Young Carl Jung offers a more balanced view with rare glimpses into Carl Jung's formative years. In a masterful telling of Jung's childhood, Brockway provides a clear perspective on the impact young Carl's experiences played in forming his later theories.

Abraham the man was God's chosen one-chosen to impart the belief in one God to a pagan society and to bring forth a new nation in the Promised Land. Abraham the symbol shows that we all have a mission if we will heed the call from the voice of Self.

If one chooses to be different, it is important to understand how the group to be challenged will accommodate diversity. Many groups defend themselves against the different, the new, and the perceived negative, by collectively rejecting this element through the creation of a scapegoat. To accommodate diversity, Arthur Colman explores ways individuals and groups can grow beyond the continual theme of scapegoating. Up from Scapegoating is the fi...

In a spirited and accessible interpretation, Angelo Spoto presents at least four perspectives on Jung's philosophy of typology, including an analysis of the popular Myers-Brigg Type Indicator. He shows where typology fits into Jung's broader analytical work and illustrates how typology, while just a branch of the psychology of Jung, can lead to a deeper understanding of Jung's entire model of the human personality. The book includes a forward ...

Her more than twenty books have inspired more than two generations of readers, many of whom found their way into Jungian psychology through her compassionate and profound insights. She lived in Kusnacht, Switzerland, and was a scholar of Medieval Latin as well as a major figure in analytical psychology. She met Jung i...

Complexes-groups of associations arising out of the unconscious-have been known and described in all cultures and are integral to the healthy psyche. Breuer first coined the term complexes to describe part personalities. Jung developed the concept further, assigning the shell of the complex with its amplifications and associations to the personal unconscious, and postulating a core that is archetypal in nature and rooted in the collective unco...

This biography, a full-scale study of Jung's life and work by a pupil, friend, and close associate for more than thirty years, is a lucid, penetrating account of Jung's career that stresses the essential wholeness of the man and traces the difficult path by which that wholeness was achieved. From his earliest years to his death, through the crowded inner and outer events of his long lifetime, this study presents a view of the real Jung rather ...

Basing his study on Jung's archetypal theory-especially that of initiation-Thresholds of Initiation represents thirty years of testing the theory in analytical practice. Joseph Henderson considers archetypes to be predictable patterns of inner conditioning that lead to certain essential changes and shows the parallels between individual psychological self-development and the rites that marked initiation in the past. Dr. Henderson's topics incl...

In this book, she describes her experience of struggling to find meaning and wholeness in one of the most shattering of experiences. That journey led her to Jungian archetypal psychology and to a heartfelt desire to help others come to terms with the profound sense of grief and loss that follows such an event. The author tells her story of "pe...

A woman's dream of being trapped in a black nightgown reveals a dread that dominates her psyche and blocks her development as a self. In her story and others', Jungian analyst Nathan Schwartz-Salant reveals how the same complex characterizes our society as a whole. This archetypal pattern is called the Fusional Complex. The Fusional Complex is like the Renaissance alchemists' prima materia, said to be vile and worthless, ubiquitous and easily ...

In The Archetypal Symbolism of Animals, Barbara Hannah, a student and a close friend of C.G. Jung, presents lectures on the symbolic meaning of several domestic and wild animals. According to Jung, the animal is sublime and, in fact, represents the "divine" side of the human psyche. He believed that animals live much more in contact with a "secret" order in nature itself and-far more than human beings-live in close contact with "absolute knowl...

Why are over 500 of the world's images of the Madonna "black" or "dark"? And why are they so little known? A resurfacing of the powerful pagan goddesses of sexuality, the underworld and earth-wisdom, the Black Virgins are symbols of power and majesty, the other aspect of the traditional Madonna's maidenhood or tender maternity. They personify the Holy Grail and the Ark of the Covenant in a quest for lost feminine wisdom and the search for soul...

Based on real-life experiences-Deike Begg's own and those of her clients-this is a simple and profound exposition of an idea that is often presented through the complicated mystification of physics or philosophy. Begg explores synchronicity as signposts and the universe's call of destiny. She describes in clear language how to recognize a synchronicity: i.e. if it is not an emotional response to the intersection of two different sorts of time ...
