Keep reading because he also disavows some of these things in later life.

It says nothing of the kind. You're busted.

Here’s a quote from Chapter 2 of Synchronicity: “I formed the opinion that astrology is of particular interest to the psychologist, since it contains a sort of psychological experience which we call ‘projected’ - this means that we find the psychological facts as it were in the constellations.”

"Although over the centuries various theories have been advanced to describe the functioning of telepathy, none seem to be adequate. In conclusion telepathy, like the other forms of psychic phenomena is elusive and difficult to test systematically. Enough evidence is available to reasonably substantiate the phenomenon does exist. But, quantifying it seems to be another matter. The phenomenon is closely connect to the emotional states on both the sender and receiver which creates difficulty in replicating experimental results. Attitudinal factors also influence the phenomenon."

A statement that something appears to be the case - a flat statement that current theories are inadequate - a follow up saying that it appears to be hard to test - and closer stating that the emotional state appears to play a part. Ringing endorsement or carefully limited to the science?
