Dancing Between Two Worlds: Jung And The Native American Soul

In this thought-provoking and sensitive book, a noted Jungian scholar explores the deepest elements in the American psyche that need healing to bring forth the best in both of the worlds we walk in: the highly differentiated and technologically developed Western civilization and the indigenous native "soul" that is the essence of each human being. The author demonstrates that this soul is forcefully represented in America in the experience of the Native American peoples and their relationship to the land and to the ancient "indigenous one" at the heart of our human origins.

Using the context of Native American culture, the author calls for a renewal of religion and faith by reconnecting with the earth. Through our renewal we become aware of spirit and archetypes. In short, this is Jung refracted through the Native American experience.
