"Aion," originally published in German in 1951, is one of the
major works of Jung's later years. The central theme of the volume
is the symbolic representation of the psychic totality through the
concept of the Self, whose traditional historical equivalent is the
figure of Christ. Jung demonstrates his thesis by an investigation
of the Allegoria Christi, especially the fish symbol, but also of
Gnostic and alchemical symbolism, which he treats as phenomena of
cultural assimilation. The first four chapters, on the ego, the
shadow, and the anima and animus, provide a valuable summation of
these key concepts in Jung's system of psychology.
