When Carl Jung embarked on an extended self-exploration he called it his “confrontation with the unconscious,” the heart of it was The Red Book, a large, illuminated volume he created between 1914 and 1930. Here he developed his principle theories—of the archetypes, the collective unconscious, and the process of individuation—that transformed psychotherapy from a practice..more

It's an intellectual tour de force that defines the struggle between reason and science and the irrational nonsense that remains undefined and unknown by the conscience rationality that represses a greater truth.

I couldn't sleep last night, as inspired as I was having begun to read Carl Jung's Liber Novus, his 'Red Book.' My first impression is that this is a massive tome; at 16x12x2' it is easily the largest book I've ever laid hand on, and just turning the pages takes a substantial effort. But it's well worth it.
The Liber Novus is Jung's account of his decades long process of psychological and subconscious self experimentation, through a technique called 'active imagination;' a process that..more

Only a few books read in a lifetime actually change you. Can you honestly say you are a different person after the work is absorbed? I feel that my cells have been re-charged with a new vitality.
The Red Book is a lovingly inscribed and illustrated account of a deep inner journey into the heart of god, spirituality, mythology, and primarily the depths that Jung called the Shadow. Within only a few pages I was struck by many synchronicities - (another term coined by Jung) - specific details that c..more

This was described when I ordered it as a facsimile edition of Jung's notebooks.
That is not at all the case. It is a typed and annotated version of his text, without the pictures. Since both Jung and the editor are discussing the images, trying to read a book about pictures one hasn't seen seems fairly pointless. The only use I can see for this volume is as a neatly printed read-long for someone who does have a facsimile edition.
Already the Book has broaden my feel for a man whose works i spent 10 years reading. This is 2/3 of the collected works. My dreams intensified by just looking at the paintings of really a remarkable and underrated visual artist. It might be the sequel to Blake's 'Island in the moon' in spirit and not an reference to the style. It changes the meaning of that Blake's work for me. CGJ has always been a path of precognative and synchronistic experience. I don't see how it cannot alter the reader or..more
I have no idea how to rank this book, nor am I even quite sure what the hell I read.
Although I know a little German, I read the accompanying English text. However one thing is certain, the experience was powerful, and the impact of the combination of the hand lettering, calligraphy and the careful illuminations with a bewildering flood of psychic imagery is something not to be forgotten.
Here's a sample:

An interrupted read--this book is so personal and ephemeral, a blakean diary of personal discovery, completely inside one man's symbol system, written for himself. I'm about a third of the way through the body of the text--there's also a long introduction. It's already inspired me to go back to keeping a dream journal, to think of what my own 'red book' would be. Dream life has become extremely active. But it lacks any quality of suspense or forward motion. I have a friend who has the big book--..more

Beautiful Beautiful book. Jung was truly a talented man, who was and is respected in his field.

Interested in symbolism, mythology and archetypes, I started reading Jung in my 20's. When this book came out, I had to own it, despite the price and its huge size. The timing is good for me, being in my early 50's and trying to let go of whom I think (or others think) I should be, versus being who I am. This book was Jung's personal diary as he struggled with integrating his own 'dark side' and was kept from publication by his family for many years. Just the act of reading it - propped awkwardl..more
Yes, for us Carl Jung fans this book is the Grail, but really it is kind of a let down. Aesthetically this book is the revelation all of us hoped it would be. The paper, the typography, the reproductions are scrumptious. (Yes, I ate them.)
But there is a little bit of the presentation that leaves me head scratching. There is sort of this 'introduction to Carl Jung,' section and I think to myself, why would anyone interested in this book need an introduction to Carl Jung? And let's be serious: th..more
Opening this book is like entering a magical world of wonders. It is an adventure in and of itself.
I am so glad the public can finally see this notebook.
I even think the size serves the purpose: a very large volume comparable to some kind of rare Medieval book that you would need a beautifully ornate lectern for!!!
And then there is the text, illuminated as it is.. it is more powerful.

Clearly Nietzschean, inspired by esoteric Christianity, alchemy and Tarot and written by a spirit different (perhaps stronger) than Nietzsche. Some of Jung's ideas are delelopped in Meyrink's work as well. A piece of experimental psychology with a touch of Medievalism in it. I'm not very fond of the parodical and satirical pages.

What an amazing book! The historical background, the high-quality copy of original calligraphy & drawings, the interpretive notes, and, of course, the penetrations of Jung during his descent into the soul. From opening pages: 'The spirit of the depths has subjugated all pride and arrogance to the power of judgment. He took away my belief in science, he robbed me of the joy of explaining and ordering things, and he let devotion to the ideals of this time die out in me. he forced me down to th..more

A totally unexpected present from my mother who can now do no wrong. It's a gorgeous book, the paper is sublime and the images beautifully, exquisitely printed. Divine in both senses of the word. This is by far the most precious book in my library and I doubt whether much else could usurp it.
This book is one of the most important documents of the soul of the twentieth century. For anyone interested in psychology it is a must-read.

Although I believe the effect of and my opinion of this book will better develop over time, I can convey a basic imprint. Jung created this book over several decades, nurturing it with the same care and privacy as one gives to their diary. Few people read it during his lifetime, though some tailored excerpts made there way into others of his publications. The writing tone of this work highly contrasts that of his books and lectures, being more an attempt at creative literature or myth, much in t..more
I read an article about this book and Carl Jung in the New York Times Magazine, and I'm dying to read it now. This is a facsimile of a book that Jung wrote and illustrated in which he recorded his dreams and visions when he went through some sort of psychotic breakdown, and it sounds both completely bizarre and absolutely fascinating. If you look at the book on Amazon, you can see some of the images; they look like something out of a cross between Lord of the Rings and some ancient and obscure r..more

Would you like to take a spiral staircase down to the realm of the soul? Because in a nutshell that is what Jung has done in these pages.
Jung is popularly known for coining the term 'synchronicity” and he is the founder of analytical psychology. I first heard about The Red Book many years ago when it was featured on the cover of The New York Times Magazine. I read the article and was left fascinated.
In The Red Book, Jung has willingly entered into the realm of the unconscious and into conversat..more
Astounding. I found myself investing a lot of myself into Jung's journey through the unconscious, and like many other reviewers, have found myself affected on a deep level after taking the journey. A deep, mesmerising account of the figures and archetypes met by Jung, over the course of several years, a combination of visions, dreams, fantasies and allegory woven together into a rich, moving, living work. This is not like most of Jung's work, so anybody expecting an analytical or 'clinical' appr..more
This is one of the most beautifully produced books I've ever seen, held and read. It really is an extraordinary work of art and its content gives an insight into the mind and spirit of someone who guided societies emerging ideas about what constitutes the Mind as opposed to the Brain.

What dead souls lie under your sunken tired eyes? What true selves have you let die within yourself? -Carl Jung
I’ll bring this book with me in my heart for the rest of my life. Some of the time I think I needed to be able to read Jung's mind, but eventually the bits that came together were lovely. This book, by carl jung is about his own journey through depression while trying to treat himself, and hover over his own psychosis without letting it take over his mind completely. What a gift to be..more
Awesome stuff. Real and uneditted (except for the forward, of which I skipped. I hate it when folks interpret something before I even read it). But the actual Red Book is raw. Just how I like Jung, and books in general. Raw and edgy is always my cup of tea. And yes, he really did go bonkers. That is evident in his writing. I wonder if that is why the estate held on to this sooooo long and gave the excuse that it was Jung's wishes. His contributions are astronomical so knowing about his dark nigh..more
This book publishes a large, unknown collection of paintings that the psychologist Carl Jung painted in the privacy of his study during the closing decades of his life. They represent an immense contribution to students of depth psychology and the spirit in that they dimensionalize his concept of the 'archetypes' and the 'collective unconscious' to a terrifying extent. The book reproduces Dr. Jung's handwritten German manuscript, but much of it is well introduced for those who do not read German..more
A titanic, original composition by a titanic, original mind. The paintings are fascinating. The pages and pages of gorgeous, careful, and strange calligraphy are captivating. Jung had his own reasons for chronicling his dreams and visions. For me, decades later, perusing this book made me rethink some of my own premises about what constitutes fiction and how the imagination can work. THE RED BOOK isn't for everyone. But if you're the least bit curious about Jung, archetypes, or your own unconsci..more
I have no business spending over $100 buck on this thing. None. It's irresponsible. I have no business even LISTING this book, as I will like not read it in the way that one normally READS a book. I will simply dabble in it the ways I might dabble in Consumer Reports or the new Levenger catalog. Quoting it the ways I might quote Naked Lunch (which, come to think of it, I finally did read). So, no, I should. But I do. And I will. And I WANT it PLEASE-SOMEBODY-GET-IT-FOR-MEEEEEEEE!
This was an amazing book. After reading most of Jung's voluminous writings, which (other than MDR) tended to be scholarly works, the personal touches in The Red Book Liber Novus, made Jung come alive for me. In many ways it validates my choice of depth psychology for a career. Jung was a mystic and a visionary. I think this book is almost required reading for anyone who wants to study the man and his work.
After years of waiting, I finally got to look through a real copy of it at my friend's house on a recent trip to ny--believe the hype!

I first bought the large edition with its facsimiles of Jung's artwork and calligraphy. Truly, I was mesmerized (and bewildered) by the colorful artwork and precise calligraphy in both German and Latin. I tried to read Sonu Shamadasani's introduction in the back of the book, but it was too large to manipulate. Finally, someone clued me in that a Reader's Edition existed. This was manageable and utterly essential to my marking the important parts of the text and underlining Shamadasani's introduc..more

Memories, Dreams, Reflections is the more accessible book on Jung's inner life by far. To get through The Red Book, a trio of friends formed, and we read it together, an hour to ninety minutes at a time, once a week, for month after month. I found it at times wonderful, at times utterly frustrating, at times too full of Christian imagery and at times refreshingly freeing of it. In the end the wisdom wins out.

While this is the man--half philosopher, half mystic--who provided us with many of the concepts we use today to explain consciousness and spirituality; and this is the man who entered the ring against that titan Sigmund Freud to convince him that psychoanalysis had a place for the concept of the soul, I wonder how on earth did his most private musings, his dream journal, his doodles of his inner fantasies--how did they end up s..more

“Be silent and listen: have you recognized your madness and do you admit it? Have you noticed that all your foundations are completely mired in madness? Do you not want to recognize your madness and welcome it in a friendly manner? You wanted to accept everything. So accept madness too. Let the light of your madness shine, and it will suddenly dawn on you. Madness is not to be despised and not to be feared, but instead you should give it life..If you want to find paths, you should also not spurn madness, since it makes up such a great part of your nature..Be glad that you can recognize it, for you will thus avoid becoming its victim. Madness is a special form of the spirit and clings to all teachings and philosophies, but even more to daily life, since life itself is full of craziness and at bottom utterly illogical. Man strives toward reason only so that he can make rules for himself. Life itself has no rules. That is its mystery and its unknown law. What you call knowledge is an attempt to impose something comprehensible on life.” — 346 likes
“My soul, where are you? Do you hear me? I speak, I call you - are you there? I have returned, I am here again. I have shaken the dust of all the lands from my feet, and I have come to you, I am with you. After long years of long wandering, I have come to you again. Should I tell you everything I have seen, experienced, and drunk in? Or do you not want to hear about all the noise of life and the world? But one thing you must know: the one thing I have learned is that one must live this life. Do you still know me? How long the separation lasted! Everything has become so different. And how did I find you? How strange my journey was! What words should I use to tell you on what twisted paths a good star has guided me to you? Give me your hand, my almost forgotten soul. How warm the joy at seeing you again, you long disavowed soul. Life has led me back to you. Let us thank the life I have lived for all the happy and all the sad hours, for every joy, for every sadness. My soul, my journey should continue with you. I will wander with you and ascend to my solitude.” — 69 likes
