ACCORDING TO FREUD… Most of the contents of the unconscious are unacceptable or unpleasant, such as feelings of pain, anxiety, or conflict. According to Freud, the unconscious continues to influence our behavior and experience, even though we are unaware of these underlying influences.

CARL JUNG Follower of Freud, BUT he disagreed with him about the unconscious… **consists of the processes in the mind that occur automatically and are not available to introspection, and include thought processes, memory, affect, and motivation

COLLECTIVE UNCONSCIOUS Area that we are unaware of, but all have in common… collective, universal, and impersonal nature which is identical in all individuals. This collective unconscious does not develop individually but is inherited. It consists of pre-existent forms, the archetypes

THINK ABOUT HEROES What do heroes have in common? Let’s compile a list. Now decide if you are going to work in a group or by yourself. You have 2 minutes to figure this out.

JUNG’S ARCHETYPES The Self = Conscious + the Unconscious = individuation The Shadow = unconscious mind and is composed of repressed ideas, weaknesses, desires, instincts and shortcomings. This archetype is often described as the darker side of the psyche, representing wildness, chaos and the unknown … may appear in visions or dreams … variety of forms (snake, dragons, monsters, demons, etc) The Anima (feminine image in the male psyche) or Animus (male image in the female psyche) = The anima/animus represents the "true self" rather than the image we present to others and serves as the primary source of communication with the collective unconscious. The Persona = how we present ourselves to the world. The mask…all of the different social masks that we wear among different groups and situations. It acts to shield the ego from negative images

EXAMPLES OF OTHER ARCHETYPES BY JUNG The father: Authority figure; stern; powerful. The mother: Nurturing; comforting. The child: Longing for innocence; rebirth; salvation. The wise old man: Guidance; knowledge; wisdom. The hero: Champion; defender; rescuer. The maiden: Innocence; desire; purity. The trickster: Deceiver; liar; trouble-maker
