Möglichkeit — Jung, the Present and the Future
In this short reflection, I return to the final page of Jung’s Red Book, where he left a single handwritten word: Möglichkeit. Possibility.
What does it mean to continue dreaming Jung’s work onward, responding to the questions of our own present and future?
I also introduce the newly launched Center of the Cross, an emerging space for dialogue and new encounters between Jungian psychology and Christianity.
