The death of a parent or parents and the settling of the inheritance confront siblings with fraternal conflicts of their early childhood. The sharing of money and assets will reveal archaic drives, fraternal complexes and the imprint of archetypes. Since money is often equated to an individual’s perceived self-worth, the will is considered to be a measure of the value each had in the eye of the parents: reflecting love and the quality of the respective relationship and in some cases, a possible sign of preference. The process of sharing the estate can also reveal the shadow in the form of unbridled greed or desire for revenge. Jung explains the link between money and the psyche through the figure of the Trickster, capable of transforming feelings into their opposites and creating a complex relationship between money, power and love. During the succession, working through grief is crucial in order to transform the loss and to find a new sense of rootedness within one self and the family, reinvesting narcissistic identifications.
