According to Jung, archetypes are symbols that exist in our psyche. There are
those that belong to the collective unconscious and those that belong to the
personal one. Those that belong to the collective unconscious have no time or
space limit. Therefore the mother goddesses, the Venus of Willendorf, the Venus
of Dordogne, the dreamer of Malta with all their associations, still exist in our
psyches. However, they have been buried there for too long along with a respect
for the earth. It is no coincidence that in all European languages the earth is
feminine. It is absolutely imperative today that these archetypes are retrieved from
the darkness.
One way to get to the images of the unconscious is to follow their projections onto
real persons and situations. And this is the path I took.
