That portion of the psyche which
is outside conscious
awareness. The unconscious expresses itself in dreams, fantasies, obsessive
preoccupations, slips of the tongue and accidents of all kinds. Jung distinguishes two
layers of the unconscious: the personal unconscious derived from one's
own experience, and the collective
unconscious containing the universal patterns and images called archetypes.*
