Jung and the Alchemical Imagination explores the spiritual foundations of Jungian psychology and its deep roots in the esoteric religious tradition. Unlike many books that interpret alchemy solely through a psychological lens, Jeffrey Raff uses alchemy as a framework for understanding the three cornerstones of Jungian spirituality: the Self, the Transcendent Function, and Active Imagination.
Through the interpretation of alchemical imagery, Raff explains the significance of these three concepts and demonstrates how, together, they form a new model for contemporary Western spirituality. The book is also distinctive in its examination of relatively unknown alchemical texts, many of which have never before been interpreted.
