Aion, originally published in German in 1951, is one of the major works of Jung's later years. The central theme of the volume is the symbolic representation of the psychic totality through the concept of the Self, whose traditional historical equivalent is the figure of Christ. Jung demonstrates his thesis by an investigation of the Allegoria Christi, especially the fish symbol, but also of Gnostic and alchemical symbolism, which he treats as phenomena of cultural assimilation. The first four chapters, on the ego, the shadow, and the anima and animus, provide a valuable summation of these key concepts in Jung's system of psychology.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Much of the material in this book and many of the conclusions are fascinating. There is a great deal here to illustrate the background of modern mysticism and much which the reader, of whatever orientation, will regard as insight." (Psychiatric Quarterly)

"Aion contains some of Jung's most advanced thinking on the integrative principles of the psyche, and on the relation of matter to the symbolic processes of the collective unconscious. This is difficult ground to explore, but those who attempt the journey will find that their horizons have been surprisingly widened." (Psychosomatic Medicine)

central to Jung's teaching

September 25, 2012

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

After studying the collected works for 20 years, and reading many Jungians, I've formed the opinion that this book is the linchpin of Jung's entire psychology. You won't get any closer to understanding his basic ideas than right here. The alchemical part of the book is quite arcane and not quite suited for Jung rookies, but the basics in this book make it essential.

It's a great book I understand what Jung is talking about but at the same time I always need a dictionary by my side because the wording in this book is very deep, overall great book!

This is the first Jung I have ever read. It's an intriguing guide and opening experience. Without a doubt I recommend this book. For me, and getting through it required remembering what it is not trying to be or do.

More good works from C. G. Jung.

August 6, 2014

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This book is part of the full works of Jung and is fascinating to read if the study of psychology is part of your interests. I won't review Jung's views, as a serious treatment should be reserved for scholars to review instead of me. So read and judge for yourself and maybe you'll enjoy it as much as I did.

Go slow to revel in the layers of historical research and analysis of our species. Jung was a monster at research and analysis and this goes to the top of his output. Difficult, at times, but truly worth the effort.

An exploration of the self

August 13, 2015

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Aion is a continuation of Jung's work in psychology. He explores the role of symbols in archetypes and how symbols are used to creation connection with archetypes, as well as exploring different aspects of a person's sense of self. I found the book to be useful for understanding Jung's contribution to psychology and why his work has continued to be significant. If you're interested in psychology or just want to understand Jung, this is a good book to pick up.
