Solange Bertolotto Schneider The Truth in the analytical process
Solange Bertolotto Schneider A Great Site in 2024
The nine years I lived in Europe, studying, traveling, learning to live with other cultures and religions, experiencing the wonder of belonging to the human race, there is no doubt: we are one.
The concept of the collective unconscious and the archetype conceived by Dr. Carl Gustav Jung were lived with body and soul, and today I can consider myself a citizen of the world.
After this fantastic trajectory that life has given me, I am back to the wild Pauliceia, with all its complexity, fascinations and challenges.
I’m back in town and at work. There were nine years of travel, culture and studies, which did not end, they just changed and will continue to change.
It is with great pride that I return to my roots, in the certainty that this has always been and always will be my true vocation.
To those who participated and enriched my journey, my thanks. I will be delighted to meet and exchange experiences with my dear colleagues and friends, now that physical distance is no longer an obstacle to the loving embrace, so Brazilian …

“Truth, secrets, and lies are an important part of human communication. The way we see the reality of facts is affected not only by culture but also by autonomous complexes of the psyche, shadow projections, and the crystallization of the persona. An individual’s typology, as well as his or her attitude (extrovert or introvert), also affects the perception of reality and its implications. The archetype of Truth is analyzed here as a symbol not only in Psychology, but also in History, Philosophy, Religion, Science, and Politics.
Truth is an important symbol in our daily lives. Ideally, the truth is desired but difficult to accept. Truth is about deep ethical values, and for this reason, Ethics is the traveling partner in this discussion.
Cassandra’s myth and the movie The Imitation Game (2014) are used as primary examples to debate: a) the role of Truth in relation to female-male, power-love, body-soul polarities; and b) obstacles that hinder recognition of the truth.
The role of the feminine, the masculine, and sexuality are an important part of this reflection, due to the complex relationship between Truth and power, and between women and men throughout human history – and the development of psychoanalysis and analytical psychology.
Wilhelm Reich’s concept of “character armor” is compared with C. G. Jung’s theory of complexes, since shadow, persona, and complexes are all in the body. In addition, dreams, neuroscience, and the Word Association Experiment are referred to as tools for understanding the importance of Truth and the obstacles to its recognition.
A relevant concept for this work is that of the psychoid archetype, considered an “intermediate” quality of consciousness, which finds itself “between” the personal and the collective unconscious – and thus a way of accessing a deeper knowledge of the self.
Insight and synchronicity are recognized as a result of the psyche’s ability to be in the psychoid archetype, which is present as the primary resource for recognizing the truth. Truth lies between the persona and the shadow. Learning to recognize and deal with it is essential to the individuation process.”
