Jung on the Hudson Seminar Series
"Our Evolving Myths:
Recreating Ourselves and the World"
August 4-5
Evolving Archetypes: Obama as a Symbol
President Obama is an example of an evolving
archetype, symbolized by
his identity as a mother’s
son, in a partnership marriage, and
as a father concerned
with the well-being of daughters.
His election could symbolize
the emergence of the suppressed feminine
and dark other
into the collective and individual psyche.
He is a manly
man, who exemplifies feminine values of reconciliation,
interdependency, collaboration and communication.
He comes
into prominence at a time of crisis, with global warming
and a global financial crisis, mythologically at the end
of the
Mayan Calendar and the end of a 28,000 year Hindu
cycle (both in 2012),
during the Aquarian Age and with 21st
Century technology.
Jean Bolen’s speculations and observations
have as much to do
with each of us as it has to do with
the first family.
The archetype of the community activist
is stirring in all of us
who want to make our world better
for having been here.
There will be much food for thought
and reflections on change
and what it means to be living
our personal myth.
