The Mechanics of Archetypal Experiences of the Collective Consciousness

Astrological Archetypal and Myths

Jung According to Carl Jung, the Greek gods and all the myths that surround them are archetypal symbols that pertain to our collective unconscious. In other words, they are the deep motivational unveiled factors that are shared by all humankind.

Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.
Who looks outside dreams; who looks inside, awakes. ~Carl Gustav

Since the planets are named after these archetypal godly forces, they carry in themselves the influence of symbolism that such archetypes have. According to Jung, these symbolic realities can interact with the events of our lives through processes called synchronicity and serendipity, which justifies as the physical reason for the magical tools of Astrology.

Uranus

Uranus represented higher vibrational aspects of Heaven and was the progenitor of the incestuous human species. Among his children, we find the Titans. It is assumed that the myth of Uranus is pre-Greek, probably Hittite. Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius.

Neptune

Neptune was originally an Italic god of fresh waters and later was associated with Poseidon, known as the god of the seas. With the trident, Neptune ruled over the ocean water. Neptune was the god of sailors and protector of all who traveled by sea, and therefore ruler of Pisces. Because it reigns over the deep waters, it also shared aspects related to unconscious minds, ecstasy, and escapism

Pluto

Pluto is one of the many names of Hades, god of the underworld, and son of Kronos. Originally destitute of qualities of mercy and compassion, the God of the dead adorns himself with spruces, cypresses, and narcissus flowers, but does not get moved before worship or sacrifices. He holds the key to the underworld where he rules and is, therefore, the ruler of Scorpio.

Hades was worshiped as one who bestows wealth with his power.
