The Red Book of C.G. Jung and the Lion-Headed God

In his visionary diary known as The Red Book, C.G. Jung lost his soul and found it again through the intercession of entities associated with the Gnostic cosmos of Alexandria. Jung’s profound experiences lead to the question of how does one find one’s soul? Jung’s apotheosis as the Leontocephalos – the lion-headed god, a variant of Abraxas – gives us clues to the perennial path open to all who seek understanding.
