Will I go crazy if I read his book on synchronicity?

I've found there is disappointingly little synchronicity in my life. But when there is it's big and obvious.

>> No.9599260

I find mainstream opinion of synchronicity really annoying. Such as this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronicity#Criticisms
Clearly written by people who have no actual experience with synchronicity. It's plainly obvious that it's more than just coincidence if you've seen enough of them and if they have personal significance.

>> No.9599292

In my experience, synchronicity usually amounts to serendipity

anyone /Jung/ here?? I guess you could say i fell for the peterson meme and now want to read more about archetypes and christian mythos and whatnot from the actual source instead of youtube lectures of fragmented ideas.
What books should I start with? I have Man and His symbols, but have heard and am considering purchasing Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious. Is this the right next step?

You should start with the Greeks then quickly realize what a useless pseudo-intellectual this idiot is

>>9599502
Do it.

>> No.9599592

Synchronicity is simply a meaningful coincidence.
Coming from the bottom of your being, you feel that you are in the right place, at the right time, doing the right thing.
There is nothing spooky about it. It's a form of causality that is felt rather than intellectualized.

"No actual experience with syncronicity"
My problem is i can experience it everywhere. And i can experience it nowhere at the same time. Volatile shit tier theory.

>> No.9600222

Start with Man & His Symbols

>> No.9600264

>>9600162
Well I remember someone mentioning that those coincidences should be connected somehow to archetypes, not sure if that's what Jung wrote actually

>> No.9600274

>>9599123
Yes. Reminder that Jung was someone who believed in a literal God and in materialisation (shit appearing out of thin air).
His fanbase consists of gullible morons and he was the precursor for the intellectual new-age bullshit movement that spawned charlatan cunts like RAW and Tim Leary.

Ok here's an argument, there is no such thing as archtypes or the collective subconscious.
Good luck getting around that dipshit
