Analytical Psychology
Analytical Psychology is Carl Jung’s system for understanding the human psyche through symbols and deep unconscious processes.
It distinguishes between the personal unconscious and the collective unconscious, the latter being shared across humanity.
Core concepts include Individuation, Projection, archetypes (Shadow, Anima/Animus, the Self), Psychological types (introvert/extrovert) and functions (sensation, intuition, thinking, feeling) and Synchronicity.
Analytical Psychology values dream interpretation, active imagination, and symbolic amplification as tools for self-realization.
