"And what made it even sadder was basic Jungian talking points were getting shit on. This has always been a pro-psychoanalysis subreddit. Now it's like every other subreddit where redditors with room temperature IQs act like they're Einsteins because they hate Freud and don't believe in astrology."
"I, too, felt that the therapists I worked with were not helping me, nor did they have any knowledge or appreciation for psychologists I admire such as Jung."
"What the hell are they teaching kids these days? I still remember the freud and Jung lesson I got in my one HS class about psychology, and that's it."
"I'm dating a grad student who's never heard of Carl Jung and i sound like an astrology girlie when i try to explain archetypes to them"
"Spring is the season of animalistic energy. All wildlife is more aggressive in spring and humans are no different. Too much energy too quickly poses a control issue for the state, so the state devises clever tricks to sublimate this energy innocuously (using a combination of Jungian, Freudian, Berna"
"I use to know and fulfil my pattern and now I'm being eaten"
"Or in Jungian terms, Bucs are both the child trickster and senile old man (peripheries), Chiefs are both the smothering great mother and strict disappointing father (centers)."
"The psychological importance of sexuality and the existence of plausible sexual analogies make a deviation into sex extremely easy in cases of regression, so that it naturally seems as if all one's troubles were due to a sexual wish that is unjustly denied fulfilment. This reasoning is typical of th"
"i think its fine and healthy for women to want to look good and to be confident, and obviously the phrase 'office siren' has been mimetically separated from its orginal meaning but the use of siren for oneself is definitely weird, no doubt some jungian could have a field day with that one."
"If you have read Jung's Red Book, etc. you will know that he was visited by 'Philemon' a spirit guide he conversed wv; I've seen Jungians claim to find they're own spirit guide in these dreams."
"Left a really weird feeling when thinking about it in the morning, you know? Like a mix of trying to figure out what it meant while coping with the idea of wearing another head. In a Jungian sense I wonder if that person exists/existed at one point irl."
"Carl Jung - Modern Man in Search of a Soul"
"Jung put it best, individuation and becoming oneself can only truly happen when one gives themself to something else, normally another person. Dante, upon gazing at the Empyrean, is moved by love, the love that moves the sun and all the other stars."
"Every recovery group besides AA seems to devolve into a rape cult of some kind, and I'm pretty sure the only reason it hasn't happened to AA is because they brought in Carl Jung to idiot-proof it."
"Also will Jung fix my self-perception or is his work purely theoretical and unpracticeable? Has anyone actually created a 'persona' that they just became?"
"I've read about the mind and consciousness and I know I am not my thoughts; Alan Watts, Eckhart Tolle, Jung, Joe Rogan, I've tried them all."

"*Answer to Job* - Carl Jung (Basically lays out Jung's belief that God's "jealousy" for His people is actually His need of our consciousness to observe Him and therefore make Him real. Jung also suggests that Christ came to earth to make up for what God did to Job, who correctly accused God of injus"
"I know the dream interpretation methods of Fromm, Freud, and Jung that he details in the book are not 100% correct"
"I clicked on a single video about Carl Jung three weeks ago"
"I started reading Jordan Peterson, and found him to be very helpful. This led me down the Jung rabbit hole."
