Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Getting in touch with unconscious
Inner work means the effort by which we get in touch with unconscious. Life can be balanced only when the conscious mind is living in harmony with the unconscious. In the modern world we have acted as though there were no unconscious at all, fixating ourselves completely on the external, material world. The prejudices of the ego are our sole rulers, keeping the voices of the unconscious repressed.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Spiritual How-To Book
Better than work with several Jungian therapists - in my experience, this book is the real deal. After a succinct summary of the conscious and unconscious parts of one's being, this fine book provides a pathway between the two via working with dreams and active imagination.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Book, Poor Paper
I agree with most of the positive reviews on this book. The author is an excellent writer, and the contents of this book are excellent.

My recommendation to the writer is to find another publisher in the future.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Perfect Book for learning Active Imagination
This book is a fantastic guide to doing Active Imagination. If you are new to the ideas of Carl Jung, this book has the introduction that you need.

I found that although dreams and day-dreams seem to be nothing ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent work for delving into the unconscious
I really liked this book! Tons of info, personal experiences and suggestions are within on how to work with the unconscious mind in a healthy way. great for magicians, witches, sorcerers and lay folk alike!
