Mythimo: Through the Looking-Glass of Fairy-tale Archetypes Fairy-tale Psychology (NON-FICTION) What if the key to understanding yourself and others was hidden inside a fairy tale? Jung believed we recognise archetypal characters instantly because they are already programmed into our minds. Just as Alice found truth and transformation in Wonderland, we too can unlock the mysteries of our being by embracing the reflection in the mirror of fairy-tale archetypes - opening a portal to our shadow side, the hidden power source of the psyche we suppress, avoid, and often do not even know exists. Author Janice Walker Jones draws on decades of teaching, counselling, psychotherapy, and deep dream work in her debut book, offering an accessible, therapeutically grounded pathway to personal growth and healing. Guided by the Hero's Journey, it bridges ancient wisdom with modern life, addressing the universal questions: Who am I? Where am I now? Where am I going next? At its heart are twenty-two favourite fairy tales, illustrated by the author's son, Simo. As these timeless archetypes are reimagined against Australia's ancient landscape through his vibrant art, we too find ourselves transformed- reauthoring our own narratives, seeing and living our lives with fresh eyes and a renewed sense of personal purpose. Together, text and image - available also as a set of enchanting reading cards - illuminate our unconscious patterns, everyday challenges, and innate strengths, catalysed through a simple yet profound seven-step method for psychic integration. Mythimo is an invitation to embark on a modern rite of passage: to journey into the depths of the psyche, reclaim your hidden inner treasures, and live your Whole, healthier and happier 'ever after'.
