Jung Institute in Zurich\/Kusnacht, she published a seminal but little known work called \u201cStructural Forms of the Feminine Psyche\u201d (\u201cDer Psychologie\u201d, Berne, 1951). This treatise, certainly one of the first studies in Analytical Psychology, has been the subject of the authors\u2019 investigation, attention, research and study for the past twelve years. Toni Wolff\u2019s original outline of her four archetypes barely filled fifteen pages of the journal, and was written in the academic style of professional journals of that period, sans illustration or commentary.<\/p>\n<p>While Wolff\u2019s work has been mentioned in short form in the work of several writers, <i>Four Eternal Women<\/i><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important; padding: 0px ! important;\" src=\"\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=wwwmalcolmclc-20&amp;l=btl&amp;camp=213689&amp;creative=392969&amp;o=1&amp;a=1926715314\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/> is the first full and serious archetypal delineation of her original thesis, and examines each of her four feminine archetypes from several perspectives:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a0Wolff&#8217;s Own Words<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0An Overview of History and Myth<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Familiar Characteristics<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Lesser known (Shadow) Possibilities<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Career Inclinations<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Relationships to Men<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Relationships to Children<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Relationships to Each of the Other Types<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The tension of the opposites set up by Wolff\u2019s own diagrammatic representation of these archetypes provided an additional dynamic to this study. Those who have followed Jung\u2019s individuation path will recognize aspects of Jung\u2019s Transcendent Function. All readers may well become personally sensitized to discover their own type preferences, and how some aspects of shadow may be present in their \u2018opposite\u2019 partner.<\/p>\n<p><b>About the Authors<\/b><br \/>\nLucy Anne Sikes, MS, ARNP, is a Senior Diplomate Jungian Analyst and is an Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner.
