What is Oedipus Complex?

The Oedipus complex is a concept of psychoanalytic theorySigmund Freud introduced the concept in his Interpretation of Dreams (1899). It refers to a child's unconscious desire for the opposite-sex parent, thought as a necessary stage of psychosexual development. Freud considered that the child's identification with the same-sex parent is the successful resolution of the complex and that unsuccessful resolution of the complex might lead to neurosispedophilia, and homosexuality.

Freud deprecated the term "Electra complex", which was introduced by Carl Gustav Jung in 1913 in regard to the Oedipus complex manifested in young girls. Freud further proposed that the Oedipus complex, which originally refers to the sexual desire of a son for his mother, is a desire for the parent in both males and females, and that boys and girls experience the complex differently: boys in a form of castration anxiety, girls in a form of penis envy. Oedipus refers to a 5th-century BC Greek mythological character Oedipus, who unwittingly kills his father, Laius, and marries his mother, Jocasta. A play based on the myth, Oedipus Rex, was written by Sophocles, ca. 429 BC.

Oedipus is the hero of the ancient Greek play oedipus Tyrannus, by Sophocles, which tells the story of how oedipus was abandoned at birth by his parents and returned as an adult to kill his father and marry his mother. Freud suggested that if this complex is not resolved in the young child, it contributes to neurosis in later life. Swiss psychologist Carl fung suggested that such feelings were not restricted to boys but that girls could also experience a similar complex. ( Dr. Manish Bhatia)


LACHESIS (LACH):  Mentally , Lachesis is  jealous and the main remedy for the Oedipus complex, when the child must accept the father’s interference in the mother-child relationship. To identify with the father, be jealous of the father, desire to kill the father, and finally to accept him and love him- this is the prelude to the child’s socialization.  ( Dr. Didier Grandgeorge).
