Carl Jung Explains Introverted Intuition

Welcome, wisdom seekers. In this video, we dive into Carl Jung's profound knowledge of the introverted intuitive type and his broader theory of psychological functions. Jung posits that introverted intuition "perceives all the background processes of consciousness with almost the same distinctness as extraverted sensation registers external objects." We'll decipher this claim, examining the rich inner worlds of such individuals.

Our journey traverses the landscape of the psyche, from the "subjective factor" of intuition to the "compensatory extraverted sensation function of an archaic character" lurking in the unconscious. We'll consider Jung's assertion that introverted intuitives can be "the mystical dreamer and seer on the one hand, the artist and the crank on the other."

Beyond this specific type, we'll explore Jung's comprehensive model of psychological types, including his concept that "besides the conscious main function there is also a relatively unconscious, auxiliary function." This interplay between conscious and unconscious shapes our perceptions, judgments, and very existence.

Join us as we reveal Jung's painting of the human mind, where "what happens there is so captivating and of such inexhaustible attraction."

Jung's work truly help me understand things that i knew were real, just didn't knew how to explain.

[TERI]

I'm an INFJ, also a psychologist. Anyway, I know things that are true about others, their motives, that I dare not say for fear of them simply being spooked by it, so I just keep it to myself. I've lived my life this way or my life has lived me this way. It's second nature. It has always worked for me. Without fail.

When reading and listening to to C.G Jung or Alan Watts I finally realized “well damn I’m not the only one with thoughts like this. It gave me grip on my steering wheel of life. This has allowed me to trust myself while skydiving, helped me with my endless writing AND now filming. Stoic Tea Time vlog out very soon film 🎥 🎞️. Love all of you out there. Keep your head up and don’t slip so far into the Darkness

You know as much as me that it gets harder and harder to climb out of. ❤❤❤

In my opinion, I believe kentaro Miura found himself discovering his legendary story berserk using his primary ni function. He is truly a genius who had left a legacy behind. Rest in peace ❤

Brilliantly factual. And others just don't get it. We live on another level but no less real. We see the patterns in that other world much clearer than the physical one. It would be a great thing except so few of us exist that we have no one to understand us. It's a very lonely place. The INFJ is only 2% of the population.

Its like having super powers that are envied & shunned once displayed.
Dare be brave.

As a kid I used to write rap songs and freestyle. Now I can't put rhymes together for nothing. I recently started writing poetry and I'm good at it. But the thing is my poetry doesn't rhyme also, but my poetry makes sense.I trying to understand what my brain is trying to show me.

When I was a kid I had a very rich imagination, used to make my own comic books and stuff. The older I get it feels that I start using only the logical part of my brain at a 100% and the one that controls imagination and emotions at 0%

A core dynamic of lived daoism(which is also called wu wei) is not to ask why..but what does that mean to me❤

[sonja]

May I just say, this is difficult to live with 😮

[abigailknight]

Thoughts on deja vu? Do intuitives experience more and why you think that is?

[PartTimeGamer]

This explain why I get many visions in my daily life.
Why I feels like the outcast.
Why I feels different from the others
And the problem was right, everytime I questioning what I see. It makes me insane.

I did a couple tests in different webs that offered so much info and background on the personality types that they felt solid and made by experts. But in one I scored INTP and in the other I scored INFJ. Both are quite different personality types, yet I feel like many things of their descriptions fit with me and others don't. Like I'm one way some times and other way other times. How do you come to understand this?

[DarkstarMystic]

I'll be completely honest I didn't totally understand the video,

Gotta do more research.
Most normal folks don't seem to like me, I must come off as a pretentious jerk, but it sucks. I'm not angry at people anymore.

The few people I've been close to in life I'm very affectionate towards

[iordeebeat]

Perhaps Jung talked much about introverts being himself from the Swiss (much) introvert culture? 🤔

[amnjain]

Is he talking about INxx types or the cognitive function Ni ?

[violetindigo]

I wish I could understand anything of this... 😔 (I have extroverted intuition)

[cellanimation]

Any chance somebody recognises some of the paintings? 😊

[JLW]

If one possesses such phenomena, is it in general terms, an advantage or just a fact?
