Where Wisdom Reigns, There Is

The Collective Unconscious Appears To Consist Of Mythological Motifs Or Primordial Images, For Which Reason The Myths Of All Nations Are Its Real Exponents. In Fact The Whole Of Mythology Could Be Taken As A Sort Of Projection Of The Collective Unconscious. We Can See This Most Clearly If We Look At The Heavenly Constellations, Whose Originally Chaotic Forms Are Organized Through The Projection Of Images. This Explains The Influence Of The Stars As Asserted By Astrologers. These Influences Are Nothing But Unconscious Instrospective Perceptions Of The Collective Unconscious.

The Great Decisions Of Human Life Have As A Rule Far More To Do With The Instincts And Other Mysterious Unconscious Factors Than With Conscious Will And Well-meaning Reasonableness. The Shoe That Fits One Person Pinches Another; There Is No Recipe For Living That Suits All Cases. Each Of Us Carries His Own Life-form- An Indeterminable Form Which Cannot Be Superseded By Any Other.

Between The Dreams Of Night And Day There Is Not So Great A Difference.

If People Can Be Educated To See The Lowly Side Of Their Own Natures, It May Be Hoped That They Will Also Learn To Understand And To Love Their Fellow Men Better. A Little Less Hypocrisy And A Little More Tolerance Towards Oneself Can Only Have Good Results In Respect For Our Neighbor; For We Are All Too Prone To Transfer To Our Fellows The Injustice And Violence We Inflict Upon Our Own Natures.

Shrinking Away From Death Is Something Unhealthy And Abnormal Which Robs The Second Half Of Life Of Its Purpose.
