jung basically willingly rejects his own thesis that the psyche is important to care about by the end of all his books

I don't know anything about Alan Watts except for his talk on Kali which I really like.

'Man and his symbols' is a book compiled by readers of Jung specifically in order to explain him tot he layman. It's the ideal starting point.

I really liked Memories, Dreams and Reflections. It's his autobiography that he insisted would only be published after his death. While it doesn't go in-depth into any one theory it provides a brilliant overview of all his work and adds background to how he came to all his conclusions. Plus there's a bit where God appears to him as a massive penis, sitting on a wooden throne, with a big red eye where the piss slit should be. So that's cool.

>“No doubt very few people understand the purely subjective nature of the phenomenon that we call love, or how it creates, so to speak, a supplementary person, distinct from the person whom the world knows by the same name, a person most of whose constituent elements are derived from ourselves.”
Proust was also a Jungian. literally describes the jungian anima right there.

It really depends what you want to learn from his books. I've only read Symbols of Transformation and I'm currently reading Alchemical Studies, and I'm enjoying him, so far.

Don't listen to the anti Jung faggots.

Important: start a dream journal. You literally cannot understand Jung without one. Not really.
