QotD: Unconscious situations manifest as External

 The psychological rule says that when an inner situation is not made conscious, it happens outside, as fate. That is to say, when the individual remains undivided and does not become conscious of his inner opposite, the world must perforce act out the conflict and be torn into opposing halves.

—C. G. Jung. Collected Works Vol 9 part 2, paragraph 126.
