Carl Jung's myth was what struggle brought consciousnes to the universe, and that the Almighy was becoming conscious because of the struggle of living creatures. For Carl Jung, a myth was man's way of understanding the mysteries of the cosmos, which might not mean it is factually true, but is still spiritually true. That there is a reason for mankind and a reason for why the universe is the way it is - with all its opposities that produces consciousness - light and dark, happiness and sadness, hot and cold, etc.
