Summary:
"The companion volume to Goddesses in Everywoman reveals the powerful inner patterns, or
archetypes
, that
shape
men
's personalities, careers, and personal relationships -- offering a insights into Greek mythology, Jungian archetypal psychology, and into themselves and the people in their
lives
. A Jungian analyst, Dr. Bolen introduces our inner patterns in the guise of eight archetypal
gods
. From the authoritarian, power-seeking
gods
(Zeus, Poseidon) to the
gods
of creativity (Apollo, Hephaestus) to the sensual Dionysis, Dr. Bolen shows
men
how to identify their ruling
gods
, how to decide which to cultivate and which to overcome, and how to tap the power of these enduring
archetypes
in order to enrich and strengthen their
lives
. She stresses the importance of understanding which
gods
you are attracted to and which are incompatible with your expectations, uncovers the origins of the often-difficult father-son relationship, and explores society's deep conflict between nurturing behavior and the need to foster masculinity. A compassionate and lucid male psychology that will help all
men
and women to better understand themselves and their relationships with their fathers, their sons, their brothers and their lovers. Jean Shinoda Bolen, M. D, is the author of The Tao of Psychology, Goddesses in Everywoman,
Gods
in
Everyman
, Ring of Power, Crossing to Avalon, Close to the Bone, The Millionth Circle, Goddesses in Older Women, Crones Don't Whine, Urgent Message from Mother, Like a Tree, and Moving Toward the Millionth Circle"--Provided by publisher.
