He interests me more than any other psychologist. I haven't read much about the field at all, but would it be okay to start with him?

Probably wise to read Freud's 'ego and the id' first but I jumped right into Jung and it went pretty well, honestly he opened my world to reading philosophy/literature quite a bit. Jung's was a genius and he has great credentials. Also he wrote a fuck ton of things.

Peter Kingsley has a gnostic masterpiece if you can mind his sneering tone. Probably best to start with Memories, Dreams, Reflections (brainlet tier), Man and His Symbols (smol brain tier), Aeon (big brain tier), or Liber Novus (galaxy brain tier).

Man and his symbols felt like a step back from Freud's interpretation of dreams. Freud is genuinely more interesting as he really tries to formalize human culture and thought. Jung just seems to categorizes what has already been done in literature and religion. Not that there isnt worth in it just doesnt seem like hes treading new ground like Freud did.

He mentions him personally a bunch of times, not just referring to his theory. I remember one anecdote, when him and Freud where on a ferry in america or some shit. He explains how he couldnt express his ideas to Freud as they would be rejected or some shit.
Felt weird and out of place. Does he do this alot in his other works? Man and his Symbol has only a short essay written by Jung.

the Red Book is pretty lit

Definitely read into Jung. It's not the same as psychology you'd get from a textbook because it's not concerned so much with the individual but with society, and you have to take everything he says metaphorically

ie he doesn't talk about God, but the *image* of God, which may or may not actually be a sentient god. Similarly, his universal unconscious is effectively an observation on how societal trends work and why certain things become popular.

His stuff on integrating the shadow is also very good.
