The Part of Fortune in Your Individuation Process
Peggy Schick

Sundays, December 8 & 15, 2019
2 to 4 pm
Maine Jung Center, 183 Park Row, Brunswick
Members $40, Non-Members $50

Human psychological behavior and the cosmos share archetypal patterns. It is a phenomenal mystery why this is so, but by understanding these patterns we gain an amazingly helpful set of psychological tools for understanding our own individuation process.

In this astrology workshop, we’ll look specifically at the Part of Fortune, a mathematically derived point of harmony involving the Ascendant, Sun, and Moon. Its placement in the natal chart describes the place of truest expression of the soul. After a review of the archetypal qualities of the astrological signs and houses, and with guidance by the instructor, participants will take turns interpreting their own Part of Fortune placement.

In advance of class, registrants are asked to provide their place of birth, DOB, and their exact time of birth. Registrants will receive a copy of their natal chart in class.

*Some foundational knowledge of astrology is a prerequisite to this class.

Required Text: Projection and Re-Collection in Jungian Psychology by Marie-Louise von Franz

This work is a classic of Jungian literature that at its most basic level provides a map and guide to the recognition and reclaiming of projections. More broadly, this book explores the Jungian foundation to consciousness and the collective unconscious.

The format of the discussion group will be to read one or more Chapters each month prior to the discussion group as shown in the syllabus (see website for more information). Key passages will be read again during the session so that it will be possible to not keep up with the reading, but still participate in a meaningful way in the discussion.

Jeff Pinnette is a longtime member of the Center who served on the Board for six years including two as Board chair and four as Program Committee chair. He is currently serving a new term on the Board as Co-Chair of the Program Committee.

Required Text: Sacred Instructions: Indigenous Wisdom for Living Spirit-Based Change by Sherri Mitchell

The Maine Jung Center is pleased to offer a new book group beginning Wednesday, October 16, that will meet to read and discuss Sherri Mitchell’s 2018 book Sacred Instructions: Indigenous Wisdom for Living Spirit-Based Change. The Center is also excited to announce that Ms. Mitchell will be speaking to our community on April 3-4 in Portland. 

This book discussion experience will serve as an immersion into Mitchell’s profound and loving insight around affecting true global consciousness and change. Sacred Instructions is described as a narrative of Indigenous wisdom that provides a road map for the spirit and a compass of compassion for humanity.

Sherri Mitchell is a Native American attorney, author, teacher and activist from Maine. She has been actively involved with Indigenous land and water rights and the Indigenous way of life in the US, Canada and abroad for more than 25 years. Drawing from ancestral knowledge, as well as her experience as an attorney and activist, in Sacred Instructions Mitchell addresses some of the most crucial issues of our day, such as environmental protection and human rights. Sharing the gifts she has received from elders around the world, Mitchell urges us to decolonize our language and our stories. For those seeking change, this book offers a set of cultural values that will preserve our collective survival for future generations.

This book group will be gently led by Peggy Schick, astrologer, Reiki practitioner, activist, and co-chair of the board of the Maine Jung Center.
