A symbolic reading of the mechanical soul of Decepticons and Autobots with a Jungian look at Cybertron. What does the eternal battle between Autobots and Decepticons reveal about our deepest psyche? What does the spark represent in archetypal terms? And why do millions of people across generations feel an emotional connection to these metallic, otherworldly beings? This book is an unexpected journey into the symbolic heart of Transformers, approached through the analytical psychology of Carl Gustav Jung. Here, the reader will explore how the characters of Cybertron embody universal archetypes-the hero, the shadow, the animus, the trickster-and how these tales of alien robots reflect the internal dramas of the human soul. Written in an entertaining yet well-grounded style, this work combines science, pop culture, and modern mythology, exploring the Transformers saga as a contemporary epic of the collective unconscious. What if Optimus Prime is a modern version of the Wise King archetype? And Megatron, the shadow we all fear but also need? A fascinating read for fans, psychologists, creatives, and anyone who wants to look beyond the visible and listen to the symbolic echo that resonates behind the metal, the war, and the spark. Get ready to see the Transformers as never before... within yourself.
