The archetypes of human experience which derive from the deepest
unconscious mind and reveal themselves in the universal symbols of
art and religion as well as in the individual symbolic creations of
particular people are, for C. G. Jung, the key to the cure of
souls, the cornerstone of his therapeutic work. This volume
explains the function and origin of these symbols. Here the reader
will find not only a general orientation to Jung's point of view
but extensive studies of the symbolic process and its integrating
function in human psychology as it is reflected in the
characteristic spiritual productions of Europe and Asia. Violet de
Laszlo has selected for inclusion in Psyche and Symbol five
selections from Aion: "The Ego," "The Shadow," "The Syzygy: Anima
and Animus," "The Self," and "Christ, A Symbol of the Self." The
book continues with "The Phenomenology of the Spirit in Fairy
Tales," "The Psychology of the Child Archetype," and
"Transformation Symbolism in the Mass." Also included are the
foreword to the Cary Banes translation of the I Ching, two chapters
from Synchronicity: An Acausal Connecting Principle, "Psychological
Commentary on The Tibetan Book of the Dead," and "Commentary on The
Secret of the Golden Flower."
