This article proposes a formal topological framework for modeling the mandalicstructure in Jungian psychology. We abandon the purely geometric conception of themandala to conceptualize it as a centered and hierarchical topological organizationof psychic space. Using fuzzy intuitionistic topology, we formally define: (1) themandalic center as a fuzzy object, (2) the radial structure of concentric open sets,(3) boundaries as symbolic rings, and (4) a notion of regulated symmetry. Theframework suggests structural criteria to distinguish integrative from fragmentedconfigurations and proposes a heuristic formalization of the individuation process astopological recentering. The notions of distance, connectedness, and compactnessare used in a generalized topological, not strictly metric, sense.
