About this ebook
Volume one of Jung’s legendary talks on the archetypal visions of one of analytical psychology’s most intriguing figures
For C. G. Jung, the beautiful and gifted twenty-eight-year-old Christiana Morgan was an inspirational force whose path in self-analysis paralleled his own quest for self-knowledge. Teaching Morgan the trance-like technique of active imagination, Jung launched her on a pilgrimage of archetypal encounters in a quest for psychological integration—encounters she recorded in the words and paintings that formed the basis of the seminar Jung would give to his circle in Zurich, presented here in the first of two volumes. Jung speaks candidly about Morgan’s visions even as he struggles with the feminine principle in his subject and his own psyche. The theories from his years of intellectual research—the anima and animus, the process of individuation, the mythopoetic archetypes of the collective unconscious—all spring to life in the fiery imagery of Morgan’s imaginal landscape. Recounting her journey, Jung employs his full range of scholarship and professional experience as he unravels the skein of archetypal parallels from Western myth and Eastern yoga.
