Aldous Huxley's The Doors of Perception describes the subconscious as a landscape populated by repressions, conflicts, and traumatic memories. Further inward lies a region of Jungian archetypes and mythological raw materials, and beyond that, reached through mescaline, a realm he calls the Antipodes of the mind. The text presents a metaphorical geography of the psyche, mapping levels of consciousness from personal unconscious to collective archetypes and transcendent experience.
