Jung’s analytical psychology divide the inner world into three layers of consciousness, individual unconscious and collective unconscious, they are mutually staggered, but each has its own merits. Consciousness as the surface of psychological world, is easy to be perceived by individuals, the individual and collective unconscious as deep psychological world, is unable or difficult to detect, the unconscious will enter into the consciousness in certain conditions. The Analytical psychology attempts to analyze the Chinese stream-of-consciousness novels in1980s from consciousness, individual unconsciousness, collective unconsciousness, and search human personality and the general character of history.Unified thinking mode gradually disintegrate in1980s, it is a period of transition and full of contradiction, people are involved in the conflict between tradition and modernity, east and west, those contradictions present people’s mental world too. Chinese stream-of-consciousness novels in1980s pay attention to the little guy rather than the big man, the complexity and naturalness of man rather than the complication and sociality, explore the vast middle field between good and bad, the mode of thinking change from binary to diversified, breaking good or bad, right or wrong thinking in the consciousness. The eternal topic of human beings that sexual problems also face new challenges in new historical conditions, think that women are inferior to men and the equality of the sexes, sexual repression and sexual liberation conflict in the individual consciousness. On the one hand, the male fear superwoman and the female is accustomed to the humble position, on the other hand, people whose thought liberation begin to fight with the traditional think that women are inferior to men, and pursuit gender equality. People’s attitude to sex is contrary at the same time, somebody feel guilt, who is in the deep of the tangle, their soul is wrung with agony, and somebody is magnanimous, they have a correct understanding of the sex and their inner world is full of sunshine. New things replace old things needs time, this is a process of development.1980s is not independent of human history and exist alone, it has characteristics of the time, also has the commonness of the five thousand years of Chinese history. The train, the house and the sea often appears in the collective unconscious. The train symbolize the dynamic form of life, busy and turbulence life with the cycle of unbalanced to balanced, which is a process of experiencing depression and harvest growth. Houses is the symbol of one’s status since ancient, houses change from small to big, and simple to luxury because of human’s pursuit of money and status, we could judge the owner’s class from the grade of the house, for example, the intellectuals in1960s or1970s, whose housing conditions depend on their status, and taste the bitters of life. The sea is a place where life grow, the ocean, with its broad mind containing people’s proud and frustrated, facing the sea, combined with nature, forgetting earthly fame and fortune, arouse people’s innocence and original dream, human beings, is a spiritual animals after all, who needs dream as support to fly a higher place. Life takes off in the dream, grow in motion, sublimate in the static state.1980s is an aesthetic and enlightenment coexist era, is also a gradual recovery time in human nature.
