Deep dives

Recognition of Archetypal Energies in the World

Jung noticed that archetypal energies and meanings extend beyond human experience and can be found in synchronicity, where nature reflects archetypal principles. He emphasized the idea that psyche is not confined within individuals but that individuals participate in a psychically saturated cosmos where all things breathe together. This recognition led to a shift in perspective about the interconnectedness of the external world and our internal psyches.
