Book synopsis

Carl Jung can be seen as the prototypical ecopsychologist. Volume II of The Dairy Farmer's Guide to the Universe explores how Jung's life and times created the context for the ecological nature of Jungian ideas. It is an ecopsychological exercise to delineate the many dimensions of Jung's life that contributed to creation of his system-his basic character, nationality, family of origin, difficulties in childhood, youthful environment, period in Western culture, and his pioneering position in the development of modern psychology. Jung said every psychology is a subjective confession, making it important to discover the lacuna in Jung's character and in his psychological system, particularly in relation to Christianity. Archetypically redressing the lacuna leads to the creation of a truly holistic, integrated ecological psychology that can help us live sustainably on this beautiful planet.------------ Front Cover: Jung's relief carving on the side of his Bollingen Tower, a place he associated with Merlin. The inscription reads, "May the light arise, which I have borne in my body." The woman reaching out to milk the mare is Jung's anima as "a millennia-old ancestress." The image is an anticipation of the Age of Aquarius, which is under the constellation of Pegasus. The feminine element is said to receive a special role in this new eon. Jung imagined the inspiring springs that gush forth from the hoof prints of Pegasus, the "fount horse," to be associated with the Water Bearer, the symbol of Aquarius.---------------- Dennis L.
