Famous Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung believed that there are three basic parts of the human psyche. He called these three parts the ego and the personal and the collective unconscious. There are twelve basic archetypes Jung introduced, and some are really different types of Ego, Soul and Self. All combinations are possible and different combinations form character.
According to this Jung's idea, everything is based on these archetypes, including science, religion and philosophy. These models of collective unconscious are inherited, and shape the way a person experience the world consciously. They are basically elementary structures, impossible to apprehend and common to all humanity. Their existence cannot be scientifically proven, but their actions are visible.
The Ego contains four basic types, and some have numerous other names. The Innocent may be called naive, or sometimes a dreamer. This is optimistic type, positive, happy and wants to be free. The Orphan, for example, can sometimes be described as a solid citizen, or a good old boy. He is a good guy, always wanting to be surrounded by people and connected with them, realistic, positive and emphatic.
The Hero might be very arrogant and act as crusader, soldier or rescuer. Often winner, this personality is strong and dependable, really courageous, has the desire to rescue people from dangerous situations. The caregiver lives to help others. Different types belong to this category, for example parent, supporter, helper or even the saint. He needs to please other people and enjoys doing it.
Soul types include the Explorer, Rebel, Lover and Creator. The Explorer is a true wanderer, and he lives to experience new, unknown and exciting things. He is always in a search for something new. Individualistic and capable. The Rebel is always ready to start a revolution. He doesn't believe in rules and enjoys breaking them. Wild and out of control, he likes shocking other people and can easily cross to a dark side.

Neglects himself in his constant desire for pleasing others. The Creator is a thinker, a dreamer and a visionary. He is an artist, a perfectionist and desires to spend his life creating new and exciting works. His primary goal is the realization of his own vision.
