Quote

On the level of the Son there is no answer to the question of good and evil there is only an incurable separation of the opposites. . . . It seems to me to be the Holy Spirit's task and charge to reconcile and reunite the opposites in the human individual through a special development of the human soul.

Carl Jung
Image
I live in my deepest hell and from there I cannot fall any further.
Carl Jung
Image

Carl Jung

Whenever you hear anyone talking about a cultural or even about a human problem, you should never forget to inquire who the speaker really is. The more general the problem, the more the person will smuggle his or her own personal psychology into the account he or she gives of it.

A purely psychological explanation is ruled out... the discs show signs of intelligent guidance, by quasi-human pilots.
Carl Jung
Image
Had I left those images hidden in the emotions, I might have been torn to pieces by them.
Carl Jung

When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate.
Carl Jung
Image
It is also possible for the unconscious or an archetype to take complete possession of a man and to determine his fate down to the smallest detail
Carl Jung
Image
We must be able to let things happen in the psyche. For us, this becomes a real art... Consciousness is forever interfering, helping, correcting, and negating, never leaving the single growth of the psychic processes in peace.
Carl Jung
Image
Understanding does not cure evil, but it is a definite help, inasmuch as one can cope with a comprehensible darkness.
Carl Jung
Image
So the lion is the law-breaker. Just as to the primitive man the lion is the lawbreaker, the great nuisance, dangerous to human beings and to animals, that breaks into the Kraal at night and fetches the bull out of the herd: he is the destructive instinct.
Carl Jung
Image
Fortunately, in her kindness and patience, Nature has never put the fatal question as to the meaning of their lives into the mouths of most people. And where no one asks, no one needs to answer.
Carl Jung
Image
Every psychic advance of man arises from the suffering of the soul.
Carl Jung
Image
The true leader is always led.
Carl Jung
Image
One is forced to speak not of what is held in common between the cultures, but what is held in common between the myths, and that in its simplest archetypal forms.

Psychoanalysis cannot be considered a method of education if by education we mean the topiary art of clipping a tree into a beautiful artificial shape. But those who have a higher conception of education will prize most the method of cultivating a tree so that it fulfils to perfection its own natural conditions of growth.
Carl Jung
