This article intents to build upon ideas related to the process of psychic transmission, trying to state that incest is a symptom derived from the legacies of psychic heritage in the composition of the inter-subjective space of the family. The theory followed a path that started with the works of Freud about psychic transmissions and later, added to the contributions of contemporary authors who worked with this subject. From the reflections on the subject - considered since the beginnings of civilization and the creation of important taboos within the prime horde - it was possible to learn that psychic transmission is an element that exists in an incestuous family. Besides, it is interesting to consider that the family myth and the denied pact contribute to the frequency of incest in the family generations, helping in the maintaining of bonds within the family group

Keywords : Psychic transmission; Incest; Family myth; Denied pact.
