Jung on Astrology

Like Carl Jung & Astrology. Jung's belief in symbolism & progressive nature, makes this very interesting.

Well schooled agnostic observations of astrology. Time span of writing shows skeptic and simpathetic leanings. Interesting pondering of mentally impared people turn their dream interpretations into creative artwork that he correlates to representing symbolism of astrological archetypes.

Loved it as an astrologer who grew up looking for Jung’s blessings as to astrology’s validity. This book goes deeply into his different and progressive viewpoints on the subject.

Lots of random flecks of truth that may be pursued further even though Jung is not my favorite psychologist for several reasons, I could still learn something from each page.

Very Good, amazing job. Digging across all Jung's collected work (focused just in astrology), thank you very much!

Jung s'est passionné, selon ses écrits, pour l'astrologie et y a consacré bien des études. Mais à quelle astrologie Jung s'intéressait-il? Cette étude ne permet pas de le savoir vraiment. Ses écrits sont avant tout de brefs extraits d'ouvrages ou de sa correspondance, mais il manque à l'appel un chapitre trapu qui permettrait de savoir, si, outre des perspectives philosophiques ou psychologiques générales, Jung la pratiquait.Car on n'en trouve aucune trace, ce qui est quand même curieux. Jung aurait-il été un astrologue "en fauteuil", tout semble l'indiquer dans cet ouvrage et il faut attendre sa fin pour trouver enfin un thème, celui de Jung, interprété par sa fille. Les tenants de l'astrologie "de pratique" resteront donc sur leur faim. Dire que les signes et planètes sont des archétypes, c'est bien, voir comment cela s'articule dans la pratique aurait quand même été un plus.... Après avoir été un alchimiste spéculatif, Jung aurait-il eu la même attitude pour l'astrologie, possible...

I guess you wouldn't purchase this book unless you have grown dissatisfied of the conventional religious story that good & evil are opposed metaphysical principles in everlasting conflict above and beyond human nature. For what C G Jung so convincingly discovered was that we are ourselves the source of all coming evil. If two world wars & the nuclear arms race haven't convinced you, we now have anthropogenic global warming as the inescapable evidence of the shadow of our species. This concise work, presenting Jung's deep & prescient insights into the nature of evil, also has a fine intro by Murray Stein.

A book to keep as reference for ever. Very relevant in these times. I would highly recommend it to anyone who prefers reading shorter, but highly referenced books.
