Once you read this book, your relationship with the Bible may be changed forever. Moonlight Shines in the Darkness will open your eyes to amazing aspects of the Gospel of John, and introduce you to a new, psychosymbolic way of seeing biblical texts. It's a way of reading that moves past both na vely literal understandings and hypercritical explanations, opening us to powerful, transformative appropriations of the meaning offered by biblical texts.Moonlight Shines in the Darkness represents a coming together of Jungian psychology, feminism, and biblical studies. The fundamental assumption underlying the book is that the Bible is the living Word of God made manifest in symbolic literary texts. Indeed, it becomes possible for the Word to carry us into a transcendent realm of living experience only when we engage the symbolic depths of the biblical texts.The language of symbols is the language of the soul, the language of literature, the language of the Bible. Moonlight Shines in the Darkness shows readers how to read and understand this language. It demonstrates that significant feminine elements are pervasive in the Fourth Gospel's images of Christ, making creative contributions to Jungian, biblical, and feminist studies. The book's vivid style, lucid organization, and polished presentation make its scholarship easily accessible for specialists and non-specialists alike. The hope is that engaging the feminine elements in the symbolic images of Christ will bring to light new possibilities, which in turn will facilitate the advance of consciousness along the path toward wholeness.
