"..Death means the total extinction of consciousness and the complete stag- nation of psychic life, so far as this is capable of consciousness. So catastro- phic a consummation, which has been the object of annual lamentations in so many places (e.g., the laments for Linus, Tammuz, and Adonis), must surely cor- respond to an important archetype, since even today we have our Good Friday. An archetype always stands for some typical event. As we have seen, there is in the coniunctio a union of two figures, one representing the daytime principle, i.e., lucid consciousness, the other a nocturnal light, the unconscious. (C.G. Jung, CW 16, par. 469)
