Up: [[Journeys]] Course: Inner and Outer Maps with Margaret Klenck for Washington Jung Created: 2024-11-15 Updated: 2025-01-13 - Maps portray outer situations, but they’re made by humans so they also portray and amplify our inner states. - Maps always orient us. - It is not possible to draw a map without a story. In a map, place, time and story are together. - If we didn’t have the capacity to make connections and put ourselves into story — personal, collective, mythological — we could not have Jungian analysis. - Both maps and stories come from memory and preserve memory. They also simultaneously invite the future. - Memory that is both explicit and implicit in maps holds the same place in analysis. - A [[complex]] can be thought of as an inner map. Margaret Klenck gave the example of a woman who treated her family system as her cosmos. She projected out to the world that everyone would respond to her the way her family members did. - “In [[analysis]], the analyst points out patterns, mapping seemingly random points of the psyche to provide a new orientation to time and space.” - “An analytic session always covers a new piece of an analysand’s maps.” - “Dreams map the movement of the ego complex through the landscape of the psyche.” [[Maps Depict the Cosmos and Let Us Locate Ourselves In It]] [[Maps Direct Us from Here to There]] [[Maps Illustrate Specific Events]] [[Maps Define Boundaries]] [[Maps Connect Inner and Outer Experiences]]
