theory is that seeds of order seem to be embedded in
chaos, while seeds of chaos are apparently embedded in
order.  Systems that are stable in relation to their
environment can become unstable.  Systems that are
unstable can return to stability.  Another important
finding is that the behavior of a system in stability
and its behavior after becoming unstable are acausal. 
These findings can be transposed to Jungian psychology
by assuming the psyche to be a dynamic dissipative
system as defined in chaos theory.  The psyche
functions in our causal space-time continuum via the
conscious ego, but also functions in a psychic
continuum which is wholly unconscious to the ego.

psychological 'edge of chaos,' a psychic region of
complexity bridging the acausal gap between the
collective unconscious and the conscious ego.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/3FF669D3-448C-4F9D-B3AC-537AD33E4CF3/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
