5.0 out of 5 stars A Jungian page-turner? You bet..., March 6, 2003

This review is from: Awakening Woman: Dreams and Individuation (Studies in Jungian Psychology By Jungian Analysts, 101) (Paperback)

Having read Nancy Qualls-Corbet's first book, The Sacred Prostitute, I am familiar with the author's passionate research into her subject matter and her ability to make the learning curve an eye opener. Awakening Woman:Dreams and Individuation is a true story in which the analysis process is fascinating. The writing and collaboration of the analyst and the analysan seems flawless to me in how it holds/flows together as one. Nancy, the analyst, takes "Leila's" beautifully honest,courageous journal entries and pointedly symbolic dreams as they arise within the telling of the story and explains to the reader in simple, brief paragraphs the symbolic language of the unconscious and the processing of that rich material. Reader-friendly Jung that keeps you turning page after page as any well-written mystery! The book is a testimony of the truths held otherwise as captive psychological jewels never to be worn until first woven into the ongoing dialogue of the dream plane. Brought into light (consciousness) they become integrated into the living of one's "Me". This book once again lays open the evidence of freedom that comes from Jungian dream therapy.

Men interested in exploring their own feminine aspect will benefit from this text because of its insights into individuation from a woman's perspective. Also, the book is a small treasure of insights into the craft and art of dream interpretation.

This review is from: Awakening Woman: Dreams and Individuation (Studies in Jungian Psychology By Jungian Analysts, 101) (Paperback)

Forgive the title word,"Individuator". I happen to feel that "Analysand" is not a good term for the analyst's partner in the process. This book gives a nice balance to the two participants in the individuation process, allowing each to present their experiences during the process.
