2. ANALYTICAL PSYCHOLOGY
JUNG’S SYSTEM OF
PSYCHOLOGY
INTRODUCTION: Carl Gustav Jung is considered the founder of
Analytical Psychology was born in Kesswil, Switzerland, in 1875. In
1906 he struck up a correspondence with Sigmund Freud father of
psychoanalysis (a method of treating mentally ill patients with
dialogues). It appeared his close working relationship with Freud
would make him the heir apparent as the chief theoretician of
psychoanalysis.Indeed, he was the First President of the
“International Psychoanalytic Society”. However, like Adler, he
became disenchanted with Freudian theory. Basic disagreements over
emphasis on (sexuality).

4. In 1912 Carl Gustav Jung established his own school of Psychological
thoughts which he named as “Analytical Psychology”.
Analytical psychology is the analysis of the human mind, psyche and
the unconscious, as well as the conscious components of the mind.
Consciousness “refers to our individual awareness of thoughts,
memories, feelings, sensations and environment”.
Example: For example, we are aware of our environment,our breathing,
or the chair that we are sitting on.
Unconsciousness “unwanted or unacceptable ideas, wishes or desires,
memories, and emotions”.
These unwanted things are pushed down into the unconscious so that we
do not have to deal with them and so they do not interfere or cause
problems in our daily lives.
Example: During our childhood, we acquired countless memories and
experiences.However, we cannot recall most of those memories.A
horrifying dream can be an example of this.

5. STRUCTURE OF THE PSYCHE OR MIND
Conscious Mind:The upper layer of one’s mind (neo cortex)
consists of the memories,thoughts and feelings that result from
one’s consciousness (awareness).It infact develops one’s ego and
behavior.
It is further divided into ‘Personal unconscious’ and the ‘collective
unconscious’.
Personal Unconscious:It is the layer of mind dealing with one’s
personal and individual thinking.
Example:Neglected or repressed desires,ideas,feelings,fears,guilts,
anxieties,forgotten incidents or dreams,private or family experiencies
occurring in the lifetime of an individual.
Collective Unconscious:It is the layer of mind dealing with the
universal ideas and thinkings of one’s mind.
Example:Thinkings,feelings and doings by one’s ancestors being
transferred from generation to generation.

6. Archetypes:The term "archetype" has its origins in ancient Greek.
The root words are archein, which means "original or old"; and typos,
which means "pattern, model or type". The combined meaning is an
"original pattern" of which all other similar persons, objects, or
concepts are derived, copied and modeled.
Archetypes are the roots and bases of the collective unconscious.“These
are inherited ideas which are transferred to every generation and culture
since the beginning of mankind”.

7. Different Archetypes
THE MOTHER ARCHETYPE:
It is an eternal idea or image which is inherited from generation to
generation and is common and universal to all cultures and
races.EXAMPLE:The image of the mother is pious,warm,loving
and nourshing.

8. THE FATHER ARCHETYPE
In contrast to the mother archetype,the father archetype reflects
strength,authority and power.

9. THE HERO ARCHETYPE
Motto: Where there's a will, there's a way
Core desire: to prove one's worth through courageous acts
Goal: expert mastery in a way that improves the world
Greatest fear: weakness, vulnerability, being a "chicken"
Strategy: to be as strong and competent as possible
Weakness: arrogance, always needing another battle to fight
Talent: competence and courage
The Hero is also known as: The warrior, crusader, rescuer, superhero, the soldier,
dragon slayer, the winner and the team player.

10. The Persona
The persona: is how we present ourselves to the world. The word
"persona" is derived from a Latin word that literally means "mask."It is not a
literal mask, however. The persona represents all of the different social masks
that we wear among different groups and situations. It acts to shield the ego
from negative images. According to Jung, the persona may appear in dreams
and take a number of different forms.

11. The Anima or Animus
The anima is a feminine image in the male psyche(mind or
thinking) and the animus is a male image in the female
psyche(mind or thinking).
According to Jung “every male has a female in himself and
every female has a male in herself ”.
The presence of both male and female characteristics in the
individual may be due to their living together from times
immemorial.

12. The Shadow
“It may represent all that is bad and mean in man”.In the words of
Jung, “it tells us everything that all humans refuses to acknowledge
about themselves”.
Example:It is composed of repressed ideas, weaknesses, desires,
instincts, and shortcomings.

13. The Self
The self is a universal idea present in all the primitive(old) religions and
philosophies.
Hinduism:Considers it as Atma.
Islam:Considers it as soul.
The self represents the unconsciousness and consciousness of an individual. The
creation of the self occurs through a process known as individuation, in which
the various aspects of personality are integrated. Jung often represented the self
as a circle, square, or mandala.

14. Religion,Creativity and Motive of Self Actualization
Religion:Religion is the need of humanbeings and morality is
present in their collective unconcious.
Creativity:The creativity of one’s mind need some kind of
expression.In this way one expresses his talents and abilities.
Self Actualization:These are one’s ultimate goals in life which
he/she wants to achieve in their lives.

15. The Concept Of Libido And Personality
Development
Libido:Jung said it to be as ‘life urge’ or ‘life energy’ responsible for every
kind of human activity.
Example:One of the example is Sex its normal flow makes an individual
normal while its abnormal flow or blockage may result in abnormalities.
Extroverts:They take pleasure in activities that involve large social
gatherings, such as parties, community activities, public demonstrations, and
business or political groups. They also tend to work well in groups.
Example
Introverts:Introverts often take pleasure in solitary (alone) activities such as
reading, writing, using computers, hiking and fishing. The artist, writer,
sculptorers, engineer, composer and inventor are all highly introverted. An
introvert is likely to enjoy time spent alone and find less reward in time spent
with large groups of people, though he or she may enjoy interactions with close
friends.

16. Dreams and Neuroses
Dreams:According to Jung dreams are not meant by artificial
wish fulfilment.They work as a true companion to one’s mind in
problem solving of day to day difficulties.
Neuroses:The cause that present is more important than the past.It
represents one’s lack of ability to cope with the environment.Once
his confidence is restored he/she can strive through all the
difficulties easily.

17. Jung’s psychotherapy
The therapy suggested by Jung is centered around by making firstly,
the patient understand what is wrong with him/her.Secondly the
patient is then helped to have an insight into his problems and
afterwards helped him to cope with the changing environment.
i.e to seek an independent solution of his problem.

potential.
 Set the goals of education.
 Realize the need and importance of religious or moral education.
 Do have a check and balance on introvert and extrovert nature of
