Music, Jung, and Making Meaning
Wesley, Susan B. - Volume: 6
Music, with its innate therapeutic qualities, was an art form about which Jung rarely spoke. Because of an experience with music therapist Margaret Tilly, Jung encountered an engagement with music which caused him to comment on its power to reach archetypal material. Through case material and its discussion, this author shows how the Bonny Method of Guided Imagery and Music [GIM] can provide a music-based process for accessing the archetypal experience of the Hero's or Heroine's Journey.
