ABSTRACT
IN order to define the scope of my paper, I want to say at the beginning that I have tried to deal with my subject only from the feminine aspect. My material is, with one exception, taken from one particular case. With its help I shall try to illustrate the unfolding of the archetypal pattern of the coniunctio as starting from and based on the archetype of incest. I shall further try to show how the individual situation actualizes this archetypal pattern, in a negative way as frustrating it or in a positive way as constellating it. In all this it has to be kept in mind that the paper was originally given as a twenty-minutes lecture, and that I have kept it here to its original content. It should thus be regarded as a sketch of a problem capable of considerable enlargement.
