THINKING refers to the faculty of rational analysis; of understanding and responding to things through the intellect, the "head" so to speak.Thinking means connecting ideas in order to arrive at a general understanding. The Thinking-type often appears detached and unemotional. The Scientist and the Philosopher are examples of the "thinking type", which is found more commonly in men.
FEELING is the interpretation of things at a value- level, a "heart"-level rather than a "head"-level. Feeling evaluates, it accepts or rejects an idea on the basis of whether it is pleasant or unpleasant. According to Jung this is the emotional personality type, and occurs more frequently in women.
Thinking and Feeling are both rational, in that they both require an act of Judgment. Sensation and Intuition are both irrational, in that they involve no reason, but simply result from stimuli (whether external or internal) acting upon the individual.
SENSATION means conscious perception through the sense-organs. The Sensation personality-type relates to physical stimuli. But there is a difference according to whether the person is an introvert or an extrovert. So we could have an Introverted-Sensation type, such as an artist, who experiences the physical world (sensation) from the perspective of the psychic or inner consciousness (introversion). As opposed to this, the Extroverted-Sensation type would be the person who is a simple materialist or hedonist, interested only in physical or pragmatic things. This type tends to be realistic and practical. At worst, one may be crudely sensual. This personality-type occurs more often in men.
Finally, INTUITION is like sensation in that it is an experience which is immediately given to consciousness rather than arising through mental activity (e.g. thinking or feeling). But it differs in that it has no physical cause. It constitutes an intuition or hunch, a "gut"-level feeling, or an”ESP" experience. It is the source of inspiration, creativity, novel ideas, etc. According to Jung, the Intuitive type jumps from image, is interested in a while, but soon loses interest

Collective Unconscious
Collective unconscious is another term of analytical psychology originally used by Carl Jung. This concept is based on the Freudian concept of unconscious, although Freud did not distinguish between an "individual psychology" and a "collective psychology", Jung distinguished the collective unconscious from the personal unconscious particular to each human being. The collective unconscious is also known as "a reservoir of the experiences of our species." But the problem with Jung’s idea is he did not point out whether it is a universal unconscious or a racial / cultural unconscious as his written theory pointed out.
Cultural Dreams
Instead of talking about individual dreams Jung gave the notion of cultural dreams. Carl Jung believed dreams content uses symbolic language. He proposed that a dream expresses collective racial unconscious memories and instincts shared by all people.
Fairy/Folk Tales
Jung believed that folktales grew out of our "collective unconscious," experiences that are rooted in the past of all mankind so that stories which grew out of them are found among all peoples.
