Carl Jung's Red Book Explained

The Book He Kept Private — A Reader's Companion

Between 1913 and 1930, Carl Jung recorded his most private inner dialogues and illuminated paintings in a folio bound in red leather: Liber Novus. Written for readers curious about depth psychology and the inner life, this 16-page illustrated booklet with 12 plates unpacks Jung’s confrontation with the unconscious, active imagination, the shadow, and the search for wholeness.

Goodwill before commerce · Our vision

A house at the edge of the noise.

ClarityOne is an independent contemplative press and video studio devoted to radical grace, intellectual honesty, and the inner life—purposely slowed down so you can wind down, rest, and ask again.

Begin with a gift.

Our free illustrated companion booklets let you spend an unhurried hour with the work before deciding to buy. Goodwill comes first.

Human vision, wider reach.

We create work that is deliberately unhurried, warm, and welcoming—reaching readers and listeners across languages in their own mother tongue. Resting in Grace and The Shattering of Certainty are live as e-books and unabridged audiobooks.

Goodwill, commerce, and outreach.

Buying directly from our press sustains our studio, funds the next free edition, and supports our outreach for retreat centers, cultural organizations, and communities in need.
