From dream interpretation to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator\, from p opular books and mindfulness practices to the stories on our movie screens \, Jung’s influence is woven into our everyday language and imagination.   His ideas are developed straightforwardly in fantasy content\, storytel ling\, alternative spirituality\, self-help and recovery communities.\n\nT his program will explore how Jungian principles surface in surprising ways \, with special attention to three films and their central characters: The Truman Show (1998)\, American Beauty (1999)\, and John Huston’s 1956 ad aptation of Moby Dick. Each provides a powerful lens for understanding sha dow\, archetypes\, individuation\, and the quest for meaning. We’ll also look at the enduring popularity of the Myers-Briggs and its roots in Jung ’s theory of psychological types.\n\nJoin us for a lively\, accessible d iscussion that brings Jung’s insights into focus through the lens of mod ern culture and timeless storytelling.\n\nNote: You do not need to have at tended Part One\, but to feel prepared for the event\, it would be helpful to watch the movies and take the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. \n\n \; ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://i0.wp.com/workingmensinstitute.org/wp-co ntent/uploads/2025/08/Truman-with-Text.jpg?fit=727%2C486&ssl=1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Chicago X-LIC-LOCATION:America/Chicago BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20250309T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0600 TZOFFSETTO:-0500 TZNAME:CDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
