If one world can possess an anima, it then follows, that a plurality of worlds may also possess a soul appropriate to their collective form. And that in addition, all objects/structures and visible aspects of that universe are part of that universal soul
Part three of Personal Multiplicity Theory: psychological multiplicity might be another instance of a much more general organisational principle: complexity produced through differentiation, relationship and selective integration.

James Hillman’s archetypal psychology presents the psyche as fundamentally plural, or or of multiple minds. Human beings do not possess only one psychological voice, value system or centre of intelligence.
James Hillman’s archetypal psychology and Richard Schwartz’s Internal Family Systems therapy appear, at first sight, to describe remarkably similar psychological worlds.

James Hillman was an American psychologist, Jungian analyst, writer, teacher and cultural critic whose work challenged many of the assumptions underlying twentieth-century psychology. He is principally associated with archetypal psychology, a post-Jungian approach that places imagination, metaphor, mythology and what Hillman called “soul” at the centre of psychological inquiry.
