The Psychology of The Paranormal – Carl Jung

by



Since early childhood, Carl Jung experienced paranormal phenomena, that is, phenomena that are beyond the scope of scientific understanding. They were virtually commonplace in Jung’s family. Jung’s personal experiences with the paranormal would set him on a quest to find an explanation of these events with his theory of analytical psychology, as well as sparking his interest in parapsychology, the study of psychic or paranormal phenomena, especially regarding extrasensory perception or ESP (precognition, clairvoyance, telepathy, intuition, etc).

Jung attended séances which formed the basis of his doctoral dissertation published in 1902, entitled On the Psychology and Pathology of So-Called Occult Phenomena. Jung admits that his period of the séances with his medium cousin contained the origin of all his ideas. He had discovered some objective facts about the human psyche. From then on, Jung got his first glimpse of the fact that there was another world (the unconscious) which had a life of its own quite apart from the life of consciousness.

  5. I have a theory that animal spirits have an ability to possess people who sleep outside and cause an animalistic mental disorder where a person resembles an animal attempting to be a human being, provided the person has a low threshold for holding their mind together.

  12. The last quote of the video, the one that Eternalised pinned, reminds me of this quote

    ‭"Unless you people see signs and wonders,” Jesus told him, “you will never believe.”
    John 4:48

  20. Its my birthday today and ive spent this past year reading Carl Jung, learning about the occult, experiencing synchronicities and trying to develop a deeper understand of the unseen world/the connection between our inner and outer worlds, and the fact that this video came out today feels like a wonderful birthday gift from the universe. Thank you eternalized. Thank you for getting "it" and helping me understand it too.
