Man and His Symbols
AuthorC.G. Jung
ISBN0440351839
My university professors never introduced me to Carl Jung. I understand why, I guess, but it's a shame that I didn't read Jung's work until now. Jungian psychology is amazing. It addresses the unconscious and the "self"/"psyche" in a unique and enlightening way. And, unlike most other psychologists,...
The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious
AuthorC.G. Jung
ISBN0691097615
Except his book on flying saucers, read in childhood, this was the first book I ever read by C.G. Jung. The experience led to a programme of study which occupied the next eight years, leading me to change college majors (history to religious studies) and to proceed to seminary upon graduation.

The Gnostic Jung and the Seven Sermons to the Dead
AuthorStephan A. Hoeller
I took away two things from this book.

1) Carl Jung is a total loon.
2) His ideas make a lot of sense.

Granted, I was a bit tipsy for about 1/3 of the book, but the ethics it illustrates were pretty compelling.

This book contains both the Seven Sermons to the Dead in their entirety...
The Freud Reader
AuthorSigmund Freud
ISBN0393314030
The first single-volume work to capture Freud's ideas as scientist, humanist, physician, and philosopher.

What to read from the vast output of Sigmund Freud has long been a puzzle. Freudian thought permeates virtually every aspect of twentieth-century life; to understand Freud is to explore...
Anatomy of the Psyche: Alchemical Symbolism in Psychotherapy (Reality of the Psyche)
AuthorEdward F. Edinger
ISBN0812690095
"Edinger has greatly enriched my understanding of psychology through the avenue of alchemy. No other contribution has been as helpful as this for revealing, in a word, the anatomy of the psyche and how it applies to where one is in his or her process. This is a significant amplification and extension...
Jung and Tarot: An Archetypal Journey
AuthorSallie Nichols
ISBN0877285152
Highly innovative work presenting a piercing interpretation of the tarot in terms of Jungian psychology. Through analogy with the humanities, mythology and the graphic arts, the significance of the cards is related to personal growth and individuation. The major arcana becomes a map of life, and...
Creating a Life: Finding Your Individual Path
AuthorJames Hollis

Ask yourself, 'When do I feel most real?' What comes up on the screen? All of us have had moments in our lives when we felt whole or wholly present, or experienced a sense of well-being, an intuition of a higher order of reality. Such moments are transitory, alas, and cannot be summoned up by will or mind or...

AuthorRobert A. Johnson
ISBN0062507540
