Abstract
The psychology that shall be articulated in this essay can from the outset be described as relatively pre-modern and relatively psychoanalytical. It is pre-modern because we will be focusing on the pre-modern psyche without arguing that it should be vanquished in favor of a modern psychological disposition. But this essay will also be psychoanalytical because we will be focusing on a hypothetical pre-modern personality and saying that such a person needs to adopt some thinking orientated psychoanalytical principles in order to adapt to the modern world and be healthy. The pre-modern psychology in this work relativizes the psychoanalysis and the psychoanalysis relativizes the pre-modern psychology. The author of this work studied jungian psychology. However, learning and life experience(s) then either compliment each other or they clash. Having immersed myself in jungian psychology to speed up the process of developing greater psychological awareness, much of Jung's views are maintained and much is vanquished.
