The Eden project
In Search of the Magical Other
Book • 1998
This book examines the psychodynamics of relationships through a Jungian lens, focusing on the concept of the 'Magical Other' and the projections we impose on our partners.
It is not a practical guide to fixing relationships but rather a call for greater personal responsibility and individual growth.
Hollis explores how our childhood experiences and unconscious projections shape our relationships and argues that true intimacy can only be achieved by confronting and integrating our own psyche.
The book emphasizes the importance of individuation and conscious dialogue in relationships.
