Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C. G. Jung's work in his later years suggested that the seemingly divergent sciences of psychology and modern physics might, in fact, be approaching a unified world model in which the dualism of matter and psyche would be resolved. Jung believed that the natural integers are the archetypal patterns that regulate the unitary realm of psyche and matter, and that number serves as a special instrument for man's becoming conscious of this unity. Writen in a clear style and replete with illustrations which help make the mathematical ideas visible, Number and Time is a piece of original scholarship which introduces a view of how "mind" connects with "matter" at the most fundamental level.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chief disciple of C. G. Jung, analyst Marie-Louise von Franz uses her vast knowledge of the world of myths, fairy tales, visions, and dreams to examine expressions of the universal symbol of the Anthropos, or Cosmic Man—a universal archetype that embodies humanity's personal as well as collective identity. She shows that the meaning of life—the realization of our fullest human potential, which Jung called individuation—can only be found through a greater differentiation of consciousness by virtue of archetypes, and that ultimately our future depends on relationships, whether between the sexes or among nations, races, religions, and political factions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We tie the weaknesses of our knowledge with the tight knots of our truths. The idea of a psyche within and the world outside us is so evident and true that, from a tight knot, it became part of the fabric of our knowledge. Put in other words, our belief in separation and independence of psyche and matter is so natural and immediate that resists situations that challenge its veracity. These situations, in turn, held on to us and became new knots that are now part of our fabric of knowledge. We must face our fear of not knowing, loosening such knots in order to enrich with new motifs the composition of this fabric, which insists in opening up and expanding. The phenomenon of synchronicity and the discoveries of quantum physics compel us to re-evaluate our scientific truths based on deterministic parameters. Synchronicity, as described by Jung, is a connection between a psychic, subjective event, and an external physical event, according to its meaning and not due to cause and effect. Inserted into an acausal order, it raises questions on the relationship between psyche and matter. The findings of quantum physics also demand from us new ways of seeing reality. The psyche of the observer has proven crucial, affecting the results of experimentation with matter, pointing out once again the interaction of psyche and matter. How can we ignore these findings? We can say that physics has explored the objectivity of matter leading to the psychic, while depth psychology moved towards subjectivity and found objective patterns of the psyche, the archetypes that make up the collective unconscious.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a text revised and corrected by the author, this definitive edition of Individuation in Fairy Tales is rich with insights from religion, literature, and myth. Dr. von Franz focuses on the symbolism of the bird motif in six fairy tales of Europe and Asia: "The White Parrot" (Spain), "The Bath Bagerd" (Persia), "Princess Hassan Pasha" (Turkestan), "The Bid Flower Triller" (Iran), "The Nightingale Giser" (Balkans), and "The Bird Wehmus" (Austria). She explores the themes of psychological and spiritual transformation in the varied images of birds, such as the phoenix, the parrot, and the griffin. Special attention is given to the connection between fairy tales and alchemy and to the guidance that fairy tales give to therapeutic work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Jungian psychologist explains how careful analyses of fairy tales like “Beauty and the Beast” can lead to a better understanding of human psychology Of the various types of mythological literature, fairy tales are the simplest and purest expressions of the collective unconscious and thus offer the clearest understanding of the basic patterns of the human psyche. Every people or nation has its own way of experiencing this psychic reality, and so a study of the world's fairy tales yields a wealth of insights into the archetypal experiences of humankind. Perhaps the foremost authority on the psychological interpretation of fairy tales is Marie-Louise von Franz. In this book—originally published as An Introduction to the Interpretation of Fairy Tales —she describes the steps involved in analyzing and illustrates them with a variety of European tales, from "Beauty and the Beast" to "The Robber Bridegroom." Dr. von Franz begins with a history of the study of fairy tales and the various theories of interpretation. By way of illustration she presents a detailed examination of a simple Grimm's tale, "The Three Feathers," followed by a comprehensive discussion of motifs related to Jung's concept of the shadow, the anima, and the animus. This revised edition has been corrected and updated by the author.
