THE CARL JUNG CIRCLE CENTER

Ano ang kalooban natin? Sino tayo? What is our Filipino soul?

Who are we? Drawing from the psychology of Carl Jung, the play presents the living spirit of our cultural archetypes*:  the Navigator-Wanderer, the Warrior, the Child of Eden, to name a few. The creation of this play was given impetus by the combustion of energies of Sonia Roco, the late Sebastian “Choncho” Sanchez, Ruby Villavicencio Paurom, and Mila Lagrosa in the birthing place of Sonia’s van (as they would ride together to attend a Jung Conference), and eventually in Sonia’s residence lounge table. The original music, composed by Franklee Garcia Lorenzo, Lyrics by Michael Coroza, and script by Ruby Villavicencio Paurom, was inspired by personal stories of individuals who identified with these archetypes.  The stories shared for the play are real and deep. The play starts with Psyche, called by the Filipinos to visit and stage a play, aided by the Greek chorus whom she brings with her.  She meets Hannah, who symbolizes the Filipino, and together they watch the cultural archetypes unfold in their presence. Wounding happens, and the spirit of the archetypes change.  Their original nature is no longer lived out, and they become less of themselves. The process of healing begins when the archetypal forces of the Artist, the Mystic and the Healer are brought forth to integrate with Hannah for the soulful transformation that unites everyone.  *Reflection Paper of Rose Marie Yenko, 2005 copyright

This play is dedicated to our

countrymen

In my recollection this was how it all began….. It was December 7, 2016, the First Jung Certificate Course was completed. Participants presented their final opus – individuation projects were soulful, mind blowing, creative. Overall mood was high, connections intimate, the sense of community,

palpable. The following morning, December 8, during our planning session, Sonia and Marisa accepted the call to create a musical. It was over a sumptuous lunch at the Field of Faith, Carissa Singson’s beautiful retreat haven, that the imagination of the musical took flight. At our table consisting of Sonia, Choncho, Edlyn, Mila, Ruby and I were high and giddy. We’d burst into song and collapse in laughter, each one promising to outdo the other in the next burst of energy. Then there was a thought – we are to do this??? DO what? How? By the end of the day there was a target to do this by mid 2017 and a promise to meet to discuss the details at a later date. Fast forward - by March 2017, a group: Sonia, Mila, Choncho, Marisa, Ruby were meeting regularly at Sonia’s home. What do we do? How do we do it? In the one meeting I attended, the idea to use Rose Yenko’s Gifts in the Filipino Psyche as framework for the musical captured the imagination. Yes! Why not? Finally, came June 12, 2018 – Filipino Independence Day – CJCC first staged “Halo Halo Tayo: The Colorful & Deliciously Complex Filipino Soul.” A concerted opus, dedicated to Jung, Rose, Choncho and all CJCC community whose souls resonate with the theme.

Then again today, there is no stopping. The core group now made up of Sonia, Nathan, Mila, Ruby, Edlyn, and Oliver. Ruby made the script, Franklee for the music, Mike Coroza for the beautiful lyrics, Sonia as the director with Nathan as assistant director. Thank you and Congratulations to the gifted creators of “Halo Halo Tayo”, and our supportive, appreciative CJCC community.

Peace and more blessings accompany the journey.

Dear friends,

The Carl Jung Circle Center (CJCC) welcomes you to our musical, Halo Halo Tayo! At CJCC we are fellow soul travellers. Here we play, laugh, study, do our art, share our dreams and ideas; sometimes inane, ofen times deep, many times both serious and funny.

This musical comes form a deep love of our country and our people. It started as a dream. From a “what if” it became a, “why not” We take pride in being Filipinos. We also bleed at the adjustments and compromises we had to make. Let this night open your eyes to who you are and who you can be. May we all recognize the beauty of the Filipino soul and discover the gold inside us.

Welcome all and Mabuhay!

Sonia M. Roco• Vice-President, CJCC• Halo-Halo Tayo Director

The Carl Jung Circle Center (CJCC) had its maiden show of this Jungian inspired creative work entitled “Halo Halo Tayo: The Delicious and Colorfully complex Filipino Soul” last June 12, 2018, during the 120th anniversary of our Philippine Independence.

Being privileged to be with HHT from conception to its presentation, I can’t help but remember those days of my conceiving with a life growing in my womb and after 9 months giving birth to a 6-lb baby in the flesh with a unique and perfect soul, an awesome miracle indeed.

Halo Halo in a way could be likened to this creative process. HHT has the whole CJCC as its parents, a community play conceived in Feb of 2017 and ready for birthing and independence on June 12 of 2018.

The 9 gifts of the Filipino based on a concept paper written by Dr. Rose Yenko was the framework we used. Personal stories representing the archetypes were shared and written for stage by Ruby Paurom. Franklee Garcia Lorenzo composed music, and poet Michael Coroza for the lyrics.

I feel very enriched by this whole process of developing the creative imagination and directing its stage presentation not only because of its artistic expression but because the play will enlighten and engage you, the audience in understanding the depths of your own Filipino soul as it has done for all of us, who conceived, and carried all of it through birthing pains, till its perfect soul of gold is claimed and experienced by every Filipino.

Be delighted! Be inspired! Be blessed! As you journey with our community play: Halo Halo Tayo: The Delicious and Colorfully

Complex Filipino Soul!

Ruby Villavicencio-Paurom• CJCC• Halo-Halo Playwright

Mind Whispers and the Halo-Halo Tayo ScriptBy Ruby Villavicencio Paurom

The writing of Halo-Halo Tayo is an experience of listening to the wind.

To recount this, I may need to tell the story of how a communications person, a former journalist who's now into public relations consulting, got into the Carl Jung Circle Center.

It's not a long story. Turning 60 years old, we know now that life is short, and, at best, simple. But to dwell on the complexity of our soul? That's an entirely different story.

About 18 years ago, I was three months pregnant with my seventh son when I enrolled in a summer course on Jungian Psychology at the Ateneo. We certainly acknowledge motherhood as vital. But at that time, an inner voice prompted me to give space for reflection, to touch base with one's self, and explore, again, other colors of my person that may be calling for attention.

I only meant to check out about other colors but the course opened up to a rainbow of delightful discoveries helpful in daily living. I attended more workshops on Jungian psychology, thrilled and reinforced by the "A-ha!" moments that lent insights on how to enhance special relationships, to understand recurring behavior patterns in one's life and in the communities we wrote about, and to recognize powerful whiffs of the unconscious.

By 2016, I was already clamoring for intensive studies. The CJCC had just nested in a beautiful office-cum-library in the metropolitan hub, on 123 Pioneer Street in Mandaluyong City, and one of CJCC's major offering was a Certificate Course on Archetypal Jungian Psychology. I was an excited enrollee.

The course required a "soul project" which could be a painting, a dance, an animation or anything similar that reflected our personal journey and which showed transformation arising from the lessons. I did a stand up comic act and wrote a script for a make-believe Ellen de Generes who described her course travails. I closed the act with songs that stayed long in my reveries in cathartic moments. I later found out that most of my classmates did not remember the lines but remembered how I surprised 10

them with my get-up -- black boots, tight jeans and black leather jacket, and, perhaps, most of all, the gall of presenting such. Speaking of the medium being the message, here's a good example.

In a sense, the writing of Halo-Halo was a continuation of my soul project. I had been thinking about scriptwriting as possible creative work to embark on by one who is moving onto her 60ish years.

Life was showing the "synchronicity" principle in Carl Jung's works. I found myself doing one thing that was at first only a germ in my head. I was writing a full-length play with original music, a wish for CJCC that was voiced out by Rose Marie Yenko, CJCC co-founder, to Sonia Roco, CJCC director, who has a superb theater and musical background. It was timely that Sonia had the Budbud Kabud to brainstorm with on the play.

Budbud Kabud is how we call our group of four CJCC friends who live close to each other in Loyola Heights, Quezon CIty. We engaged in thought-provoking discussions in Sonia'a van, traveling from Katipunan Avenue to meetings and the Jung conference, "Our Psyche, Our Earth", and back home. Budbud Kabud also includes the late Sebastian "Choncho" Sanchez Jr., organizational development expert Milagros Lagrosa and myself. Kabud came from the French word boudoir, inspired by Choncho's fond reference of our space -- "the womb in the van".

Brainstorming on the play, we concluded that the Filipino was like "halo-halo", with his varying and distinctive attributes. We spoke of Filipino leaders who shine in overseas communities which seem fated to splinter into dissenting, later rivalling, organizations. We thought perhaps we are not inclined to thrive with highly linear modes of generating cooperation. We threw in observations about ourselves that seem to echo from all over the world with the Filipino diaspora. We all have our notions of what it is to be Pinoy. And then, by virtue of the strength of our laughter, we declared as common those we agreed on wholeheartedly. We spoke of our journey in re-claiming ourselves as Filipinos. The sessions were enjoyable and often ended with tasty meals presented with artistic flair in Sonia's home. We were displaying how it is to be Filipinos working together -- delightful and sublimely delicious. Our conclusions became affirmations of Rose's "The Gifts in the Filipino Psyche", a framework which outlined nine dominant archetypes, namely, Navigator, Child of Eden, Healer, Warrior, Mystic, Reveler, Artist, Islander and Tribal.

We pinpointed who in CJCC manifested these archetypes. We listened to their life stories and got to be more intimate with these energies. We wrote poems and essays and from these creative output, the musical compositions of psychologist Marisa Marin came forth. We were blown away by the aptness of the melodies created for the stories shared. More CJCC members joined in the meetings for the play. Choncho was the most vocal, the most emphatic, and also the most empathic. Very intelligent and widely-read, Choncho remembered most of the details in

11

the play's making. He recounted meeting notes with theatrical exclamations. For someone who had suffered from a bipolar condition, Choncho's path to recovery and his heroic efforts to encourage people with his condition to find healing were stuff that made up legends. News of his sudden death brought us great sadness. He died on Oct. 6, 2017 with a heart ailment.

He was set to play the role of the Islander, the wise man of the community who monitors ongoings in his community. This maiden production of Halo-Halo Tayo includes the death of the Islander, with a narration and a rejoinder by character Psyche.

Like the proverbial stage, the show must go on. We moved on and gained a precious link to the spirit world.

The deadline for the script was getting close. I was set to start writing on the weekend that turned out to be right after his death. How could I begin to do so with Choncho, who used to be so present, now gone? I used to be with the newsdesk of the Philippine Daily Inquirer. My discipline to beat deadlines despite high waters is a highly honed one. Could death be the exception now? I turned to the Holy Mass as starting point. Coming from the wake, Marisa dropped me off at the Our Lady of Pentecost church in Varsity Hills, Loyola Heights, which is right on the street where Choncho lived. There were three rising steps onto the church's main floor. As I took those steps, I heard a voice in my head say : "Heto na, heto na, hindi nakikita." I immediately recognized it to be the popular Filipino riddle for "hangin", the wind. After a few more seconds, I had some kind of knowledge that the script would be finished.

As a way of saying, I went with the wind.

The writing of the descriptive lines for Psyche and the archetypes was less difficult than other parts. Many years ago, as a young reporter, I wrote vignettes about people in the news in a column called "People" in the Philippines Daily Express. I began to love writing about people, mainly in newsfeatures format. I was used to squeezing out clues to real-life complexities of what we call "being" and rendering them in less than a few hundred words in constricted space in newsprint. Notes on the importance of relatable language and an affirming email from Dido Gustilo, another CJCC co-founder, also brought Booster-X.

What proved challenging were ramping up the stories of at least ten characters with well-defined traits, how to mess and enmesh them up in conflicts that denoted psychological woundings which prevented the energies from coming out in full splendor, and finally, how to relieve these with prospects of resolution, all within a playtime of about 90 minutes. Were the answers also in the wind?

One answer turned up in cyberspace. I looked up Kumpareng Google. 12

He's user friendly and he lined up links. My mind, which loves to float in reverie, got fascinated with the Greek Chorus. Then, the jolt, the "A-ha!" moment came. I wrote in the play: The Greek Chorus were the voices of deep secrets in the olden times. Adding to the excitement of this discovery is the fact that the Greeks are big in mythology. Many of Jung's works are anchored in mythology. Way before the word "template" became famous with IT people, Jung has observed mythic gods and goddesses to be bearers of templates of human behavior.

With these, the story was set to flow. A gift with semi-precious stones, invitations to coffee and seaside conversations with Joji Racelis, CJCC president, helped guide the healing resolutions in the play

Then, I came to realize that the mere patching together of vignettes and laying them down on a mat defined by scholarly work were not sufficient to drive the creation of work that attempts the level of art. An alchemical process was needed. It asked the writer, through whose soul, mind and hands pass the inspiration, to give more of one's self, coming from within. I gave in. In this script, the dream and the memories sequence are my experiences. I realize that their inclusion makes the work more Jungian.

Enhancements, refinements, later came from everyone concerned.

The writing of Halo-Halo Tayo : The Delicious and Colorfully Complex Filipino Soul is a collaborative work. The play casts its spell this way.

First of all, I am thanking my life mentor Sonia Roco for calling me to help. It’s been more than a year now that I have been spending most of my time working as a financial advisor , so I believe this "Halo Halo Tayo” musical is a good opportunity or shall I say a great call back for me to do my first love again, Music with a very meaningful purpose. I did several songs, love songs, company theme songs, and mass songs, but this is the first time to do a song, describing how truly blessed the Filipinos are. It was not easy to do it, but it makes me proud to have done it this far, considering the time pressure. "Yan ang Pilipino" was composed and written overnight on May 24, 2018.

Maria Elvira S. Pascual

“Mayang”

“Playing the role of “Child of Eden” evoked a childhood memory that made me realize that my early inclination for the theater has

been given due expression thanks to this musical play.

I was the only girl after six brothers, and I often played alone. I must have been 4 or 5 years old when one evening, I performed a song and dance in front of a reflection of myself in a full size mirro in our dining room, in my resplendent blanket of a ‘gown’. I was emoting the final lyrics with such flair and gusto when suddenly, I heard hands clapping and voices cheering (or was it jeering?). Apparently, my brothers got curious about the ruckus and started watching me instead of their regular TV show!

I was aghast and so terribly embrassed that I hid under our dining table until it was time for all of us to go to sleep. In fairness, I now don’t think they were jeering or teasing me. I’d like to think they were perhaps more amused and pleasantly surprised, maybe even delighted. Hah!

That early experience fuelled my interest in theatre where I scripted, produced, directed and played roles in high school plays and my parents supported my piano and organ lessons. After college, I was a member of the UP Saringhimig choral ensemble that competed in Europe and garnered awards.

This “Halo-Halo Tayo” musical play brings to full circle the adage that “it’s never too late” and “there are always second chances” to find your Expression!”

“The Halo Halo play for me is really my Heroes journey. Initially, there was really a refusal to answer the call due to various reasons but i guess a still small voice in me was calling me and it was difficult to resist the task of soul work with kindred spirits. Eventually, i realized that this was what they called, "Tadhana" and the gods or the universe has its own agenda. All that i needed to do was to embrace the call to adventure...and the rest was history.”

Oliver is a very passionate interdisciplinary artist, designer. He has honed his creative eye and ear through a lifetime of exploring art,

studying craft techniques and methods, and plunging into the wonderful world of music and singing. During his early years, he

was always involved in art (but did not like art class!) and music. He was always on stage, singing solo and perfoming with the Children’s choir or Glee Club, or behind the stage, involved with production and stage design.

He originally took Architecture at the University of the Philippines, but after some deep soul searching, shifted to take a short course in Interior Design from the Philippine School of Interior Design. Now with more than 20 years of design practice , more than 15 of which he dedicated to event styling and floral design through his company, FERNLEAF, and 3 years of volunteer work teaching Creativity, Art and Music to the scholars of Food For Hungry Minds School, he is know ready to share the process he went through as an artist with a wider audience.

After rediscovering and reclaiming his creative Self, he now divides his time between his own art, and the business of art . Oliver is a board member, faculty member and soul partner of the Carl Jung Circle Center. His signature workshop , entitled WHERE’D YOU GO, LEONARDO? RECLAIMING THE INNER ARTIST, is based on his process of creative discovery. He also creates unique creative workshops for groups like government offices and corporations.

He is co –owner, co curator and one of the resident artists of the VESSEL Gallery: The Jung Art Collective. He also the curator of the Carl Jung Circle Center Art Fairs . For these endeavors, Oliver’s role is to spot, nurture, develop and promote artists.

“I strongly believe that everyone, no matter what your age or background , can benefit from art and that we all have an artistic or creative side. All it needs is a little bit of courage and support and off it will fly! “

Aside from all the art that surrounds him, Oliver is also the tenor in the a cappella vocal quartet called Perfect Fourth, and on occasion, appears on the opera stage . He is also a certified ThetaHealing Practioner.

In collaborating with Ruby and Papo on the song and script, I hoped to really convey my life as a creative person. Its ups and downs, excitements and frustrations. Perhaps others can relate my experience to that creative part of their lives that ebbs and flows every now and then. It has been a journey of experimentation, creativity and lots of fun to present this magical role to you.

In writing part of my lines, I gathered lots of “AHA” moments and deeper insights into my creative process.

In fleshing out the other characters visually through their costumes, I most definitely learned about their archetypes on a much deeper level and with tighter, expansive understanding. They truly are gifts of gold!

Writer. First-time actor. Tall, dark, and handsome (may vary on your opinion).

“I never imagined I would participate in a play in my entire life! But it was an amazing experience! It was such a challenge to memorize my

parts since the role of the Greek Chorus is to be present at every scene, not to mention that it was my first time to be in a play. But this definitely

taught me to be more passionate and devoted to all aspects of my life. I am very grateful and blessed to be with such an amazing cast.”

“My experience of the Halo-halo play has been fun and memorable. I enjoyed our practices where we created movements and actions. I’ve met new friends who made my experience much more special. The play also gave me the opportunity to showcase my talent in acting which is something I really love to do. This experience became more memorable as this was my first time to work with some of my relative particularly my aunt and cousin who are both actors in the play as well.”

“Halo-Halo Tayo” challenged me to really work with my fellow Audience cast, and the rest of my castmates to have that dynamic and chemistry between all of us. I am grateful for this production because I got to work with these passionate and driven people.

The Jung LibraryOur Soul Space

at123 Pioneer St., Mandaluyong City

Welcome! The Jung Library in Pioneer St., is envisioned to be a soul space. To think. To read. To be in silence. To write. To study. To be enlightened. To be inspired. To be immersed in wisdom. To individuate. History and MissionThe JUNG Library was launched in July 26, 2007, which was also the 132nd birthday of Carl Jung.

The library supports the individuation journey of participants of The Carl Jung Circle Center’s workshops. It is also meant for the further development of psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors and those in the healing profession, as well as students in psychology. And lastly, it is meant for individuals who wish to do soul work by reflecting on the aha! wisdom of these books.

The Jung Library was initiated by the Friends of Jung Society - the mother and “humus” group, and The Carl Jung Circle Center – a broad Jungian-oriented community of professionals, individuals and groups. Its original location was at the RMY Consultancy office in Reposo, Makati. Private CollectionThe Library houses the private collection of initially eight individuals who generously (and with separation anxiety) loaned their books to the library. These are: Lizanne Alcazaren, Alex Tee, Rose Marie Yenko, Dr. Dido Gustilo, Ramon Abola (from the collection of his late wife, Marlene Abola), Elaine Lim, Dr. Rene Samaniego and Len Fernandez. It also houses the archive (notes, papers, a few books) of the late Filipina Jungian Analyst, Dr. Eliza Baja.

In recent years, Dr. Ruth Hill and Dr. Garett Hill donated valuable Jungian journals. AJ Sagmit also loaned a vast number of his Jungian books.

The books in the Library include the works of Carl Jung, other known Jungian Analysts such as Marie

25

Louise Von books Franz, Barbara Hannah, and Edward Edinger, and other contemporary Jungian Analysts and authors - Jean Shinoda Bolen, June Singer, Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Marion Woodman, Carole Pearson, Daryl Sharp, Kathrin Asper, Verena Kast, Robert Johnson, Joseph Campbell, Jean Houston, Robert Bly, James Hillman, Thomas Moore, Robert Moore, Ira Progoff, Murray Stein and many others. The library is likewise building up its collection of books from the faculty of the PACIFICA Graduate Institute.

These books have been sourced from Jung Institutes and universities abroad, from bookshops – local, foreign and second-hand, from assiduous searches on the Net, from friends and other collectors.

Included in this collection are books on myths, fairy tales, arts therapy, and other psychology books.

These books and materials are precious. Thank you to these collectors! Materialization of the Library
