Jung and the Native American Moon Cycles describes the life of C. G.
Jung as seen through the lens of the Moon Cycles, a Native American
teaching about the arche-typal influences and forces that affect us at
different times in our lives. Through this lens we see how the rhythm of
Jung's life coincided with the great events of the 20th century.
This book offers new insights into Jung's life and death, and provides a
fascinating perspective on some of Jung's more important dreams. It also
unexpectedly casts new light on Jung's fateful associations with Freud
and Picasso and the controversial areas of his life, particularly his
relationships with women and his supposed anti-Semitism. Michael Owen
also shows how readers will be able to place the events of their own
lives on the Moon Cycles of the Native American Medicine Wheel, gaining
a new perspective into the births and deaths in their life (inner and
outer). They will see what learning periods are ahead of them, and
understand the critical importance of the nine-month and three-year
cycles.
Some of the patterns of time and other insights revealed:
- * Freud died twenty-seven years almost to the day after he fainted in
Jung's presence and said How sweet it must be to die.
- * Jung dreamt of the firebombing of Dresden twenty-seven years before
it happened.
- * Jung's writings about Picasso and its relationship to Jung's death.
