Welcome or Welcome Back!
Beginning in 2007. Journey Conferences has focused on the
spiritual dimension of the psychology of C.G. Jung. His work began with his own
experience of Christianity and broadened and deepened in a way that continues to
be useful to those from all spiritual backgrounds.
Jung's own pilgrimage demonstrated a psychological and spiritual pattern that
can help each of us grow in our understanding and experience of our own unique
spiritual nature so that we each might become our "true self -- the fulfillment
of the seed planted in us at our making." [Appleton]
Still and especially today, psychology rooted in Jung's work provides a
foundation for a deepening understanding of the human experience of the Divine;
of ourselves individually and collectively; and of the human's relation to the
natural world.
Our focus in 2007 was on exploring and furthering that conversation and it has
not changed. With the annual Conferences in North Carolina, those ready for this
deepening adventure responded. Many, who attended throughout the years,
discovered themselves delighted and surprised by meaningful revelations, by
unforeseen opportunities for personal transformation and by remarkable kinship
and community.
After our 2014 conference, we actively explored the way forward. We wanted more
and more people to have these growth opportunities that benefited us so much. It
seems that to share the Journey experience more broadly, NOW is time to plant
new seeds for the future, not necessarily with National Conferences in NC, but
perhaps with many initiatives scattered wherever there is good soil -- events
originating more locally to those who wish to see them happen. This will make it
possible for you and others interested in this mission to begin something that
can aid your own community in moving psychologically and spiritually toward
wholeness for a hopeful future.
To that end, with the help of our sponsor, The Seeds for Jubilee Foundation, we
are actively seeking partners who feel called to host such experiences based in
their own region, state, city or town that likewise "explore and further the
conversation of Christianity and other faiths with psychology rooted in the work
of C.G. Jung."
If this resonates with you and at least a couple of others, and you want to
plan. develop and host your own such Jungian event-- could be of a one day
duration; or two days; or more, The Seeds for Jubilee Foundation may be able to
help you call together your own Journey-like community. We can help you with
your fundraising; maybe even some start-up funding; your website for providing
information about the event; registration and accounting support and any desired
consultation you may need to have a successful first event. We want to take some
heavy weight off your shoulders in order to make it more easily doable for you!
Jung said: "The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are." If this
opportunity will help you become more "who you truly are," then, please feel
free to contact us through our website email, so we can be in touch with you to
discuss how we might be of help.
