Tarot and the Archetypal Journey by Sallie Nichols
“This book will help you use tarot as an interactive roadmap for your own archetypal journey.” —from the new foreword by Mary K. Greer, author of Tarot for Your Self and many other books on tarot In this new edition of the classic work on Tarot and Jungian symbolism, Sallie Nichols demonstrates how to approach any Tarot deck via the archetypes and Jung's methods of word association, active imagination, and dialogue. Nichols explores symbolic meanings relevant to everyone and lessons regarding the human condition, psychological states, and attitudes that can lead to genuine personal insight. Through analogies to the humanities, mythology, and the graphic arts, the significance of the cards is related to personal growth and what Jung termed "individuation." The Major Arcana becomes a map of life, and the hero's journey becomes something that each individual can relate to one's personal life. First published nearly forty years ago as Jung and Tarot, this edition includes a new in-depth foreword by Mary K. Greer, one of today's most trusted Tarot authorities.
Sallie Nichols (1908-1982) was a teacher at the C. G. Jung Institute, Los Angeles and a frequent lecturer at Jungian organisations throughout California. A long-time student of Jung's psychology, she had the good fortune to study at the C. G. Jung Institute in Zurich while Jung was still alive and active. Mary K. Greer is a highly regarded tarot scholar, teacher and author.
