Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'unconscious' (mental contents outside conscious awareness) combined with 'mind' yields ‘the part of the mind not in conscious awareness.’ This is a literal, descriptive combination found across languages and therefore readily understandable to a B1 learner who knows both constituents.
Etymology
Unconscious mind gives a simple picture: imagine a hidden room in your head where feelings and memories sit out of sight. These hidden things still make you act, so unconscious + mind means the part of your mind that works 'not aware' but affects your actions.
