COLLECTIVE UNCONSCIOUS FREE

He only observed this in the boulders close to his birth home, but you can observe this in many parts of Iceland. In his book “The Stone Speak” he describes an ancient language used by the stones. Thorbergur Thordarson is most famous for believing that the Stones could speak. I feel that this is an ancestral memory and I would be interested to know if anyone else connects to this. I also have a recurring dream where I am in a huge city made of huge blocks of stone, but our relationship to the stone is different. I have often have prophetic dreams of people I haven’t met (yet). How is that for collective unconsciousness.

Shortly after this dream, I was reading a new translation of one of his books where he was describing the dreams in which he was dead. I realised that I was dead and that I had been stood in my bedroom for 10 – 15 years after my death. The items on the furniture were moving and changing and sometimes the furniture would change and become new. I looked at the furniture in the room and it began to change in front of my eyes. In my dream, I was standing in my bedroom and started to loose my teeth. I once has a dream which I believe was the dream of the late Icelandic writer “ Thorbergur Thordarson” when I was sleeping at his birth place (Hali, South Iceland). But actually we are on the same piece of rock. It is the surface that gives the illusion that the distant land is separate from us. Those who are oblivious to it are like sheep, useful, but with no original thought, whereas those who felt the collective unconscious had a manifesto relationship with others – able to create and lead. Jung’s psychoanalytic treatment was to study the patient’s relationship to the collective unconscious. Or the strange connection that exists between twins. Consider those coincidences like when you are thinking of a loved one when they call. Jung felt that the mythical connections in dreams were evidence for a collective unconsciousness. He believed that we are like islands and at the surface we appear individual, but below the surface we are all part of the same rock. He achieved recognition in his own right in the fields of Dream analysis and his work on the collective unconscious. IslandsĬarl Jung was a kind of apprentice to Freud in the field of “Psychoanalysis”. It is this “Water-Sunlight-Earth” trilogy which is the basis for life. What makes things grow? “Water” and “Sunlight”, and “Earth” (the stuff of landscapes). It is the same the world over except it has been shaped beyond recognition in most places other than these volcanic zones in the same way that the landscape has eroded and taken on human disguises. They are feeding from the volcanic rocks and the addition of sunlight and water creates the source of nutrition for us all. There is not an inch of Icelandic rock that is not covered with some form of moss or lichen.

When you live in Iceland as I do, naked and free in the wilderness, you learn that all life as far as we understand comes from volcanoes, light and water. Further to this, I believe that observing consciousness at this level changes our relationship to the thread of life.

I believe there is a consciousness in the volcano, in Planet Earth. I have felt a conscious connection in animals, bugs, plants and rocks. Some believe we can connect to The Collective Unconscious when we are dreaming or through the arts. The Collective Unconscious kind of drives the species forward in a massive, silent group-think. of the primitive they include also the general concepts of right, the state, religion, science, etc., current among civilized men.The Collective Unconscious is a concept in psychoanalysis that claims there is a level of consciousness in the human species that operates below the level of individual consciousness. Such contents are the ‘mystical collective ideas’. either to a society, a people, or to mankind in general. I term these contents the collective unconscious” (1928).Jung had this to say about the contents of the collective unconscious: “All those psychic contents I term collective which are peculiar not to one individual, but to many at the same time, i.e. These are the mythological associations-those motives and images which can spring anew in every age and clime, without historical tradition or migration. But in addition to these personal unconscious contents, there exist other contents which do not originate in personal acquisitions but in the inherited possibility of psychic functioning in general, viz., in the inherited brain- structure. In his own language, the personal unconscious “embraces all the acquisitions of the personal existence-hence the forgotten, the repressed, the subliminal, perceived, thought, and felt. It is also called the racial unconscious.In the theory of Carl Jung there are two divisions of the unconscious, the personal and the collective. A Jungian term denoting the portion of the unconscious which is common to all mankind.
