Sometimes a tree tells you more than can be read in books.
Carl Jung
Image
The most important question anyone can ask is: What myth am I living?
Carl Jung
Image
To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real.
Carl Jung
Image
The conscious mind allows itself to be trained like a parrot, but the unconscious does not — which is why St. Augustine thanked God for not making him responsible for his dreams.
Carl Jung
Image
Neurosis is always a substitute for legitimate suffering.
Carl Jung
Image
If there is a fear of falling, the only safety consists in deliberately jumping.
Carl Jung
Image
Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams who looks inside, awakes.
Carl Jung
Image
The primary cause of unhappiness in the world today is... lack of faith.
Carl Jung
Image
Just as man as a social being, cannot in the long run exist without a tie to the community, so the individual will never find the real justification for his existence, and his own spiritual and moral autonomy, anywhere except in an extramundane principle capable of relativizing the overpowering influence of external factors.
Carl Jung
Image
In such doubtful matters, where you have to work as a pioneer, you must be able to put some trust in your intuition and follow your feeling even at the risk of going wrong.
Carl Jung
Image
Synchronicity is an ever present reality for those who have eyes to see.
Carl Jung
Image
How else could it have occurred to man to divide the cosmos, on the analogy of day and night, summer and winter, into a bright day-world and a dark night-world peopled with fabulous monsters, unless he had the prototype of such a division in himself, in the polarity between the conscious and the invisible and unknowable unconscious?
Carl Jung
Image
Without playing with fantasy, no creative work has yet come into being.
Carl Jung
Image
Dream the dream onward.
Carl Jung
Image
Not only does the psyche exist, but it is existence itself. It is an almost absurd prejudice to suppose that existence can only be physical...We might well say, on the contrary, that physical existence is a mere inference, since we know of matter only in so far as we perceive psychic images mediated by the senses.
Carl Jung
Image
Knowledge rests not upon truth alone, but upon error also.
Carl Jung
Image
The unconscious is not just evil by nature, it is also the source of the highest good: not only dark but also light, not only bestial, semihuman, and demonic but superhuman, spiritual, and, in the classical sense of the word, divine.
Carl Jung
Image
Be simple and always take the next step. You needn't see it in advance, but you can look back at it afterwards.There is no 'how' of life, one just does it.
Carl Jung
Image
The greatest tragedy of the family is the unlived lives of the parents.
Carl Jung
Image
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort.
Carl Jung
