Two great traditions are wedded in this work: the irrepressible and magical Tarot and Jung's archetypal psychology. This wedding, long overdue, is achieved not only through the wit and wisdom of Sallie Nichols, but through her obvious love and care for the images of Tarot. The result is a superb and significant volume that will become food for critical minds and a most welcome elixir for souls thirsting for draughts of substance. Anyone with the remotest interest or fascination with the power of the image to move the psyche will find in Sallie Nichols' Jung and Tarot: An Archetypal Journey, just that: a journey into that realm where the image, the psyche and the soul find their source and their goal. --Russell A. Lockhart, Ph.D., Jungian analyst and Book Commentary Editor of Psychological Perspectives--Reviews Sallie Nichols has returned the Tarot to modern dignity. Being completely scientific in her approach to this old card game, she reveals its depth, its symbolic meaning, and its wisdom. Her comprehensive knowledge of the Tarot and Jung's psychology make this a rewarding and delightful book. --James Kirsch, M.D., Senior Analyst and Founding Member of the C.G. Jung Institute, Los Angeles, author of Shakespeare's Royal Self--Reviews

Author Information

Sallie Nichols taught Symbolism of the Tarot for trainees at the C.G . Jung Institute, Los Angeles, and lectured frequently on this subject under Jungian auspices in San Francisco, San Diego, Orange and Los Angeles. In a series of seminars entitled A Tarot Trip into Jung's Psychology presented at the Theosophical Center in Hollywood and elsewhere, she successfully introduced both the Tarot and Jung's concept of the archetypes to audiences relatively unfamiliar with either subject. A longtime student of Jung's psychology, Sallie Nichols had the good fortune to study at the C.G. Jung Institute, Zurich, while Jung was still alive and active.
