Deep, Poignant, Insightful and meaningful, 1 Dec 2004
By MadMonk - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Pregnant Virgin: A Process of Psychological Transformation (Studies in Jungian Psychology by Jungian Analysts) (Paperback)
I tend to get attracted by a sort of synchronicity or intuitive feeling to certain books that resonate with the current process of what I call my spiritual journey. This book is one of those I would cherish and remember, and refer to, and meditate upon it. It is not only writen by someone deeply in touch with psychological understanding but also by a person inmersed consciously on her spiritual path, or inner journey towards enlightnement or liberation or full awakening of consciousness as you wish to name this subtile and many times confusing path.
Marion Woodman had a sort of blockage on her path of writing this book and she finally realized that she was feeling somewhow affraid of not being able to unite her writing with feeling and her writing with psychological knowledge and insight. But she does a wonderful work by not only helping us with her deep understanding of the Psyche and its own language, but also, by opening her own heart and her own wounds to all of us, like she does in poignant chapter 7.
This book has helped me find and recognise more subtile layers of aspects of myself that needed to be aknowledged and liberated. Althought we sometimes seem to have accomplished major inner work, there's many times subtilities left that are blocking the way to integrity, wholeness, hapiness. This book came when I was uncovering unconscious aspects of my mother and my father's own wounds and how I had absorbed them as baby and child, integrating them in myself in a confusing mixture that didn't allow me to heal it because I couldnt find their root and thus I didn't understand their effect on me.
This whole summer's been an intense trip to the Underworld and books that also helped me where: The Dark Moon Goddess by Demetra George and Clarissa Pinkola Estés,Women Who Run With Wolves. Also, Anatomy of the Psyche by Edward Edinger since it explains the alchemical operations in terms of psychological processes and for some reason or other, I do resonate to this language and inner transformation process...

This review is from: The Pregnant Virgin: a Process of Psychological Transformation (Studies in Jungian psychology by Jungian analysts) (Hardcover)
A therapist friend encouraged me to read this book. I love Woodman's vision and understanding of the female psyche. It was quite enlightening.

So good I stayed home to read it for 4 days, 17 Dec 1999
By Brigitte - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Pregnant Virgin: A Process of Psychological Transformation (Studies in Jungian Psychology by Jungian Analysts) (Paperback)
This book spoke directly to me. I read it first in the mid 1980's, so much of the contents is now irretrievable, but I wanted to let other shoppers know how much this book helped me. I am so happy to find it again.
