“Pretty much everything that currently moves the subject's soul is expressed in the associations.” - C.G. Jung

Within associations Jung saw the elemental structure of consciousness and the reason for dreams and fantasies. With every call, something in the psyche answered, but was it the patient themselves or something else? Jung investigated that and created his academic career that brought him to the attention of one of the leading figures of psychology of the time: Sigmund Freud.

“I had accustomed myself to living always on two planes simultaneously, one consciousness, which attempted to understand and could not, and one unconscious, which wanted to express something and could not formulate it any better than by a dream” - C.G. Jung

This event will be about the basic premises and threads that pop up when Jung is drawn towards a phenomenon or reaches a conclusion.
