October Newsletter: Chiron Publications
Conversations with Jungian Analysts
The use of psychedelics to accomplish breakthroughs in difficult pathologies is now proven. Is it possible for psychedelics to form an adjunct to psychoanalysis in appropriate cases, and if so, where is the fit? Can Jungian Psychoanalysis have a role in establishing the right intention for a psychedelic experience, and to integrate the insights and symbols arising from these agents.
Leslie Stein and Lionel Corbett have edited a book of 17 essays by Jungian Analysts, all of whom have a refined interest in these questions. The book, Psychedelics and Individuation: Essays by Jungian Analysts publishing with Chiron Publications, will be launched at the follow-up conference.
A purpose of the conference is to work toward a protocol to be submitted to the IAAP that offers suggestions on how psychedelics and psychoanalysis can work together. Your attendance, should this be of interest to you, is most welcome.
Registration details are on the conference website. Any questions, please contact Leslie Stein at leslie.stein@sydney.edu.au or Lionel Corbett at lcorbett@pacifica.edu.

The conference aims to bring together scholars, researchers, creatives, and graduate students, offering a unique opportunity to explore the profound connections between alchemy, various knowledge disciplines, and the creative expressions of arts-based research. The event seeks to illuminate how alchemy’s metaphors, symbols, and transformative processes have influenced and continue to influence our understanding of the human psyche and creative expression.
Keynote speaker is renowned Jungian/alchemy scholar and Chiron Publication novelist Susan Rowland.
