Jungian archetypes are universal, recurring symbols or themes found in the collective unconscious, as proposed by psychologist Carl Jung. They represent common human experiences and emotions, such as the shadow (our dark, unconscious side), the hero (symbols of courage and determination), and the anima/animus (representations of the feminine and masculine aspects in all individuals). These archetypes help us understand and connect with deeper aspects of ourselves and our experiences.
