Book Club Discussion: “Moving Toward the Millionth Circle” (Rescheduled to September 7)
2025-09-07 16:00 - 17:30 (America/New_York)
SEPTEMBER 7, 2025 and every 2 weeks thereafter until done. Zoom only.
This has been a time of so much energy with people having so many plans and activities that we have decided to postpone Book Club until the end of summer. So, instead of starting with our next book on July 6, we are waiting until September 7, 2025. So, enjoy the summer and join us on September 7th as we explore “Moving Toward the Millionth Circle” with Board member and licensed art therapist Maggi Colwell.
A link will be sent out prior to the September Book Club.
Starting September 7, 2025, Maggi Colwell will be leading us in a discussion of Jean Shinoda Bolen’s Book, “Moving Toward the Millionth Circle”; a spiritual book for women that serves as a practical and poetic call to action, inspiring woman and others to follow a path with soul. The premise of the book is that it is through the process of a growing number of people changing their perceptions and behaviors that a new era will begin. Those in these circles feed the activism by strengthening each other and, in turn, the movement as a whole.
The Book Club Discussion series is always free, but you do need to register in order that we can send you the link. Please scroll below to register (RSVP).

Course Description
Early development is adversely affected by disruptions in the empathic attunement on the part of caregivers. A lack of adequate of parental mirroring creates a tendency toward inflationary or deflationary self-experience. This, in turn, can result in defensive patterns and resistance to depth work. Moving toward healthier patterns requires confrontation with the shadow and an encounter with the Self as the transpersonal center of meaning. In approaching this work, Jungian analyst, Mario Jacoby, incorporates insights from Heinz Kohut’s Self-Psychology along with standard Jungian practice. He offers reflections on clinical material that illustrate how patients can be supported through the analytic process by emphasizing empathic attunement in addition to working with complexes and the archetypal dimensions of the psyche. The analyst must learn to serve, in balance with standard Jungian practices, as an attuned, empathetic self-object in helping to stabilize the patient’s ego. This, in turn, supports the patient adequately enough to tolerate the anxieties of the deep inner work required for personal transformation.
Text: Jacoby, Mario. (1985). Individuation and Narcissism: The Psychology of Self in Jung and Kohut. New York: Routledge.
Learning Objectives
Participants will be able to:

Develop the ability to articulate how Jung’s teleological model and Kohut’s developmental model can be synthesized in addressing narcissistic pathology.
Recognize clinical manifestations of narcissism in clinical material (transference, dreams, etc.), their roots in early childhood trauma, and their significance for shaping the therapeutic approach.
Apply Jacoby’s integrative model in conceptualizing the therapist’s role in approaching ego integration and connection to the Self.
Discern genuine individuation from narcissistic inflation using symbolic, developmental, and relational material.

We are very excited that this year’s Conference will focus on the outer world of AI and how it impacts us on our inner world journey.
For the past twenty-five years, Glen Slater, Ph.D. has been a member of the core faculty at Pacifica Graduate Institute, where he is currently the Associate Chair of its Jungian and Archetypal Psychology Program. He is the author of Jung vs Borg: Finding the Deeply Human in a Posthuman Age (2024), editor of the third volume of James Hillman’s Uniform Edition, Senex and Puer (2005), co-editor of the essay collection, Varieties of Mythic Experience (2007). He has also written numerous articles and book chapters for Jungian publications. His research and writing interests concern Jung and film, the psychology of religion, and depth psychology and technology.
Dr. Slater will present a morning lecture titled “Jung, AI and Psychological Integrity” followed by an afternoon workshop titled “Jung’s Myth of Consciousness in the Digital Age.” The conference qualifies for 5.5 continuing education units.
There will be a one-hour lunch break, and we have access to both a large refrigerator as well as a microwave so please feel free to bring a lunch (with your name on it). There are also lunch places in the area.
Lecture: Jung, AI and Psychological Integrity.
Description: In my recent book, Jung vs Borg: Finding the Deeply Human in a Posthuman Age, I discuss how the integrity of the human psyche is colliding with our adaptation to digital technology. I contend that a collapse of inner ecology has begun to follow that of outer ecology. This collapse concerns radical changes to human thought processes and a detrimental separation from the deeper ground of existence. Alongside the many benefits of information technologies and online life, a number of psycho-social problems are implicated in this underlying fragmentation. These problems include an omnipresence of disinformation, blurring lines between the actual and the virtual, and epidemics of anxiety, depression and loneliness. Even in the face of such trends, many futurists are advocating for a merger of human and artificial intelligence. In this presentation I will turn to C. G. Jung’s understanding of archetypal patterns and psychodynamics to engage these matters. A focus will be on the contrast between the integrative experiences Jung emphasized and the dissociative style of consciousness that pervades today’s digital lifestyle. We will thereby explore the way Jung’s psychology offers a critical counterpoint to the preoccupation with the present and future technologies.
Workshop: Jung’s Myth of Consciousness in the Digital Age
Description: C.G. Jung understood that psychological wellbeing rests on having a story or “myth” that conveys the meaning and purpose of existence. Along these lines, both Jung and his followers have contended that “the creation of consciousness” (Edinger) is a fitting myth for our time, joining the personal and collective significance of the individuation process. At this cultural-historical juncture, as information expands and wisdom contracts, this vision of making the unconscious more conscious may have found its ultimate purpose. With the meeting of information technology and biotechnology, the power to reshape the world is turning into the power to reshape ourselves. But can we wield this power in conscious ways, or will we reengineer human nature before we understand it? This workshop will consider our habits of mind in the digital age, the differences between consciousness and intelligence, the re-enchantment of ways of knowing, and the redemptive prospect of a more co-creative way forward—one that taps the wisdom of the psyche and accounts for the fullness and depth of our humanity.
Maggi Colwell, JACO Board Member and Art Therapist, interviewed Dr. Slater about the program he will be presenting. To see the interview, click here.
To learn more about Dr. Slater and his thought process, you may want to look into his recent book, “Jung vs. Borg: Finding the Deeply Human in a Posthuman Age.”[1] In addition, we are including here links to 4 articles

2. Re-Sink the Titanic
3. J Analytical Psychology – 2024 – Slattery – Slater Glen Jung vs Borg Finding the Deeply Human in a Posthuman Age
4. A New Global Crisis
In critiquing Dr. Slater’s book, Donald Kalshed stated: “Many years ago C. G. Jung warned us that without an ‘imagination for evil’ we modern human beings were in danger of becoming instruments of the very evil we abhor. Glen Slater’s brilliant and passionate analysis of online culture and its insidious seductions of hyperreality, virtual companions, and cyber presences—all run by artificial intelligence—opens up that imagination in ways that are both terrifying and illuminating. To become conscious of these dehumanizing forces in our midst and how to combat their dissociative effects on the inner life of the soul should be a major focus of all depth psychological training in the 21st century. I cannot emphasize strongly enough the importance of this book.”

2026 Tarot Workshops
2026-01-06 19:00 - 2026-02-03 21:00
We are very excited to announce that, for the fourth year, JudyAnne Morse will be back with us in 2026 to explore the world of Tarot.
While Jung did not write specifically about Tarot, he did recommend working with archetypes. As such, the Tarot can be seen as a path that leads us through the process of individuation of which Jung spoke i.e., a process of becoming aware of one’s self, one’s make-up, and the way to discover one’s true inner self. Tarot, when used as a sacred oracle and a focus for meditation and spiritual work, becomes a perfect tool to assist us in the individuation process.
2026 is the Year of the Wheel of Fortune (10). It is also governed by the Magician (1). As archetypes, the Wheel is fate/destiny; the Magician is the animus (masculine energy)/trickster. As symbols, the Wheel reflects cycles and change; the Magician reflects magic and power.
JudyAnne will be presenting 3 workshops on Zoom:

January 6, 7:00 pm-9:00 pm. Annual Draw (all levels). This workshop will focus on what it means to say that 2026 is a year governed by the Wheel of Fortune and the Magician. JudyAnne will then guide the participants through a draw for each month with a focused question for each month.

2. January 20, 7:00 pm-9:00 pm. Introduction to Tarot 101 (beginner level). This workshop will focus on the basic structure of a Tarot deck including the concepts of Major and Minor Arcana (including the Court cards), the suits, imagery, and basic terminology. Participants will also find their Soul and Personality cards as well as go through a basic reading.
3. February 3, 7:00 pm-9:00 pm. Introduction to Kabbalah and Tarot (intermediate level). This workshop is designed for people with a good understanding of Tarot and are curious about how it is connected to Kaballah. The class will include a discussion of some of the basic concepts of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life and how these relate to Tarot. You do not need to have a Kabbalistic Tarot deck to attend this program. However, if you are interested, JudyAnne’s favorite Kabbalistic Tarot deck is “Tarot of the Spirit” by Pamela Eakins.
All workshops also include pdf documents packed with images and information. And, if you have ever attended one of JudyAnne’s classes, you know just how valuable these documents are.
JudyAnne is a graduate of the Pacific Mystery School, a certified teacher of Kabbalah and Tarot in the Western Mystery School, and a published poet. In addition, she has recently published an oracle deck, “The Remembering Tree” (available on MakePlayingCards.com), a guidebook to the deck, “The Remembering Tree Oracle, Awakening the Hidden Paths of the Tree of Life,” and a book, “The Living Tree of Life: From Crown to Kingdom, A Kabbalistic Journey of Contemplative Prayer” (both available on Amazon).

JACO Book Club: Erin Morgenstern’s "The Night Circus"
2026-01-11 16:00 - 17:30
Starting January 11, 2026
4:00 p.m.-5:30 p.m. EST
Zoom Only
What a great way to start off the New Year. Mike Schaefer introduces the book he wants to explore this way—As our world seems awash in shallowness, heaviness, and dissociation, we often struggle to find ways to respond when things become so one-sided. Something is missing, hidden in the shadows cast by the prevalent forces at work. This year, JACO will be exploring the notion of deep playful engagement. This may be the balm we need to heal this lopsidedness. In this spirit, our next book club selection is Erin Morgenstern’s “The Night Circus”; a book that is both playful and deep and a wonderful catalyst for engagement for a community like ours.

Rescheduled from Feb 7 to Feb 21 - Saturday Conversations: The Four Faces of the Jung Association
2026-02-21 10:00 - 12:00 | First Community, 1320 Cambridge Blvd., Columbus, Ohio 43212
Saturday February 21
10 am to noon
In-Person Only
Our February 21st Saturday Conversation, the 4 Faces of Jung, has a lot of energy. We have again needed to move the location. Please join us at the Library at First Community, 1320 Cambridge Blvd. With all of the changes (date and location), it should be a great event! Please join us for coffee, snacks, and good conversation!
This is a free program, but we would appreciate it if you would RSVP below so we can plan accordingly.
The Jung Association of Central Ohio presents many faces to our public. We engage with depth psychology and Jungian theory, support artistic expression and appreciation, and explore archetypal themes in dreams, film, and literature. We know that engaging Jung’s thought can help make sense of an increasingly chaotic world, and engaging with each other facilitates each individual’s path toward meaning and wholeness. Our members have benefitted from the deepened experience of self that emerges during the individuation process. So where do we find ourselves now and what are our next steps?
To explore this we invite all members, and especially Newcomers. No background in Jungian theory is needed. Together, we will participate in a facilitated exploration of the many faces of the Jung Association. We will use Jung’s four functions—thinking, feeling, sensing, and intuition—as a framework for understanding and communicating who we are becoming and the direction we are traveling.

“What if peace is not merely a simple, uncomplicated state, but a richly layered and living archetype moving through, and expressing itself differently across the personal and collective psyche?”
Please join us on March 14, 2026, to explore this question posed by Michelle Rivera-Clonch, a peace-centered depth psychologist whose career spans leadership roles in higher education, the professoriate, and the non-profit sector. Her recent publications include the 2023 Routledge book “A Depth Psychological Study of the Peace Symbol: Jung, Culture & Politics.”
Dr. Rivera-Clonch will help us explore peace as a multifaceted psychological process—one shaped by archetype, shadow, symbol, and Kairos. By tracing conditions that prompt peace and defenses that frustrate it, we will seek to discover the mythic pattern that underlies the human longing for peacetime.
This program promises to touch each of us in a very special way as we move through these turbulent times.

BOOK CLUB: Man & His Symbols, The Process of Individuation
2026-04-26 16:00 - 17:30
Starting April 26, 2026 (and every 2 weeks thereafter until done)

4:00 pm – 5:30 pm

By Zoom only
We will begin our journey of “The Process of Individuation,” Chapter 3 of Jung’s Book “Man & His Symbols.” There is much to ponder in this chapter and so we will have several “leaders” to take us through Dr. Marie Louise von Franz’s Path to Individuation.
As stated in the Introduction of the book, “Dr. Franz … describes the process by which the conscious and the unconscious within an individual learn to know, respect, and accommodate one another. In a certain sense, this chapter contains not only the crux of the whole book, but perhaps the essence of Jung’s philosophy of life. Man becomes whole, integrated, calm, fertile, and happy when (and only when) the process of individuation is complete, when the conscious and the unconscious have learned to live at peace and to complement one another.” Man & His Symbols, p.14.

Join artist and JACO Board member Alissa Ohashi on July 26th for a focused three-hour exploration of the Make Room process, where image, symbol, and intuition become pathways to self-discovery. Synchronistically, July 26 is also C.G. Jung’s birthday. We’ll celebrate his enduring legacy by engaging one of the practices at the heart of his work: listening to the psyche through image, symbol, and creative expression. Drawing from depth psychology and the creative practice of collage, this workshop invites participants to engage with images in a way that de-centers the analytical mind and opens a dialogue with the deeper layers of the psyche. Through cutting, layering,
arranging, and assembling found images, we’ll explore what emerges when we follow curiosity and allow symbols to guide the way. No artistic experience is necessary; only a willingness to explore, experiment, and
create. Collage offers a unique opportunity to discover unexpected connections,uncover personal meaning, and give form to what may be seeking expression. Whether you’re interested in Jungian psychology, creative practice, or simply spending an afternoon immersed in images and imagination, this workshop offers a welcoming space for reflection, insight, and discovery. Come make room for what wants to emerge.
Alissa Ohashi is an interdisciplinary artist and facilitator working across photography, collage, sculpture, performance, and installation. Her practice explores the relationship between individual parts and the emergent whole, engages with processes of integration and transformation, and considers identity, memory, and their role within collective meaning-making. In addition to her studio practice, Ohashi facilitates workshops at the intersection of art, psychology, and esoteric traditions, creating spaces for embodied inquiry, imaginal engagement, and psychic exploration. She has recently served as Arts in the Parks Coordinator with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and the Ohio Arts Council, where she developed statewide public art programming, and currently serves as a member of the board for the Jung Association of Central Ohio. Ohashi holds a Master of Fine Arts degree from Columbus College of Art & Design and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Strategic Communication from Ohio State University. She recently received a graduate certificate for Depth Psychology in the 21st Century from Pacifica Graduate Institute. She is a 2025 Greater Columbus Arts Council Artist Projects grant recipient and has exhibited her work nationally and internationally.
