Quote

Dream analysis stands or falls with [the hypothesis of the unconscious]. Without it the dream appears to be merely a freak of nature, a meaningless conglomerate of memory-fragments left over from the happenings of the day.

Conflict exists strictly as an opportunity to raise our consciousness.
Carl Jung
Image
What we do not make conscious emerges later as fate.
Carl Jung
Image
Learn your techniques well and be prepared to let them go when you touch the human soul.
Carl Jung
Image
The dream is a little hidden door in the innermost and most secret recesses of the soul, opening into that cosmic night which was psyche long before there was any ego-consciousness, and which will remain psyche no matter how far our ego-consciousness extends.
Carl Jung
Image
The growth of the mind is the widening of the range of consciousness, and each step forward has been a most painful and laborious achievement.
Carl Jung
Image
An archetypal content expresses itself, first and foremost, in metaphors.
Carl Jung
Image
Conflicts create the fire of affects and emotions and like every fire it has two aspects: that of burning and that of giving light.
Carl Jung
Image
What happens in the life of Christ happens always and everywhere. In the Christian archetype all lives of this kind are prefigured.
Carl Jung
Image
The upheaval of our world and the upheaval in consciousness is one and the same. Everything becomes relative and therefore doubtful. And while man, hesitant and questioning, contemplates... his spirit yearns for an answer that will allay the turmoil of doubt and uncertainty.
Carl Jung
Image
But, if you have nothing at all to create, then perhaps you create yourself.
Carl Jung
Image
It is a bewildering thing in human life that the things that cause the greatest fear is the source of the greatest wisdom.
Carl Jung
Image
I shall not commit the fashionable stupidity of regarding everything I cannot explain as a fraud.
Carl Jung
Image
The highest, most decisive experience is to be alone with one's own self. You must be alone to find out what supports you, when you find that you can not support yourself. Only this experience can give you an indestructible foundation.
Carl Jung
Image
The sight of a child…will arouse certain longings in adult, civilized persons — longings which relate to the unfulfilled desires and needs of those parts of the personality which have been blotted out of the total picture in favor of the adapted persona.
Carl Jung
Image
Life calls not for perfection, but for completeness.
Carl Jung
Image
Special knowledge is a terrible disadvantage.
Carl Jung
Image
Dreams are the guiding words of the Soul.
Carl Jung
Image
The right way to wholeness is made up of fateful detours and wrong turnings.
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
The word 'happiness' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced and contrasted and compared to sadness. In comparing how an experience could have been worse we develop gratitude and happiness, while if we compare it how it could have been better we develop bitterness and sadness.
Carl Jung
