While Death may appear at times terrifying and at other times playful, those he summons almost always tremble with fear. All except one: the Fool. He joins the dance with a smile, laughing at the absurdity of it all. To him, the world is a theatre, and all men and women merely actors, each wearing different social masks to play their roles in society.There is something in the fool that Death appears to admire, something he seeks to imitate. Death, too, likes to play tricks. He does not always come as grim and serious, but often laughing, and dancing, mimicking the fool. Both laugh at human pretensions and the illusion of control over life, bringing down the proud and powerful whenever possible. Death’s unsettling grin mirrors the fool’s vacant smile or raucous laughter. Together, they embody two universal conditions that many prefer to ignore: mortality and folly. As “truth-tellers”, they show the hard truths hiding beneath everyday life.The fool’s joy in life dares to challenge Death’s dominion. Though Death always triumphs, it is never without a fierce struggle to overcome one of his most stubborn victims. For the fool embodies life, not death. He laughs at Death, and Death laughs back, but the fool still dances along the track.The fool dancing with death represents the union of opposites, life and death, wisdom and folly—a characteristic of the Self. When we stop seeing contradiction and start recognising paradox, something within us begins to heal. When the opposites are united, bliss arises. This is the true transcendent experience.“There is a mystical fool in me that proved to be stronger than all my science.” - Carl Jung📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🛒 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Official merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━📚 Recommended Reading▶ Either/Or - Kierkegaardhttps://amzn.to/46ltGR6▶ The Top Five Regrets of The Dying – Bronnie Warehttps://amzn.to/4f0Jpr3▶ Twelfth Night – Shakespearehttps://amzn.to/46Efq6f▶ Thus Spoke Zarathustra – Nietzschehttps://amzn.to/46m7M06▶ The Complete Grimms' Fairy Tales https://amzn.to/415wX3j▶ The Idiot - Dostoevskyhttps://amzn.to/3IX3Ade▶ Tarot and the Archetypal Journey: The Jungian Path from Darkness to Light – Nicholshttps://amzn.to/4lHLxqf🎧 Prefer Audiobooks?

“I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.” These profound words by St. Paul express the struggle between the desire to do good and the inability to carry it out, due to the power of sin within human nature. The misalignment between our intentions and our actions is part of our daily life. For example, we may know that we love someone deeply, yet find ourselves acting with wrath towards that person. We want to be humble, but fall into pride. We intend to work hard or study, but give in to sloth. This lack of self-control reveals an inner split, an age-old problem that lies at the heart of the human condition. It is more than mere weakness; it is a symptom of sin. But sin is not just the breaking of moral rules. It is a rupture in our very being, a loss of inner harmony. Since this condition is something we all share, it cannot merely be seen as a personal sickness but as a universal aspect of the human condition.📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🛒 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Official merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠━━━━━━━━━━━━━📚 Recommended Reading▶ Poetics - Aristotlehttps://amzn.to/4037U0i▶ Nicomachean Ethics - Aristotlehttps://amzn.to/4kFLYRk▶ ESV Biblehttps://amzn.to/45gxDWJ▶ The Divine Comedy - Dante Alighierihttps://amzn.to/3SPbF5M▶ Faust - Goethehttps://amzn.to/3HFzYAC▶ Modern Man in Search of a Soul - Carl Junghttps://amzn.to/3HQqKS2▶ Projection and Re-Collection in Jungian Psychology: Reflections of the Soul - M.L. von Franzhttps://amzn.to/3FLIYUn▶ C.W.

In 1952, at the age of seventy-six, Carl Jung wrote Answer to Job in a single burst of energy and with strong emotion. He completed it while ill, following a high fever, and upon finishing, he felt well again. The book explores the nature of God, particularly what Jung perceived as God’s dark side, a theme that preoccupied him throughout his life. In it, the theology first explored in the Red Book—the progressive incarnation of God, and the replacement of the one-sided Christian God with one that encompasses evil within it—found its clearest expression. This makes Answer to Job one of Jung’s most controversial works. Jung wrote in a letter that the book, “released an avalanche of prejudice, misunderstanding, and above all, atrocious stupidity.”The fundamental idea in Answer to Job is that the pair of opposites is united in the image of Yahweh. God is not divided but is an antinomy—a totality of inner opposites. This paradox is the essential condition for His omniscience and omnipotence. Love and Fear, though seemingly irreconcilable, coexist at the heart of the divine.The story of Job follows a righteous man whose faith is tested by Satan with God’s permission. Job loses his wealth, children, health, and the support of his friends, who insist he must be guilty. His cries for justice go unheard, so that Satan’s cruel wager can proceed undisturbed. God allows the innocent to suffer. Still, Job is certain that somewhere within God, justice must exist. This paradox leads him to expect, within God, a helper or an “advocate” against God.Jung flips the traditional understanding of Christ’s work of redemption: it is not an atonement for humanity’s sin against God, but a reparation for a wrong done by God to man.“God has a terrible double aspect: a sea of grace is met by a seething lake of fire, and the light of love glows with a fierce dark heat of which it is said, “ardet non lucet”—it burns but gives no light. That is the eternal, as distinct from the temporal, gospel: one can love God but must fear him.”When Jung was once asked how he could live with the knowledge he had recorded in Answer to Job, he replied, “I live in my deepest hell, and from there I cannot fall any further.”📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🛒 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Official merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠━━━━━━━━━━━━━📚 Recommended Reading▶ Answer to Job: (From Vol. 11 of the Collected Works of C.

Carl Jung published his book Psychological Types in 1921, introducing four functions of consciousness: thinking, feeling, sensation and intuition, and the two attitudes through which these four functions are deployed: introversion and extraversion. Jung’s functions follow a fourfold structure, which is typical of the archetype of the Self. We are dealing with the archetype of the differentiation of consciousness, which helps you to become who you are meant to be. Jung combined function types and attitude types to describe, in turn, eight function-attitudes. These were the psychological types in Jung’s original description. However, very few of us, even among psychologists, can recognise the eight function-attitudes described by Jung.Jungian psychologist John Beebe expands on Jung’s work on types, extending the fourfold model to an eightfold model of personality, as well as associating an archetype with each type. The first four archetypes are: the hero/heroine, the father/mother, the puer aeternus/puella aeterna, and the anima/animus. These are ego-syntonic, as they align harmoniously with the needs and goals of the ego. As for the other four function-attitudes, we enter the realm of the shadow, or the ego-dystonic personality, which includes: the opposing personality, the senex/witch, the trickster and the demonic/daimonic personality.We may see these eight archetypes as different personalities within the vast theatre of the unconscious. They too have a role to play in our lives, seeking to express themselves outwardly. It is by integrating these archetypes of the collective unconscious that we truly become an individual. This process is at the heart of individuation. It is the journey of discovering your essence—who you were meant to be. When an inner situation is not made conscious, it happens outside, as fate. If we do not gain control over the images within us, we run the risk of them gaining control over us.📖 Personality Types, Astrology, Numbers (eBook) 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🛒 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Official merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠━━━━━━━━━━━━━📚 Recommended Reading▶ C.W.

In her 1984 book, Goddesses in Everywoman: Powerful Archetypes in Women’s Lives, psychiatrist and Jungian analyst Jean Shinoda Bolen delves into seven feminine archetypes within woman’s psyche, based on the goddesses of ancient Greece, whose names and mythologies have endured for more than three thousand years. Myths are not mere fictitious stories or fantasies of the human mind, but perennially recurring patterns that describe fundamental concerns of the human condition. What fulfils one woman may mean little to another, depending on which feminine archetype is constellated (or activated). Knowledge of the feminine archetypes provides women with vital information about their psychological difficulties, allowing them not just to understand themselves, but also their relationship with others. They also explain some of the difficulties and affinities women have with men. Knowledge of the “goddesses” provides useful information for men too. Men who want to understand women better can use feminine archetypes to learn that there are different types of women and what to expect from them.When you recognise the forces influencing you, you move closer to fulfilling the age-old maxim, “know thyself.” If you can learn about your own patterns of being, you can save yourself from some suffering. 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🛒 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Official merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠━━━━━━━━━━━━━📚 Recommended Reading▶ Goddesses in Everywoman: Powerful Archetypes in Women's Lives https://amzn.to/4ewYjU1🎧 Prefer Audiobooks?

The crisis in mature masculinity is very much upon us. Men feel anxious, on the verge of feeling impotent, helpless, frustrated, unloved, unappreciated, and often ashamed of being masculine. Something vital is missing in the many lives of men. For students of mythology and Jungian psychology, there is hope. The external deficiencies we face—absent fathers, immature role models, a lack of meaningful rituals, and the scarcity of ritual elders—can be overcome if we look within ourselves, and turn towards the archetypes of the mature masculine within our unconscious. In King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine, Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette explore the difference between Boy psychology or the archetypes of immature masculinity and Man psychology or the archetypes of mature masculinity, as well as their shadow sides.“The more beautiful, competent, and creative we become, the more we seem to invite the hostility of our superiors, or even of our peers. What we are really being attacked by is the immaturity in human beings who are terrified of our advances on the road toward masculine or feminine fullness of being.”🛒 ⁠⁠⁠⁠Official merch⁠⁠⁠⁠☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠━━━━━━━━━━━━━📚 Recommended Reading▶ King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculinehttps://amzn.to/3BJI1cz🎧 Prefer Audiobooks?

Confusion, wandering, isolation, darkness, disorientation—all evoke the labyrinth, a complex network of paths in which it is difficult to find one’s way out. Or do they? The labyrinth’s original meaning has been entirely distorted, which is only to be expected from such a perplexing symbol. Today, the labyrinth is found everywhere: in architecture, art, books, movies, and games. The labyrinth is an archetype, a primordial image that dates back to the Bronze Age (around 2500 to 2000 BC), making it one of the oldest symbols. The archetypal image of the labyrinth fundamentally expresses the path of life, full of dark corners and unexpected turns. If we overcome them, we are transformed and enlightened – if not, we become disoriented and find life meaningless.The labyrinth is an archetype, a primordial image that dates back to the Bronze Age (around 2500 to 2000 BC), making it one of the oldest symbols. It encompasses various images: the path of life, the Earth Mother, birth, dance, warding off evil, initiation, liminality, the descent into the underworld, symbolic death and rebirth, the journey to the Self, the alchemical Great Work and the pilgrim’s spiritual journey.🛒 ⁠⁠⁠Official merch⁠⁠⁠☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠━━━━━━━━━━━━━📚 Recommended Reading▶ Through the labyrinth: designs and meanings over 5,000 years - Hermann Kernhttps://amzn.to/4e5WAW1▶ Labyrinth of the World and Paradise of the Heart - John Amos Comeniushttps://amzn.to/4dWV0WV▶ Labyrinths: Selected Stories & Other Writings - Jorge Luis Borgeshttps://amzn.to/3Z2LCvW▶ Pilgrim’s Progress - John Bunyanhttps://amzn.to/3yZl9VK▶ The Divine Comedy: Inferno; Purgatorio; Paradiso - Dante Alighierihttps://amzn.to/3zkiHZQ🎧 Prefer Audiobooks?

Animals have been an integral part of human existence since our earliest origins. They are deeply ingrained within us and play a crucial role in the unconscious. In various religions, animals are revered as gods. Swiss psychiatrist and psychologist Carl Jung frequently remarked that animals embodied the divine aspect of the human psyche. He wrote a bold statement for a thinker of his era, "Even domestic animals, to whom we erroneously deny a conscience, have complexes and moral reactions.” We belong to the animal kingdom, and knowing this is part of the individuation process, the journey towards wholeness. Yet, we seem to have forgotten our roots. The animal is a symbol of the Self. It embodies the complete wisdom of nature yet does not possess the light of human consciousness. Animals are deeply connected to a “secret” order within nature itself and the absolute knowledge of the unconscious, living according to their own inner laws beyond human notions of good and evil. Animals live exactly as they were meant to live, and grasp a sense of wholeness instinctively, rather than intellectually. They are the ones who can lead us to this source of natural life. 🛒 ⁠⁠Official merch⁠⁠ ☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps (0:00) Introduction (2:45) Animals: The Divine Side of The Human Psyche (7:42) Animals in the Unconscious (8:46) Our Animal Instincts and Symbolic Animals (12:08) The Helpful Animal Motif (15:36) The Archetypal Symbolism of Animals (18:05) The Psychology of The Cat (25:50) The Psychology of The Dog (33:53) The Psychology of The Horse (37:35) The Psychology of The Bull and Cow (40:30) The Psychology of The Lion (45:43) The Psychology of The Serpent (58:05) Conclusion ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 Recommended Reading ▶ Archetypal Symbolism in Animals – Barbara Hannah https://amzn.to/3AaM1lW ▶ Grimm’s Fairy Tales https://amzn.to/3WwtBDk ▶ The Interpretation of Fairy Tales – Marie-Louise von Franz https://amzn.to/3yxI8qt ▶ Archetypal Patterns in Fairy Tales – Marie-Louise von Franz https://amzn.to/3Wm2ta4 ▶ The Cat: A Tale of Feminine Redemption – Marie-Louise von Franz https://amzn.to/3ya7Z80 ▶ Animal Presences: Uniform Edition of the Writings of James Hillman, Vol. 9 https://amzn.to/3Wwgylq ▶ Aesop’s Tales https://amzn.to/4fqrhGO ▶ Medieval Book of Beasts https://amzn.to/4foDzPT 🎧 Prefer Audiobooks?

Strange sightings have been reported in the sky throughout history. After the Second World War, however, the appearance of UFOs became prominent in culture. Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Carl Jung studied the UFO phenomenon for more than a decade until his death in 1961. He wrote a book entitled Flying Saucers: A Modern Myth of Things Seen in the Skies, where he saw UFOs as a living myth for modern man, stating that we have the golden opportunity of seeing how a legend is formed, and how in a difficult and dark time for humanity a miraculous tale grows up of an attempted intervention by superior or “heavenly” beings.Jung’s field of interest is the human reaction to the phenomena, an effort to understand the complex working of our interior life, as this is revealed through the UFO phenomenon. UFOs are visionary rumours whose basis is an emotional tension having its cause in a situation of collective distress or danger, or in a vital psychic need – shedding light on the psychic compensation of the collective fear weighing on our hearts. UFOs have become a saviour myth, as we have projected on them a hope, an expectation. They express the symbol of totality represented by the mandala, the archetype of the Self, whose chief role is in uniting apparently irreconcilable opposites and is therefore best suited to compensate the split-mindedness of our age, bringing order and regulation to chaotic states.🛒 ⁠Official merch⁠☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠━━━━━━━━━━━━━⌛ Timestamps(0:00) Introduction(3:32) UFOs as Visionary Rumours and Collective Visions(5:56) UFOs as Collective Distress and Mass Hysteria (7:30) UFOs as Saviour Myth (10:02) UFOs as Living Myth(12:29) Folklore and UFOs(16:30) Collective Dream(17:17) Messengers of Deception(19:19) Religion and UFOs(20:05) Ontological Shock and The Absurd(21:00) Psychic Aspects of UFOs(28:45) Unus Mundus: Psyche and Matter(30:55) Crop Circles and Archetypal Feminine(35:36) The Physical Existence of UFOs(37:15) The Case of Orfeo(44:53) UFOs and The Age of Aquarius(49:10) Conclusion━━━━━━━━━━━━━📚 Recommended Reading▶ Flying Saucers: A Modern Myth of Things Seen in the Skies - Carl Junghttps://amzn.to/3RRw8GL▶ Passport to Magonia: From Folklore to Flying Saucers - Jacques Valléehttps://amzn.to/3W3el1X▶ Crop Circles, Jung, and the Reemergence of the Archetypal Feminine - Gary S.
