- More of the good Carl Jung stuff -fairenough ................................ How an Archetype Expresses Itself The term 'archetype' is often misunderstood as meaning a certain definite mythological image or motif...on the contrary, [it is] an inherited tendency of the human mind to form representations of mythological motifs--representations that vary a great deal without losing their basic pattern...This inherited tendency is instinctive, like the specific impulse of nest-building, migration, etc. in birds. One finds the representations collectives practically everywhere, characterized by the same or similar motifs. They cannot be assigned to any particular time or region or race. They are without known origin, and they can reproduce themselves even where transmission through migration must be ruled out (CW 18:523). ...besides [the intellect] there is a thinking in primordial images--in symbols which are older than historic man, which are inborn in him from the earliest times, and, eternally living, outlasting all generations, still make up the groundwork of the human psyche (CW8:794). As the products of imagination are always in essence visual, their forms must, from the outset, have the character of images and moreover of typical images, which is why...I call them 'archetypes' (CW 11:845). ...[Tribal] lore is concerned with archetypes that have been modified in a special way. Another well-known expression of the archetypes is myth and fairytale (CW 9 (1):5,6). The archetype is essentially an unconscious content that is altered by becoming conscious and by being perceived, and it takes its color from the individual consciousness in which it happens to appear (CW 9(1):6).

- ... the content of the collective unconscious is made up essentially of archetypes ... Carl Jung Drawing upon Carl Jung's work on the archetype and the collective unconscious, the Archive for Research in Archetypal Symbolism (ARAS) is a pictorial and written archive of mythological, ritualistic, and symbolic images from all over the world and from all epochs of human history. The collection probes the universality of archetypal themes and provides a testament to the deep and abiding connections that unite the disparate factions of the human family.
