The Blue Egg: A Subtle Encounter with Reality

By Jorge Aveleira

The notion of reality is under crisis. Science strives today to determine a logical basis for reality that may harmonize with some odd and disturbing facts that appear as correspondences or incongruities in quantum physics, biology, mathematics, philosophy, Jungian psychology and other fields.

This book presents a combined view of fundaments of Taoism, Jungian psychology, Astrology, Physics, Kabbalah and Tarot. The Blue Egg is a philosophical model, an essay to establish an alternative rational approach to the study of consciousness and physical reality. It offers a coherent explanation for some aspects of an essential process of evolution that permeates the Universe. The Blue Egg model doesn t attempts to derive consciousness from physical reality or the other way around, it aims instead to expose a common and pervading basis for the fulfillment of them both.

This work offers a preliminary inspection of a few approaches to the study of psychology and consciousness such as:
- To devise a simple, logical and symmetrical structure, that organizes some Jungian psychic functions according to a new and active vision.
- To suggest a new model to understand the natural process of psychic growth and evolution.
- To express a shared pattern of organization between some psychic components and other universal models.
