I never knew Jung wrote so sweetly about Nature. This sounds like a great book!
Thanks for your response Colette. Jung had quite the affinity for nature. He even referred to it as Nature, with a capital ‘N’. He had very definitely mixed feelings on the coming of the industro-techno age and saw it as a moving away from Nature. At his cottage in Switzerland, he preferred to have no phone, no electricity, wood to heat his home in respect for his ancestors. Very interesting read, definitely. I don’t think I’m completely on the same page as everything he said but he was a very interesting & seemingly complex person and yet was viewed as a very simple man by people who did not know he was actually the very famous Carl Jung.
