The Prophet Archetype

Carl Jung carved the Latin inscription "VOCATUS ATQUE NON VOCATUS DEUS ADERIT" above the front door of his home in Kusnacht, Switzerland. In English the translation reads: Called, or not called, God will be present. In his first book, Jung & Remote Viewing, Dr. David Shaver explored the field of extra-sensory perception from both psychoanalytic and philosophical perspectives. Now he explores the sphere of prophecy and demonstrates how prophecy is an empirical verification of Jung's Latin inscription. Drawing from Hebrew, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, and Native American sacred writings, prophecy is found to have the same progressive stages regardless of culture or religion. Additionally, both Jungian and mythological writings reveal the presence of prophecy even in individuals of no particular tradition of faith. Prophecy as revelation through grace transforms individuals and provides new meaning through creative growth.
