The Collective unconscious is a concept proposed by psychiatrist Carl Jung to describe a form of the unconscious mind that is common to all human beings and originates from the inherited structure of the brain. The Collective unconscious contains Archetypes, which are universal symbols and patterns of thinking that influence our perceptions, emotions, and behaviours. Jung believed that the Collective unconscious is not shaped by personal experience, but by the ancestral experience of humanity.
