When Carl Jung lay close to death after a heart attack, he had a remarkable series of visions, which he describes in “Memories, Dreams, Reflections” as “the most tremendous things I have ever experienced.”

‘What happens after death is so unspeakably glorious that our imagination and our feelings do not suffice to form even an approximate conception of it’

~ CG Jung (Letters, Vol.1)

Honouring his otherworldly encounters in a scientific world was of great service and solace to those who have similar experiences of visitations from the dead, dreams that preceded death, conversations with deceased, and visions of dying.

Personal accounts of the dying and the dead have instilled in me a deep-seated and silent sense of the undying soul. While our encounters with death and dying are beyond words and explanations, Jung’s confrontations with the unconscious, his visions and dreams honour the image of death as essential to life.

My intention in this presentation is to let the images speak, to let the dead have their voice, to acknowledge the mystery.

‘Perhaps one has to be close to death to acquire the necessary freedom to talk about it.’

~ C G Jung (MDR)

Brian Clark has been in private practice as an astrological consultant and educator for over forty years. His work has always been informed by the ambiguous, yet multi-layered nature of symbols, a focus of one of his books Soul, Symbol and Imagination.

He received his BA (Hons) and MA in Classics and Archaeology from the University of Melbourne.

His passion for mythology and the classics inspired him to guide many tours to the sacred sanctuaries of ancient Greece, particularly those dedicated to healing and divination.
