Healing the Wounded King: Soul Work and the Quest for the Grail (Earth Quest S.)

Summary: Healing the Wounded King
Review: I found this a thought-provoking book which suggests a deep awareness by the author of modern psychology and the way that psychological issues can be addressed by using traditionally occult or mystical approaches. In the book, John Matthews describes the Grail legends in an allegorical context, and takes the reader through a series of self-healing 'Path-Workings', which would be instantly recognised by students of the Western Esoteric Tradition (particularly those familiar with tecniques developed within the Golden Dawn tradition).

While not a book about occultism or mysticism, 'Healing the Wounded King' contains elements of both and combines them into a wonderfully accessible approach to self-healing. A very good read and extremely worthwhile.
