ABSTRACT
The myth that grew up around Freud as the isolated and courageous hero legitimized his ownership. In 1916, when Jung emerged from his period of disorientation and confusion, the organization he founded to support and advance his work was a Psychological Club. When formal professional training in analytical psychology began, following World War II, it emerged with Jung's reluctant agreement. Aging and ill, he was persuaded to give his consent. Symbols and Dreams is the topic Jung pursued during the period of his growing alienation from Freud in the book that has since become known as Symbols of Transformation. Jung's notion of lifelong individuation, together with his notions of typologies of the self, provided a framework for his beginning speculations on adult development. Synchronicity is in Jung's terms a connecting principle that is neither causal nor merely chance. The notion of unconscious communication occupies a somewhat analogous position in classical theory.
