A description of another type of dreams called collective unconscious

Thanks for reading—glad it was of some help. It started with me and my friends in a water park.

Psyche and the Sacred: According to the Collected Works editors, the essay was translated by M. I"The Concept of the Collective Unconscious"p. The present version has been slightly revised by the author and edited in terminology.

Abstracts of the Collected Works of C.G. Jung

Jung, Man and his Symbols London p. Quoting Jung, Collected Works vol. What is left is an arbitrary segment of collective psyche, which Jung has called the persona. The word persona is appropriate, since it originally meant the mask worn by an actor, signifying the role he played.

Glass, "The Philosopher and the Shaman: By this I mean the views of Freud and Adler.

Theory of the Libido

It is a psychology of the person, and its aetiological or causal factors are regarded almost wholly as personal in nature. The personal interpretation would have to admit that he is right—and yet it would be quite wrong. For in reality the cause of his neurosis would like in the reactivation of the dual-mother archetype, quite regardless of whether he had one mother or two mothers, because, as we have seen, this archetype functions individually and historically without any reference to the relatively rare occurrence of dual motherhood.

The Catholic way of life is completely unaware of psychological problems in this sense. Almost the entire life of the collective unconscious has been channeled into the dogmatic archetypal ideas and flows along like a well-controlled stream in the symbolism of creed and ritual.

One admits readily that human activity is influenced to a high degree by instincts, quite apart from the rational motivations of the conscious mind.

If they exist, then there is a region of the psyche which one can call the collective unconscious. Jung refers to Pronuba yucasella, now apparently classified as Tegeticula yucasella.

Hunt, "A collective unconscious reconsidered: Jung's archetypal imagination in the light of contemporary psychology and social science"; Journal of Analytical Psychology 57, It can also be found in Irenaeus, who says: In the Corpus Hermeticum, God is called 'archetypal light.

For example, qualities of the shadow archetype may be prominent in an archetypal image of the anima or animus. There would seem, then, to be no definitive decision procedure for determining the exact boundaries of an individual archetype.

Quoted in Singer, Culture and the Collective Unconsciousp.

In order to verify the presence of an archetype, then, both the views of introspection and extraspection are necessary. The symbolic nature of the person's experience and his for the most part absence of personal association to the material is taken into account along with the presence of the same theme or motif in material drawn from the history of symbols.

The ability of these historical parallels to provide an explanation of the meaning of otherwise inexplicable content is then the crucial factor justifying the employment of the archetypal hypothesis. This proof seems to me of great importance, since it would show that the rationally explicable unconscious, which consists of material that has been made unconscious artificially, as it were, is only a top layer, and that underneath is an absolute unconscious which has nothing to do with our personal experience.

If we had only such cases, the task of investigation would be relatively easy, but in reality the proof is much more complicated. This explains the influence of the stars as asserted by astrologers. These influences are nothing but unconscious, introspective perceptions of the activity of the collective unconscious.

Just as the constellations were projected into the heavens, similar figures were projected into legends and fairytales or upon historical persons.

Understanding the Concept of Collective Unconscious in Detail

Richard Noll, The Jung Cult:In the Biblical account, there were ten patriarchs between Adam and Noah, who also lived long lives. Noah was years old at the time of the landing of the Ark on the mountains of Ararat (in present day Turkey).

Slaanesh, also known as the Dark Prince, the Prince of Pleasure, the Lord of Excess, the Perfect Prince, and even the Prince of Chaos in the Imperium of Man, the Chaos God of Pleasure, Passion, and Decadence.

Lust, pride and self-indulgence are the hallmarks of all who follow him. He is the. Critics of the collective unconscious concept have called it unscientific and fatalistic, or otherwise very difficult to test scientifically (due to the mythical aspect of the collective unconscious).

Proponents suggest that it is borne out by findings of psychology, neuroscience, and anthropology. Collective unconscious, as a noun, is defined as - "a part of the unconscious mind, incorporating patterns of memories, instincts, and experiences common to all mankind.

These patterns are inherited, may be arranged into archetypes, and are observable through their effects on dreams, behavior, etc.". Jung described the psyche as one’s total personality, encompassing all one’s thoughts, behaviors, feelings, and emotions.

Jung divided the psyche into three major realms: consciousness, the personal unconscious, and the collective unconscious.

Differences between Jung and Freud

These three realms are not closed-off from one another but constantly interact in a compensatory manner.
