Dear Colleagues and Friends,
I am pleased to announce that my guest-edited special section on intuitive inquiry has been published by Qualitative Psychology, the APA Division 5 journal devoted to qualitative research. Together, the Introduction and research examples describe the method and its transformational values in sufficient detail for researchers new to intuitive inquiry to employ the method in their research without additional resources, making intuitive inquiry readily available to both transpersonal and mainstream researchers.
In addition, UK researcher Deborah Kelly’s study using “embodied memory theatre in an intuitive inquiry study of therapeutic space for the dying,” was published last spring in the special issue of The Humanistic Psychologist, celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Transpersonal Psychology. This article is available at https://psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?doi=10.1037%2Fhum0000116.
With these publications, intuitive inquiry (and transformative research methods in general) enters a new era of development, bringing transformative research methods to researchers throughout the human sciences. Feel free to distribute the articles at your discretion to colleagues and students. Additional resources are available at http://www.sacredsciencecircle.org/intuitive-inquiry-archive/.
Many colleagues and doctoral students have contributed to intuitive inquiry over the last 20-plus years. I am deeply grateful for their efforts and enthusiasm.

In archetypal transference, the transference does not stem directly from past personal experience, but rather relates to the collective unconscious, archetypal image, or situation that is projected onto the analyst or patient. One such possibility that may appear in the analytic relationship in the form of idealizing transference is rooted in the archetype of the spiritual master-disciple relationship. Literature on Jungian psychology and spiritual traditions from around the world provides the background for this work. In-depth, phenomenologically informed interviews that were conducted with nine senior Jungian analysts are included in this study. The analysts shared their own experiences with archetypal transference and discussed its relevance and effects on the analytic relationship. Through the 5 successive cycles of intuitive inquiry, data was collected, analyzed, and compared with the initial set of interpretive statements on the topic. Results were interpreted and formulated into a theory regarding archetypal transference in Jungian psychoanalysis. The findings suggest that archetypal transference is inevitably present in the analytic relationship even if it is not evident or easy to distinguish from other types of transference and serves the psychological and spiritual growth of both the analyst and patient.

Egyes jungi analitikus szerzők szerint Sigmund Freud mellett Jung munkássága befolyásolta leginkább annak elméletét és gyakorlatát, amit a pszichoanalitikus közösség is egyre szélesebb körben kezd elismerni. A közelmúltban megindult a közeledés a két analitikus nevével jelzett iskolák között. A legújabb trendek, a közös konferenciák tapasztalata, hogy közöttük mégis csak több a hasonlóság, mint a különbség. Deák Zsolt kortárs jungi analitikus írások alapján áttekinti azokat a területeket, ahol Carl Jung munkássága inspirálja és befolyásolja a pszichoanalízist és a mélylélektani pszichoterápiás megközelítés jelenlegi elméletét és klinikai gyakorlatát.

After a short hurray optimism it became clear that the changes are neither good nor bad, not equally for everyone, and do not necessarily mean development. Indeed, now Hungary is about political instability, bleak prospects of the economy, in a deep social and moral crisis. From a Jungian perspective the author proposes that those of the social and political issues can be analyzed and better understood as the results of the cultural complexes rooted in historical and cultural context of the Hungarian development. He employs the emerging theory of cultural complex (Kimbles, S. and Singer, T., 2004) and discusses how the repeated national traumas – are often celebrated as national holiday -; losing independence and long periods of oppression over the centuries became a psychological force in shaping the Hungarian cultural unconscious that is conflicted and confused by the present need of a new identity followed by the change of system. The author also brings examples from the Hungarian myths and fairy tales to illustrate the collective psyche of the group, as well as examples from contemporary artists to channel the individual psyches of members may become impacted.
