Close to the Bone: Life-Threatening Illness As a Soul Journey4 reviews
Jean Shinoda Bolen

Conari Press, 2007

The "after" of life-threatening illness
"In noisy wards crowded waiting rooms of country hospitals and clinics, in quiet private rooms in medical center pavilions or in well-appointed waiting rooms, examining rooms, or offices, wherever there are patients, there are long moments of silence, pauses, sometimes preceded by a sigh, a transient stillness when the air feels heavier." So starts this book--and if you have "been there" for ...

Urgent Message from Mother: Gather the Women, Save the World17 reviews
Jean Shinoda Bolen

Conari Press, 2008

Time to Pull Out a Sixth Star
For me this book is a Bible. It's worth six stars at least, and in my opinion Amazon.com needs to dust off a sixth star to accommodate it. As you glide through Urgent Message, you begin to feel hopeful again, safe, and sheltered, and you think maybe it's possible after all for humanity to save itself. One reason for this is that Bolen not only lays out a roadmap to the future, she ... 		  
  







  
  
Gods In Everyman8 reviews
Jean Shinoda Bolen

Harper Paperbacks, 1990

I keeping giving this book to people
One of my favorite Jungian authors has written a book that I keep giving away. I have given it to young fathers trying to understand their sons, I have given it to friends trying to understand themselves, I have given it to collegues trying to understand their patients, and I give it to myself by reading every now and then. If you want a framework, a language, a reference point to understand and ... 		  
  







  
  
The Millionth Circle: How to Change Ourselves and The World--The Essential Guide to Women's Circles12 reviews
Jean Shinoda Bolen

Conari Press, 1999

Broad application for the concepts of The Millionth Circle
Working as I do in the corporate environment, I have used the principles contained in this concise book to create healthy alternatives to the typical hierarchical meeting. One does not have to have a background in women's spirituality to understand its premise or its practical application in many settings. As businesses of all sizes seek to move beyond traditional organizational forms, the book ... 		  
  







  
  
Goddesses in Older Women: Archetypes in Women Over Fifty9 reviews
Jean Shinoda Bolen

Harper Paperbacks, 2002

Calling all women!
In a culture that worships youthful beauty, this book reminds us all that our esoteric standards are stifled, immature and limited. The wonderful Bolen leads women (and real men) on a revealing and empowering exploration of the many rich, strong, wise, diverse and beautiful identities that both shape and define the gifts of "older" women. I have shared this book with my daughters, my friends ...

Crossing to Avalon: A Woman's Midlife Quest for the Sacred Feminine15 reviews
Jean Shinoda Bolen

HarperOne, 1995

I am a man, watch me roar (if I have to I can do anything - I am stong, I am invincible...I am mannnnnnn)
You know, I have to say - this book is awesome - especially if you are a woman. I am not. I am reading this as a women's studies requirement at a "womens centered" university I attend (what can I say?).I am struggling to read this book and find parallels to the male journey... argh. If you are a guy, skip this! I know all of you are going to click on the "no" helpful voting button for this ... 		  
  







  
  
The Tao of Psychology3 reviews
Jean Shinoda Bolen

HarperOne, 2005

Great little book on Synchronicity and more....
This is a great little book on synchronicity i.e. meaningful, but non-causal relationships between events both outer and inner. Dr. Bolen knows her stuff and in this text she manages to pack a lot of interesting information on Jung's notion of synchronicity and her own reflections on its relationship to the Tao and paranormal phenomenon. This is a quick, educational, entertaining and very ... 		  
  







  
  
Ring of Power: Symbols and Themes Love Vs. Power in Wagner's Ring Circle and in Us : A Jungian-Feminist ...8 reviews
Jean Shinoda Bolen

Nicolas-Hays, 1999

Cold Wind To Valhalla
Certainly one of Bolen's most essential works. Ring Of Power provides a valuable guide to Wagner's classic Ring Cycle, yet it is Bolen's grasp of the archetypal basis for the mythology that gives the book its power. All creation comes from an archetypal base, and in The Ring, it is the symbolic sacrificing of the Sacred Feminine that drives the entire story. This principle is fundamental to many ... 		  
  







  
  
The Tao of Psychology: Synchronicity and Self3 reviews
Jean Shinoda Bolen

HarperSanFrancisco, 1982

Quantum Physics Meets Eastern Philosophy
Quantum physics has defined a basic unit of matter that makes up all things, both organic and inorganic, which is pure energy. The same unit of energy that is a part of your body today may, only days before, have been a part of a bird flying over Beijing or an Ethiopian villager. This "new" knowledge from modern physics sounds very much like the Tao--in Eastern phillosophies, the "unifying ... 		  
  







  
  
Close to the Bone: Life Threatening Illness and the Search for Meaning6 reviews
Jean Shinoda Bolen

Scribner, 1998

The Right Book at the Right Time
This book is unlike any other I have read. The author is a Jungian analyst and clinical professor of psychiatry. To quote the book jacket, she "weaves myth, experience, and story to produce a book which at once illuminates the experience of the seriously ill patient and shows that facing one's mortality can be a life-transforming, and even a life-saving process". At a time when I was recovering ... 		  
  







  
  
Las diosas de la mujer madura: Arquetipos femeninos a partir de los cincuenta
Jean Shinoda Bolen

Editorial Kairos, 2006

In the face of the cultural myth that women fade away as they age, this book offers an historical look at women's potential to transform the third phase of their lives into one of wholeness and personal integration. This Jungian perspective on the mature woman looks to Greek, Egyptian, and Asian mythology for powerful archetypes of women in the third stage of life. The mythic origins of goddesses such as Metis, Sophia, Hecate, and Hestia are ...

Jean Shinoda Bolen

HarperCollins Publishers, 1993

Ring of Power
In this brilliant and provacativew analysis of the dysfunctional family and patriarchal society, popular author and Jungian analyst Jean Shinoda Bolen explores the process of enlightenment, empowerment and healing that can be sparked by myth, drama, and metaphor. Drawing on Richard Wagner's enduring, multigenerational Ring Cycle operas, Bolen ezamines our roles in a patriarchal, dysfunctional ...
