Anima and AnimusAnima and Animus

18 February 2027 · Core Jungian Concepts

Anima and Animus

This lecture explores Jung's controversial theory of the contrasexual archetypes: the anima and the animus. In his classical formulation, Jung assigns the anima to the male psyche and the animus to the female psyche; accordingly, men do not have an animus, nor women an anima. This set of gendered opposites is now widely regarded as one of the most problematic aspects of Jungian theory. The lecture examines both its limitations and its continuing psychological significance.

Synchronicity and Unconscious Communication

This lecture explores the roots of unconscious communication in early human development and considers how communication occurs before it can be expressed in words. From the earliest relationship between infant and caregiver, states of mind may be communicated and received outside conscious awareness. Psychoanalytic theories of projective identification, affective attunement and the analytic field offer different ways of understanding these processes.

Jungian Approach to Dream Analysis

This lecture compares a Jungian approach to dream analysis with classical psychoanalytic approaches, particularly those of Freud and Klein. Drawing on clinical examples, it explores how their differing theories of the unconscious, symbolism and the aims of analysis lead to markedly different ways of working with dreams.

Group supervision

For CAPS members (D, R, J)

The third space of the work

In Jungian practice, supervision is foundational, not optional. Analysis is a dialectical process between two psyches — the analyst is inevitably affected, and at times destabilised, by contact with the patient's unconscious. Supervision is the third space where what has been stirred, projected, or constellated can be examined.

Group supervision adds what individual supervision cannot: different members resonate with different aspects of a case — one picks up the mother complex, another the unspoken aggression, another a somatic countertransference — and the group itself becomes a container against the isolation of analytic practice.

About analytical psychology

We believe that understanding the psyche begins with exploring the dialogue between the conscious and unconscious. Through symbols, dreams, and reflection, analytical psychology invites us to encounter the deeper patterns that shape human experience and the journey toward individuation.

It has given me the opportunity to deepen my understanding of analytical psychology, exchange ideas and learn alongside like-minded people who share a genuine interest in Jungian thought. I particularly value the openness, depth and sense of community that CAPS fosters.”
Fernanda
“It is rare to find a place to explore Jungian psychology in Singapore. CAPS and its seminars allowed me to deepen my understanding into the unconscious material and bringing it into consciousness to serve everyday life. There is deeper understanding of the psyche when delving into the obscured symbolic meaning layered behind archetypes in dreams, fairy tales, myths and images. It is akin to learning a different language through which the psyche expresses itself.”
Evon Lim
“CAPS offers a rare space to explore Jungian psychology in Singapore. Each lecture invites reflection and dialogue, deepening my understanding of the psyche and its relevance to contemporary life.”
