This article analyzes the appropriation of the theory of recapitulation of phylogenesis by the ontogenisis, of the biologist Ernst Haeckel, by the Swiss psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung in the formulation of his psychology project. For this purpose, we used the definitions contained in the book Symbols of Transformation, and the concept of archetype, that establish dialogues between the fields of biology and psychology. The biological formation of Jung, combined with his interest and practice in the field of psychology, allowed an amplification in his way of conceiving the phenomena he observed. The attempt to address a theme, both biologically and psychologically, reveals not only care but also a commitment to the production of knowledge, which, rather than seeking to enhance its original field of work, seeks to establish interdisciplinary dialogue. Being the book Symbols of Transformation, the work through which Jung is prepared to divulge his own theories and ideas, we can deduce that in using in such work certain premises of Haeckel the author ends up revealing to us one of his important epistemological influences.
