Carl Jung: Modern Man in Search of a Soul Background Jung combined an intense intellectuality with a passionate spirituality. His road to this “middle way” was the world of dreams, art, world religions, mythology and philosophy. Freud and Jung When Freud and Jung met they talked for 13 straight hours! Individuation The overarching goal of Jung’s work was the joining of the life of the individual with the world of the unconscious, not the dark one, but the numinous and creative unconscious. Individuation The goal of human health was to be a fully integrated human being at home in the world of rationality and consciousness, but also in the world of symbols and unconscious forces. The Shadow Jung emphasized the importance of being aware of shadow material and incorporating it into conscious awareness. Anima and Animus For a person to reach full individuation they must find a sense of inner balance between the masculine and feminine energies residing within them. Types and Functions Introverts need people and extraverts need solitude. It is a matter of how much and how often. Types and Functions Once we know our type and function, Jung taught that it is also good to try and engage our weaker functions so that we promote balance in our lives. Summary Jung once said in remarking on his followers: “Thank God I am Jung and not a Jungian!” * *
