FEBRUARY - MARCH 2025
Synchronicity
and the Goddess
of Meaning
with Cynthia Cavalli, Ph.D. and Gary S. Bobroff, M.A.
SYNCHRONICITY
AND THE GODDESS OF MEANING
Jung's recognition of the phenomenon of synchronicity leads us towards an astoundingly deeper view of our world. To sit with the reality of a meaningful event when it hits us is to begin to be led toward a healing experience with the numinous.
In this course, Gary S. Bobroff and Cynthia Cavalli will explore how best to unfold synchronistic experiences, how to observe our over-rationalistic ego objections to their validity and illustrate the difference between a thinking and feeling reception of them.
Held with a view for story and symbol and an appreciation for the special power that authenticity confers, we see a world creating grace and healing; a view shared by the mystics, the alchemists, the Taoists and many indigenous cultures today. If we can overcome the reductionstic worldview of our culture, synchronicity offers the revelation of a world in which meaning is woven into Nature.
We'll look at the history of the modern approach to the phenomenon: including Jung's coining of the term and his pioneering work with physicists Pauli and Einstein. We will introduce our definitions of the archetypal Feminine and Masculine and how they unconsciously influence our worldviews and attitude towards life.
Cynthia will share her understanding of meaning as a feminine principle of organization / order. We’ll explore the scientific evidence for the reality of the psyche as a FIELD phenomenon. We’ll look at the importance of grace and the stories we tell and how very often what seems to be sought is a change in our attitude. You’ll be invited to create a milestone chart of symbolic events in your life.
How can we better house within us the meaning that these events bring? Is every synchronicity a positive indicator? How do we as individuals and collectives get caught up in the shadow numinous? Cynthia will share key themes in life-changing synchronicities and we will consider the role of the numinous in transformation and healing. Finally, we’ll explore the Goddess of Meaning and idea of the Tao as Mother of all things.

“The realization of ‘meaning’ is a living experience that touches the heart just as much as the mind . . . an illumination characterized by great clarity as well as something ineffable – a lightning flash . . . a “quantum leap” in the psyche [it] links us with the numinous – the meaning of the Whole, the Tao [and] puts us once again in our proper place in the Whole.”
– Marie-Louise von Franz
