Jung experiences of katabasis, or in other words the experiences of descending to the underworld, or world of the dead, followed by the return to the world of the living, the anabasis. In psychological terms, these experiences mean confronting the unconscious and the subsequent expansion of consciousness. To revisit C.G. Jung's experiences of katabasis, it was rescued historically (1) in classical antiquity through greek mythology, (2) in the medieval and modern period, through the works of Dante Alighieri, Emmanuel Swedenborg and William Blake, and (3) finally in Jung's own life with an emphasis on the constitution of The Red Book. The katabasis experiences were of vital importance to Jung and culminated in the genesis of analytical psychology.

O uso do termo espiritualidade não era co- mum nas origens dessa área de pesquisas, interessada também nas experiên- cias anômalas e religiosas. Diversas experiências desse tipo e questionamentos sobre elas permearam a vida e impactaram diretamente a obra de C. G. Jung. Assim, por meio de uma revisão narrativa na literatura junguiana, este artigo busca (1) explicitar a relevância histórica dos estudos relacionados à religião para a construção do pensamento junguiano, (2) apresentar noções e concei- tos junguianos fundamentais para a compreensão dos significados de religião, espiritualidade e saúde (3) e discutir as possíveis implicações da religião e da espiritualidade para a saúde mental.

The method used in the investigation was a bibliographical research and theoretical analysis of the junguian and not junguian literature related to the theme. Spirituality is comprehended as a personal quest for the life meaning and may be related to the sacred and the transcendent. Religion is understood as an organized set of beliefs, rites and symbols wich may promote the contact with the sacred and the tanscendent. Religiousity refers to the level of religious involvement and the possible impacts of this involvement. Jung doesn’t explicitly refers to the term spirituality, but it appears imbricated in his Works, specially when he talks about religion and confession. The concepts of Archetype, Symbol, Ego, Self and Individuation Process were better explained because as were found out, they are the key to comprehend, in Analitycal Psychology, health, spirituality and the possible relationships. Health is considered as multidetermined and due to the constant involvement with the emerging symbols from psyche, what allows the free course of the Individuation Process. Lastly, is noted the necessity of studying and discussing the spirituality at the psychology course and to consider it relevant to the psychoterapeutic process, without the adopting a negligente atitude about the spirituality and health phenomenon.
