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.”

Here Jung talks to his soul about his search and journey before he found his soul.  The soul seems to be using the image of a child, a female child. How does God use the image of a child. Is God's name 'daughter of man'? 

Jung first saw his soul 14 years previously to this time. And his life was one seeking glory. He thought he has lost his soul but it was always with him. 

The day's entry ends with an awareness that the soul took away what Jung sought to hold and gave what he did not expect. Where he sowed, the harvest was robbed and when he did not sow the crop was fruitful.  "You upheld my belief, ....at every decisive moment you let me believe in myself."
