Abstract

Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) developed multiple paradigms across personal, social and cultural domains. This report uses some of Jung's work across a broad context - the basis for possible communications with and among extra-terrestrial intelligences (ETIs). Jung's domains, among many, include collective unconscious, archetypes, individuation, shadow, anima and animus, synchronicity, self, persona, complexes and psychological types. This paper hypothesizes the applicability of Jung's paradigms and domains to communicate with ETI.
