The mental agility that allows understanding and establishes relationships between things is a skill, say, of the cerebral system. The problem is how the facts in need to be processed can reach this level. The Achilles heel of many intelligent people is that they have brains but no “guts”. They lack the liver (the organ that in ancient Greece was synonymous of courage) to see and feel what needs their intellectual revision. In other words, what’s the good of having intelligence if you don’t have enough testosterone and ovaries to face what intelligence needs to decipher?

A person’s character is associated to his ability to withstand the destabilization that accompanies all awareness. Destabilization means tension, discomfort, anxiety. Nobody likes that, right? However, without sustaining the tension produced between opposites situations / ideas / thoughts there is no evolution.

Light is the third element born from the union of two opposites, the negative and the positive electric current. Likewise, anything that contradicts the status quo causes inevitable emotional distress. However, it’s from this buzzing kettle that anything new is born. Because they can’t withstand the tension, and even before they can clearly see the opposites at stake, many people summarily remove what they feel in order to end the tension. In its place made up justification are stuck, which at a closer look don’t make real sense (therefore these people also don’t like a good debate of ideas).

It seems to me that this is the greatest difficulty. Any change, especially those for the better, are announced by tension. When usual situations in life need to be changed, whatever they are, home, work, friends, boyfriend, career; when you need to change your mind, beliefs, practice; when you begin to say what you think and stop the make-believe; when you want to finally take control over your life and do justice to what is just discarding what is wrong: in all these moments an inner tension comes upon you and if you don’t have the moral strength to endure it there will be no change at all. What you know to happen will not materialize as there is emotional testosterone to be carried on. To justify their own cowardice, people invent excuses. It’s typical (or expected?) that “smart” people “understand” and don’t create “silly” discussions. To the smart one, everything is “fine”, “in order” and “quiet.”

Because of this moral weakness the doors for abuse are open. Unscrupulous individuals take advantage of smart people who “do not want problems.” Lies are supported by smart people who are aware but don’t want “trouble”. To avoid fights, intelligent people accept unfair and harmful conditions, in the name of “peace”. It’s mainly to intelligent people that the concept of being good and fool applies (Read my Being Good Not Foolish).

According to modern physics, the vastness of the universe with its galaxies, planets, the Earth, plants, animals, humans, in short ALL it has came from a tiny speck, invisible to naked eye, unique, which in a certain moment “exploded”. This theory is called Big Bang. What made this little thing open up, unfold, expand and flourish in the amazing reality we know? What is the spark for the turning point?

It’s the feeling of discomfort. An uneasiness pregnant with possibilities ferments inside and grows, grows, grows…until it explodes into a new universe: a new consciousness, a new life, a new individual. A new truth.

This process is natural, it exists for billions of years. It crossed the mysterious blip that gave life to the universe and crosses our heart, mind and guts every day. Some call it God, truth is that it’s powerful. It had the courage to shatter itself into millions of forms, some extinct other victorious, like ours. Now it throbs in the human soul and the humans vacillate between following it or sabotaging it, opening up or shutting down, saying yes or pretending to be deaf. Here is where intelligence should have its final test.

You have to thoroughly learn the dream language so that you may be able to immediately understand the unconscious messages, but the most important of all is to follow the guidance of the unconscious mind. The basic point of your practice when you interpret the meaning of your dreams is your personal evolution.

Thanks to the information and the lessons you receive in your dreams you will transform your personality and solve all the problems of your life because you will see all their causes. Right now your vision is too limited by your ignorance, by the lies of our false world, by the hypocrisy of our society, by your one-sided psychological type, and by many other obstacles that you cannot see.

Thanks to the unconscious lessons revealed through your dreams, you will no longer be blinded like you are today. You’ll see all the details of reality that you have despised for so long because you didn’t care for their importance.

Then you’ll understand how foolish you are now that you don’t care about all these revealing details. They can show you if someone is telling you the truth or if they are lying, or how your future will be, or any number of truths which affect your life and your psychological well being.

You have to learn how to analyze reality and understand its symbolism, which is the same as the symbolism contained in your dreams, so that you may have precious information about many things. Your personality and all your capacities will have the chance to be developed because you’ll finally care about all your psychological functions.

Our psychological functions are based on: thoughts, feelings, sensations and intuition. If the psychological function you prefer is based on feelings for example, you’ll despise the other ones, deciding everything in your life based only on your feelings. In other words you will let your emotions run your life.

Through dream interpretation according to the scientific method you will learn to care about everything, and make the right decisions. The wisdom of the unconscious mind that produces your dreams will surprise you. You’ll understand that you have the privilege of being in contact with a superior mind that knows everything and helps you in every way.

Today you live a hurried life and you demand quick answers from everyone. You want a dry “yes or no” without explanations because you have more important things to care about. You think you are smart, you have the answers to everything. You are very selfish and you care only about your own interests…

After following dream therapy you’ll discover that you are in fact wasting your time living the way that you do. You run everyday because you believe that you are doing something important. However, you are only becoming older, without evolving. The unconscious mind will teach you to care deeply about all explanations. It will also teach you the value of patience.

You’ll learn how to be humble after verifying the depth of your ignorance. You will also see how naive you are because you don’t pay attention to many important facts. You keep repeating the same mistakes without learning anything from your previous tragic experiences because you are lazy and you don’t want to change your attitude.

The meaning of your dreams will show you the truth. Then you’ll correct all your mistakes and learn how to act wisely in all circumstances. You will begin a new life totally different from the empty one you lead now, feeling fulfilled and really happy with yourself.

You can verify how helpful the meaning of your dreams is and discover a healing process as you analyze the unconscious messages. Dreaming is traveling inside your psyche and observing the characteristics of your personality. Dreaming is being in contact with the superior wisdom of the unconscious mind and learning:

- The meaning of life,
- The meaning of death,
- How to be wise,
- How to find true happiness,
- How to transform your personality,
- How to change your life,
- How to self-heal your body as you heal your psyche, and many things more.

I hope that you don’t feel uncomfortable with the idea of caring about your dreams and writing them down. When you’ll write them down and understand their meaning, I’m sure that you are going to like this practice very much.

Dream interpretation offers support to desperate people helping them understand why they are suffering and how to overcome their depression. It gives inspiration to artists and solutions to inventors. Dream interpretation according to the scientific method is motivation and knowledge because it puts you into contact with the unconscious wisdom. This is a source of eternal knowledge and support.

You only have to learn the dream language in order to understand the words of wisdom contained in your own dreams. These words will enlighten you and heal your spirit the same way that they will heal your body.

I have simplified the method of dream interpretation discovered by Carl Jung after proving that he was right. Because of my work, today you can immediately translate the dream images into words that you can understand.

Begin writing down your dreams in a dream journal whenever you remember them and you feel that it is important to do so.

You will need a diary to briefly record the daily events that go on in your life. It is essential that you cross reference what is going on in your daily life with your dream life. It is through your dreams that you will find the answers you need in your waking state.

Read all the information I have already given you online about the meaning of dreams and translate whatever you can from your dream collection, after recording a few dreams.

Do this and begin understanding the benefits of dream interpretation thanks to the scientific analysis of the meaning of dreams. You only have to pay attention to your dreams and write them down. You’ll spend but a few minutes of your time.

Later you will become very excited to learn much more about the meaning of dreams and their power, just like millions of people who have already discovered the benefits of dream interpretation.

Then you’ll spend a lot of time analyzing your dreams in detail, feeling very happy for having the free unconscious guidance that gives you solutions to all problems.

If people pay to watch the show, it must mean something to them, unless we decide that such a large amount of the population is just dull. That would be a stupid psychological conclusion. Truth is that we only do what is significant to us, even when we don’t understand our own reasons (and that’s the problem).

Beauty and the Beast is an instructive fairy tale that has a lot to say about our psychological reality.

Beauty is a “strange girl”, as her peers say. She’s always with an open book in her hands that makes her imagination fly and see other places, people, and marvels. She is as sensitive to this “other world”, which we can only call the “inner world”, as she is indifferent to the outside and its glamour.

Who would Beauty be today? A girl who likes to read and doesn’t fit in her group of classmates, who has a critical vision of Disney Channel and its stars. Someone who doesn’t like to spend her days in shopping centers. To the average teens this Beauty would look absurd, most certainly, she would not be considered “normal”. Her parents might even be concerned about her “introversion”, while her peers, mainly girls, would unmercifully bully her, for her being different functions as a smack in their face. Modern Beauty’s behavior would show to her peers that what is so important to them can be seen otherwise. And because the other girls may actually feel that their values are not so real as they think, they need to put down and shut alternative voices, such as Beauty’s. So, let’s (psychologically) kill the different.

In the musical everything shines melody and happiness because we are looking through Beauty’s eyes and are merged in her world and challenges. But from the outside, Beauty’s life would be miserable.

Beauties like this there are many around. They may not be glamorously looking and surely they are not popular. When they are beautiful they might believe they are ugly for this is how the world sees them. They have beauty inside, and often hold it tight to protect it, therefore they are shy, which doesn’t help with their “introversion” and “relationship issues”. These Beauties fight a solitary battle, and feel so desperately alone.

In the fairy tale, Beauty refuses Gaston who is the representation of the system itself. Gaston symbolizes the common mentality and the standard values. He’s the reflection of the average masculine figure in a highly extroverted society. Thus, Gaston and his followers (men and women) are as blind to the inner world as insensitive to other points of view. To them, everything must fit in the established pattern. He wants Beauty not because he loves her, but to conquer and dominate the one to whom he means nothing.

By despising Gaston, Beauty is courageously setting the standards for the life she wants for herself. That’s what any “good girl” in her individuation process do. Beauty wants to be herself and thus it’s crucial that she doesn’t accept Gaston. He tells her that he will make all “her dreams come true”. But which dreams? Whose dreams? Beauty’s inner deep dreams or the collective stereotyped ideals? Gaston, as the expression of masculine banality molded by the unreflective thinking, would actually kill Beauty’s dreams.

Beauty says no to Gaston and meets the Beast. That’s what happens when one denies giving in to the mass media stereotypes. This person will have to face the Beast, the unrefined, grotesque, and scary first step in one’s journey of individuation. The Beast, as the story says, is the other face of the beautiful persona we show off to the world. The Beast is a threaten and a promise. Unused as people are to deal with the wilderness inside, the Beast represents everything has been put aside, shut off, “forgotten” and ignored. Our true potential prince charming. The one that makes us be who we are.

Beauty had dreamed about another life, which is possible, but it doesn’t come for free, there’s a price to pay and a battle to win. Many adolescents happen to have now and then the healthy feeling of refusing the status quo and following their vision. However, fresh and young as they are, and mainly, alone, they don’t have knowledge neither guidance to reach what they want and thus turning their dreams true. As we all know, life is not easy at all. One thing is wishing and idealizing, a totally diverse one is rolling one’s sleeves up and work on it, and guess what, without an instruction manual. This existential dilemma is frequently dragged on for years and years ahead, until people find themselves in their forties realizing that they still didn’t accomplished their dreams.

What’s the path the fairy tales suggests? Introversion, perseverance, acceptance and love.

Beauty is lost in the forest – as any of us would be after refusing Gaston/status quo (“What the heck will I do now?”). She’s alone and scared, and as usual it rains (matching our own tears). She needs a shelter. The forest is the place of the unconsciousness, far from the civilized mind, the ego palace with its comfortable trite reality. In the forest one silences, and observes. Instincts gain strength and are sharpened. It’s time to feel. From the outside, a person in the forest will appear as introverted.

The palace in the forest tells us that there’s something big going on there. The wilderness is fully alive and carries a deep message. The master of this side of the psyche’s world is righteously cursed by a wise witch. He’s the result of a personality excessively opened to the outside ignoring the inside, which is: consciousness, spirituality, ethics, meaning. The vain prince is doomed to die (of course, who wants a bi-dimensional life?) unless he’s able to love and be loved. Such a beautiful curse.

Who can love the ugly, rude and scary Beast? Only someone to whom the average mentality and life style is uglier, ruder and scarier. Beauty. Because what we refuse is utterly unbearable, because the idea of giving up our own personality and uniqueness is worse than dying, we face the Beast. The outside door is shut, it only remains to move on, that is: to go deeper. From the outside, a person in this journey will look much introverted and even depressed. She’ll be like a boat sailing in turbulent waters. She will benefit from qualified tuned help, even though she’s perfectly normal and she’s reacting as expected before what is at stake.

By being available and donating her attention to the situation, for Beauty is completely plugged in the prince’s castle, not having any extra diversion, she finds her way to the Beast’s heart. It’s quicker and easier to solve a case when we are completely dedicated to it. What seemed incomprehensible and frightening, acquires a new face and finally the two love birds are close to break the spell and live happily ever after. From the outside a person looks to have recovered her self esteem and confidence. But the battle is not ended. We still have Gaston to deal with. What shall we do with this guy?

Protect us. The marvelous reality we find in your personal inner journey continues to be invisible to the outside world and, worse, the extroverted and superficial outside fears the mysterious inner side of the psyche. Therefore, once again let’s kill the different. And there it goes Gaston and his followers fulfilled by pious beliefs stuffed between one ego’s sin and another, to eliminate the Beast, that is, the person who dared to carry out her difference.

This last fight of the first scene of the individuation process contributes to its apotheosis and realization. Gaston apparently wins, but he actually frees the Beast. When everything seems to be lost, it’s time for that self esteem and confidence in blossom to show that they are for real. Once again, being positive in one’s home is not enough. The world demands its toll and by doing so it gives us the opportunity to make our inner beauty shine. The transformation is complete, the Beast has left the scene and made room to the Prince. Our future is now available to us. We have our own mind and project. The path is open, we got married to our own Self.

The army psychological test was established because a certain test revealed that some of the American officers ranked low in the intelligence test. The army didn’t want to define intelligence but in order to classify the recruits quickly, the authorities look for a help from psychologists. Tests were assembled to help in evaluating the future soldiers and how they would potentially perform under different conditions.

It would be expensive mistake for the army to hire incompetent employees. The authorities are continuously developing better methods to weed out potential soldiers. It’s quite difficult to judge a person based on physical appearance. With the pre-employment screenings, only the best-fit soldiers will be hired by the army.

The psychological tests are aimed to determine if a person is capable of making logical connections. The tests will also reveal a part of your personality. You will simply need to answer some questions and the answers can reveal a lot whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert. The psychological tests can uncover many things like – if you are more of a team person or one who prefers to work alone, if you have anger issues, and other things. The tests can also reveal how honest a person is and your answers will reveal if you are a dishonest person or a trustworthy one.

The army psychological test should be answered honestly. There are no correct or wrong answers when it comes to psychological tests. Most examinees scratch their head after the exam because they are wondering if their answers were right.

The tests are basically designed to detect if a person is trying to misrepresent himself. The questions are usually related or similar so if you answer the questions honestly, there is no need to worry because your answers will not contradict one another.

When you are about to take the test, you have to ensure that you’re prepared. Make sure that you get sufficient sleep the night before the exam. Try to eat nutritious foods, including snacks. If you want, you can also warm up your mind by playing puzzle games life crossword puzzles.

The psychological tests are usually given at a specified time and you need to submit the papers whether you’re finished or unfinished. You don’t need to think much when answering the questions because it simply pertains to your personality or your true self. Don’t try to impress the examiner by giving false answers. Being honest is the key to get the best exam results. The psychological tests are pre-requisite when entering the army. You need to be prepared for it so that you can be at your best.

If you try to search the internet, you will surely find it hard to get information about the army psychological test. This is because the army authorities don’t want to reveal too much about the exam. It is their only way to determine or screen out the potential soldiers that will serve the nation best. Prepare yourself for the test and be honest at all times!

Everything is fake and glamorous. We can’t help ourselves but feeling fascinated. On your right and left hand sides, a series of stores follows your way into the Magic Kingdom. The same repeated idea sold thousands of times in different shapes, colors and frames.

They say we don’t find money on trees, but here, for sure, who owns this makes money as easily as stretching one’s arm out and just grabbing it. It rains money here, like from heavy generous clouds that pour down their juice. Money.

The saint benediction, the marker of success in the Calvinist religious ideology is the countable result of God’s blessing upon you: money. God must has been extremely pleased over here, for His people have done the right job according to their financial status.

The Jungian psychology couldn’t agree more. All over the place people of any age follow the script, they looked like having fun, albeit the 30 minutes average wait to pull in each attractions, the sun, the crowd, and the inevitable confusion of a packed area. Faithfully, diligently, people come, download their salaries on bad expensive food, pay three times for a bottle of water (but you can choose a soda, which is cheaper) and follow the stream. They get out exhausted and happy. The entire place is filled with invisible mirrors that send them back the image most appreciates by all of us: our dreams.

They are not fools, they are seekers of dreams. All of them, like Donald Duck in the presentation show, forgot their own existential projects. Jung calls it “individuation process”: becoming who you are, which is bigger than what you know about yourself now.

We are born to accomplish something, being the material feats a consequence of the internal achievements. We are born to evolve and to unfold. That’s where dreams come from. What we are is part of a bigger project we are meant to develop and realize. Human beings are never done and the only thing that makes them move on are dreams. The aspiration for a new house, job and car are not Dreams. They may be the tip of a huge iceberg invisible to materialistic eyes, and this statement is proven when you observe what short distance this kind of dreams allow you to go, they give you little gas and don’t really fulfill the deep hunger of the soul.

External accomplishments are valid and powerful when anchored in internal roots. To obtain this, you must know thyself. Without the personal inner journey you can hear of feel the symptoms of the pained soul but not decipher them. Like a distracted parent you risk giving a bottle of beer to your inner baby instead of the breast the new you need to grow strong.

Frozen in that psychological status people permit their souls to be fed by external stereotyped images. “Listen to your heart”, “look for your dream” Mickey Mouse repeats over and over again. He’s the representative of the entire Magic Kingdom, the place that functions as the collective reminder that “dreams come true”.

But which dreams? Whose dreams?

The claim is universal but the answer is meaningful only if personalized and unique. A dream is each one’s own soul expressing itself. The dream is the individuation process your entirety is here to accomplish. Instead, the collective reminder works as a hypnotize master, counterbalancing its good contribution by its evil side. Out of focus and confused, people stick to the outside signals because they carry the distant echo of what they need. While waiting for the Aladdin cave to open up, in the darkness of the unconsciousness mind, people fill in the empty and hungry soul with the food, diversion and noise.

The seekers of their dreams go back home inebriated by fairy dust and empty pockets. They are done with their obligations and return to “normality”.

Psychology is a main factor and influence that changes a recreational user smoking heroin once in a blue moon to an abusive nature and pattern where one must use the drug constantly. This article aims in highlighting those factors and pressures that lead an individual to become abusive in nature.

Warning

The use of any narcotics is different from individual to individual depending on the physiology of an individuals body as well as previous experiences. That is why it is not possible to really determine how it would be different on each individual and this article uses statistics and well known resources to pull its information from.

So first let us state what is Heroin? Heroin is one of the most powerful Pain Killers known to the world. It is a semi-synthetic opioid drug synthesized from morphine which is a derivative of the opium poppy. It is highly addictive due to the fact that Heroin Enters the Brain Rapidly and affects parts of the brain that controls Physical Dependence.

References No 1:

So what happens to change ones pattern of use? Because of the fact that it is the strongest pain killer it becomes a very attractive substance to use when in great pain. However, we are not limiting ourselves to physical pain, but also emotional pain. That’s right, Heroin kills both Physical and Emotional Pain and it is the Emotional Pain that ties in with the Psychological factors.

Most Heroin users start with recreational use of the drug such as Smoking it once in a blue moon, however that changes to an addictive pattern if not controlled.

References No. 2:

So How Does Psychology play a role?

When a user has tried Heroin in his life, it becomes almost impossible to forget, and when in a situation one faces Psychological Society pressures or also in Trauma events. Heroin is the perfect pain killer to levitate ones pain, unfortunately it ends up destroying an individual in the long term.

In England it has been proven that individuals that have lost their jobs and those that have come out of a Trauma Event go to using Heroin as it is the perfect Pain Killer for them.

References No 3:

So to conclude one can safely say that psychological pressures and factors can lead one to use Heroin as a way to “Remove The Emotional Pain” and if it was tried previously by a user then the possibility of them using it again is higher than those that have never tried it previously.

That we inherit genes from our parents is no longer deniable. That we copy many traits and behavioural patterns from our parents is equally indisputable, yet many of us are blind to our susceptibility to replicate these at an early age. More, we can be so good at this that we can present ourselves with a choice about how we live the rest of our lives. Either, we can break the patterns and live our own lives; or we can stick with them, and relive those of our parents.

Before we look at the impact of this, how does this manifest itself?

Watch an adopted child’s facial expressions and you could be forgiven for thinking it must be the actual child of the mother. Given that child can mimic even the way it blinks so closely to resemble the mother, that one can assume it must be an inherited trait. The way a parent and child can stand can be identical, as can the style of their walk.

But it can go deeper than that and we can copy behavioural styles of our parents as though they were personality traits inherited from our parents. This can seem to dictate and condition even how we communicate within the family and then, as we grow up, how we communicate and behave with those we meet outside the family.

If our parents always argued, there is every chance we will have adopted the same stance. If they never displayed anger and instead maybe sulked, we can have learned to do the same. If they never resolved any upsets or grievances in front of us or within earshot, then we could well have lacked the family “training” to resolve our own disputes with others as our lives have progressed.

If the father never talks to his wife or any member of the family about his business life or employment, their child may develop the same trait and never talk to them about experiences at school. A father’s reluctance to share the uncertainties and challenges of his job can be mirrored by his child’s reticence and secrecy. As a result the child may not reveal its difficulties in the classroom or bullying in the play ground.

A mother who is not enjoying the best of health, whether for local environmental reasons or from inherited genetic disorders, may never speak of them or share them. So often she will nurture a child who does the same.

What can be really surprising to those parents who seek expert help and family counselling over a child’s apparent unwillingness of inability to share issues at home, is to hear that they have created the problem!

So justified and so natural to themselves can be their own behaviour, they are blind to its impact on their own children. In so far as they are aware of their own particular reticence to share certain aspects of their lives, they often cannot find any justification in their child replicating it in a part of theirs. Nor can they see the connection!

By getting professional help, we can better discover the true extent of how blind we can be about ourselves. One can learn to identify the nature and impact of patterns one formed when young. Having done that, we can work on modifying them to start to live our lives as we would choose, behaviorally speaking. Or, of course, we can rest with what patterns we have and relive our parents lives.

The only thing we are no longer entitled to do is to claim convincingly that, patterned or not, this is the sum total of who we are. It is not the case. The essence of us remains the same, but can be lost or enhanced by the patterns we super-impose on ourselves. We can acquire these at any age. But so too these patterns can be changed at any age to our benefit.

A nightmare can frighten you very much and make you afraid of dreaming. However, dreams contain warnings and future predictions besides working like psychotherapy.

You should learn how to translate the meaning of your dreams and follow dream therapy, so that you may stop dreaming about scary situations. You’ll learn how to solve all your problems thanks to the information and guidance contained in your dreams. Thus, you won’t need to be alarmed by nightmares.

The scary situations in a nightmare are warnings meant to prevent tragic situations from happening in your life.

All dreams have a protective function. You need protection because you have inherited a wild and primitive conscience that didn’t evolve like your human conscience, and because even your human conscience is quite absurd. It is under-developed and one-sided, ignorant, and lacking morality and wisdom.

The biggest part of your brain belongs to your wild side, while your human side occupies only a tiny portion of it.

This means on the one hand, you are not as intelligent as you may imagine, and on the other hand, you can become far more intelligent if you acquire complete consciousness, developing all your psychological functions.

This can be done as you follow the unconscious guidance in your dreams.

It prepares you to face all dangers without being controlled by your wild side, so that you may avoid acquiring a mental illness.

By translating the meaning of your dreams you’ll discover another hidden danger that you have never suspected that worked against you; your own ego.

You believe that your ego protects your social image, but this impression is false. Your ego is in fact manipulated by your violent and immoral wild side. It can only lead you to failure and despair because it is selfish and unfair.

It makes you despise everyone else when you are trying to fulfil your desires. You care only about what you want, without paying attention to the pain you provoke on other people. Neither do you pay attention to the absurdity of your intentions.

At the same time, your ego makes you desire people and things that you cannot possess. Your ego will only mislead you, making you frustrated and angry in the end.

This is how your wild conscience will have the chance to invade the human side of your conscience and provoke a mental illness.

Each time you have a nightmare the unconscious mind is trying to protect you from all these dangers, and trying to make you care about your psychical content.

By following the unconscious psychotherapy you will:

- Transform your wild side into a positive component of your human side,

- Eliminate your absurd ego,

- Learn how to control your behavior,

- Learn how to avoid all the traps of our cruel world,

- Stop having nightmares,

- Become a balanced and wise human being.

Even though Carl Jung was Sigmund Freud’s student, he followed his own path, after disagreeing with his teacher.

While Freud’s basic analysis concentrated on the sexual field, Jung paid attention to many other characteristics of the psychical world that could not be justified by Freud’s theories.

He concentrated his attention on the meaning of dreams, this way discovering the hidden code for their interpretation.

Carl Jung’s psychology is based on dream analysis, exactly because Jung managed to understand the mysterious dream language, and verified that the dream messages contain objective information about the dreamer and his or her objective reality.

They even show to the dreamer what the future development of his or her life will be depending on various factors, because the unconscious mind that produces our dreams possesses extraordinary wisdom.

Therefore, Jung concluded that the unconscious mind is a superior counselor that we should listen to, and further researched the content of the human psyche through dream interpretation.

He discovered the existence of various images that appear in dreams and in the artistic and religious manifestations of people that belong to different civilizations, through all historical times, which are the archetypes.

The archetypes define the most important aspects of human life and the necessary psychical transformation that the human being has to pass through in order to develop completely his personality.

Jung explained the unconscious mind in two parts:

- The personal unconscious
- The collective unconscious

The content of the personal unconscious belongs to the person’s life, like fears and traumas they have acquired because of their deceptions and sad experiences.

The content of the collective unconscious belongs to the human race and characterizes everyone. This is why the archetypes have an already known specific meaning that can help us understand what is happening with a person who is feeling depressed or having mental disturbances, when they appear in their dreams or artistic creations.

The most important archetypes are:

The Anima or Animus – They represent the perfect match for a man or a woman.
The Shadow – It represents the dark side of the human personality that did not develop like our conscious mind.

The Persona – It represents the social mask one wears in order to give a positive impression to their environment or to hide their real intentions.

We can understand our mistakes and learn how to solve our problems by following the instructions given to us in dream messages by the collective unconscious through the archetypes, since they reflect our own psychical content.

They belong to the human race because they reveal general truths, common obstacles, the common human attitude to all challenges of life, and other aspects that are part of everyone’s psychical transformation.

If a certain archetype appears in someone’s dream this means that it is reflecting the existence of a common mental illness in their psyche or a common social problem in their own lives.

After continuing Carl Jung’s research and simplifying his method of dream interpretation I realized that his conception about the personal unconscious was misleading, since the archetypes give us precious information about the personal life of the dreamer, even though using known images that appear in everyone’s dreams. Therefore, we don’t need to separate the unconscious mind into personal and collective.

What has to be separated is the wild side of the human conscience from the wise unconscious mind. Jung could not see the distinction between them because he had stopped his research in a certain point, accepting ignorance from that point and on.

Therefore, the human psyche is composed by

- The human conscience
- The anti-conscience or wild conscience
- The wise unconscious mind that produces our dreams

However, we should always remember with gratitude that Carl Jung discovered the right code for a perfect dream translation, even if he could not understand completely the functionalism of the dreaming system with the knowledge he had.

Christina Sponias continued Carl Jung’s research into the human psyche, discovering the cure for all mental illnesses, and simplifying the scientific method of dream interpretation that teaches you how to exactly translate the meaning of your dreams, so that you can find health, wisdom and happiness.
