Mysterium coniunctionis

by Carl Gustav Jung

Bollingen Series XX s/t: An Inquiry into the Separation & Synthesis of Psychic Opposites in Alchemy 'What Jung has to convey is so truly original & so far-ranging in its implications that I suspect that this book will be a real challenge even to those most psychologically sophisticated. What he here presents in rich & documented detail can perhaps best be described as an anatomy of the objective psyche...Broadly speaking it is a treasury of images pertaining to the individual's discovery of the self...Mysterium Coniunctionis is a splendid capstone to the life work of a master spirit.'--Edward F. Edinger, Journal of Analytical Psychology Editorial Note Translator's Note List of Plates Foreword The components of the coniunctio The paradoxa The personification of the opposites Rex & Regina Adam & Eve The conjunction Epilogue Appendix: Latin & Greek Texts Bibliography Index Table of Paragraph Correlations
