Love the last quote.
I wish people were more aware of Jung so they could realize what he says there is the real truth regarding fate

I also don't know if it's a real thing or not since the mere description of fate is very vague and open to interpretation.
But I definitely like Jung's definition especially since the archetypes and the collective unconsciousness complement it very well. Regarding his mysticism, he seemed to mix it at times with science and religion all into one. Especially when he talked about the union of the ego with the unconscious.
You're not alone with struggling with the inferior function, I especially start to hate anything related to Si after I realize that's the cause of my stress aka being on the grip. Since I don't have Si developed I can't really say anything, but my guess is that even when it's conscious there is still a certain small part of the mind that rejects, or distances (?) from it, even though one has learned to be agreeable/welcoming regarding the inferior function. Kinda like that person that you don't really like that much but you still hang out and have them around because over time you've learned to accept they might bring something valuable to the table. Does that make sense? lol.

@hackphobia - the video you posted can't be seen. I forgot to tell you ! Try to edit and post it again.

@celeste - Yes, I will give you another quote by him that I read recently :

Life does not come from events, but from us. Everything that happens outside has already been.

And :

I would not have been able to see what was to come if I could not have seen it in myself.

And I think he was talking about the First World War, that he foresaw in a vision.
In my opinion, fate is a predetermined course of life. Or the predetermined future of humanity. That you can foresee, because it already exists from the beginning as a code (like the DNA) or as a seed (by which you can tell what tree will grow from it) or as a pattern that keeps repeating itself over and over again.
This is why I mentioned the Fates : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moirai
They spin, measure and cut the threads of our lives. And if Jung was right about forces like The Fates - I don't know if he specifically wrote about them but he mentioned some themes that I see as connected to them - they are inside us and not an external force. So, if you reach their place under all layers that are above them, you can see them spinning your life. You can see the threads.
I already imagine a whole scene involving the Fates, but by describing it I think I might diverge from the topic and I also think I must try to visualize them to see the ending of the scene anyway.

@animal - do you have some inner demons that look like the Fates? Or did you have them at some point? I just realized they exist. I mean, I knew something like them existed, but pictured it differently. Hey, maybe they are not demons for you. They don't need to be demons. Generally the Fates are neutral, I guess.

@rondo - I have to tell you your poem reminds me of this song :
 

 
It also reminds me of Si. I see you have developed Si. So, you also write poems, not only short stories ! Would you like to share more of them? I am really curious about how alphas see things, since you have completely different functions than I do.
I read a part of Dune but sadly I did it when I was too young to understand everything clearly and I can't remember everything you mentioned.
SPOILERS !
The first book impressed me so much that I...harmed myself and still hold the mark. :))  You know, Bene Gesserit had to make sure Paul was The Chosen One and to be able to confirm it they had a test in which he had to put his hand in a box where he would feel great pain...as if his hand burned to ashes,  but without his hand actually burning. And I was curious if I was The Chosen One too. :)) So, I lighted a match and decided to hold it on my palm until it burned out. Which I did. I never thought it would leave a mark but it actually did, too bad the light isn't very good here and I can't make a good picture to show you. I have no idea what had gotten into me. Now I realize it was an Fe scenario, so, really, no idea why I did it. I just thought to share this because the burn created a white dot on the lines in my palm. So, was this a way of changing my destiny? 🙂
From God Emperor of Dune I can only remember Leto's transformation (or was it in the previous book?) and some of his interactions with Hwi. I loved Hwi and rooted for them as a couple. I was devastated when I read the bridge scene.
I think combining classical themes like Fate with science fiction leads to peculiar scenarios. Paul could foresee the future but there are other issues that were connected to predetermination in a more naturalistic way. I remember Hwi was genetically engineered and then educated specifically to make Leto fall for her and abandon his path. And he foresaw that but could still not help falling in love with her.
There is also at least one Duncan Idaho in every book, which is sort of a SF depiction of recurrence, I guess. I can't remember how they produced the Duncans, let's see... They were similar to clones but could remember the memories of the original Duncan Idaho.
Another thing I found very interesting was the passing of memories between the Bene Gesserit Reverend Mothers. When I read about it, I felt there was more to it but I couldn't quite grasp what. Much later I realized there must be a connection between this and the collective unconscious. I just looked it up and indeed The Other Memory was inspired by the collective unconscious.
Of course it was much more, though, (or was it? we still don't have The Water of Life :p ) ! The Reverend Mothers had all memories and experience of all women in their lineage AND could take all memories of other Reverend Mothers. This actually makes the hard discipline in their order logical. I think someone who lacked that level of discipline would just quit being involved in the present and stay forever in contemplation, remembering everything that happened to all her female ancestors, to all the Mothers and to the mothers of mothers of Mothers from the beginning of time ! I would certainly do that.
And Paul had all memories of all his ancestors, men and women, being the Chosen One, that Bene Gesserit had been expecting (and trying to genetically engineer) for such a long time. I'm not sure if this was somehow connected to his ability to foresee the future...? Maybe seeing far back in the past is connected to seeing far ahead in the future.
Regarding Leto's single perspective - I can't remember much about his political views and will have to read it again to be able to tell if he was a tyrant or a savior. Or both. But he was an abomination himself, having the Other Memory active and he must have been able to access some type of understanding no one else could have, as he was no longer human. It was his single perspective but this perspective was widened by him having a committee of ancestors advising him and probably the capacity to think with an animal mind. A sacred animal mind ! This is very dark actually. What makes a good or a bad ruler? What does it take to become one? Does it imply losing humanity and does the regaining of humanity imply losing control over people? Is leadership itself monstrous and how much shadow must be integrated to be able to decide over so many destinies?
I am so happy you reminded me of the books ! I am going home for Easter and they are still there, so I will start reading them again.
