Nicole Lau: Jung's Psychological Alchemy

[Paul Ferguson]

"In the 20th century, Swiss psychologist Carl Jung (1875-1961) rediscovered alchemy as a map of psychological transformation.

Jung's insight: alchemists were projecting their unconscious psychological processes onto matter. The gold they sought was the integrated Self."
