In this 1985 article, the author examines Jungian identity, suggesting that it is going through a “mid-life crisis”. The three currents of Jungianism, the classical school, the developmental school, and the archetypal school, have failed to reach a consensus. Freud’s influence has been repressed. The Solutio and Coagulatio phases are necessary to attain a new synthesis. A process involving assimilation and accommodation is at work, but the transformation has not yet occurred, and the question of our disappearance has arisen.
