			Archetypal Astrology and Archetypal Cosmology Mortality, Maturation, and Wisdom: The Archetypal Saturn Keiron Le Grice, with Jay Dufrechou September 16–17, 2017 The Open Center, 22 E. 30th St. New York, NY 10016 Saturday 9am to 5:00pm; Sunday 9am to 4:00pm Price: $275 [*event not affiliated with the Open Center] Registration: Please use the PayPal button below to reserve your place For further information, please contact info@itaspsychology.com
The first of four foundational modules on archetypal astrology, and the first ITAS offering in the US, will explore the place of the planetary archetype Saturn in human life, focusing on its association with the great inevitables that we must all face, including death, time, aging, suffering, solitude, alienation, and fear. We will consider, too, the connections of Saturn to specific Jungian archetypes, the Basic Perinatal Matrices of Grofian psychology, and other principles of depth psychology, focusing especially on Saturn’s role in psychological maturation and the development of wisdom through sustained effort, discipline, and hard experience. Using film clips, music, and text, the lecture presentation by Keiron Le Grice will draw on a range of examples from philosophy, psychology, religion, myth, and the arts to illuminate the range of expressions of Saturn and help you recognize and understand its role in your own life. Over the weekend, you will learn the fundamental techniques and principles needed to work with astrology for yourself, beginning with interpreting astrological birth charts, mediated through a close engagement with your own chart. There will also be opportunities for group discussion and informal conversation with faculty and classmates. Subsequent workshops will focus in turn on Neptune, Pluto, and Uranus. We hope you can join us!
