A leading expert on the teachings of C.G. Jung explores the connection between mind and matter, drawing on classic Jungian themes like archetypes, dreams, synchronicity, and more Twelve essays by the distinguished analyst Marie-Louise von Franz—five of them appearing in English for the first time—discuss synchronicity, number and time, and contemporary areas of rapprochement between the natural sciences and analytical psychology with regard to the relationship between mind and matter.

Archetypal Dimensions of the Psyche
Author: Marie-Louise von Franz
Publisher: Shambhala Publications
ISBN: 0834829789
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 495
Book Description
The chief disciple of C. G. Jung, analyst Marie-Louise von Franz uses her vast knowledge of the world of myths, fairy tales, visions, and dreams to examine expressions of the universal symbol of the Anthropos, or Cosmic Man—a universal archetype that embodies humanity's personal as well as collective identity. She shows that the meaning of life—the realization of our fullest human potential, which Jung called individuation—can only be found through a greater differentiation of consciousness by virtue of archetypes, and that ultimately our future depends on relationships, whether between the sexes or among nations, races, religions, and political factions.

Number and Time
Author: Marie-Louise Von Franz
Publisher: Northwestern University Press
ISBN: 9780810105324
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
C. G. Jung's work in his later years suggested that the seemingly divergent sciences of psychology and modern physics might, in fact, be approaching a unified world model in which the dualism of matter and psyche would be resolved. Jung believed that the natural integers are the archetypal patterns that regulate the unitary realm of psyche and matter, and that number serves as a special instrument for man's becoming conscious of this unity. Writen in a clear style and replete with illustrations which help make the mathematical ideas visible, Number and Time is a piece of original scholarship which introduces a view of how "mind" connects with "matter" at the most fundamental level.

C. G. Jung and the Alchemical Imagination
Author: Stanton Marlan
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000317749
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
Winner of the 2021 American Board & Academy of Psychoanalysis Annual Book Prize for Best Theoretical Book in Psychoanalysis! Stanton Marlan brings together writings which span the course of his career, examining Jungian psychology and the alchemical imagination as an opening to the mysteries of psyche and soul. Several chapters describe a telos that aims at the mysterious goal of the Philosophers’ Stone, a move replete with classical and postmodern ideas catalysed by prompts from the unconscious: dreams, images, fantasies, and paradoxical conundrums. Psyche and matter are seen with regards to soul, light and darkness in terms of illumination, and order and chaos as linked in the image of chaosmos. Marlan explores the richness of the alchemical ideas of Carl Jung, James Hillman, and others and their value for a revisioning of psychology. In doing so, this volume challenges any tendency to literalism and essentialism, and contributes to an integration between Jung’s classical vision of a psychology of alchemy and Hillman’s Alchemical Psychology. C.G. Jung and the Alchemical Imagination will be a valuable resource for academics, scholars, and students of Jungian and post-Jungian studies, Jungian analysis, and psychotherapy. It will also be of great interest to Jungian psychologists and Jungian analysts in practice and in training.

Alchemical Active Imagination
Author: Marie-Louise von Franz
Publisher: Shambhala Publications
ISBN: 0834840790
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
A leading Jungian psychologist reveals the relationship between alchemy and analytical psychology, delving into the visionary work of a sixteenth-century alchemist Although alchemy is popularly regarded as the science that sought to transmute base physical matter, many of the medieval alchemists were more interested in developing a discipline that would lead to the psychological and spiritual transformation of the individual. C. G. Jung discovered in his study of alchemical texts a symbolic and imaginal language that expressed many of his own insights into psychological processes. In this book, Marie-Louise von Franz examines a text by the sixteenth-century alchemist and physician Gerhard Dorn in order to show the relationship of alchemy to the concepts and techniques of analytical psychology. In particular, she shows that the alchemists practiced a kind of meditation similar to Jung's technique of active imagination, which enables one to dialogue with the unconscious archetypal elements in the psyche. Originally delivered as a series of lectures at the C. G. Jung Institute in Zurich, the book opens therapeutic insights into the relations among spirit, soul, and body in the practice of active imagination.

Psyche, Matter and Crop Circles

Publisher: Nova Science Publishers
ISBN: 9781633215870
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
We tie the weaknesses of our knowledge with the tight knots of our truths. The idea of a psyche within and the world outside us is so evident and true that, from a tight knot, it became part of the fabric of our knowledge. Put in other words, our belief in separation and independence of psyche and matter is so natural and immediate that resists situations that challenge its veracity. These situations, in turn, held on to us and became new knots that are now part of our fabric of knowledge. We must face our fear of not knowing, loosening such knots in order to enrich with new motifs the composition of this fabric, which insists in opening up and expanding. The phenomenon of synchronicity and the discoveries of quantum physics compel us to re-evaluate our scientific truths based on deterministic parameters. Synchronicity, as described by Jung, is a connection between a psychic, subjective event, and an external physical event, according to its meaning and not due to cause and effect. Inserted into an acausal order, it raises questions on the relationship between psyche and matter. The findings of quantum physics also demand from us new ways of seeing reality. The psyche of the observer has proven crucial, affecting the results of experimentation with matter, pointing out once again the interaction of psyche and matter. How can we ignore these findings? We can say that physics has explored the objectivity of matter leading to the psychic, while depth psychology moved towards subjectivity and found objective patterns of the psyche, the archetypes that make up the collective unconscious.
