In the Amduat, the night-journey of the Egyptian Sungod is divided into twelve hours, each of them containing an enormous amount of insight into the human psyche.
The entire Amduat could be called the first “scientific publication” of humankind describing or mapping the dangers, but also the regenerative capabilities of the night-world, providing answers to basic human questions.
The synopsis of the different scenes of the Amduat, all in color, together with its explaining text, is unique.
This book is a treasure for all those who want to explore the archetypal structure of the objective psyche, with its helpful but also with its dangerous forces.
