 +<fc green>I found this book interesting but not one of von Franz's better ones in my view.  The approach to inquiry of the topic is - as she mentions on page xiv, (1) depth psychology, (2) dreams, (3) alchemical symbolism, and to a lesser degree (4) spiritualism, parapsychological research.  The topic of course is not easy.  Much of the discussion is sustained by the alchemical and egyptian themes from the Komarios text,</fc> p27 "...on of the oldest texts of Graeco-Egyptian alchemy, dating back to the first century." <fc green>It is difficult to find any copy or more information on the Komarios text...which is annoying.</fc>
