HORTEGAS, Monica Giraldo; SCHETINO, Maria Conceição  y  MELO, Walter. Cartography of the Psyche: Jung and his mysterious anagram. Junguiana [online]. 2022, vol.40, n.1, pp. 61-74. ISSN 2595-1297.

In 1916, Jung wrote Seven Sermons to the Dead and created the mandala Systema Munditotius which, taken together, are characterized as a gnostic creation myth. The Sermons end with an anagram that remained unanswered for over a hundred years. This article presents a hypothesis to decipher this enigma, looking for clues in the Jungian work itself, emphasizing the importance of fantasy for theoretical research. Reading carefully, the Sermons and other works from the same period, his late writings and getting information from his commentators, it was possible to bring up unusual answers to the challenge. Jung's mystery reaffirms his lifelong quest: the communication between ego and unconscious. From an investigation on the influence of gnosis, numbers and geographic coordinates in his work, it was possible to grasp symbolic answers, where the union of opposites of the psyche is represented. ■
