Carl Jung and The Collective Unconscious

Carl Jung’s collective unconscious is one of his most well-known (and controversial) concepts. The collective unconscious is the aspect of the unconscious mind which manifests inherited, universal themes which run through all human life. He came upon the idea in a dream.
The collective unconscious does not owe its existence to personal experience and consequently is not a personal acquisition, while the personal unconscious is made up essentially of contents which have at one time been conscious but which have disappeared from consciousness through having been forgotten or repressed. The personal unconscious consists of complexes, while the collective unconscious is made up of archetypes (or primordial images).
Archetypes are collectively-inherited forms or patterns of behaviour. They reflect basic patterns common to us all, and which have existed universally since the dawn of time.

I also was told not to imitate men and let men toil in their own world because I'm not a man. Recently they've noticed in studies that there is large parts of the brain turned off on shrooms, could it be that the personal consciousness is turned off and your getting an experience of the collective unconscious?

[@cheshirehat93]

@@keila8762 WRONG. Jung NEVER experimented with psychedelics. He even wrote a letter that contained a heavy critique of LSD and psychedelics in general when inquired about it, he equates it to mescaline, the only psychedelic he was aware of at the time. "There are some impoverished creatures, perhaps, for whom mescalin would be a heaven-sent gift without a counterpoison, but I am profoundly mistrustful of the 'pure gifts of the gods', you pay very dearly for them. This is not the point at all, to know of or about the unconscious, nor does the story end here; on the contrary it is how and where you begin the real quest. If you are too unconscious it is a great relief to know a bit of the collective unconscious, but it soon becomes dangerous to know more, because one does not learn at the same time how to balance it trough a conscious equivalent. That is the mistake Aldous Huxley makes, he does not know that he is in the role of the "Zauberlehrling", who learned from his master how to call the ghosts but did not know how to get rid of them again." Of course, anyone who has experienced enough with psychedelics and has at least a superficial understanding of Jung's work knows that he was absolutely right, despite never having experienced it himself. Psychedelics can absolutely shatter your psique if you don't have the mechanisms to deal with them built beforehand. Set and setting is just general advice for party animals wanting to get high not to have a bad time, if you take higher doses and swim down to the unconscious, you better understand that you are indeed taking on the role of the Zauberlehrling. This is not meant to dissuade you or to position myself against psychedelics, I have taken enough and I will continue take them, but I will say that I wouldn't have taken them if I had known all of this beforehand. Jung also adds: "I only know there is no point in wishing to know more of the collective unconscious than one gets trough dreams and intuition. The more you know of it, the greater and heavier becomes our moral burden, because the unconscious contents transform themselves into your individual tasks and duties as soon as they begin to become conscious. Do you want to increase loneliness and misunderstanding? Do you want to find more and more complications and increasing responsibilities? You get enough of it." And please, don't pull facts out of your ass, nobody needs that, especially when debating Jung's theories, as there are enough misunderstandings of his work as it is.

I have experimented with two different psychedelics in my life: LSD and magic mushrooms (the latter of the two I enjoy more). These experiences have been profound for me in the way it changed how I view my own psyche. I could go on but the main point I want to make is that my experiences in the relm of dreams has been more intense and powerful than any of my experiences on psychedelics. Granted, my previous dosages with them have not been nearly as much as say Terence Mckenna has experimented with. There is a relm that lives inside of me that is a thousand times more powerful and intense than any trip with psychedelics I have experienced. The exploration of my own psyche will grip me, excite me, scare me and humble me for the rest of my life on this planet. Thank you, Carl Yung, for teaching me just how fascinating it is to be ourselves.

Jung believed that archetypal themes were expressed in modern art. His Red Book illustrations were expressions of Jung’s visions while in deep meditative thought. Even though he did not consider himself to be an artist, these illustrations are very beautiful and sophisticated.

Last year, I had a psychotic episode. I don't like to go into detail, but what happened to me changed my life forever. Something came from me. I spoke to it, and it spoke to me. It produced images and signs and I honestly thought God was speaking to me. But when I am quiet and when I do not fight it, sometimes I can still catch glimpses of it. It's me. I am talking to myself, yes? But the thoughts are not mine. They come to me. It's so hard to find support because people want me to medicate it away or pretend I didn't experience what I experienced. I've had to deal with this my entire life. My higher self, my inner demon, my inner master, he/she/they talk back to me! Its insights are not from me even if they speak to me. But they're mine.

[@becauseicareawholelot2122]

​@@michaelgarrow3239 Edit: (Brief insight toward the end of original reply.) I think you would be better off understanding some of the founding points, as at the moment I am being bombarded with a number of accounts all asking some form of question, I really have no trust as to your validity considering the nature of all the others. If you earnestly seek to learn more there are plenty of Audiobooks, I would suggest starting with Archetypes of The Collective Unconscious, and to touch on world wars and the like, move further onward to Aion. I am sorry if this is legitimate but a large portion of my day is spent studying, the other writing works of my own, another portion corresponding with people. In this case I am not stating my time is available to break down that you may be asking, especially when it seems trolls/bots are flooding such things as my posts. I mean you no offense if indeed this is earnest, but must say I cannot answer such questions in a compact manner, or otherwise simply offering what is already available in short videos on the man. Thus I would suggest, if this interests you to look into it for yourself as many others did. Just because I am one well schooled in Jungian Psychology doesn't mean I have time to answer such questions, I would highly suggest going through other avenues such as those offering their time. Mine is, to be quite blunt, consumed enough as it is. I offered you this as there was at least something of a differencing notion in your question leading me to the belief you are not part of this pointless overflow of posts. However the questions you ask would be satiated within the two Books I mentioned, both available on KZbin. Likewise taking in Man and his Symbols, designed for the layman may be a good addition as well. SOME LIGHT SHED ON THINGS FOR YOU: Otherwise as for World Wars, think such as a human collective psychosis, to state the obvious. At best when one's Shadow Self (or other awakened force) has risen and taken hold of the whole culture in a hive-minded state. Much like the dancing madness that struck a small group of people, or other forms of mass hysteria. Even though it is tragic it often is humanity trying to solve that it cannot internally and thus have brought such forward externally all the while they remain in this weakened mental state making them all the more easier to be used as pawns. The Archetype being a motif that indeed reoccurs in all Societies and so too can be thought to correlate with instincts, thus the desire to suckle on a Mother for nutrients is bound with this Archetypal understanding of "The Great Mother," often seen in Religion such as Isis in the Egyptian Religious beliefs, or Sophia within Gnostic Christianity. The Collective Unconscious being that which the humans lineage has culminated into, and upholds various insights in which these Archetypes have taken up residence and doubtless will reoccur in other forms of media simply by-proxy as their presence being every bit as manifest as our own instincts, though Mentally residing, often they are projected onto other forms that correlate to us from the external world. Already I have offered you a slight answer, as is my nature, as initially I was not planning on doing so. However I do highly recommend you look deeper if this interests you, as there is great depth. All the best, and sorry if I seem curt. I do not mean to come off as uninterested. Just got out of something rather serious to the point most people wouldn't even consider doing anything afterward. And still found that which I have been freed from is by no means any form of liberation but all the worse. Good news for whatever trolls seem to be taking note of this page. Regardless it changes nothing inwardly for me other than giving me a driving force. Now to get to what I initially had planned on working on. I hope you find interest in these works. For further notice, though I may be well versed in something does not mean I have the time to spare. (To whomsoever is sending these bots, I have no idea what you are aiming at, but you are only wasting your own time.)

@@michaelgarrow3239 Cheers, and sorry if I came across as harsh, all I can say is it was a bad week, with that day being particularly difficult. To reiterate though, if Jung does interest you I would suggest the best gateway to understanding is "Man and his Symbols," as it was particularly made for those alien to Jung's concepts and methodology. By the time you finish you should know if this is something you are closer to in agreement or not. I would recommend listening to it on KZbin for free, no ads. As many simply go the Peterson route and rather than learn about Jung directly do so by-proxy, through Peterson. I can't stress enough how much more profound Jung is when contrasted. Let me know if you so happen to read or listen to Jung and your take away. May make a Discord for the man, and now that I am well aware you are not a bot, wouldn't mind getting into things more detailed via voice chat or something of the like. All the best, and sorry again if I came off too curt.

And she ran away, I was still lucid but she was so beautiful and I chased after her and told her to wait and etc but before I got a running start I woke up. Even though I was lucid for that second, I actually thought she was beautiful and it caught me off guard and ig it slipped bc I'm used to these type of things so I just didn't understand it ig😂🤷🏽‍♂️but I still felt so much guilt when I got up

Your state of lucidity doesn’t change the nature of the beast. The “dream” is merely a subconscious attempt to communicate the paradoxical content of this information to your conscious mind. Now you are somewhat aware of what “beauty” represents in the collective unconscious.

@@payvibaby how about this one, sort of the opposite of a Cyclops: a dream of cleaning out an old storeroom or attic maybe, and coming across a dusty framed painting which was a portrait of a hideous many-eyed man. Some of the eyes seemed only vestigial, they covered most of his face and the painting was animate; he blinked, and the eyes all blinked from left to right in a wave pattern. Looking closely at some movement at the bottom of one eye, I saw a mite-like insect crawling along the lip of the eyelid. That was the straw that broke my back, and I woke up from the nightmarish scene. Years later I heard about Argus Panoptes, the Greek giant with a hundred eyes.

I just might be a psychologist one day, the sense of enthusiasm I get when reading psychology and philosophy is unlike any kind of self-fulfilling activity I've ever done. Heck, I even started painting and drawing mandalas. My favorite authors so far are Nietzche, Marcus Aurelius, Rumi, Aldous Huxley, Søren Kierkegaard, Hegel, Arthur Schopenhauer, and Immanuel Kant. I know, these figures in philosophical history have vastly different views on humanity, society, individuality, and the world at large. Well, I hope to get a well-rounded education on these men in particular. Hey, if you read all that, any author recommendations are greatly appreciated.

I had this dream once. I was in a building, kind of like a hospital, kind of like a school, or a shopping mall, or a modern church, or what I call the modern corporate building. I saw a lot of people I met throughout my life, some which I hadn't thought of for years, some which were important to me and some that were loved ones. I can't remember when this detail came up, but there were 3 children, one of which, the smallest, was a ghost. It came to be that the building started to collapse, and everybody was evacuating. I was with a very good friend of mine and told him we should do the opposite, we should go to the most dangerous place imaginable, or in other words, the heart of the problem, to which he replied "ARE YOU NUTZ???" but I convinced him in the end. We were climbing up on the fire exit stairs, instead of down. After climbing for some time, my friend said that we should go back, but I said I would press on, and so he went back. I finally arrived at a level where the fire exit door was open and I could see a corridor that extended both left and right: the path to the left lead to darkness, and the path to the right lead to some kind of light. I took the right path and saw a room with 4 walls, all white with squared tiles, except for the one directly in front of me, which opened the room to a balcony. There was an incredibly luminous sunset in view, and it was shining on the scene in the middle of the room: a tree came bursting through the floor, throwing debris everywhere, and immediately started to eject thousands of purple dead snakes, falling like vines. The snakes started to fill the room like a flood, and I thought to myself "I have to show this to my friend!". After running down a few levels of the stairs, I met my friend and convinced him to go back up with me, but when we arrived, the purple dead snakes were already falling through the steps of the stairs, their eyes two X's, like in a cartoon. After we started to climb down the stairs, the little purple ghost child started to follow me, and when my friend and I arrived at the ground floor, we each reunited with our families. I met my mother, my cousin and her child, who is my godchild. The ghost child was simply standing a few steps from me when I said to my mother that we should take her with us, to which she replied "ARE YOU NUTZ???" but I convinced her in the end. We went into a car and went home. The ghost child fell asleep. The next day I woke up and thought to myself: I have to tell of this dream to my very good friend, so I took the school bus and met him and another friend in a pool. I almost went in fully clothed, such was my eagerness to tell him, but I remembered to empty my pockets. I was telling him of my dream when I woke up, for real this time. Ever since this Dream, I have gained the ability to walk through walls and floors when I know I'm dreaming.

2:17 I think it’s very interesting that Yung takes note of this because I’ve had this same type of dream before when I was much younger, but it was a little different. I started off in my house, but I moved down into the basement, and I remember seeing a sink. I went down another level that didn’t exist, and there was a smaller room with another sink. I continued to travel through these levels for thousands and thousands of levels, each with rooms of varying size, though usually small, descending down infinitely, past the earth even and into space. Eventually I reached a ‘rest stop’ type of room somewhere out in space which was a huge multileveled complex covered in massive glass windows pointing out into space. I took note of this place, but I still had more to go, so I continued farther down past any comprehension of distance and time until even my memory of doing so faded and my consciousness once again blended back in with the abstract. I realized during the journey that the staircase was infinite and that at my current pace it would’ve taken me forever. I wanted to see the end but as I tried to skip levels downward the entire dream began to dissolve and the staircase lost its form and meaning.

I've often felt powerless in conversations in the past, unable to completely express my feelings or how I think. Like a frustrated passive observer. Weirdly enough, my most common type of dreams are ones in which I'm in some mediocre environment listening to others converse. Never am I to say anything, only listening. It really is decoupled from any deeper meaning, almost like my brain has decided that trying to learn how to converse is worth the dream practice. Recently things have improved quite a bit, though, due to some related health issues improving my overall wellbeing. Now, I get similar dreams, but occasionally I get dreams of what I can only describe as unadulterated glory. Glowing sunlit cloudy landscapes that I peer into in silent reverence before waking up. I wake up from these dreams feeling like some deep rooted tension in my whole body is released.

Noticed something about myself when the picture of the skulls at 1:52 showed up. I got like a really visceral reaction to seeing them like my brain was programmed to get scared of this sight which is interesting when we also consider the topic of collective unconscious and common human traits inherited through evolution. Like it's also interesting how even an abstract painting, vaguely resembing skull can get a similar reaction from people.

[@ToeMass123]

Great content 👍

[@nappa3550]

I find this enlightening to a degree. In what could be called the toughest parts of my life listening to Jung has helped me. I found why I had some problems, and it lead me to find a piece of me that was missing. I visualized it too, it was interesting. I also found God too. He told me among other things that there's something the darkness is trying to tell you per say. You should find it and take it, but obviously, don't let it overtake you. He said that the "afterlife" is different to how you have been led to believe as a Christian to the point of shocking you. That there's reasons to everything. He said that although pure evil and good exist one will likely never encounter it. There's other things but I'll end my comment with this.. He said that he is energy. He is the sum of all consciousness.

The Collective Unconscious is what we all are - our soon to die bodies are batteries that recharge The Collective Unconscious, and batteries expire ... Culture is a way out of death they say... The Collective Unconscious is the Culture of all - the undying cloud of minds forever dying, always newly born, and forever alive. A massive creature of every Path, Frankenstein'd together, immortal, and godly. You were never really here - only we were here, only the "I" of the Collection of Unconscious Thoughts that gives us cause to fill roles and find meaning in meaningless.

Carl Jung’s Discovery of the collective unconscious : What guides my patterns of thought is logic. And what the majority of people think is good & decent discovered through logic. The well only give so much water if everybody takes what they need to survive, the well goes on giving water. As soon as you get a few that take beyond what is needed to survive (greed)🤔 Is where the trouble ensues for everyone going to the well. The good of all by the right actions of many through agreement. 🤷🏻‍♂️ 🙋🏻‍♂️

[@jeremys7131]

I always thought of a collective subconscious growing up that connected all people through dreams, which was why you May see people and places you didn’t know while dreaming because you were within a part of subconscious actually around people and places you didn’t know...or how at times you dream and see someone and later while awake may see that person in real life, only having ever seen them in a dream...could also explain deja vu.

[@avedic]

I've wondered about that myself. I have very bizarre dreams....and often write them down immediately after waking. And...I'll often google specific symbols or things I see in the dream. Like once, I saw a small human fetus....made out of green jello. Weird huh? What's REALLY weird is....I googled that, and found dream message boards where 2 other totally random people reported seeing the exact same thing in their dream. A small human fetus made of green jello. Not red jello. Not green wax. But green jello. It was so strange to discover those other reports. It really made me wonder....where on earth did this image come from? What are the chances of 3 people dreaming that same image? And that's just what I found online....which means there's surely orders of magnitude more people who _also_ saw that in a dream but just never said anything online about it. I still think about that green jello fetus often. I even worked it into a painting I made years later. But that's just one example. I've googled _many_ very very specific dream images that seem utterly unique....so idiosyncratic as to be totally one of a kind.........only to find other people reporting the exact same image in their dreams. Some of these examples are so insanely specific....so subtle and nuanced in the details....that it seems probabilistically impossible for any other human to have had the same image occur to them. And yet.....it happens. Really makes me think there's something to this collective unconscious concept.....

[@jeremys7131]

@@avedic exactly. I've thought about that stuff all my life ..used to want to develop an idea around it for a novel as I used to write stories and the odd book when younger. Still would like to, but just been lazy about it But yeah, there are videos on KZbin where a whole lot of people reported seeing the same thing, like a specific person in dreams to the point he was sketched by psychologists who were the ones who realized it was always the same man being described...by countless people...isn't that strange? Who was this person? Whoever it was, my guess is they are real and actually exist...if not now, perhaps in the past. Kind of creepy, but also super interesting to imagine the subconscious connection people may have, and why. Some of what you may think can depend on your beliefs as well.

[@userdo]

I remember reading somewhere that we don't create faces in our dreams supposedly. Like their people we've seen before even in passing and its just held in your subconscious. I'm not sure though

I had the same dream but it was like a gas station garage that had a basement door that led to a hall, where the hall had a sewer like thing, i went down a ladder 60 feet down and behind me opened an abyss of blackness i could not see the bottom nor the extents but i could hear the vast openness, as the opposite of talking in a closed room, speaking as if i was enclosed yet open for millions of miles around. Creepy, a place you go where it gets bigger darker and lonlier as you go deeper

[@vesselvan733]

ive never heard anyone speak of the ladder before. i dreamt of going down a very long ladder as well, it was pieced together by a bunch of different broken ladders, it was a foggy grey warehouse feeling, but vastly spacious. i dropped into some sort of school cafeteria where i encountered demonic like students with red uniforms, they were laughing like i was stuck there and i freaked out and ran into a set of double doors only to be quickly pulled from the dream when i was met with a blinding white light. i woke up in a full panic attack. the next night was spent crawling around in the pitch black searching for an exit. i could go on for days with dreams.

I think I've been there n got lost twice. Dreams where I become lucid and go from one environment to another. I was stuck and panicked and tried to force a wake up with pain. Turns out you can't feel pain in your dreams. It's a different sensation and it didn't wake me up. I started to give in and dance wildly saying thank you and that's when I woke up.

This has been described in great detail thousands of years ago. Karma. Things that are out of your control depending on the habits (which the archetypes are attracted towards) which you develop or have developed in your past or present life and the equation has to be balanced.

[@user-is3yn7xr4c]

Carl Jung is by far the most sophisticated western psychologist. But obviously people make mistake, his mistake is claiming that the collective unconscious is universally the same types. What he didn't realized was the fact that some cultures' collective unconscious is a byproduct of environmental influences rather than social.
