“Not for a moment dare we succumb to the illusion that an archetype can be finally explained and disposed of. Even the best attempts at explanation are only more or less successful translations into another metaphorical language. The most we can do is to dream the myth onwards and give it modern dress. And whatever explanation or interpretation does to it, we do to our own souls as well, with corresponding results for our own well-being.” (CW Vol 9i para 271)
In this workshop we will take up a myth from ancient Ireland known as “The Voyage of Bran,” a story that prefigures Homer’s Odyssey and his account of Odysseus’ exile on the island of Calypso. We will compare and contrast the Hero’s Journey with Bran’s fate and spend time with archetypes such as Enchantment, Exile, Longing, Renewal/Return. Time stands still in both stories. In the realm of the Celtic Imagination the individual must serve out his soul’s desire into eternity.
Learning objectives:
This seminar is designed to help you:
- Identify major archetypes in this Myth.
- Select and differentiate personal complex from collective unconscious with reference to clinical material
