The alchemists, Jung points out, warn against book learning…Hypotheses based solely on the intellect and intuition are bound to fail. Heart is required. The dew that falls from the clouds onto the moribund hermaphrodite consists of the feelings without which ideas are empty and dead. Feeling alone distinguishes the “water of wisdom” from abstract knowledge.
