2.  First of all, you should know that Jung approach of psyche has many sources of inspiration. We shall list some of them below:  1. Jung's experience with the psychotics at the Burgholzli hospital under the guidance of Dr. Bleuler, mostly known because of his work on schizophrenia;  2. Jung's own experiences with the association method;  3. Jung's cooperation with Freud, and his experience with the Freudian psychoanalysis, including dream interpretation technique;  4. Jung exploration of his own unconscious after he left Freud and the Freudian psychoanalytic association during his own confrontation with his inner psyche. (http://www.carl-jung.net/theory.html)

3.  Jung introduces the subject level. What is this level? The fact that the dream reveals, in a symbolic way, some features of individual psychological life or of his internal psychological transformations. This way the dream becomes an indicator of those changes that sometimes point to the development of the individuation process.  So, if someone dreams of his mother, the mother in Jung's view is not an evocation of the real mother, but of the dreamer's anima, that is, his emotional, feminine side of the psyche. Mother can also be a suggestion to what is basically biologic in the human nature or can lead to his inherited background, his homeland in a cultural way. (http://www.carl-jung.net/theory.html)

4.  Alchemy is a symbolic representation of the individuation process. individuation process  One is the necessity to find a historic parallel to his own discoveries of the unconscious psychic life. The second refers to the series of dreams which have evoked the new research course, on which Jung talks at length in his autobiography: Memories, Dreams and Reflections.

5.  The term synchronicity is coined by Jung to express a concept that belongs to him. It is about acausal connection of two or more psycho-physic phenomena.  So, the idea is all about coincidence: in this case, between the scarab dreamt by the patient and its appearance in reality, in the psychotherapy cabinet. (http://www.carl-jung.net/theory.html)

6.  "The archetype concept - Jung writes - derives from the often repeated observation that myths and universal literature stories contain well defined themes which appear every time and everywhere. We often meet these themes in the fantasies, dreams, delirious ideas and illusions of persons living nowadays".

7.  Animus is the archetype of reason and spririt in women. This is the male aspect of the female psyche  In animus-inflated women with strong interest in intellectual matters we find the need to impose and maintain a rigurosus and schematic list of values judged the most important. There's no reflection as regard the tenues of these values, nor any aim at discussing about them. Only the urge to impose them to others. (http://webspace.ship.edu/cgboer/jung.html)

8.  anima is the female aspect of male psyche.  The anima may be personified as a young girl, very spontaneous and intuitive, or as a witch, or as the earth mother.  It is likely to be associated with deep emotionality and the force of life itself. (http://webspace.ship.edu/cgboer/jung.html)

9.  Jung concept of collective unconscious is based on his experiences with schizophrenic persons since he worked in the Burgholzli psychiatric hospital.  Though initially Jung followed the Freudian theory of unconscious as the psychic strata formed by repressed wishes, he later developed his own theory on the unconscious to include some new concepts. The most important of them is the archetype.Freudianarchetype  Archetypes constitute the structure of the collective unconscious - they are psychic innate dispositions to experience and represent basic human behavior and situations
