carl gustav jung taught that dreams and myths use the same symbolic language in the human psyche with vivid illustrations stories and podcasts i show that fairytales and legends anticipate therapy a tale begins with boredom anxiety depression or injured narcissism and ends by showing how these may heal legends also show how a woman s individuation may differ from a man s jung freud and kohut jungian psychoanalysis diverged from freudian therapy when jung broke from freud early last century jung emphasized the prospective forward looking meaning of symbols in dreams jungian therapy gives less weight to but does not deny repressed sexual feelings it differs from traditional freudian theory by considering obstacles to prospective striving to be as important as childhood conflicts like heinz kohut jung emphasized leading edge interpretations what is positive here rather than what is the problem jungian therapy or analysis is face to face jung said that only the therapist s whole self could do justice to the patient s whole self in this way he anticipated intersubjectivity which is central to current thought in psychoanalysis dreams a jungian psychotherapist often interprets dreams jung taught that the guiding self uses dreams to support growth an analyst interprets a dream in order to better understand the direction of the self thus therapy s agenda may be to increase consciousness this means a better dialogue between consciousness and the unconscious out of which dialogue direction emerges a more conscious relationship with the unconscious leads to a greater sense of meaning and greater fulfillment dreams fairy tales myths and religious symbols all seek to bring unconscious forms and impulses into consciousness thus widening the range of consciousness archetypes jung showed that similar archetypal images occur in different people s dreams independent of the dreamer s education similar images also occur in myths from unrelated cultures such images carry psychological energy and suggest future developments an archetypal image appears to us because it represents an as yet unconscious potential if it is blocked an archetypal potential may lead to illness when therapy helps us to relate more consciously to an archetypal image it releases its energy for growth carl jung s approach resembles that of many traditional cultures because traditional cultures often attend closely to dreams renewal while an archetype as such is universal the corresponding archetypal image is derived from the dreamer s experience the shadow anima animus and self are common archetypal forms and in therapy each of these may become more conscious each usually appears as a charged human figure archetypes though numerous are still limited in number because they represent objective universal factors the personality renews itself by integrating new archetypal potentials search this site search for
