6 DANGEROUS Places you should AVOID at all Costs (Carl Jung WARNS)

6 DANGEROUS Places you should AVOID at all Costs (Carl Jung WARNS) In this deep dive into Jungian psychology, we explore six psychological territories that feel like safety but function as sophisticated prisons for the soul. Unlike Jung's warnings about dangerous people, these are the treacherous landscapes of your own psyche where growth stops, authenticity dies, and individuation becomes impossible. More importantly, Jung's most disturbing insight: we don't just visit these places—we unconsciously create them for others.
