Summary/Abstract: I emphasize the need to interpret the world view expressed in the Greek mythology. I think that C. G. Jung’s theory of archetypes can by used to interpret it. I show some similarities between Greek gods and archetypes of Jung. There is also a similarity between the goal of human development assumed in the mythological wisdom and the goal of the psychological process of individuation in the analytical psychology. These similarities let us understand some aspects of Greek myths although it must be admitted this understanding is not exhaustive or the only one possible.
