40: Carl Jung & Alchemy • Part II: River of Gold

Beneath the surface of Western history––deep within its cavernous tunnels––flows a river of gold. On this episode we explore the essential concepts of alchemy, alchemical artwork, Jung's theory regarding the projection of unconscious material, inexplicable dreams with alchemical symbolism, the paradox of consciousness & matter, and the unique role of revelation in alchemy. In the end, we return to The Red Book to track down a special passage which seems to prove Dr. Jung tapped into alchemy through his active imagination method seven years before officially studying it. ∞∞∞∞∞ Read my Rudiments of Alchemy article and view the Splendor Solis gallery here: https://mjdorian.com/alchemy/ Join the Creative Codex mailing list: https://mjdorian.com/mail/ ∞∞∞∞∞ Support Creative Codex on my Patreon and get access to exclusive episodes, including the Kurt Cobain series and all the Episode Exclusives:  https://www.patreon.com/mjdorian Buy me a coffee or add to my fancy books fund on Venmo: https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3235189073379328069&created=1681912456.228596&printed=1 ∞∞∞∞∞ View a transcript of this episode here: https://mjdorian.com/transcripts/ ∞∞∞∞∞ Cover art: detail of Plate 4 from Splendor Solis (1553) ----------- Research Sources: • Memories, Dreams, Reflections by Carl Jung • The Red Book by Carl Jung • Psychology and Alchemy by Carl Jung • Alchemical Studies by Carl Jung • Man & His Symbols by Carl Jung • Alchemy by Marie Louise von Franz • Alchemical Imagination by Jeffrey Raff • Splendor Solis by Salomon Trimsosin • Atalanta Fugies by Michael Maier • Spagyrics by Jean Dubuis ———— Audio Editor: Marisa Ferdenzi (Check out Marisa's band, Citygirl: https://www.instagram.com/citygirlband/ ) Bob the Law-Bot ad: Glen Vivaris (Follow Glen's escapades here: https://www.instagram.com/glenmakes/ ) All Music by MJDorian Written & Produced by MJDorian ———— Thank you to my Dream Maker tier!
