Produktbeschreibung
The Rose of Being by Gerry Anne Lenhart, Ph.D., blends Jung's four psychological functions (intuition, sensation, feeling, thinking) with luminous readings of Genesis, mandala symbolism, and cross-cultural myth. The Rose of Being offers a fresh, deeply human map of how consciousness forms-beginning in the womb archetype, moving through the split of ego and soul, and circling back toward wholeness in the Self. Along the way, Lenhart draws on Michael Fordham's developmental insights, the archetypes of the four archangels, Sumerian and Biblical narratives, and love-of-learning prose that invites both scholars and seekers to see their own story in the world's oldest stories. The result is part guidebook, part revelation: a gracefully argued model of individuation that readers can feel as well as understand-ideal for therapists, spiritual directors, book clubs, and anyone longing for a wiser inner compass. If you've ever suspected your life has mythic shape and meaning, this book shows you why-and how to live it.
