An exploration of spirituality in the modern world using Carl Jung's insights Jung believed that a spiritual life lies buried in everyone's unconscious and could be brought before consciousness with therapeutic results and that rationality and hubris prevented many in the modern world from acknowledging the spiritual aspects of our lives, and repressing the spiritual was as harmful as repressing the sexual. This book contains a series of chapters which explore the applications and ramifications of Jung's psychospiritual theory. Starting with how to bring back spirituality into religion, it then looks at the activation of 'earth energies' and the primordial mind by bringing the spirit back into nature. It proceeds to examine the spiritual journey, dreams, the individuation of god, and the healing power of spirituality.
Industry Reviews

"Tacey has crafted a masterful guide for navigating the evolving spiritual landscape. By blending Jungian insights with indigenous wisdom, he fosters a deeper reverence for the earth. His synthesis of tradition and innovation provides us with a transformative vision of spirituality as a force for personal growth and global healing. This book is an indispensable resource for scholars, practitioners, and seekers wanting meaningful engagement with the sacred and a deeper understanding of the interplay of spirituality and human experience."
Lucy Huskinson, Professor of Philosophy at Bangor University (U.K.) and author of Architecture and the Mimetic Self



"David Tacey's work on Jung and spirituality is outstanding, and widely recognised as such. Over many years, he has developed a unique and profound body of work on these themes. In this exciting and significant book, he gathers his ideas together in one place in a succinct and eloquent manner. I anticipate a wide readership for this volume, which it surely deserves."
Andrew Samuels, author of Jung and the Post-Jungians



"Tacey provides a wonderfully organised and thorough overview of Jung's views on human spirituality and religion, with special relevance for our contemporary social and ecological crises. The relevance of his own background living in central Australia will be a special highlight for many readers. While he brings with him a lifetime of scholarship in the field, much of it is lightly held as this book is accessible to people just beginning Jungian studies."
Roger Brooke, Professor Emeritus Duquesne University, Pittsburgh.



"This is a wise, generous, and beautiful book. David Tacey is one of our most important academic and cultural commentators on the state of contemporary religiousness and spirituality, especially in relation to the work of C. G. Jung, and in Jung and Spirituality he distils his insights from several decades of comprehensive inquiry. Passionate yet clear-minded, Tacey conveys in always-accessible prose the seriousness, complexity, and depth of Jung's influential contributions to this area of perennial as well as pressing concern in our lives."
Professor Roderick Main, Department of Psychosocial and Psychoanalytic Studies, University of Essex



"A powerful addition to the canon of David's life work exploring the depths of Jung's work and its relevance to our modern spiritual crisis. Full of thought-provoking insights and revelations, it is an important work in the crowded field of Jung studies with urgent relevance to these times of great unravelling."
Edward Watts, BAFTA and Emmy award-winning filmmaker
