Structured around a series of lectures presented at the Jung Institute of Chicago in a program entitled Jungian Psychology and Human Spirituality: Liberation from Tribalism in Religious Life, this book-length essay attacks the related problems of human evil, spiritual narcissism, secularism and ritual, and grandiosity. Robert Moore dares to insist that we stop ignoring these issues and provides clear-sighted guidance for where to start and what to expect. Along the way, he pulls together many important threads from recent findings in theology, spirituality, and psychology and brings us to a point where we can conceive of embarking on a corrective course.
Traditional doctrinal and historical interpretation both rely heavily on rational analysis. But from the disciples at Emmaus to the beginnings of the present century, it has been the impact of scripture upon the human heart that has changed human lives. In recent decades, this impact has been strengthened by advances in linguistic and literary theory, by such disparate influences as feminism, structuralism, Jungianism, deconstructionism, the analysis of archaic imagery and myth, the recovery of Gnostic texts, and finally an openness to pluralism, whether ethnic, geographic, religious, or interpretive. All of these factors are treated here with a brevity and comprehensiveness which convincingly show that the reader of scripture has a creative and not merely passive role.
If you would understand the deepest roots of terrorism, greed, and religious fanaticism, read Facing the Dragon. But be forewarned: you may find some offshoots in your own garden.-June Singer, Jungian analyst, author of Boundaries of the Soul

Esta colección de quince ensayos sobre El libro rojo de C. G. Jung ilustra diferentes facetas de este visionario experimento. El libro rojo de Jung refleja un amplio espectro de agonías y desmembramientos de la agitación cultural en la que le tocó vivir, que reverbera con nuestra época turbulenta llena de incertidumbre. A través de este experimento, Jung navegó las profundidades, tanto personales como arquetípicas, enfrentando la oscuridad y la luz en el interior de su psique. Acogió esta labor por medio de la imaginación activa, la escritura y el dibujo. Al lidiar con este material, extrajo las semillas de oro y transformó la escoria. A través de estos trabajos, Jung trazó un mapa de la estructura de estas semillas (tanto de luz como de oscuridad), de las que siguió extrayendo y refinado sus escritos durante el resto de su vida. Las semillas de oro contenidas en este invaluable recurso que Jung nos heredó, siguen fructificando a través de las valiosas reflexiones de generaciones de estudiosos junguianos, incluyendo los autores de los quince ensayos traducidos al español para este volumen.
Barbara Hannah, Jungian analyst and author, explores Jung's method of active imagination, often considered the most powerful tool in analytical psychology for achieving direct contact with the unconscious and attaining greater inner awareness. Using historical and contemporary case studies, Hannah traces the human journey toward personal wholeness. This approach to confronting the unconscious is a healing process that applies to both men and women and deals in depth with the injured feminine as well as many powerful archetypal forces.
Encounters with the Soul is the first and only book I know of which can promote the understanding of 'active imagination' by illustrating through various examples, the steps, pitfalls and successes of this method of encountering the unconscious.
-Marie-Louise von Franz
Barbara Hannah (1891-1986) was born in England. She went to Z rich in 1929 to study with Carl Jung and lived in Switzerland the rest of her life.

Her books available from Chiron include The Archetypal Symbolism of Animals; Encounters with the Soul; Jung, His Life and Work: A Biographical Memoir; and Striving Toward Wholeness.
A Profound Method to Work with Dreams
In research at the University of Chicago, Dr. Gendlin found that certain specific bodily responses can open up and lead to small steps of a new experience. These bodily responses can indicate the steps for interpreting a dream.
Theories about dreams differ and give contradictory interpretations. Dr. Gendlin derives 16 questions from the many existing theories to aid you, the dreamer, in. the process of interpretation. In this book Dr. Gendlin teaches you to ask the questions so that your body can respond . You learn to recognize how it feels when a question is about to lead to a breakthrough. You learn to let the question complete itself so that the dream opens and you know without doubt what it is about.
The first stage is learning what the dream is about. But this alone may not yet tell you anything you did not know before.
The second stage is getting something new from the dream for your own development.
The BIAS CONTROL solves what was, until now, an insurmountable problem: People could not interpret their own dreams because they always imposed their usual biases on them. The BIAS CONTROL shows you how to open yourself to a new step.

Midlife = crisis, anger, & change...So pervasive has the general awareness of this phenomenon of midlife crisis and transformation become that as we approach this time of life we almost automatically begin to brace for a psychological emergency. Drawing on analytic experience, dreams, and myths, Murray Stein, a well-known analyst, formulates the three main features of the middle passage. First an erosion of attachments. Then hints of a fresh spirit, renegade and mischievous, that scoffs at routines. This new spirit disrupts life and alarms family and friends. Finally, with luck, a transformation occurs; life begins again.
Dr. Stein has written a best-selling, good-humored book, brimming with shrewd counsel and cultural relevance.

Compelling reading for anyone seeking the courage to make more conscious choices and live fully awake, The Necktie and The Jaguar is a memoir with thought-provoking questions that encourage self-exploration. Author Carl Greer-businessman, philanthropist, and retired Jungian analyst and clinical psychologist-offers an illuminating roadmap to individuation and personal transformation. Greer found security in conforming to the cultural expectations of a postwar, midwestern, middle-class upbringing after a childhood tragedy taught him to constrict his emotions. Becoming president of an independent oil and gas company, he drove his team to success and built his wealth only to find in midlife that his spiritual self was crying out for expression. Undergoing Jungian analysis and becoming an analyst himself offered some soul nourishment. So did studying and practicing martial arts, whose principles helped him navigate challenges in the world of work. Still, it wasn't until Greer took a deep dive into shamanic training and practice that he was able to embody the qualities and emotions he had long denied and turn his attention to philanthropy.
Writing about his spiritual practices and reflecting on his vulnerabilities, Greer tells of honoring his longings for purpose and meaning, journeying to transpersonal realms, reinventing his life, and devoting himself to service to others while living with deep respect for Pachamama, Mother Earth. His memoir is an inspirational testament to the power of self-discovery. As Carl Greer learned, you don't have to feel trapped in a story someone else has written for you.
The War of the Gods of Addiction, based on the correspondence between Bill W., one of the founders of Alcoholics Anonymous, and Swiss psychiatrist, C.G. Jung, proposes an original, groundbreaking, psychodynamic view of addiction. Using insights from Jungian psychology, it demonstrates why the twelve steps of AA really work.
It explores, through theoretical and clinical material, modern and ancient myths, and fairy tales, the crucial process of neutralizing the archetypal shadow / archetypal evil, an aspect of all true addictions. It also explains how dreams may be used in the diagnosis and treatment of addiction. This book bridges the longstanding gap between the mental health and twelve-step recovering communities in ways that significantly encourage mutual understanding and benefit. Previously published by Spring Journal.
The Broken Mirror: Refracted Visions of Ourselves explores the need to know ourselves more deeply, and the many obstacles that stand in our way. The various chapters illustrate internal obstacles such as intimidation by the magnitude of the project, the readiness to avoid the hard work, and gnawing self-doubt, but also provide tools to strengthen consciousness to take these obstacles on.
Additional essays address living in haunted houses, the necessity of failure, and the gift and limits of therapy.
Most of all, Hollis addresses the resources we all have within, or can obtain for ourselves, to lead a more abundant life and to step into larger possibilities for our unfolding journeys.
Ever Widening Circles and Mystical Moments is a long-awaited memoir by Jean Shinoda Bolen MD that invites readers to journey through a life interwoven with personal experiences and historical events. The book begins with Bolen's childhood, marked by her Japanese American family's forced relocation from California following the bombing of Pearl Harbor. This experience-along with her early eye surgery and frequent moves to different states and schools where she was perceived as an exotic other-deeply impacted Bolen's worldview and led her to pursue a career as an author, activist, psychiatrist, and Jungian analyst.
Throughout the memoir, Bolen examines the archetypes, synchronicities, and mystical moments that guided her life choices, including her decision to pursue medicine, her evolving relationship with spirituality, her work as a Jungian whistleblower and leader in the women's spirituality movement, and advocacy for circle gatherings as part of The Millionth Circle initiative. She candidly shares her personal challenges, including her brother's struggles after a birth injury, the complexities of her marriage, and her son's battle with neurofibromatosis. Bolen emphasizes the importance of finding meaning in life even amidst adversity. She encourages readers to embrace their authentic purpose, using her own experiences to illustrate the significance of love, gratitude, and the power of collective action.
![Mapa del Alma - Persona: NUESTRAS MUCHAS CARAS [Map of the Soul: Persona - Spanish Edition]](https://otimages.com/Bookcover/7885/9781630517885.jpg)
Hay un gran inter s en la cultura actual sobre la idea de Persona y el mapeo psicol gico del mundo interior. De hecho, el inter s es tan fuerte que la banda superestrella de pop coreano, BTS, ha tomado los conceptos del Dr. Murray Stein y los ha incluido en el t tulo y la letra de su ltimo lbum, Map of the Soul: Persona.
Cu l es nuestra personalidad y c mo afecta el viaje de nuestra vida? Qu m scaras usamos al involucrar a los que nos rodean? Nuestra personalidad es, en ltima instancia, c mo nos relacionamos con el mundo. Combinado con nuestro ego, sombra, nima y otros elementos intraps quicos, crea un mapa interno del alma.
T.S. Eliot, uno de los poetas ingleses m s famosos del siglo XX, escribi que cada gato tiene tres nombres: el nombre que todos conocen, el nombre que solo los amigos ntimos y la familia del gato conocen, y el nombre que solo el gato mismo conoce. Los seres humano, tambi n tenemos tres nombres: el nombre que todos conocen, que es la persona p blica; el nombre que solo conocen tus amigos y familiares cercanos, o sea tu persona privada; y el nombre que solo t conoces, que se refiere a tu ser m s profundo. Muchas personas conocen el primer nombre, y algunas personas conocen el segundo. Nos debemos preguntar Conozco mi nombre secreto, mi nombre individual, singular y nico? Este es el nombre que te dieron antes de que tu familia y tu sociedad te nombraran. Este nombre es el que nunca debes perder u olvidar. Lo sabes?
We live in times of uncertainty and anxiety. In these times, how can we best navigate our unknowns? Our Uncertain World answers that question through a Jungian prism. Carl Jung's theory has helped many people through difficult times. Jungian perspectives facilitate such challenging navigation by not simplifying complexity but rather by finding the meaningful through-lines that guide the individual toward individuation even in the darkest of times. Using Jung's unique multi-dimensional approach, this book offers insights and provides answers to questions about life in a state of three-dimensional flux.
Our Uncertain World was born from the premise that we are in a period of ongoing change. The interlocking crises of COVID, national polarization, environmental disaster, and international war can undermine or even destroy the symbols, rituals, and mental structures that give meaning and coherence to our lives. These crises are explored in depth In the book's three sections, Living with Personal Uncertainty over the Long Term, Social Turmoil: A Moment of Social change for Our Community and Our Nation, and Challenges Facing Our World: Grappling with the Environment, The Pandemic and War.
The authors of this book accompany the reader through the current challenges we face and examine new ways of adjusting to the existing condition of protracted uncertainty. The book encourages the reader to articulate their own challenges and develop their own language to
write, speak, and live within the reality of uncertain times. Our Uncertain World provides tools for individuals and groups to formulate new perspectives and life strategies for the current reality.

Who is killing off members of the Falconer family and why? Such is the challenge confronting highly skilled, extraordinarily intuitive Mary Wandwalker when she finds herself single, sixty and jobless. Long ago as an Oxford student with an unplanned pregnancy, Mary knew the Falconers as the family who refused to help when her fiancé, David Falconer died in a car crash. Now the baby boy she gave up for adoption is a policeman, George Jones, and he wants to meet her. Can Mary bring herself to confront her past? She must, for lost in her memory is a clue that could save her son's life.
Back in 1979, Mary wrote to the Falconers and was rejected. Now forty years later, key phrases from her letter appear in the faked suicide note of Perdita Falconer. Neither Perdita nor her killer had access to Mary's document. Too exact for coincidence, the link is the pseudonym of the drug dealer who supplied her fatal dose. He or she is known as the Kestrel.
When Mary was romanced by David Falconer in the 1970s, the Kestrel was codename for a Russian spy entertained at Falconer House. Could the resurrection of the nom de plume be connected to Viktor Solokov, the Russian oligarch renting the Falconer estate with his beautiful wife, Anna? For the Falconers have dark secrets, some centuries old.
When George Jones's wife Caroline begs Mary to save her husband from treacherous Anna, and the murderous talons of the Kestrel, Mary must act.
Aging-what it is and how it happens-is one of today's most pressing topics. Most people are either curious or concerned about growing older and how to do it successfully. We need to better understand how to navigate the second half of life in ways that are productive and satisfying, and Jungian psychology, with its focus on the discovery of meaning and continuous development of the personality is especially helpful for addressing the concerns of aging.
In March 2012, the Library of Congress and the Jung Society of Washington convened the first Jung and Aging Symposium. Sponsored by the AARP Foundation, the symposium brought together depth psychologists and specialists in gerontology and spirituality to explore the second half of life in light of current best practices in the field of aging. Featuring essays by James Hollis and Lionel Corbett, this volume presents the results of the day's discussion, with supplementary perspectives from additional experts, and suggests some practical tools for optimizing the second half of life.
These in-depth conversations with leading Jungian analysts and scholars-including Murray Stein, Ann Lammers, Paul Bishop, and David Tacey-explore C.G. Jung's lifelong wrestling with Christianity and its importance for us today. Can analytical psychology be understood as Jung's attempt to recover a genuine experience of being Christian? If so, was it successful?
Jakob Lusensky, in an accessible introduction and throughout these remarkable conversations with experts, pursues Jung's dreaming the myth onward not merely as a fact of history, a historical breakthrough in how and why we undertake analysis, but as a living fundament for people on the path of individuation today-with implications reaching far beyond the individual.
Wide-ranging and insightful, this collection is meant for Jungians (analysts, analysands, readers) for Christians (laypeople and leadership), and for any person anywhere likewise wrestling at the intersection of psychology and religion.

Recognized as a winner in the Applied Category of the American Board & Academy of Psychoanalysis' 2019 Book Awards. In The Bible as Dream, Murray Stein shares important themes and images in the biblical narrative that from a psychological perspective, stand out as essential features of the meaning of the Bible for the modern reader.
The Bible presents a world elaborated with reference to a specific God image. As the mythographer Karl Kerenyi puts it in writing about the Greek gods and goddesses, every god and every goddess constitutes a world. So it is too with the biblical God, whose name Stein exceptionally capitalizes throughout out of cultural respect. The biblical world is the visionary product of a particular people, the ancient Hebrews and the early Christians, who delved deeply into their God image and pulled from it the multitude of perspectives, rules for life, spiritual practices, and practical implications that all together created the tapestry that we find depicted in the canonical Bible. Yahweh is the heart and soul of this world, its creator, sustainer, and destroyer. The Bible is a dream that tells the story of how this world was brought into being in space and time and what it means.
Don't miss these timeless lectures--a work of respectful and loving interpretation.

The Best of James Hollis: Wisdom for the Inner Journey is a collection of excerpts from the writings of James Hollis, PhD, Jungian psychotherapist and author. These selections span across his body of work from The Middle Passage (1993) to Prisms (2021) organized into different topics ranging from the psychological concepts of Carl Jung to the everyday tasks of our living and callings. Hollis's wisdom will challenge readers to find their own path, to be who they are called to be, to take the risks to trust their soul, and thus live a life worthy of their unique gifts. Hollis's writings ask us to live a deeper and more authentic life.
Our fate is NOT written in the stars, as the popular form of interpreting horoscopes would like us to believe. Instead, a serious approach to astrology describes an individual's special dispositions and developmental possibilities that can be lived out in entirely different ways. The experienced Jungian analyst and astrologist Marianne Meister connects this reputable astrological approach with the theories of C.G. Jung's Analytical Psychology. In her Depth Psychological Astrology, she works out the various basic patterns of the personality and makes it possible for readers to discover their own inclinations, needs, and potential. This book shows that the experiential knowledge from astrology and depth psychology can be used like a roadmap as important help in orientation on the path of life.
