CARL JUNG’S ANALYTIC THEORY OR ANALYTICAL PSYCHOLOGY Collective unconscious  all human beings share certain unconscious ideas because we are all human and were created from similar evolutionary circumstances and common ancestors. the collective unconscious are known as archetypes. The self: Our feelings of wholeness and unity, our sense of organization within our personality, our identity The persona: The artificial, phony self that we show to others; our public self that conforms to societal standards, the personality “mask” that we wear in public  The anima: The feminine side of men  The animus: The masculine side of women  The shadow: The dark, cruel side of us that contains animal urges and feelings of inferiority. Jung considered the shadow to be a source of creativity  The Mother: The nurturing, loving  The Father: The demanding and rewarding  The Baby: The helpless infant  The Man: The strong, aggressive, rational male  The Maiden: The fair, unspoiled, intuitive female  The God: The Almighty, the guiding light  The Devil: The embodiment of evil  The Wild Man: The untamed primitive, hairy and dangerous  The Trickster: A mischievous figure who plays pranks  TheBoogie Man: A monster which preys on reckless children  The Mandala: The circular symbol of self and consciousness, usually with something holy in the middle  TheHero: The strong, capable man who saves and protects  TheHag: The old, deformed woman who casts spells or makes poisons  The Wise Man: The sage, usually with a long white beard ATTITUDES: TWO TYPES OF PERSONALITIES Extraverts The extraversion attitude orients a person toward the external world outward turning of "goal-directed energy Extraverted people channel their life energy into activities and social involvement Introverts The introversion attitude drives a person toward the inner, subjective world. Introverts, by contrast, are turned inward, more interested in the life of the mind than the events of the outside world RATIONAL OR JUDGING TYPE Some people seem to use their minds all the time, making conscious value judgments about which way to direct themselves. The feeling type - makes decisions according to emotional evaluations The thinking type. The thinking type makes decisions based on conscious calculations (for example, marrying somebody who will someday be rich). IRRATIONAL TYPE One who relies on perception or intuition to guide decision-making. They tend to be rooted in the present, and they are more likely to make snap decisions or do impulsive things. Some irrational types emphasize sensation. They respond to external stimuli and are quite attentive to sensory perceptions, which guide their actions in a way they would be at a loss to explain. Such a person might be found wandering in a meadow on a pleasant morning, drinking in the sights and sounds, or spending all night at a nightclub, for no reason the person could identify except "liking it."
