Jung's Library

“The main content of Jung’s private library was contemporary literature of the 19th and 20th century, mainly about medicine, psychiatry, psychology and philosophy. Additionally there are a great number of books on antique cultures, gnosis, christian symbols, eastern religion, ethnology and occultism. The library also contains a collection of about 300 rare books (printed before 1800) on alchemy, theurgy and kabbala, as well as antique literature on dreams, writings of church fathers and of the latin and greek classic.”

In January 1925 Jung visited the Pueblo Indians in Taos, New Mexico.  He was influenced in two ways by this trip. One related to how ‘whites’ think with their head as opposed to how Indians think with their heart. He had a discussion with a person named Mountain Lake. In this Jung learned much about the role of the sun in Pueblo religion and cosmology. This is reflected in the Septem Sermones, his encounter with Ammonius and Izdubar.
