Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is the second book I have read from Dr Thom Cavalli a perfect companion to his first book Alchemical Psychology. Thom is a master of weaving ancient wisdom with modern psychology and personal growth. The books are easy to read, fascinating and with a great touch of living history. More importantly they are a guide on how to move forward in ones life in a clean way using the wisdom that has been "hidden in plain sight" for Milena. I was fortunate enough to get Embodying Osiris just before I left to Egypt and wow! what an enhancement it was to have with me and to really "feel" what I saw. I also want to add this is not some New Age dribble rather a well researched book based shedding light on mysteries that have always been. I also invite those of you reading this to pick up Dr Thom's first book it is equally as fascinating and helpful. Can't wait for the next one.....

The modern Western movement to embrace Eastern spiritual traditions usually stops with India and the Orient. Westerners have yet to discover the wisdom that dates back even further to ancient Egypt. With a Jungian perspective, clinical psychologist Dr. Thom F. Cavalli plumbs that wisdom through the myth of Osiris, the green-skinned Egyptian god of vegetation and the Underworld. As no one else has done, Cavalli draws on Osiris's death and resurrection as a guide to spiritual transformation. The myth represents the joining of the conscious and the unconscious, the light and the dark, life and death, and shows how to live our temporal existence in service to and anticipation of eternal life. Cavalli sees the ancient art of alchemy - which attempted to turn lead into gold - as the key. The alchemical recipe "solve et coagula" (solution and coagulation) encoded in the myth describes the integration of all parts of a person and the method for achieving an experience of immortality in life and eternal life after death. The Osiris myth thus provides a model for the contemporary quest for individuation, the Jungian term for integrating ego and self, body and soul, in the process of becoming whole.
