Practically Shameless: How Shadow Work Helped Me Find My Voice, My Path, and My Inner Gold

25 reviews
Alyce Barry

Practically Shameless Press, 2008

Moving, Helpful and Real
This review relates to the audio book. First the caveats: (1) As Alyce makes clear in the book, Shadow Work is brand name for a particular method of personal growth and the certified practitioners who offer it for a fee; (2) The book may be difficult to fully understand or appreciate if one has no experience in self-examination or the 'inner path', (3) While I personally have no stake in Shadow ...

The Handbook of Jungian Psychology: Theory, Practice and Applications

2 reviews
Renos K. Papadopoulos

Routledge, 2006

One of the better books on Jung
Jung, in my view, was one of the great minds of the 20th century, and a rather unusual fellow too. I have bought several books on Jung, and something about the writing style I find difficult to read and comprehend. People I have spoken to echo the same sentiment 'I know what you mean,'they nod sympathetically. So, imagine my delight when I stumbled across this in a bookstore. Leafing ...

Tarot Psychology (Jungian Tarot Trilogy)
Robert Wang

Marcus Aurelius Press, 2007

Tarot Psychology is unique in that it describes a practical system of inner development, using Jungian methods of active imagination similar to those taught secretly by Hermetic-Qabalistic and other organizations. The goal of these inner journeys is, however, not an escape from mundane human contact, but an appreciation of the complex relationships between mother, father, daughter, son, and others encountered in daily life. The principal is ...

The Jungian Tarot Deck

12 reviews
Robert Wang

Marcus Aurelius Press, 2001

A beautiful deck
A beautiful deck, well thought-out and unlike any other on the market. Because the figures are so realistic it is perfect for the Jungian process of "Active imagination." This is my favorite deck. I just became aware that this deck is part of a three-book trilogy: The Jungian Tarot and Its Archetypal Imagery, Tarot Psychology: Handbook for the Jungian Tarot, and Perfect Tarot Divination.

Theory and Practice of Understanding Your Dreams
This compact discussion of the Jungian method of dream analyses is a thorough examination of basic concepts as they are applied in practical dream interpretation. The author, a psychiatrist and Jungian Analyst, clearly outlines the process of understanding dreams and addresses their purpose. Dreams are for "problem solving and personality development." First they are compensation for ...

Melville's Moby Dick - An American Nekyia: An American Nekyia (Studies in Jungian Psychology By Jungian ...

3 reviews
Edward F. Edinger

Inner City Books, 1995

Illuminates both Jung and Melville
Edinger says upfront that his goal is to illuminate both Moby Dick and Jungian theory, in effect using them to throw light on each other. The fit between Melville's characters and Jungian character types and archetypes is clear and clean, never forced. Generous quotes from the novel illustrate Edinger's points. Edinger references page numbers from the Penquin Classics edition of Moby Dick. ...

The Jungian Tarot and Its Archetypal Imagery (Jungian Tarot Trilogy)

Marcus Aurelius Press, 2001

Critics Don't Get It ! ! !
Brilliant! The intelligent correspondences between Tarot, religion, and mythology are unique and welcome in a field where insubstantial books are the norm. Those few who have criticized this deck clearly do not "get it." The pictures have helped me to understand Jung's psychology. I just became aware that this is part of a three-book trilogy which includes: Tarot Psychology: Handbook for the ...

A Primer of Jungian Psychology

8 reviews
Calvin S. Hall, Vernon J. Nordby

Plume, 1999

Great Jung cover
Jung builds off many of Freuds concepts, therefore the author Calvin Hall had to, and does have a sense of Freudian psychology. There are also many things that are Jungs own such as ideas about: a collective unconscious, archetypes, dreams and symbols and various personality types. All these things and more covered by Calvin Hall - originating from Carl Gustov Jung. Read it.

Andrew Samuels

Routledge, 1986

A useful map of the terrain
This is a well written and very useful map of the many branches of contemporary Jungian psychology. It will be of great interest to anyone wishing to understand some of its links to other schools of depth psychology and to appreciate way in which Jungian psychology has developed in several different countries.

Jung and the Jungians on Myth (Theorists of Myth)

Routledge, 2002

Jung and the Jungians on Myth
For anyone who has an interest in Jungian psychology and taking the path to individuation, this book is a must. While C.G. Jung is undoubtably one of the most important figures in the 20th century, his writings can be hard to understand if one hasn't already been exposed to analytical psychology, mythology, alchemy, Latin, and/or ancient Greek. This book takes the reader from Jung's theory of ...

Jung Lexicon: A Primer of Terms and Concepts (Studies in Jungian Psychology By Jungian Analysts)

3 reviews
Daryl Sharp, C. G. Jung

Inner City Books, 1990

Invaluable Reference book for understanding Jung
I bought this book several years ago as I was getting into Jung. I found it then, and now, to be an invaluable reference work. Each entry includes a one sentence line defining the terms, then usually one or two quotes from Jung, and then the author's analysis of the term. Daryl Sharp has done an excellent job of finding the most concise and direct quotes from Jung which explain his terms. He ...

Mapping the Organizational Psyche: A Jungian Theory of Organizational Dynamics and Change

2 reviews
John G. Corlett, Carol S. Pearson

Center for Applications of Psychological Type, 2003

A real eye-opener!
The authors approach organizations from a deep understanding of personality and archetype. Awareness of the existance of these dynamics is the first step toward a healthy, whole organization. The carefully laid out description of Jung's work, complete with diagrams, gives any reader a basic understanding of the complexity of this dimension. The book is full of examples from known companies, as ...

Principles of Jungian Spirituality: The Only Introduction You'll Ever Need (Thorsons Principles Series)

2 reviews
Vivianne Crowley

Thorsons, 1998

Superb introduction to a complex subject
This is a fine introduction to the most important Jungian ideas of spirituality. Jung was responsible for developing many aspects of psychology which we take for granted today, and his personal researches extended into the religions and beliefs of both East and West. A great author but a poor communicator, his works are not easy for newcomers to the subject so this book, which presents all the ...

Jungian Sandplay: The Wonderful Therapy

Ryce-Menuhin

Routledge, 1991

A useful teaching resource
Jungian Sandplay is a valuable contribution to the sandplay therapy literature. It is a very readable book and accesible to both the beginner and the experienced psychotherapist. Ryce-Menunin describes sandplay therapy while also sharing with the reader his opinions and clinical experience. The author does not limit himself to Jungian references. Quotes from Jung and Winnicott help bridge ...

Castration and Male Rage: The Phallic Wound (Studies in Jungian Psychology By Jungian Analysts)
Eugene Monick

Inner City Books, 1991

A Critical Dictionary of Jungian Analysis

2 reviews
Andrew Samuels

Routledge, 1986

Couldn't be handier.
Concise, clear, informative. Concepts are in alphabetical order: anima, ego, syzygy, etc. Highly recommended for students of Jung. At the moment I'm not teaching any introductions to Jung's thought, but when I do I plan to assign this book. I hope the authors consider expanding on the "critical" aspect some day: each definition is mostly explanatory with a few comments appended.
