Basic Twelve Archetypes Jung Introduced

By Young Lindsay


Famous Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung believed that there are three basic parts of the human psyche. He called these three parts the ego and the personal and the collective unconscious. There are twelve basic archetypes Jung introduced, and some are really different types of Ego, Soul and Self. All combinations are possible and different combinations form character.

Jung's idea was that all human history and all the science and religion was designed according to these archetypes, because they really determine the way someone experience the world and different life situations consciously, although these archetypes are unconscious. So, all that exists is shaped depending on these basic models, and hey are always recognizable by their characteristics.

The Ego contains four basic types, and some have numerous other names. The Innocent may be called naive, or sometimes a dreamer. This is optimistic type, positive, happy and wants to be free. The Orphan, for example, can sometimes be described as a solid citizen, or a good old boy. He is a good guy, always wanting to be surrounded by people and connected with them, realistic, positive and emphatic.

The Hero is another Ego type. This one is often arrogant, but courageous, strong and mostly the team player. It is often called the crusader, soldier, winner and rescuer. The Caregiver loves all other people and desires to help and please them. Often called the saint, and sometimes parent, helper or supporter. His greatest desire is to do something for others. Finds his reason of existence in helping others.

Soul types include the Explorer, Rebel, Lover and Creator. The Explorer is a true wanderer, and he lives to experience new, unknown and exciting things. He is always in a search for something new. Individualistic and capable. The Rebel is always ready to start a revolution. He doesn't believe in rules and enjoys breaking them. Wild and out of control, he likes shocking other people and can easily cross to a dark side.

The Lover dedicates his life to love. He wants to love and to be loved, to please others and to spend time surrounded by people he loves. Hates being alone. Neglects himself in his constant desire for pleasing others. The Creator is a thinker, a dreamer and a visionary. He is an artist, a perfectionist and desires to spend his life creating new and exciting works. His primary goal is the realization of his own vision.

There are four basic Self types. The Jester has a simple motto, you only live once. That's why he lives in a moment, enjoying every single minute of his life. Sometimes they call him Joker or comedian. The Sage desires to find the truth, through exploring and analyzing the world. This one is a thinker, planner and philosopher, usually really intelligent.

The Magician or the Healer, the shaman or the Medicine Man, has his own opinion and his own vision of life. He lives by his own rules. Interested in all mysteries of the Universe. The Ruler controls, leads and gives orders. He doesn't know how to delegate, but is a born leader. Often called administrator or aristocrat.
