Jung's The Red Book as a modern grimoire
I don't know all that much about exactly what constitutes a 'grimoire' but I glanced at the AZOETIA and it made me wonder if Jung's REDBOOK is a grimoire. It seems to to be similar to AZOETIA in many ways and seems to express Jung's own magic yet very personal as well.
(hotlinking to your blog iza hope that's OK.) |

I haven't got to read this but it certainly looks like a grimoire! He was certainly a magician of the subconscious mind and if this illustrates how to reclaim power for our waking life through dreams and visions, I'd say that very much is in the spirit of a grimoire. I never realized Jung was such a sick-ass artist, frankly.

Then I, Oedipus, presented myself, who was ignorant; I consulted no augur, but by a simple effort of reflection silenced the Sphinx.

I tried to find this today but not the Glendale/Pasadena or Los Angeles library system had one....   The closest where I might be able to see it is the UCLA library but that's a pita I found this online which is an 11 page sampler .pdf. Beautiful!! http://www.gnosis.org/library/The-Red-Book.pdf | |
