ABSTRACT
In this chapter, the author introduces to Woman’s Mysteries while it was still out of print in the early 1960s by a friend, Brother Antoninus, the Dominican monk and poet. The Woman in the Mirror: Analytical Psychology and the Feminine, Claire Douglas makes some very astute remarks about the book and its relevance even today, to women. Woman’s Mysteries, had its beginnings in the early days with C. G. Jung. After working with Jung in Zurich for three years, Harding came to the United States and joined Dr. Bertine, apparently at the suggestion of Jung. Jung believed that thinking types often lack the conscious ability to feel, and are prone to say things which hurt the feelings of others. During one of the visits, Harding told Jung of a dream she had once of a priest. Jung told her she had an animus like an archimandrite.
