“The individual who perceives oppressive emotional states in himself and is able to verbalize them in a style congruent with the semantic impact of archetypal-imagery shifts the balance of integrative power within himself from the unconscious to the ego.”
— Carl Gustav Jung
Simplified Meaning:
If someone feels strong emotions and can talk about them clearly using common patterns or images, they gain more control over their own mind.
