Jung and his Understanding of Myth and Symbols show a collective unconscious, a collective knowledge, even though they have not met each other and share forms of the mandala, totems.

Sheldrake calls it Morphic Resonance … [Read more...] about Poetics and Risk Part XI – Poetics and the Collective Unconscious

Situational Awareness as Consciousness of the Unconscious

Out of your (Unconscious) Mind

The Mystery of The Unconscious for Safety
