The Key to Understand C. G. Jung Paperback – August 11, 2025

Philosopher's stone, conjunction of opposites, uniting symbol, phenomena of assimilation and transcendent function are but a few examples of the hermetic terminology that C. G. Jung used when speaking about the psychological phenomena appearing during the individuation process. The issue that the reader faces is that the meaning of those terms has not been comprehended by anyone up until now. To reach their significance, we need a key that could reveal the message that Jung intended to convey. This KEY exists and it is disclosed in this enlightening book.The KEY appears on a few artefacts from Jung and is particularly clear on a cubic stone that C. G. Jung carved in 1950 in his Bolligen retreat on lake Zurich. On it, he inscribed texts in greek and latin as well as multiple astrological symbols. Its message was intended for future generations of seekers to help them understand Jung's psychology. When deciphered, this stone is the key to understand the most difficult concepts of his psychology. It reveals the meaning of the conjunction of opposites and the transcendent function which are the core of Jung's psychology on the individuation process. The Bolligen stone also reveals what Jung found in his study of Gnosticism and alchemy.Jungian specialist Benoit Rousseau guides the reader through the labyrinth of alchemy and Gnosticism and decodes Jung’s most complex concepts of Analytical Psychology. The culmination of over twenty years of research in Jungian studies, The Key to Understand C. G. Jung, identifies and examines the symbol of conjunction of opposites which appears during the individuation process.Among many subjects, the book answers those questions:· How and why Gnosticism and alchemy are so important to Jung?· Why did Jung hide his essay The Transcendent Function for 42 years?· What is the phenomenon of conjunction of opposites?· What is the core subject of Jung’s book AION?. What is Jung's secret experience that was only revealed in the 1925 Seminar?This book is intended to the reader who wants to fully understand the core of C. G. Jung's teachings.. Read more
