Rating:  - A Spiritual How-To Book
Better than work with several Jungian therapists - in my experience, this book is the real deal. After a succinct summary of the conscious and unconscious parts of one's being, this fine book provides a pathway between the two via working with dreams and active imagination.
Rating: - Great Book, Poor Paper
I agree with most of the positive reviews on this book. The author is an excellent writer, and the contents of this book are excellent.
But HarperOne should be ashamed of themselves regarding the quality of the physical book. The paper is so cheap that underlining is rough on the pages. This kind of cheapness is ruining the book business--it's like watching publishing self-destruct.
My recommendation to the writer is to find another publisher in the future.
Rating: - The Perfect Book for learning Active Imagination
This book is a fantastic guide to doing Active Imagination. If you are new to the ideas of Carl Jung, this book has the introduction that you need. I have used the techniques from this book on many occasions, and I know I will keep going back to it. Active Imagination has helped me in working with my compulsions and in understanding my bad habits. This is not a 'self-help' book with catchy slogans and common-sense rephrased kind of book. I found that although dreams and day-dreams seem to be nothing but nonsense, this book helps you to find the hidden treasures in that 'nonsense'.
Rating: - Excellent work for delving into the unconscious
I really liked this book! Tons of info, personal experiences and suggestions are within on how to work with the unconscious mind in a healthy way. great for magicians, witches, sorcerers and lay folk alike!
Rating: - On the unconscious
I have previously read only one book on dream interpretation and think this one is excellent. I've always steered away from dream interpretation because I thought they were too mental for me. I am by nature an intellectual and caught up in daydreaming most of the time anyway. But Johnson tells me to bring feeling and body into the interpretation process, and that I like.
He also warned against passive daydreaming concerning any real person for they will feel something over the collective unconscious. Compared inner work to marching around the walls of Jericho -- conquering a psychic center might take years of persistent work.
All in all: simple and concise. I recommend it.
