Major Differences Personal unconscious and a "collective unconscious“ Spiritual Reduced emphasis on “sexual” instincts
7
The Psyche The total personality Works with “life process energy” –Similar to libido, but “sexual” energy is only one type of energy
8
Life Process Energy Energy is created according to the principle of opposites Energy is created through conflict

Outgoing Life of the party” Becomes board Tries to find meaning Becomes a more serious student One-sided development creates conflict – that we try to resolve
14
Parts of The Psyche Ego Contains CS perceptions, memories, thoughts, and feelings Ego “unites” these elements Gives a sense of unity and identity Similar to McAdam’s Level III
15
Parts of The Psyche Personal Unconscious Consists of all forgotten experiences Perhaps repressed or simply too weak to be CS Can be accessed by various means
16
Parts of The Psyche Collective Unconscious “A deposit of world processes embedded in the structure of the brain...a sort of timeless and eternal world-image...” The latent memories of our human and prehuman ancestry –Contains various archetypes
17
Archetypes Themes that have existed in all cultures throughout history Universal due to our common evolution and brain structure
18
Archetypes Example: People tend to respond to ambiguous and threatening situations in a particular way..
19
With an all-powerful being that we call God Thus, God is a universal symbol in our collective unconscious
20
Archetypes Persona –“Social Archetype” The persona is the public face (mask) one presents to the world for everyone else to see. Everyone has one (that’s why it’s an archetype) to deal with the world –Can be negative if doesn’t fit with “true self”
21
Archetypes The Shadow –“Evil Side” The dark side of your personality that contains the animal (and sexual) instincts. It is the opposite of the ego –It contains what our ego might reject Sadistic impulses Unacceptable sexual impulses Aggressive impulses
22
Archetypes The Shadow As an archetype the importance of the shadow is seen in its symbolic representation by devils, demons, and evil spirits.
23
Archetypes The Anima –A man’s “feminine” side Predisposes man to understand the nature of woman Serves as the sentimental inner face of the rational male persona Pros: Intuitive, warm, better understanding of feelings Cons: moody, “catty”, etc.
24
Archetypes The Animus –A woman’s “masculine” side Predisposes women to understand the nature of man Serves as the rational inner face of the sentimental female persona Pros: Reason and logic Cons: “... harping on some irrelevant weak points and making it into the main point... “
25
Archetypes The Self –A “potential” archetype in all of us Represents a goal Is achieved by exploring the UCS parts of psyche and learning more about these parts
26
Archetypes The Self Understanding the psyche as a whole Self provides stability and balance to the psyche

Dreams Carl Jung believed a dreams content uses symbolic language He proposed that a dream expresses collective unconscious memories and instincts shared by all people. These are basic ideas that are themselves symbols.
31
Dreams I was riding in a car. The car stooped near this other vehicle from which a person came out and shot the trunk. It was clear in my dream that this was a robbery. Later, I saw myself as a prisoner on the back of a car shoving coin from a box. After all this, I saw my body flying away and I was trying to land on a hill but there was a lot of them and many of them were marked at the pick. I was afraid to land because some of them had traps.

Sound familiar? Personality Analysis based on the Draw-a-Person-Test Analysis by: Patrick Markey Analysis of: Anonymous Personality Profile: 241-56-873-BC You enjoy change and variety in your life, but do not like to have things change too drastically. You are fairly ambitious but sometimes worry if you are making the right choices in your life. Sometimes you are insecure, but you don't think that other people realize this.
