  • Semiotics of Synchronicity : An Evolution of Jung's Synchronicity Theory

説明

This paper is intended to re-examine C. G. Jung's idea of synchronicity and to explore a further possibility of his theory. First, examining Jung's view on parapsychology, we figure out his theoretical standpoints to understand the synchronistic phenomena. They can be classified into three aspects; acausality, the collective unconscious and the archetypes, and Unus Mundus. Through this re-examination it will be clear that synchronicity theory lacks the consideration of meaning which is grasped by each subject at the very moment of experience. About this question we will revise Jung's theory from semiotic point of view. Synchronistic experiences can be understood as a sign, an association of the signifier with the signified (Saussure). In our model, the signifier is a certain psychic state and the signified is an external event. We will conclude that synchronistic experiences are meaningful because (1) as a metaphor, external events correspond to the inner state, (2) as a metonymy, these experiences themselves indicate the direction of one's life.
