Fuck that chart. Alchemy does not come before Red Book, Jung dropped Red Book altogether after a colleague sent him Secret of the Golden Flower (though it was a different version)

Man and his Symbols
Modern Man in search of a soul (or something of the kind) is also a good read in this vein
Any more interest and I'd suggest his major texts in the Collected Works.
Vols 7, the Tavistock Lectures and the beginning of one of the vols 18 and 9 to begin with
Then 4, 3 and 16/1, followed by 8, 17, 1 and 2 if you're into becoming a proper jungian analyst, mixing with 10, 15 and 11 as to your preferences in its themes
If not into becoming an acolyte, 4 for his relationship with Freud, 10, 15 and 11 for social, artistic and religious texts/commentaries by him that are really good, 17 for a nightcap on his general points before going in deep and 18 for miscellaneous writings
Then 6, 5, 16/2, 12, 14 and 13 for the texts that rely on a proper understanding of his theory, his major works
Then his seminars for fucking your shit up real good.

THIS IS THE CORRECT ORDER YOU RETARDS AN ANON BLESSED US WITH THIS LIST YEARS AGO YET YOU GO OUT AND CREATE PSEUDCHARTS

This could be a perfect chart but it's just missing like five different things: Modern Man in Search for a Soul, his various Essays, and Mysterium Coniunctionis along with the three major later period works posted. Not to mention there are a bunch of other books which really need to be sorted out, like MDR, or like the many ones only recently being published.

Might I advise, along with the already given addictions in the structure of the chart, an "extra" section down the bottom which has as it sees fit all those other works, and at the very least a few other major books and essays which were published in his life, something like the Wotan essay in "Essays on Contemporary Events".

Different is an understatement. What Jung read was a translation of a corrupted transcription of an abridged version of the original.

This organises his various published works, but it really is not a good reading chart. It's quite horrible for that.

did you read a secondary book on it or how do you know?

Dude you're gonna wanna familiarize yourself with hermeticism/occult, a bunch of medieval theology and possibly the Talmud before you crack into this thing. This book's a trip
