'The reality and power of the unconscious is central to Jungian psychology as well as to several other paradigms in art, science and philosophy. And it is our complexes that act as dynamic intermediaries in the lifelong dialogue with the unconscious, determining how archetypes and instincts communicate with and enlarge ego-consciousness. Similarly, the ego can only find a menaingful relationship with the unconscious through an ongoing exploration of the complexes. In practical terms, that means understanding the connection between the archetypal forces that inform our collective human nature and the personal historical experiences that shape our individual perception of those energies.'
