Jung describes that symbols are produced at times expressed in geometric forms, humans, semi-humans, gods and goddesses, animals and plants. Their symbolic content rises from the unconscious to consciousness by the unconscious through archetypes. Archetypal images have a primordial quality, which are through images and experiences. approach to aesthetics and how symbols are unconsciously reflected in the form of dreams, fantasies and also through artistic activity. Jung argues about the distinction between signs and symbols which also show the archetypal response from the unconscious. While signs always have fixed meanings, symbols have indefinite expressions with many meanings, pointing to things which are not easily defined and therefore not fully known. - C. G. Jung by Louis Lagana
