Unus mundus is a Latin term meaning “One World”. It is a notion of metaphysics referring to the idea of a unified transcendental reality, from which everything emerges and to which everything returns. It was popularized in the 20th century by Carl Gustav Jung. The term first appeared with Gerard Dorn, a student of Paracelsus in the 16th century.
The Jungian concepts of archetype and synchronicity are linked to unus mundus. Archetypes are in fact a phenomenon of manifestations of a source of our reality. Synchronicities are also a nod to a unified reality source from the material plane, dependent on the union of the observer and the phenomenon. Unus mundus is the unitary and unifying plane that underlies, produces and contains all dimensions of our experience.
Unus mundus is a physical-psychic reality, a universe beyond space and time, in which psyche and matter are inseparably united and interconnected. It is a world beyond all duality and all intellectual concepts. In unus mundus the pairs of opposites such as matter and psyche form 2 aspects of the same transcendental reality. Revealing itself both through external physical events and internal psychic landscapes, unus mundus is constantly renewed.
The divine source animating its various psychic and material manifestations, organizing the micro and macro scales. The universe becomes its continual revelation.
