Signs, Signs, Everywhere signs – #71

Roaming around our interior landscapes, we met the Boys in the Basement. Getting acquainted with the Boys necessitated meeting the Girls. This led us to focusing on the Shadow which we are learning is the container for these inner entities.  

Now I’m skimming The Tools by Stutz and Michels, a book I learned about in the New York Times when a celebrity named it as a book currently on their nightstand.   I checked it out at the Urbandale Public Library, read the first chapter, then it disappeared on my stack of must reads. Notified it was due, I looked at it again, and decided to renew.

Reviews of the book are mixed: some say it is groundbreaking; others say it is vague and unoriginal.

Opposites have been showing up in my life with startling regularity. In the twenty-first century there appears to be no middle ground. People either hate or love; approve or disapprove; accept or reject.

Much to my surprise, Shadow is central to The Tools message.  
I need a bit more time to study this adaptation of Jung’s ideas   before I cast my vote.

Even though I will feature the book below, it is not yet an endorsement.

Next week we will continue exploring the mystery!
