This year heralds the centenary of the landmark publication of Psychological Types, a text that is arguably the most recognizable of all Jung’s works. The groundbreaking theory he expounded in that book has led to a wide spectrum of reactions, ranging from scorn to enthusiastic acceptance. This paper examines the influence of popular psychological assessments as well as the opinions of Jungians whose attitudes toward typology are many and varied. The author proposes a means of viewing typology that is complementary to the Jungian notions of complex and archetype, citing a real-life example that utilizes all three to analyze a presenting problem. A path forward is suggested that revitalizes psychological type theory by demonstrating its relevance to the study and practice of depth psychology.
