“Eros without the Logos inside never understands, there is nothing but blind relatedness. Such people can be related to God knows what - like certain woman who are dissolved completely in little happy families - cousins, relations - and there is nothing in the whole damned thing, it is all perfectly empty.” C.G. Jung

Who could have thought that breakfast eggs could be of such psychological significance? This romantic comedy allows a peak into the inner workings of what Jung called the relationship function: Eros

“Nobody will ever become conscious if he does not hit his head on something.” - C.G. Jung

Consciousness act as the center point for Jung’s model of the psyche, as something so important that everything else that exists needs to be put into reference to it: The unconscious, the things that are not in consciousness. What it is, how it works and what’s its purpose is will all be part of this event.

“This is the stuff that drives people crazy, because they can’t catch themselves anymore; they can no longer control themselves when they have that animal psychology. It means they are driven by instinct. They see a thing and leap for it. That is the condition of schizophrenia, for all those things appear also in cases of insanity; they are dynamite that can easily explode in the human mind.” - C.G. Jung

The 2000 movie is an interesting case study of a slow descent into madness, but what would Jung say about it?

“Ladies and gentleman, considering that your seat, this room, this lightening, our entire culture are nothing other than products of human fantasy, then you cannot overlook this. There is nothing man-made known to you that is not fantasy. Fantasy is the alpha and the omega of psychic life. Fantasy is the greatest danger of all. Do you believe that a landslide or an earthquake is as dangerous as human fantasy? Well, you haven’t the faintest idea! Fantasy is catastrophe.” - C.G. Jung

Jung saw Fantasy as a fundamental phenomenon of the psyche. As something that can guide us, but also distract us. How we engage or ignore fantasies determines our development and our journey.

„Real is, what has an effect“ - C.G. Jung

Jung‘s approach to therapy followed a basic principle: To meet the patient where they are. Reality is something incredibly subjective that can shape and transform just as we do.

„Although we human beings have our own personal life, we are yet in large measure the representatives, the victims and promoters of a collective spirit whose years are counted in centuries. We can well think all our lives long that we are following our own noses, and may never discover that we are, for the most part, supernumeraries on the stage of the world theater.“ - C.G. Jung

There is something deep in the psyche of humans, something that shapes and forms cultures and ages. Jung investigated the unconscious his whole life to hit something that is the foundation of centuries and millennia of human progress. And it was all visible in the sky long before anyone could see the connection.
