A review by henryarmitage
Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious by C.G. Jung
3.0
A weighty tome. Sometimes gets bogged down in mysticism and
topics like alchemy, astrology and the I Ching. In a few
cases the material on common archetypes gave me insights into
my dreams. I find I have to read this type of material with a
critical eye as there are little nuggets of meaning, but also
a lot of weird and exotic ideas that may briefly seem exciting
but don't lead anywhere.
