The Black Sun

The Alchemy and Art of Darkness

by Stanton Marlan

A Jungian study of the alchemical image of the black sun. Marlan explores the nigredo and experiences of darkness in alchemy, art and psychotherapy, arguing that darkness has its own value rather than being merely a stage to pass through.
