Hohokam Indian Spiral, Phoenix, Arizona.Spiral in Italy.and the Alta Vista Spiral was very mundane. Apparently, ancientSpiral petroglyphs, drawings, and paintings aboundthroughout the world and in many disparate cultures. Spiralshave been found in Europe, all the Americas, and elsewhere.Although I was initially disappointed I still could notexplain the energy I had felt as I embarked upon my quest.Nor could I explain my compulsion to follow as the threadof lost civilizations pulled me forward. My dreams, my visions,and the familiarity I felt when I walked these sacredplaces was truly genuine!As I continued my quest I was reminded of author KurtVonnegut who said that he wanted to stay as close to theledge as he could without falling over. Out on the ledge yousee all kinds of things you can’t see from the center.I too wanted to peer over the edge!121
Spiral in Scotland.Spirals in Ireland.Carl Jung theorized that in addition to our immediateconsciousness there existed a layer of the unconscious thatwas inborn and not derived from personal experience. <strong>This</strong>deeper layer he called the “collective unconscious,” whichhe believed was a system of a collective, universal, and impersonalmakeup that was identical in all individuals. Heused the term “collective” because he believed that this partof the unconscious was not individual but universal; in contrastto the personal psyche, it has contents and modes ofbehavior that are more or less the same everywhere and inall individuals. Another theorist observed that all cells comefrom other cells and that as these cells evolved they conveyeda collective and instinctive memory. And that eachindividual both draws upon and contributes to the collectivememory of the species.122
