Book Description

1982
The author draws from the collective wisdom of the great psychologists, particularly Jung, to create a guide to the language of symbols. Just as we dream without being necessarily aware of our dreams, so our waking life is full of symbolism operating on an unconscious level. This book describes the major characteristics that recur in all symbolic material. By identifying them, readers may identify patterns and processes at work in their own minds, and in doing so learn to explore, develop and transform their psyches.

5.0 out of 5 stars A world of meaning, August 14, 2010
Tom Chetwynd's volume is a great reference , for traditional and less traditional symbolic meanings of archetypal images , objects , places etc. Very handy and direct , simple to read. I t will give you a good start if you are a student ,an artist, or a lay person looking for a deeper meaning behind the image.
