“who looks outside, dreams;

 who looks inside, awakes.”   

                                   -Carl Jung

Carl Jung, a pioneering Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, is renowned for his profound contributions to the field of psychology. He developed influential theories on the collective unconscious, archetypes, and the process of individuation, which have had a lasting impact on both academic psychology and broader cultural discourse. Jung's exploration of dreams, symbols, and the deeper layers of the human psyche continues to inspire scholars and practitioners alike, shaping modern understandings of the unconscious mind and personal development.

OUR SOCIETY

Founded in 1985, the C.G. Jung Society of Victoria is a non-profit charitable society that aims to provide an informal and welcoming forum for the presentation and exploration of Analytical Psychology as it originated with Jung and was developed further by those who are trained in its methods.

We do this by bringing our community together in the following ways:

  • Workshops & Seminars

    We have the privilege of hosting esteemed and emerging voices within the Jungian community to come forward and share their knowledge and research with members in the form of online talks, workshops, and in-person seminars.

  • Discussion Groups

    These member-led groups are free to attend, and don’t require a membership to participate. From synchronicity to the poetry of Mary Oliver, we have a wide array of stimulating Jungian topics to explore, and are always open to hearing new group proposals.

  • The Library

    Perhaps the most cherished aspect of our humble community, and the biggest perk of becoming a member—our library boasts over one thousand titles related to topics of depth psychology and adjacent areas of study, including multiple copies of the fully illustrated Red Book.

“The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.”

- C.G Jung
