People Only Love You for Two Reasons – Carl Jung | Nightfall Reflections

Welcome to Nightfall Reflections — a peaceful corner for curious souls. You are watching video People Only Love You for Two Reasons – Carl Jung | Nightfall Reflections. People don’t fall in love with who you truly are. According to Carl Jung, they fall in love with two things: what they’re missing inside themselves, and the unconscious image you awaken within them. This video reveals the psychology behind projection, anima and animus, why relationships feel like destiny at first, and why they often collapse when the illusion fades. When you understand these two hidden forces, you stop chasing validation, stop mistaking intensity for love, and start building relationships grounded in wholeness instead of unmet inner wounds. This is a deep, emotional journey into Jung’s most transformative insight about love, the soul, and why we’re drawn to certain people.
