This new stock edition offers a profound, future-focused cultural therapy advocating for a matriarchal consciousness to heal patriarchal imbalances. With deep dives into symbolism, psychology, and societal healing, it remains a must-read for professionals seeking to understand gender dynamics and cultural psychology. ## Description These essays by the famous analytical psychologist and student of creativity Erich Neumann belong in the context of the depth psychology of culture and reveal a prescient concern about the one-sidedness of patriarchal Western civilization. Neumann recommended a "cultural therapy" that he thought would redress a "fundamental ignorance" about feminine and masculine psychology, and he looked for societal healing to a "matriarchal consciousness" that forms the bridge between the feminine and the creative. Brought together here for the first time, the essays in the book discuss the psychological stages of woman's development, the moon and matriarchal consciousness, Mozart's Magic Flute, the meaning of the earth archetype for modern times, and the fear of the feminine. In Mozart's fantastic world, Neumann saw a true Auseinandersetzung--the conflict and coming-to-terms with each other of the matriarchal and the patriarchal worlds. Developing such a synthesis of the feminine and the masculine in the psychic reality of the individual and of the collective was, he argued, one of the fundamental, future-oriented tasks of both the society and the individual.

I recommend reading Amor and Psyche by the same author before reading this book. The chapter on the moon symbology was very insightful. I found Neumann more on point in this book than others. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 964,485 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 1,174 in Psychology & Sexual Behaviour 1,929 in Theory of Psychoanalysis 10,317 in Scientific Psychology & Psychiatry | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 53 Reviews | ## Images ![The Fear of the Feminine: And Other Essays on Feminine Psychology: 22 (Bollingen Series) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71i3HpymFYL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absorbing intriguing kind of stuff that help the relationships between ... *by A***R on 3 March 2015* Absorbing intriguing kind of stuff that help the relationships between man and woman.biology is challenged herewith .one wonders whether there is such a thing as feminity and masculinity.but no point in despairing as long as one simply accepts tolerates respects.is it transmutation?education is vital not the sort of education that implies exams tests but life living enjoying suffering etc ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A well written book *by S***S on 22 October 2020* A lot of what's in the book is relevant even today not only in the west but any culture trying to westernize themselves. I recommend reading Amor and Psyche by the same author before reading this book. The chapter on the moon symbology was very insightful. I found Neumann more on point in this book than others. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by D***O on 4 August 2023* Yeah, five stars. Awesome, awesome. Neumann uses a Jungian framework to present this critical aspect of human psychology clearly and usefully. Academic style, but way more accessible than Jung himself. If more people knew this stuff, we'd have a greater number of balanced individuals, happier relationships, and a healthier planet. It's categorized as 'Psychology/Women's Studies', but it's as much (or more) for men. Brilliant. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Fear of the Feminine - The Great Mother: An Analysis of the Archetype (Mythos: The Princeton/Bollingen Series in World Mythology) - The Origins and History of Consciousness (Princeton Classics) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/103552933-the-fear-of-the-feminine-and-other-essays-on-feminine](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/103552933-the-fear-of-the-feminine-and-other-essays-on-feminine) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
