C G Jung Society
Western Australia
From early on in his life, Jung recognised two distinct personalities within himself.
No 1 was involved in the every day ordinary world, was rational and ambitious, studied science and wanted civilised prestigious life.
No 2 connected with the experience at the age of three, sitting on a granite stone and feeling something eternal in the stone, that was also in him. This side held meaning and connection.
Jung struggled most of his life with the conflict between these two personalities. He became attracted to psychiatry while studying medicine when he read in a book by Kraffe Ebbing that psychiatry is subjective and the psychiatrist responds with his own personality. He felt his two personalities could connect in psychiatry.
"Here at last was a place where the collision of nature and spirit became a reality"

President’s welcome for 2023
Dear Members and Friends,
On behalf of the committee and myself I welcome you all to the 2023 season of events.
We on the committee – Vice President Lorenz Gude, Treasurer Vince O’Sullivan, Secretary Vivien Bainbridge, and committee members Susan Thorman, Jan Rodda and Debbie Paulik Ford and our librarian Olive Mason- are looking forward to our first full year in the new venue at Cottesloe Civic Centre.
This beautiful old building feels like a perfect fit for us going forward. We have also invested in good quality Audio Visual equipment (thank you Lorenz) so that we can be sure our equipment matches the high quality of our speakers.
We look forward to you joining us! As always, we will serve tea and coffee and cake before each event. Don’t forget our new start time of 7:00 pm.See you there.
Sincerely, Brittain Garrett President 2023 CG Jung Society of WA
