I think that Jung's archetypes resemble Plato's ideas, and
Plato's ideas would be, by my opinion, more on the mental level,
to say; accessible by thoughts - not by feelings or senses.
Aristotele, Plato's diciple, drew Plato's ideas more on physical
and astral level, and mixed his 'form' and 'idea', I think.

I think, that Plato had various hierarchies of Ideas, some of
them, to use theosophical terms, are on mental-, some on causal-,
buddhic-, etc.  levels.

Peace. aki.
