  • Jung on Astrology
    Jung on Astrology Jung on Astrology brings together C. G. Jung’s thoughts on astrology in a single volume for the fi rst time, signifi cantly adding to our understanding of his work. Jung’s Collected Works , seminars, and letters contain numerous discussions of this ancient divinatory system, and Jung himself used astrological horoscopes as a diagnostic tool in his analytic practice. Understood in terms of his own psychology as a symbolic representation of the archetypes of the collective unconscious, Jung found in astrology a wealth of spiritual and psychological meaning and suggested it represents the “sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity.” The selections and editorial introductions by Safron Rossi and Keiron Le Grice address topics that were of critical importance to Jung – such as the archetypal symbolism in astrology, the precession of the equinoxes and astrological ages, astrology as a form of synchronicity and acausal correspondence, the qualitative nature of time, and the experience of astrological fate – allowing readers to assess astrology’s place within the larger corpus of Jung’s work and its value as a source of symbolic meaning for our time. The book will be of great interest to analytical psychologists, Jungian psy- chotherapists, and academics and students of depth psychology and Jungian and post-Jungian studies, as well as to astrologers and therapists of other orientations, especially transpersonal. Safron Rossi, PhD, is a Professor of mythology and depth psychology in the Jungian and Archetypal Studies specialization at Pacifi ca Graduate Institute, Cali- fornia. For many years she was curator of the Joseph Campbell and James Hillman manuscript collections.

  • The Singing Subject
    OVERTURE: The Singing Subject Hollywood's soundtrack is engendered through a complex system of displacements which locate the male voice at the point of apparent textual origin, while establishing the diegetic containment ofthe female voice. 1 In The Acoustic Mirror, one of the few film theory books that considers the female voice in cinema, psychoanalytic film theorist Kaja Silverman ascribes the female voice a place firmly within the narrative of 'classic' Hollywood (and other realist) films. 2 But as a cinematic spectator, I have experienced films where a woman's singing voice has for me transcended such limitations. My first experience of such a feeling was motivated by Songcatcher (Maggie Greenwald, 2000), a story about a 19th century musicologist, Dr Lily Penleric (Janet McTeer), who travels to the Appalachian Mountains to collect folk ballads. In Songcatcher, the women characters' singing is pleasurable and moving, but also transports me emotionally beyond the narrative.3 Such experiences of singing scenes4 provide for me a feeling that is analogous to, but also different from, the 'transcendence' of numbers in classic Hollywood film musicals.s In the classical musical, singing performances are not only expected, because of the genre, but also assisted by the use of nondiegetic music to lift the musical experience beyond the 'real' world of the narrative to a space that is most often a utopian realm. However, in Songcatcher, singing remains of the diegesis and yet for me reaches beyond the narrative world. I Kaja Silverman. The Acoustic Mirror: The Female Voice in P5ychoanalysis and Cinema.

  • Synchronicity
    Synchronicity August 2, 2019 Synchronicity is an important topic in the physical sciences and in psychology. Pop singer Sting thought it was so fascinating that he wrote two songs about it in an album of the same name. 1When global economies move together, economists refer to it as synchronization. The interconnectedness of communication, supply chains, and (sort of) trade has changed the relationships between economies and made synchronization a popular topic. It is especially important to market participants right now, because one of the biggest concerns is the ongoing moderation in global growth. Each individual country seems more worried about slowdowns in other countries then they are about their own economies. 2It may be that global economies are only synchronized in passing the blame for their problems. Most economists would probably argue that synchronization should be most pronounced on the broadest set of data such as GDP, but that each economy should have its own areas of cyclical strengths and weaknesses based on domestic conditions. Oddly, the opposite seems to be the case now. In this peculiar episode, the details of the economic data in developed markets seem as coordinated as the headline growth. Sure, there are some EM outliers as there always are, but they stand out as anomalies.3 Labor markets are solid around the world. The U.S., Japan, Germany, and China all have unemployment rates that are at or near historic lows. 4Many years ago, some economists created what they called the “misery index,” which added unemployment and inflation. 5Now that could be renamed the joy index.

  • Psych-Out.Pdf
    1 Psych Out by G.Aldrich Version 2.2 / June 18, 2015 2 Chapter 1 Just south of downtown San Francisco, below the tangle of freeways that carve the sky into twisted triangles, in the more humble underbelly of the city, on the corner of Hicks Street and Industrial Alley, a small but determined little hotel stands above the squalor of the surrounding small factories, metal shops, garages, and sheds. Three floors of apartments, above a ground floor with restaurant and bar, make it at least a story above the buildings in its immediate vicinity. Over the doorway, a large, vertical neon sign, which has not worked for 24 years, proclaims it in large block letters to be the "Good Times Hotel." Originally, it had been the Hoover Hotel, but since the name "Hoover" had been repellent to the politics of the owner at the time of the change, who, since he was of French descent, had renamed it "L'hôtel du Bon Temps," which means "The Good Weather Hotel." A later owner, inadequately schooled in French, had altered it to "The Good Times Hotel." The weather, although temperate, was not its major drawing card, so the idea of having a good time was much more attractive. Besides, the denizens of the bar and restaurant below had no greater knowledge of French, and accepted the altered name, although a few had grudgingly favored the foreign sound of the old one. At any rate, these changes had occurred during the first two decades of the hotel's existence, and all memory of them had been forgotten.
