Carl Gustave Jung was a student of Freud, but broke from his mentor in a dramatic way. Jung acquired the reputation of being a mystic, and put forward ideas that pushed the boundaries of psychoanalysis. This is a crash course in Jung’s most important ideas: projection, archetypes, and the collective unconscious. In this episode, we go in-depth on the major archetypes that Jung describes. These are subpersonalities that exist in every human unconsciousness, which will manifest insensibly in one’s desires, and find themselves projected by the subject into the external world.

"Carl Gustave Jung was a student of Freud," * What is often overlooked is Jung was a 'student' of Nietzsche for longer than Freud, especially after their break. Also the influence bleeds from the page itself - As Jung said you read more about the therapist, reading their books, than you learn of their therapies.

[@allenandrews2380]

Nietchze said essentially the same of philosophers. Spot on.

[@calistafalcontail]

Freud was an ignorant, dark and empty man imo. He lacked spirituality. Jung didnt. He acknowledged the human soul and thats what makes him greater. Freud has something sinister about him and Jung was kinda ..."warm".

[@buddyacesmxbc1055]

​@@allenandrews2380 Nietchze was clever he was the hit and lure type of character but then he surprises you with those he mentions to hate you would have to read their work just to understand Nietchze so bad publicity is good in his case. He fooled me but I can't claim to know everything about his work just that he is decisive.

"Not everybody has virtues, but everybody has the low instincts, the basic primitive caveman suggestibility, the suspicions and vicious traits of the savage." - Jung In every political system, people vote for their "shadow". This is not unique to a particular people either. The masses want to express this side as a means to devolve any kind of responsibility because the masses are simply beyond reason or principles and have always been trained to have their disgusts stimulated while being blind to it. Being in such an unconscious state makes them blind to their shadows. This is also why the masses are so clueless, even when political/social problems are obvious. This is also why we see so many who are supposedly “anti establishment” later promote the establishment. They merely hated who was in power at the time, but in their hearts they craved to wield that power. So they were never anti establishment, they wanted to be the establishment. Seeking political power (authority) in order to solve problems makes the common man detestable.

This is the best intro to Jung that I’ve ever heard. I will be sure to tune into more of your lectures. Thanks!

[@architektura204]

All thinkers (including scientists) will always argue with one another in trying to intellectually understand how everything turns, as long as they shove intuition to the role of a caboose instead of the locomotive. Once we intuitively understand the workings of "IT ALL," we stop talking about it because it's impossible to intellectualize such a knowing. It's like writing hundreds of dissertations on how a rose smells without ever smelling it. And when we finally smell it, we glide on the "unbearable lightness of being," as Kundera would so beautifully phrase it; without the battle and the splitting headache. Thank you for your fantastically disarming way of exploring all the philosophical insides.

I recommend Psychology and Alchemy. It’s a difficult but rewarding book, that will be valuable even if you agree with none of Jung’s ideas: as a historical, psychological study if nothing else, almost a work of anthropology or philology

I suggest you should start to write your dream, until it's started to appear as an episodic story. Just describe and inquire what you had experience during the dream and reflect on current or persisted problem in your life. Familiarize yourself with the imaginary until you are aware it's meaning. Then look at Jung ideas on archetype.

Professor Ricahrd Bishop worked widely on different aspects of analytical psychology and its place in intellectual history. His books examine different aspects of analytical psychology and its place in intellectual history. His books examine the history of ideas with an emphasis on Jung, Nietzsche, and Ludwig Klages ( Jung is saying the great- grandmother the basard son of Gerta. Is it true or not- Jung said it is an annoying legend. Professor Richard Bishop is the editor of Numerous Volumes, including Jung in contests. 1. The Persistence of Myth as symbolic Form. 2. A Companion to Goethe's Faust & the Descent of the Soul & the Archaic. 3. Jung's Answer to Job 4. Nietzsche's Anti-Christ 5.The 2 volume series Analytical Psychology & German Classic Aesthetics 6. His latest book, Reading Plato Through Jung: Why The Third Becomes the Fourth I can't wait until you get to Jung's letters. So many writers contribute the updates to Carl Jung, Jungian analysts, and many may disagree. What an amazing adventure in one of greatest minds of C.J. Jung's writings. It was fortunate that the family kept his blackbooks and paintings in a bank vault until our world could awaken more. The time was ready especially now. Thank you, great lecture.

I reread it today, and was struck by brother Ivan’s parallel to Nietzsche’s theory. I felt a deeper understanding of that hypothetical tale due to a better understanding of Nietzsche via reading his Twilight, Beyond, Genealogy, etc, and- of course- your excellent podcast- my God that content rescues me from the tedium of boredom at my job.

[@TonicTonesbyRyanRohn]

Very glad you put this one together. I've been deeply influenced by both Nietzsche and Jung in the last 4 years and often wondered how Nietzsche would have handled Jung's criticisms of him and his work. I suspect he (Nietzsche) would have had no trouble defending himself, as his sharpness of wit and intellect was superior to Jung's, not to mention that the roots of Jung's psychology were a direct result of Nietzsche's influence upon him. Thank you again for the excellent, thought provoking work, Keegan.

Sabina Spielrein is actually the one who first conceived of the idea of archetypes and the collective unconscious. Fascinating woman that Freud and Jung both stole ideas from and claimed as their own.

[@RevolutionGamingShorts]

i feel as though one must look at the archetypes through a lense of nuance. I think engendering the archetypes is an over anthromorphization of instinctual mental complexes and that this is derivative of the times in which he lived

[@Laradicequadrata]

I have always been amazed by how Jung was influenced by Nietzsche. I do believe that these types of thinkers are connected by some arcane think red thread and somehow they follow the work of the previous like it was just the continuation, a sort of intergenerational connection and understanding. They are like the Voyager satellite for the Human kind, sent in the deeps on the conscious to explore the unknown and the frontiers of what is to be human.

[@theultimatedisciple7974]

Its just a shame Nietzsche was unable to read it and offer his views of Carl Jungs thought 😊

[@SC-gw8np]

Ideas don’t have to be grand to be significant or noteworthy. The fact that the West collectively denounces the subtle yet important ideas is why it’s currently on a death spiral. Disregarding the shadow doesn’t make it go away, the shadow instead grows and grows, eventually growing to the scale of a Lovecraftian monster who creeps up on us and attacks us on the rear. I firmly believe this is why so many of the West’s institutions are failing at the moment.
