The groovy shrink. Trained by Freud but split because Freud was condescending. Coined terms like the "Collective Unconscious" (archetypal symbolism found in dreams and visions shared by all cultures), and the "Shadow" (the repressed 'dark' side of our personalities). Invented at least 1 personality test still used today. Investigated things like Astrology, UFOs, Shamanism.

Ah, so this explains your handle. I'd always assumed it was a Korean name.
