We had our monthly PhD group supervision today and as we were doing the ‘checking out’ round amongst the students in my group, we relaised that we all find ourselves drawing insights from Jungian writings, especially those related to archetypes. I think this is because all of us in the group explore some kind of human experience phenomenon in a qualitative, in-depth way and this somehow connects us to symbolisms and concepts inherent in what Jung called ‘the collective unconscious’, hence and our interest in that field. My fellow student emailed to me those 2 web-links about archetypes that i will look at soon, togteher with some Jungian books from the library:
