Why Some People Never Grow Up

We continue our series on the Great Minds of Psychology with the work of Marie-Louise Von Franz, who began studying with Carl Jung in high school. Her expansive career and work on dreams, alchemy, Individuation, the Feminine Principle and the Puer Aeternus and Puella Eterna (eternal boy and girl). We explore:

• Why it is never too early to learn about the psyche
• Von Franz’s contributions to psychology, including Dreams and Alchemy, as well as her work with Fairy Tales and archetypes
• Puer Aeternus (Peter Pan Syndrome) and Puella Eterna (eternal girl) and how remaining as a child can stall your life
• How the balance between structure and playfulness is necessary for full self-expression
