Myths are archetypal stories present throughout the world. Those archetypal stories have the power to guide our individuation path, even when we are not fully conscious of them. In this debut of the Kaxinawá mythology applied to Jungian studies, I present The Story of the Origin of Remedies from the Woods along with the powerful goddess Yushã Kuru, or the Purple Female. The choice of an Amazonia mythology epitomizes a decolonizing option to analytical psychology, as it brings voices and perspectives other than the Eurocentric view of the world.
