answer how the persona affects character development and individuation journeys through the narratives of Japanese anime. Also included was the exploration of the archetypal presence of Dionysus. Using a hermeneutic analysis of four anime series, both the protagonists and antagonists were explored at length. Additionally, pivotal fighting scenes were considered to demonstrate persona development or dissolution. Through the process of the research, I found that analysis of villains yielded more results in regard to the persona. Findings indicate that Dionysian myth is often apparent within anime, despite its cultural dissonance. A broader understanding of the persona could have an influence on the field of media studies as a way of exploring narrative within and outside a specific tradition. Findings also indicate that the depth psychology concept of the persona may also be more complex than initially thought; specifically, it may be a multilayered structure, rather than a singular one. Persona identification turns individual characters into a vessel for unconscious contents. Further analysis of persona identification can be a tool to help make inferences about the personal and collective unconscious. Keywords: persona, individuation, Dionysus, anime, inflation, persona identification
Mintz, Gavriella. "The Influences of Parental Behaviors and Individuation on Self-conscious Emotions of Adolescents and Emerging Adults." Thesis, Pace University, 2013. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3574427.
Full textShame and guilt have been distinguished as two separate self-conscious emotions; the former depicts a global negative self-evaluation, whereas the latter describes the recognition of a specific problematic behavior. Current approaches to shame and guilt have linked proneness to shame and guilt with people's experiences of the parenting characteristics of their caregivers. Additionally, accumulating evidence has linked shame and guilt to identity development in the adolescent years. This study compared the relationship of perceived parenting behaviors to individuals' tendencies to experience shame and guilt. Partial correlations were used to separate the influence of shame and guilt, and results showed a consistent, positive relationship between positive parenting behaviors and levels of guilt-proneness. Similarly, a positive correlation emerged between shame-proneness and negative parenting behaviors, but a consistent relationship between shame-proneness and positive parenting behaviors did not emerge. Correlations also were conducted to examine whether participants' levels of shame— and guilt-proneness were predicted by their levels of individuation. Correlations between guilt-proneness and individuation were not consistent, but when significant correlations emerged, they were in the predicted direction of more guilt-proneness being linked to greater individuation. Shame-proneness negatively correlated with indivuation, and most strongly amongst older emerging adults. Finally, the relationship between parenting behaviors and guilt-proneness, but not shame-proneness, was moderated by individuation. These results emphasize the importance of separating shame and guilt in assessments of these two constructs. Additionally, they deepen an understanding of the role of socialization and developmental factors in shaping the experiences of shame and guilt.

Full textGiven an additional 10 volumes that could still be added to his Collected Works and 35,000 unpublished letters, the historical record on Swiss psychiatrist, Carl Gustav Jung, remains incomplete. An example is the unpublished letters between Jung and Carol Sawyer Baumann (1897-1958), an analysand and member of Jung's circle in Zurich for 30 years. The focus of this dissertation is the period of transition between 1927 and 1932, when, after a near-death experience, Baumann shifted her attention from her husband and two children in Cleveland to a search for individuation, first as an analysand under various Jungians, including Cary and H. G. Baynes, then under Jung himself.
Jung's place in psychology is first assessed, noting that he is either generally ignored or else cast as a mere acolyte of Freud. Alternatively, the dissertation is situated in the New Jung Scholarship, which positions Jung as the 20th century exponent of the symbolic hypothesis, but in the tradition of the late 19th century psychologies of transcendence.
Jung's emerging conceptions are chronicled using his documents on individuation from 1916 until 1931. The documents show the emergence of the concepts of the persona, the personal and collective unconscious, the anima and animus, attitudinal and functional types, the balancing mechanism of the psyche, the transcendent function, and the self. These conceptions are compared to an abundance of archival evidence available on Baumann, including papers held by her heirs and primary source material from repositories in various libraries.
The interaction of Jung's theory and Carol Sawyer Baumann's interpretation of individuation reveals to what degree and in what way each influenced the other. The process of collecting, reviewing, and presenting documentary evidence, as an alternative to a hypothesis-driven approach, raises further questions from the material. The extent to which she was successful in her quest can be gauged by Carol Sawyer Baumann's superior intellectual grasp of the principles of analytical psychology, her extensive researches into non-Western cultures, and her ability to communicate her findings on the process of individuation through her lectures and published writings.
Marchese, Veronica Leandra. "Wholeness and holiness in marriage| The Catholic sacrament of matrimony as a container for individuation." Thesis, Pacifica Graduate Institute, 2016. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10108948.
Full textThe process of becoming holy within marriage generates psychological deaths and rebirths, much like the transformational process of individuation conceptualized by Carl G. Jung. This hermeneutic study explores how a distinctively Jungian approach to clinical practice with couples can assist in developing a marital bond that can become a strong container for the spouses’ individuation. A depth psychological perspective in premarital and marital counseling offers spouses the possibility of containing the opposing forces that emerge in their relationship without destroying the union. The connection between becoming holy through the sacramental marital relationship and Jung’s concept of becoming whole through individuation has received little attention in research. This study adds a dynamic aspect to Jungian studies by arguing for a new understanding of the sacrament of Matrimony as a container for psychological rebirth and transformation through individuation. In this effort, four factors that impact marriage are explored: vocation, theology of the sacrament of Matrimony, society and culture, and the body. Current clinical applications of an integrated approach are discussed demonstrating how the findings might be implemented in existing premarital and marital education and counseling programs for Catholic couples.

Full textIn this study, recent psychodynamic literature on some aspects of the significance of the father in psychological development, is reviewed. Psychoanalytic and analytical perspectives on the father are considered, with particular reference to the father's role in preoedipal development of the daughter. This is seen to be crucial for the facilitation of differentiation, as well as for psychosexual development and the formation of gender identity. The clinical case study-method is employed to illustrate the impact of the father on a depressed woman's struggle towards separation-individuation. Therapy and dream material, taken from thirty sessions of psychodynamic psychotherapy, which occurred over a period of nine months, are analysed and discussed in relation to the various theoretical positions outlined in the literature. It is concluded that for this patient, the persecutory nature of the negative paternal introject contributes significantly to the patient's inability to resist the regressive pull of symbiosis. In addition, the mother's passivity and dependence, as well as the patient's physical disability, are regarded as exacerbating factors.

Full textThis study proposes that the paintings of the Surrealist artist, Remedios Varo, reveal the process of individuation over the course of time. Since the Surrealistic approach to art was founded on the principle of representing the unconscious in artistic form, a basic assumption of this study is that transformational symbols of the individuation process should be revealed in the body of work compiled by a Surrealist artist. This dissertation will demonstrate that Varo's paintings, like dreams, follow a pattern comprised of classical symbols, images, and alchemical motifs that are universal and consistent, that are arise repeatedly in her work, and that are reflective of her individuation process. The goal is achieved through an exploration of twelve of Varo's paintings done in the last decade of her life, 1953 to 1963. This is a theoretical dissertation, utilizing both hermeneutic and heuristic approaches. The study views Varo's paintings as "texts," with interpretation through three "lenses"—the cultural-historical, the personal-historical, and the Depth-archetypal, as well as interpretation by direct, personal encounter with her works of art.
The cultural-historical perspective emphasizes the Surrealistic movement, the movement's attitude toward the feminine, and Varo's work within this context. Varo's personal life experiences, which shaped her view of the world and choice of subject matter, form the basis for the personal-historical lens. The Depth-archetypal perspective draws its focus from the central issues in Depth psychology, including the individuation process and active imagination. Additionally, the paintings will be examined for their collective content, particularly as it can be understood to reveal unconscious themes.
This study suggests that an intense examination of Varo's paintings can serve as a microcosm of the individuation process and provide a guide for the therapeutic enhancement of that process in the therapy room by its replicative capacity. This study also suggests that the images in this study can be utilized as "snapshots" of moments of transformation and psychic forms of expression to guide patients as they embark on their respective journeys of individuation.

This study aimed at identifying those aspects that constitute the concept of freedom under the perspective of Analytical Psychology, presenting a reflection on freedom and its limits in the psychic field, on autonomy and dependence and on the importance of freedom for the individuation process. This work has a theoretical nature and is based on the bibliographical review of the work of Carl Gustav Jung and on the review of articles and books dealing with the theme of freedom. In the literature, from the writings of C.G. Jung on freedom and, later, in the studies of Jungians and post-Jungians on the subject, four categories were identified: Liberty, morality and ethics; Consciousness, complex, unconscious and freedom; Collective consciousness and psychic massification; Individuation process, Self and freedom. The analysis and discussion of the findings suggest that freedom is an important phenomenon for the psychic life, requires responsibility and means taking the direction of one's own actions. Its opposite, defensive freedom, seems to be an escape from responsibility. However, it is not possible to affirm that there is full free will, because unconscious instances, at individual and collective levels, are, at all times, pressing the conscience due to its autonomous functioning. However, the unconscious, as well as collective and group processes can open up a range of possibilities for freedom. The individuation process is a gradual path towards freedom, giving the individual greater awareness of unconscious processes and dynamics of the collective consciousness, and favoring choices that are more conscious and free of determinations, even though in this process the individual needs to make sacrifices. These conclusions point to the clinical importance of the topic
O presente trabalho teve como objetivo levantar os aspectos que compõem o conceito de liberdade sob o olhar da Psicologia Analítica, apresentando uma reflexão sobre a liberdade e seus limites no campo psíquico, sobre a autonomia e a dependência e sobre a importância da liberdade para o processo de individuação. Este trabalho tem um caráter teórico, tendo sido realizado a partir da revisão bibliográfica da obra de Carl Gustav Jung e da varredura de artigos e livros que tratam da temática liberdade. Na literatura, a partir dos escritos de C. G. Jung sobre liberdade e, posteriormente, nos estudos de junguianos e pós-junguianos sobre o tema, foram identificadas quatro categorias: Liberdade, moral e ética; Consciência, complexos, inconsciente e liberdade; Consciência coletiva e massificação psíquica; Processo de individuação, Self (si-mesmo) e liberdade. A análise e discussão dos dados levantados sugerem que a liberdade é um fenômeno importante para a vida psíquica, exige responsabilidade e significa tomar para si a direção dos próprios atos. Seu oposto, a liberdade defensiva, parece ser a fuga da responsabilidade. Entretanto, não é possível afirmar que exista o pleno livre arbítrio, pois instâncias inconscientes, nos níveis individual e coletivo, estão, a todo o momento, pressionando a consciência em razão de seu funcionamento autônomo. No entanto, o inconsciente, assim como os processos coletivos e grupais, pode abrir um leque de possibilidades em prol da liberdade. O processo de individuação é um caminho gradual rumo à liberdade, proporcionando ao indivíduo maior consciência dos processos inconscientes e dos dinamismos da consciência coletiva e favorecendo escolhas mais conscientes e mais livres das determinações, mesmo que, nesse processo, o indivíduo necessite realizar sacrifícios. Essas conclusões remetem à importância clínica do tema

Full textThis research seeks to discuss aspects of the individuation process of Tibetan Buddhism practitioners, through oral history interviews. The oral history, in this research, lies on the interface between different fields of knowledge, such as Analytical Psychology, Psychoanalysis and History. We seek to discuss the transformation of personality process, which, according to Jung, is called individuation process. The individuation process is considered in the context of the Tibetan Buddhism practice, considered a biographical turning point by its practitioners. In this research, we adopted the Oral History and Symbolic Research methodological principals and considered their ethical bases. The Tibetan Buddhism practice in contemporaneity takes place on the post-diaspora context, when, from 1959 on, Tibet was invaded and taken over by the Chinese. We ask in this research to which extent the Tibetan Buddhism may or may not offer elements that help the individual perceive himself in an aligned process to the Self and, at the same time, inserted in the human community, being able to engage in it and commit to its improvement. We took into consideration, in our discussion, aspects of the ego, the Self, the shadow and the persona, the metanoia, the dynamics of egoic inflation and egoic alienation and, also, the activation of the religious function of the psyque. We seek to discuss the aspects relative to the transformation of personality, in which a process of consciousness development is implied. We considered the complexes, the ego defenses, its shadow and also the egos ability to mediate and make choices. The processes described here are inherent to the human condition and they are part of the development and differentiation of consciousness. All our interviewees somehow associate the Buddhist practice to the possibility of going through this process in a way that is more consistent to their personality. The discussion regarding the ethical dimension on the guru-disciple relationship was necessary due to the fact that it is an important factor in the developing process of the practitioner, for the practice of \"guru devotion\" is an essential aspect of the Tibetan Buddhism religion. The future of the Tibetan Buddhism is another issue which is discussed in the interviews. Some of the interviewees associate the continuation of Tibetan Buddhism linked mainly to the process of transformation and development of personality, instead of focusing on the ritual aspects. We interviewed five Tibetan Buddhists, among which, two Tibetan monks, one lama born in the U.S. and living in Brazil for more than twenty years and two Brazilian female Buddhists. The Tibetan Buddhism practitioners who were born in the West have been in the Buddhist context for more than twenty-five years, whereas the monks built their personalities in the Buddhist context

Full textThis thesis sought to understand the separation from a love relationship as experienced by middle-aged women related to the individuation process through experiential group work in the focus of Analytical Psychology. The method used in the research was qualitative, under a symbolic archetypal perspective. Eight group meetings were held with seven participants aged from forty to fifty-five who were undergoing separation from love relationships. Expressive resources, tales and myths were used in the group in order to favor the symbolic development. The material gathered showed a large diversity of experiences in relation to the loss, such as feelings of sadness, solitude, distress, anger, wishes of revenge, a feeling of emptiness and derangement. A common matter expressed by the participants was the feeling of loss of identity in the past relationship or as a result of the separation. It was identified that this loss was associated to unconscious contents projected in the partner and in the conjugality that had not yet rejoined their consciousness. It was verified that, in some cases, the identity was grounded on the symbiotic relationship had with the partner. To recognize the anger that was in the shadows of the relationship, to bring in the projections deposited in the partner and have to face solitude revealed to be opportunities of differentiation that are necessary for the individuation process. The referential of myths and tales was used in the understanding of the data, in order to establish some expansions and analogies. Some feminine archetypal standards were shown to be activated or neglected in the psyche of the participants: betrayal turned some women into an angry and vengeful Hera, while Aphrodite looked abandoned by the lack of interest for new relationships expressed by some participants. On the other hand, the separation constellated archetypes of more independent goddesses in some women who invest on their career and education. It was noted that the thematic of the descent to the underworld expressed in the myths of Inanna and Core-Persephone was constellated on the depressive life experience of some participants, a necessary experience for the elaboration of mourning and rooting into their feminine Self, symbolized by the meeting with the dark goddess repressed in the patriarchal culture. The experiential group was shown to be efficient to favor the elaboration of mourning for the loss of their love mate through the creation of a ritual space, allowing the constellation of a new coniunctio. The expressive resources and tales and myths used facilitated the symbolic expression and mobilized the healing forces of the psyche to start the healing of the wounds caused by the loss. The group demonstrated an appropriation of their own trajectories of life, allowing them to take responsibility for the individuation process. New studies are suggested, as well as the development of experiential group work with women and man to handle the separation from love relationships in clinical settings and health institutions, seeking to contribute to the gender relationship area.

Full textThe concept of individuation, proposed by Carl G. Jung, establishes that a person, as a continuum being, in connection with its Self is guided to a journey to its fullness. Thus, this is an endless process and occurs in everyone\'s life, since birth. When a person suffers trauma that interferes with this journey, the opportunity of changes in multiple scopes is present, and it is important that the ego integrates this experience, occurring a psychic symbolization. In this study, I try to evaluate how the individuation process can occur in a creative form to people with acquired motor physical deficiency, which may bring necessary modifications for the promotion of an amplification of the conscience. So, as methodological resourse, I took narratives of psychotherapic interventions of three patients atended under brief psychotherapy in different physical rehabilitationcenters. The etiologies and the types of deficiencies are distinct: a woman with cerebral vascular event sequel, a tetraplégic man and a another woman with transfemural amputation. Based on the reports of interventions, I tried to reflect on some elements highlighted during the treatment of those patients, which. helped me to apply a brief junguian psychotherapy. The cores detected during the psychotherapic process refer to: appropriation of physical deficient persona and creative integration of the shady aspects that characterize physical loss; deficient body as symbol of the relationship with the world and himself; the analysis of destiny that was being configured in contraposition to alterations resulting from deficiency, and the return to the way produced by the Self, from the creative assimilation of deficiency to the daily life. I have placed myself as therapist-narrator of those patients psychotherapic interventions under analytical psychology view, using as referencial literary the writer Clarice Lispector, whose publications are delineated on the tragic story fiction based on real life histories. The observed results the need for a multidisciplinary approach to this kind of patients and for the possibility of rescuing the way configured previously, even so with symbolized important modifications in the impaired body.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: The mother-daughter relationship and the feminine principle in the process of individuation are explored in this study. The mother-daughter relationship as the focus of the study is presented as the womb where the stories and experiences are in gestation. In presenting this research as a transpersonal exploration, the principles and practices of transpersonal psychology and transpersonal research are used as the lens through which the process of research is viewed. The study tells the stories of adolescent daughters and their menopausal mothers and their lives as girls and women in transitional life cycles. It also tells the stories of the author's mother and of herself, and offers their shared experiences of being daughters, and remembering that they are also the daughters of daughters, the mothers of whom have passed away a long time ago. The stories are presented in the mode of a narrative inquiry, becoming an exploration in itself. The author looks into the stories of what has been written by those who have mapped the territory of the transpersonal and narrative landscapes in psychology, education, research and psychotherapy. A research collage of the mother-daughter relationship, transitional life cycles, and also of aspects of the feminine and the process of individuation is created. Images of alchemy, archetypes, mythological figures and archetypal goddesses are added to allow this collage to become its own story. The study combines research methods used in transpersonal research and narrative inquiry. Data were gathered by making use of journal writing, mandala drawings, interviews, visual imagery and photographs, collage, writing letters, personal documentation, dreamwork, working with words and personal mythology. Transpersonal principles such as meditation, reflection, mandala drawings, intuitive listening and so forth were applied in working with the data. The researcher also used principles of narrative inquiry to assist in the process of processing the information and finding the stories. The research findings that emerged indicate that a mother and daughter can hold up a mirror to each other in order to see that there are experiences of abandonment and dependency in their relationship; another mother and daughter pair related to each other from a basis of limiting self-experience; and yet another mother and her daughter were seen to have a relationship that contains powerful potential for individuation through the process of growth and transformation. These findings may be relevant to the therapeutic and educational spheres of psychology, in training and in application. This research journey is an adventure that can be seen as symbolically walking the labyrinth, following the circular path towards the centre, and then back again, out into life. This journey is symbolic of the process of individuation as based on the mythology of the serpent Ouroboros that swallows its tail in order to become whole. The process of alchemy in psychology forms the container for this journey into wholeness. Like Theseus, beloved of Ariadne of antiquity, I took the golden thread in hand and stepped into the labyrinth. The journey could begin …
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie verken die moeder-dogter verhouding en die vroulike beginsel in die individuasieproses. Die moeder-dogterverhouding as die fokus van hierdie studie word voorgestel as 'n houer vir die bewaring van belangrike aspekte van die vroulike beginsel. Die modus van transpersoonlike sielkunde en navorsing is gebruik om as 'n lens te dien waardeur hierdie proses ondersoek is. Die narratiewe navorsingsmetode is gebruik om die stories te vertel wat in hierdie studie aangebied word. Hierdie stories gaan oor die navorsingsreis, die reis van dogter-wees en moeder-wees, die reis van vrou-wording en vrou-wees in die oorgangsfases van vroue se lewens. Dit behels stories van adolessensie en die menopouse. Daarnaas geplaas is die stories van my moeder, van myself, en van ons verhouding. In hierdie vertelling oor die moeder skryf ek dit as die dogter van 'n dogter wie se moeder lank reeds oorlede is. Ek onderneem 'n reis deur die landskap van die literatuur en neem daaruit stories van aspekte van vrou-wees, van die vroulike beginsel, asook van transpersoonlike sielkunde en transpersoonlike navorsing. Dit gaan ook oor die narratiewe wyse van ondersoek en die waarde van stories in narratiewe terapie word bespreek. Hierdie navorsingsreis is 'n speurtog; soos in 'n labirint is dit 'n sirkelvormige reis, wat die mitologiese slang, Ouroboros, wat sy eie stert insluk om heel te word weerspieël. Die labirinte van die mitologie en argetipiese vroubeelde en godinne stem tot nadenke oor die sielkundige ervaring van individuasie. In die nadenke is daar, soos met die alchemiste van weleer, 'n soeke die goud in die lood en die bevindinge wat die navorsingsreis oplewer, word bekendgemaak. In hierdie reis is gebruik gemaak van transpersoonlike en narratiewe navorsingsmetodes en beginsels om die inligting te verkry waarmee die stories vertel kon word. Hierdie metodes maak onder meer gebruik van joernaalskryf, mandalas teken, onderhoude, visuele beelde en foto's, collage, briewe, persoonlike dokumente, droomwerk, woorde en woordassosiasie en persoonlike mitologie. Transpersoonlike werkswyses soos meditasie, refleksie, intuitiewe luister, joernaal skrywe en so meer is gekombineer met narratiewe werkswyses om die inligting te verwerk en die stories te ontgin. Die navorsingsbevindinge dui op ervaringe van afhanklikheid en vrese van verlating; van 'n moeder en dogter wat gebuk gaan onder beperkende ervaringe van selfvertwyfeling en die implikasie wat dit het vir hulle vrou-wees; van 'n moeder en haar dogter wat die potensiaal vir die proses van individuasie in hulle verhoudinge met hul vroueliggame vind. Die implikasies van hierdie bevindinge mag moontlik van belang wees vir sielkundiges en opvoedkundiges wat hulle in hierdie sfere van hulpverlening bevind. Soos Theseus, beminde van Ariadne van ouds, het ek die goue draad ter hand geneem en daarmee die ingang van die labirint betree. Die reis moes begin …

Full textThere were without doubt two Jung. The one who lived in his time, the psychiatrist, theorist of a psychology of the unconscious, and the one who lived at night, man of the shadows, recounting his “secret” experiences (visions, dreams, dialogues with the soul) in a book that was not published during his lifetime : the RED BOOK. In it, Jung tries to articulate the “inexpressible” regions of the psyche whose craters opened up to him in this manner, places of exiles and of discoveries, revealing the most incandescent language of the unconscious. The result is a polymorphous work, a frenzy of images, incantations and dialogues with the dead. Under the total control of an imaginary world, Jung describes an extravagant inner journey, a live genealogy of the metamorphoses of the soul, an odyssey of the dead. And even more : a cosmology. As such, what is the RED BOOK thus an account of ? In what way does it represent, as Jung revealed at the end of his life, the nucleus of his lifetime work ? Can a book that is wild and hallucinatory truly engender methodological and therapeutic principles of a psychology of the unconscious ? Does it provide the opportunity to discover the characteristics of a primitive language of the psyche, a language of the “night” ? Is it a sidestep towards the Orient, so as to adapt our approach of the unconscious to the principles of a wisdom or a mystical way ? Does a psychology therefore exist, founded on this analogy, whose principles can irrigate, like a single and only wave, the plains of the Orient and of the Western world ? Does it provide us an invitation to reconstruct an affinity with the practice of divination ? If we try to connect Jung’s empirical science with the cosmogony described by the RED BOOK, would we be able to walk on the ground (the historical roots and epistemological base) of a cosmic psychology ? Is it in fact possible to adjust the traditional concepts of the unconscious to the exhilaration of a primitive and imaginary cosmology ? Would this be the project, to discern and to define, that underpins a cosmology of the unconscious ?

Full textThe purpose of this research is to broaden the understanding of how the experience of fatherhood is taking place at the present time, using a Jungian perspective: to find out what the impact of the experience of becoming a father is causing on men\'s developmental process and process of individuation. As a better understanding about the meaning of fatherhood nowadays for men themselves as fathers is searched, we analyse how the paternal archetype is being constellated in contemporary society, according to new modes of feeling and behaviour, aiming at a more favorable approach towards alterity and democratic relationships. After a sociohistoric contextualization, emerges a scenario marked by reformulation in the conceptions of masculine and feminine over the last decades, which interferes on the aggregate level in gender identities and, therefore, on male subjectivity as well, with consequences for the expectations towards the father figure. This is a qualitative research based on individual interviews supported by a semi-directed script of issues and questions. Based on these statements, we observe the representation and the experience of fatherhood in transformation throughout manifestations of fatherhood that differ from the dominant pattern (patriarchal) and characterized by emotional aloofness as a common male trait. Men\'s growing expectation towards greater participation over pregnancy, childbirth and day-to-day care has been identified, as well as explicit emotional involvement. \'Willingness to be a father\' and \'models of father\' were emphasized issues, involving male and paternal affection in transformation. The coexistence of multiple frames of reference along with such diversity, as expressed in behaviours and values, have been demonstrated. This contrasts with old models considered, until now, to be hegemonic. We worked with the hypothesis that the crisis in this area, due to instability generated by this transitory period that disorganizes both emotional and family structures, generates, over medium and long range, development for the individual as well as for society.

Full texthowever, the number of empirical studies discussing these linkages is few. Also, the literature lacks a proper self report measure of courage. With these voids in mind, the aims of the present research are threefold: a) to develop a new scale to measure courage which has been mostly understood in terms of being able to present oneself in a genuine way, perseverance under difficult circumstances, and pursuit of morally right behavior
b) to investigate self related differences in courage within the context of Balanced Integration and Differentiation (BID) Model of self (imamoglu, 2003) and c) to explore the relationship between courage and other proposed related constructs. A set of questionnaires including the Courage Scale, BID Scale (imamoglu, 1998), Battery of Interpersonal Capabilities (Paulhus, &
Martin 1988), Moral Courage Scale (Bronstein et al, 2007), Short Form of Authenticity Scale (imamoglu et al, 2009), Hope Scale (Snyder et al, 1991), and Voice Scale (Van Dyne, &
LePine, 1998) have been administered to 313 university students (182 female, 127 males and 4 not specified). Results suggested that the newly developed Courage Scale had acceptable levels of internal consistency. Also, it showed converging patterns with Moral Courage Scale which is a more specific measure of the concept throughout different analyses. In congruence with the literature, courage was positively correlated with voice behavior and certain personality characteristics such as self-confidence, assertiveness or honesty. Based on the results, it was concluded that people who have balanced and separated-individuated selves (i.e. who had satisfied both individuational and relational needs and who had satisfied only individuational need, respectively) had higher scores of courage than other self types indicating the importance of intrapersonal developmental orientation for courage. However, both individuation and relatedness were powerful predictors of courage in regression analyses. Results involving a proposed model of courage as a latent variable (predicted by the Courage and Moral Courage Scales) indicated that relatedness, individuation and hope predicted courage indirectly through the mediation of authenticity while the latter two variables also predicted it directly. The study contributed to the literature by exploring the role of self on courage for the first time, by specifying various empirical relationships among concepts that are regarded close to courage and by suggesting a model of courage. The results were discussed in terms of limitations and suggestions as well.

This study investigates the psychic transformation that occurs in the process of widowhood for fathers. It focuses on how fathers comprehend the meaning of widowhood and how it can interfere with the individuation process in light of Analytical Psychology. Qualitative interviews were conducted with three widowed men between the ages of 30 to 56. In these interviews, the impact of widowhood on the relationship between the fathers and their children were examined; specifically how their lives changed since the death of their wives/mothers respectively. The mourning process influenced how these fathers function. The results suggest that the typical experience of these fathers is that they are living in extreme conditions, where they are solely responsible for their children. These widowers with children live in different states than other fathers whose wives have not died. These states develop in adverse conditions marked by the absence of a female figure. At the same time, they show potential and opportunities for reconnection with shadow contents that have been neglected and with the anima announcing new ways and possibilities in the individuation process. The understanding of how to be a father in widowhood can be seen as a situation of psychic vulnerability caused by loss, and transformation of the self-image caused by single parenthood. It is an unusual experience that allows the construction of their own ways of being themselves and with their children
O presente estudo teve como objetivo investigar as transformações psíquicas ocorridas no exercício da paternidade no processo de viuvez, bem como compreender os significados da viuvez para o homem que é pai e como ela pode interferir no processo de individuação, à luz da Psicologia Analítica. A partir das entrevistas de natureza qualitativa e desenhos realizados com três participantes adultos, com idade entre 30 e 56 anos, foram retratadas as condições de relacionamento com os filhos e a viuvez e as particularidades das características valorizadas para a nova vivência que se impõe, a paternidade singular. As condições enfrentadas pelo processo de luto influenciam a constituição do homem como pai e o desenvolvimento de seu modo de agir e exercer a função paterna. Os resultados sugerem que as experiências típicas da paternidade são vividas em condições extremas, onde ele é o único responsável pelos filhos. Estes pais viúvos vivenciam estados diferenciados dos comumente vividos e se desenvolvem em condições adversas, marcadas pela ausência da companheira e da figura feminina. Ao mesmo tempo, demonstram potencialidades a serem descobertas e oportunidades de reconexão com conteúdos sombrios, até o momento negligenciados e com a anima, anunciando novos caminhos e novas possibilidades em seu processo de individuação. A compreensão do modo de ser pai na viuvez, pode ser vista como situação de vulnerabilidade psíquica ocasionada pela perda, e de transformação da autoimagem ocasionada pela paternidade singular. Trata-se de uma experiência inusual, que permite a construção de modos próprios de ser consigo mesmo e com os filhos

This study aimed at exploring the possible relationship between late motherhood and women‟s individuation process, in the light of Analytical Psychology. It is justified given the fact that the Western world has observed an increase in the proportion of women who become mothers after the age of thirty-five, period theoretically characterized by a review of one's own identity and life goals. However, even though this appears to be an issue now posed as a challenge to society, there is a dearth of research that attempt to understand the possible impact of late motherhood in the construction of woman‟s identity. A case study was conducted based on the motherhood experience of ten women who had their first child after the age of thirty-five. Through in-depth interviews we sought to capture the participants' views of their own development process. Responses were consolidated into categories, in order to identify commonalities in the developmental path of these women before and after the event of motherhood. The results showed that, when they became mothers, those women, who before had valued above all their autonomy, have apparently acquired a different and broader perspective about themselves and about others. We conclude that in such cases motherhood seems not only to have been simultaneous with a time of reviewing the meaning of life, but also to have favored an expansion of consciousness through the integration of aspects associated with acceptance of others and appreciation of the world of relationships, thus contributing to the individuation process
Este trabalho visou investigar, à luz da Psicologia Analítica, as possíveis relações entre a maternidade tardia e o processo de individuação feminina. Este estudo se justifica uma vez que tem sido observado o aumento da proporção de mulheres que se tornam mães após os trinta e cinco anos, em um momento, em geral, marcado pela revisão da própria identidade e dos objetivos de vida. Contudo, ainda que essa pareça ser uma questão posta como desafio para as sociedades ocidentais, há uma carência de pesquisas voltadas aos possíveis impactos da maternidade em idade avançada na construção da identidade feminina. A pesquisa constituiu-se de estudo de caso com base em depoimentos de mulheres que tiveram seu primeiro filho após os trinta e cinco anos. Por meio de entrevistas com dez participantes, procurou-se capturar a vivência feminina do próprio processo de desenvolvimento. As respostas foram consolidadas em categorias, para a identificação de aspectos comuns na trajetória de desenvolvimento dessas mulheres, antes e após o evento da maternidade. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que ter filhos propiciou que as participantes mulheres que, antes, valorizavam acima de tudo a própria autonomia adquirissem uma perspectiva diferente e mais abrangente a seu próprio respeito e a respeito das demais pessoas. Concluímos que, nesses casos, a maternidade parece ter sido não somente consonante com um momento de revisão do sentido da vida, mas, também, ter colaborado para uma ampliação da consciência por meio da integração de aspectos associados à aceitação do outro e à valorização do mundo dos relacionamentos, contribuindo para o processo de individuação
