What’s so special about this documentary series?

There has been spoken a lot about C. G. Jung and his Red Book. But if you really want to understand C. G. Jung’s achievements in psychology you need to follow his journey into alchemy as it connects the different puzzle pieces.

One of C. G. Jung’s ground breaking discoveries may be seen that the Trinity, including the God Father, the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ is in some way incomplete. It lacks nature, it lacks Human. And alchemy offered this missing piece.
It is mind blowing and will help you to understand the principles of alchemy from a completely new perspective.

Moreover, for bibliophils, all rare book sources have been added into the film. If you want to research a certain rare book, just pause the film to take note of the title or the author of the work.
