XIMENEZ, Luciana. Scrapes and scraps are interesting to us: about love in times of survival. Junguiana [online]. 2022, vol.40, n.1, pp. 153-164. ISSN 2595-1297.

This essay proposes to reflect on the experience of love, starting from experiences in dark and hopeless times such as the one that devastated Brazil during the Covid-19 pandemic that started on December 2019. For this, it references authors of archetypal psychology, as well as philosophers and sociologists. It brings examples from clinical practice and literature, and is directed towards an analysis in which love is action and presupposes fragility, belonging, flexibility and otherness. In this sense, being invested in loving relationships, whether in friendship, motherhood, marriage or other manifestations of love, could enable the recognition of the place occupied by the self and the other, which would allow a more harmonious life of the individual with themselves, with the other and with the anima mundi. ■

Palabras clave : love; pandemic; belonging; narcissism; otherness.
