Jungian education & Writing
Supporting the individual journey in a collective, complex world through courses and writing in Analytical Psychology. Demystifying the ideas without diminishing their magic.
In these times, when social disruption and overwhelm are the norm, people are turning towards theology, mythology, and psychologies of the soul for answers.
Jungian psychology is a balm for our times. Born between World War I and World War II, it is a psychology that directly responds to social crises and the search for meaning.
The soul is timeless. Even as chaos roils in the world above ground, a constant, life-restoring aquifer runs underneath, providing information, orientation, and guidance. The unconscious is not just about repression. If we listen, it can offer a wellspring of insight and even revelation.
By exploring ideas like the Shadow, the Collective Unconscious, Synchronicity, the Masculine and Feminine, Persona, the Ego and the Self, Dreamwork and Symbols, we can come to know ourselves more deeply and understand how we can live lives of integrity and soul within a world that very often appears to be lacking both.

The Salome Podcast: C.G. Jung’s Red Book
Jungian scholar and psychotherapist Satya Doyle Byock, and astrologer, Carol Ferris, explore Carl Jung’s magnum opus, The Red Book.
Audio is adapted from the live Sunday salons that began online in March 2020.
Satya & Carol discuss Jung’s vast work chapter by chapter while reflecting on themes ranging from Jungian psychology and the history of depth psychology to the astrological relationship between Jung's time and ours, often emphasizing the feminist, anti-racist, and anti-fascist relevance of this work today.
C.G. Jung’s journey into the unconscious began in 1913, just months before the sudden beginning of World War I. It was this descent, laboriously documented in a large red leather book, that underlies all of Analytical Psychology, also known as Jungian Psychology.
You do not need to be steeped in Jungian Psychology nor in astrology to enjoy these episodes. Satya & Carol make this work socially and personally relevant for people of all backgrounds, even those with little experience with this material.
