Memories, Dreams, Reflections - Wikipedia First published in German inan English translation appeared in In Kurt Wolffpublisher and owner of Pantheon Booksexpressed a desire to publish a biography of Jung's life. Jung wrote the first three chapters about his childhood and early adulthood. By Dreams and Reflections time he had already told me a good many of his earliest memories, but there were still great gaps in the story. This decision was Dreams and Reflections gratifying as it was unexpected, for I knew how great a strain writing Memories for Jung. A book of mine is always a matter of fate. There is something unpredictable about the process of writing, and I cannot prescribe for myself any predetermined course. Thus Memories "autobiography" is now Memories a direction quite different from what I had imagined at the beginning. It has become a necessity for me to write down my early memories. Dreams and Reflections I neglect to do so for a single day, unpleasant physical symptoms immediately follow. As soon as I set to work they vanish and my head feels perfectly clear. Jung also contributed part of the chapter titled "Travels" the part about his travels to Kenya and Ugandaand the chapter titled "Late Thoughts. The content and layout of the book was much disputed. Jung's family, in the interest Memories keeping Jung's private life from the public eye, pushed for deletions and other changes. The publisher demanded that the Memories be greatly shortened to keep the price of printing down. Eventually, the disputed text including a chapter entitled "Encounters" detailing some of Jung's friendships and acquaintanceships was integrated into other chapters. The book was finally published in English by Pantheon Books, a division of Random Houseintwo years after Jung's death. It has remained in print ever since. Memories, Dreams, Reflections details Jung's childhood, his personal life, and his Dreams and Reflections of the psyche.

Memories, Dreams, Reflections by C.G. Jung In the spring ofat the age of 84, legendary psychiatrist Carl Jung set out to tell his life's story. He embarked upon a series of conversations with his colleague and friend, Aniela Jaffe, which he used as the basis for the text. At times, so powerful was his drive for expression that he wrote entire chapters by hand. He continued to work on the manuscript until shortly before his death in The genesis of this book to some extent determined its contents. Conversation or spontaneous narration is inevitably casual, and the Memories has carried over the entire 'autobiography. In recompense, they transmit the atmosphere of his intellectual world and the experience of a man to whom the psyche was a profound reality. Jung's reflections span everything from the minutia of working for a living to the grand truths of the human condition to the nature of the divine. This particular passage, from the closing of a chapter entitled "Life and Death," struck me as a powerful lens on consciousness and what it means to be human :. Our age Memories shifted all emphasis Dreams and Reflections the here and now, and thus brought about a daemonization of man and his world. Dreams and Reflections phenomenon of dictators and all the misery they have wrought springs from the fact that man has been robbed of transcendence by the shortsightedness of the super-intellectuals. Like them, he has fallen a victim to unconsciousness. But man's task is the exact opposite: to become conscious of the contents that press upward from the unconscious. Neither should he persist in his unconsciousness, nor remain identical with the unconscious elements of his being, thus evading his destiny, which is to create more and more consciousness. As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being. It may even Memories assumed that just as the unconscious affects us, so the increase in our consciousness affects the unconscious. Among the most fascinating elements of the book, especially for a lover of letters such as myself, is the appendix, which features never-before-published letters from Freud to Jung. In one, dated April 16,Freud discusses -- with an odd blend of reverence for mysticism and keen Dreams and Reflections of the selective attention at work -- how he became obsessed with the idea that he would die between the ages Dreams and Reflections 61 and 62, and subsequently started seeing Dreams and Reflections two numbers everywhere. Freud concludes, with a subtle jab at Jung's own views on "poltergeist phenomena":. Here is another instance Memories you will find confirmation of the specifically Jewish character of my mysticism. Apart from this, I only want to say that adventures such as mine with the number 62 can be explained by two things. The first is an enormously intensified alertness on the part of the unconscious, so that one is led like Faust to see Helen in every woman. The second is the undeniable 'co-operation of chance,' which plays the same role in the formation of delusions as somatic co-operation in hysterical symptoms or linguistic Memories in puns. I therefore look forward to hearing more about your investigations of the spook-complex, my interest being the interest one has in a lovely delusion which one does not share oneself. Though not without faults, Jung's Memories one of modern history's most intriguing minds and Memories, Dreams, Reflections Memories a rare, infinitely insightful glimpse of its inner workings.

  • Bollingen Series, –
    Bollingen Series, – Bollingen Series, named for the small village in Switzerland where Carl Gustav Jung had a private retreat, was originated by the phi- lanthropist Paul Mellon and his first wife, Mary Conover Mellon, in . Both Mellons were analysands of Jung in Switzerland in the s and had been welcomed into his personal circle, which included the eclectic group of scholars who had recently inaugu- rated the prestigious conferences known as the Eranos Lectures, held annually in Ascona, Switzerland. In the couple established Bollingen Foundation as a source of fellowships and subventions related to humanistic scholarship and institutions, but its grounding mission came to be the Bollin- gen book series. The original inspiration for the series had been Mary Mellon’s wish to publish a comprehensive English-language translation of the works of Jung. In Paul Mellon’s words,“The idea of the Collected Works of Jung might be considered the central core, the binding factor, not only of the Foundation’s general direction but also of the intellectual temper of Bollingen Series as a whole.” In his famous Bollingen Tower, Jung pursued studies in the reli- gions and cultures of the world (both ancient and modern), sym- bolism, mysticism, the occult (especially alchemy), and, of course, psychology. The breadth of Jung’s interests allowed the Bollingen editors to attract scholars, artists, and poets from among the brightest lights in midcentury Europe and America, whether or not their work was “Jungian” in orientation. In the end, the series was remarkably eclectic and wide-ranging, with fewer than half of its titles written by Jung or his followers.

  • Jung on Astrology
    Jung on Astrology Jung on Astrology brings together C. G. Jung’s thoughts on astrology in a single volume for the fi rst time, signifi cantly adding to our understanding of his work. Jung’s Collected Works , seminars, and letters contain numerous discussions of this ancient divinatory system, and Jung himself used astrological horoscopes as a diagnostic tool in his analytic practice. Understood in terms of his own psychology as a symbolic representation of the archetypes of the collective unconscious, Jung found in astrology a wealth of spiritual and psychological meaning and suggested it represents the “sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity.” The selections and editorial introductions by Safron Rossi and Keiron Le Grice address topics that were of critical importance to Jung – such as the archetypal symbolism in astrology, the precession of the equinoxes and astrological ages, astrology as a form of synchronicity and acausal correspondence, the qualitative nature of time, and the experience of astrological fate – allowing readers to assess astrology’s place within the larger corpus of Jung’s work and its value as a source of symbolic meaning for our time. The book will be of great interest to analytical psychologists, Jungian psy- chotherapists, and academics and students of depth psychology and Jungian and post-Jungian studies, as well as to astrologers and therapists of other orientations, especially transpersonal. Safron Rossi, PhD, is a Professor of mythology and depth psychology in the Jungian and Archetypal Studies specialization at Pacifi ca Graduate Institute, Cali- fornia. For many years she was curator of the Joseph Campbell and James Hillman manuscript collections.

  • Religion, Gnosticism, Encounter with the East, and Alchemy
    JUNG ON RELIGION, GNOSTICISM, HIS ENCOUNTER WITH THE EAST, AND ALCHEMY RUNNING HEAD: Jung, Religion, Gnosticism, the East, Alchemy David Johnston Jung, Religion, Gnosticism, the East, Alchemy 2 ABSTRACT In this paper I briefly survey the importance that Jung placed on the religious instinct, his life long engagement with Christianity, as well as his abiding interest in Gnosticism, his encounter with the East, and his discovery of the Grail tradition and alchemy. I also look at Jung’s observations on Nazism, his realization of the living God and concept of the unus mundus. Jung sees Christianity as an ailing religion in need of healing. From his studies of the East, he gains much supportive knowledge that affirms his own empirical findings and personal experiences. While in India he realizes that his mission is to provide healing for the Western soul, which he understands requires compensatory truths for its Christian worldview that he particularly uncovers in Gnosticism, medieval alchemy, and the Grail tradition.

Introduction The history of Eranos can be found in an unwritten ook,b which I often peruse, read, examine, and compare – I also look at the pictures, since there are many pictures in this book, – and I search for the connections that form the whole in a meaningful and unifying way. The entire image, the pattern that becomes visible, is interwoven and entwined with the pattern of my own life to such an extent that it is really difficult to separate them. (Olga Fröbe-Kapteyn) 2 1 I wish to thank the Fetzer Institute and particularly Prof. Lawrence Sullivan for inviting me to this Fetzer Dialogue, thus giving me the opportunity to present these reflections. I also wish to thank the Eranos Foundation for allowing me to quote from documents of the Eranos Archive.

  • Jung and Aion: Time, Vision, and a Wayfaring Man
    Jung and Aion: Time, Vision, and a Wayfaring Man Lance S. Owens C. G. Jung stated in 1957 that the visionary experiences recorded in The Red Book: Liber Novus were the foundation of his life work: “My entire life consisted in elaborating what had burst forth from the unconscious and flooded me like an enigmatic stream . the numinous beginning, which contained everything, was then.” Liber Novus is now historically placed in a hermeneutic relationship with Jung’s subsequent writings. Jung composed the first page of Liber Novus in 1915. On this in- troductory folio leaf he graphically intertwined a prophecy of the future and the coming of a new aeon: an epochal turning-point in human con- sciousness. Though this revelation was foundational to his subsequent work, Jung did not initially feel free to publicly disclose its keynote. After several extraordinary near-death visions in 1944, Jung real- ized it was his duty to finally and openly communicate the central revela- tion recorded in Liber Novus.ThefirstmanuscriptpageofLiber Novus penned by Jung in 1915—deeply considered, dense with verbal and pictorial imagery formed in response to the Spirit of the Depths—and the complexly crafted commentary in Aion, composed three decades later, are fundamentally wed. They both declare the dawning of a new aeon. While each work might be studied as an independent text, one can only comprehend Jung and his struggle with Liber Novus in their conjunction. ho hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground.

Jung and the Tradition of Gnosis C. G. Jung and The Red Book: Liber Novus The Hermeneutics of Vision: C. G. Jung and Liber Novus Lance S. Owens ON THE EVENING of 12 November 1913, Carl Gustav Jung arrived at the mythic crossroads of his life. A power emerging from the depths was compelling him toward a journey he did not comprehend. Unexpected words were demanding his voice. He reached into a desk drawer, retrieved the journal he had abandoned eleven years earlier, and opened it to a blank leaf. Jung was thirty-eight years old, a famous doctor, clinical investigator, and leader of Freud’s revolutionary psychoanalytic movement. He sat in the study of the new mansion he had built for his family on the shores of Lake Zurich. But this night he faced the darkness of a starker interior fact: during a decade of meteoric success, he had lost something precious. Jung had lost his soul. Now She awaited. He turned to the empty page, scribed the date at top, and began: My soul, my soul, where are you? Do you hear me? I speak, I call you–are you there? I have returned, I am here again.

Jung Jung’s “Art Complex” Sylvester Wojtkowski, PhD The images in this paper are strictly for educational use and are protected by United States copyright laws. 1 Unauthorized use will result in criminal and civil penalties. “That is art,” said the woman within Jung. He replied, “No, it is not art! On the contrary, it is nature” (Memories, Dreams, Reflections, 1961, p. 186). On the face of it, Jungian psychology with its emphasis on image seems to be uniquely suited to interact and dialogue with art as a kindred endeavor involved in exploration of and relationship with images and psyche. However as recent assessment suggests this has not been the case. As Francesco Donfrancesco put it poignantly at the 2003 IAAP conference in Cambridge: Analytical psychology, when not ignoring art, has assumed towards it a generally dismissive attitude of patient and ill- disguised superiority. …Analytical psychology has often colluded with dominant ideology in devaluing the cognitive power of images. ...Progress has been deemed to lie in going beyond images, leaving them behind to arrive at concepts. Reducing artistic output to symptoms of unconscious processes, exercising itself on works of art as ‘in corpore vile,” analytical psychology has belittled them by constraining them to fit the categories it employs, instead of exposing to transformation its own categories and its own language. (2003, p. 655). This conference is an important and timely effort to address and correct these matters and prepare ground for change in the relationship of Jungian psychology to art. It is useful to remind ourselves about the essentials so well expressed in our conference motto: “It is as if we did not know, or else continually forgot, that everything of which we are conscious is an image, and that image is psyche” (Jung, 1967/1983, para.
