The
self for Carl Jung is an archetypes which represents the whole psyche of an
individual. It is the constant and continuous phenomena of "me". For
Jung the self is the product of individuation and it therefore bears to essence
of being something distinguished from the world. In psychoanalytic terms the
self encompasses the conscious and unconscious as well as the ego, super ego and id in their totality.
