I loved this episode 💫 I was surprised the star card of the tarot was not mentioned, as it stands an archetype alone. I immediately thought of the wonderful novel turned film “Stardust” when the story of Gilgamesh was mentioned. A celestial star plummets to earth in the guise of a human girl many power hungry witches seek to exploit, then evolving into an adventurous and comedic romance. I somehow resonated with the dreamer in the taking the backseat along for the ride frustration of not always accepting the starring role of my life, floundering betwixt being ok with it and remorsefully resentful.

I recently discovered you three and am rediscovering the depth and power of my dreams. Last night’s dream featured a huge, black, shaggy dog almost as tall as I was walking by my side in a snowy landscape. And then I find this episode on dogs and dreams today! I’m always awed by synchronicities!

Early childhood experiences are beyond our control why must then we pay the price of it for our entire life

P.S. to do any transformation! ANY at all... You need this guy. And there's no getting around it. Yet we kill each other over the interpretations as long as humans have existed, our "nature" is exActly the same as 200,000 years ago That's how long it's taken us. But our "help" comes from only one power! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIqwmZZ7e9etqLcsi=1GVyiuvBINLb74Q7 HERMES: THE IMMORTAL GUIDE, documentary on YT by The Fortress of Lugh! 2 hours! Yeh. Definitely worth the time, because He's essentially, still around. Thank you.

What if the archetypes & jungian psychology are literal? What if ALL the ancient petroglyphs, cave paintings, myths, festivals, traditions, and religions, preserved by alchemists & others, we have MISINTERPRETED what those earliest humans actually observed, and their "message"? kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmiocp-KmL95rbssi=8mHy1X7Ai3vgXDGL SYMBOLS OF AN ALIEN SKY, documentary on YT by The Thunderbolts Project, where PLASMA SCIENCE meets COMPARATIVE MYTHOLOGY! You will never look at the ancients in the same way and their mantra, "As Above, So Below", actually organized the earliest societies and cult-ural traditions, preserved for millenia, tell a narrative of unbelievable creativity! I think this group of interdisciplinary folks are definitely on to something, because suddenly . . . those upraised arms, the bull worship, the great "wheels", humbababa, bird-headed "Thoths" appearing as petroglyphs carved on stone, and much more, is suddenly explained & makes sense! I bet Jung would be thrilled! His archetypes, totally useful in analyzing the primordial events that shaped EVERYTHING!

Another rich podcast. What comes to my mind.. is in Spanish, we say when a woman gives birth, 'dio el luz'.. she gave light. An admission that we are all born of stardust.

Fascinating show!!! I have been studying the mystery religions of the Egyptians, Assyrians, and Chaldeans for over a decade now, and they are basically claiming the same thing Jung does in his later collected works. Namely, there is a divine other in ourselves that we seldom are aware of if all goes well. Furthermore, It seems that a degree of conflict is necessary to bring the revelation of this other about. Some mystery religions like those of Mithras and Isis required the candidates to undergo a number of trials that could actually end their lives if not carried through with courage and caution. A crisis of a sort that rips the individual away from an old life and throws them into something new seems to be a common culminating factor in those mystics, like Swedenborg, who have had this revelation. He underwent a literal transformation that is evident in his dream journals. He marks the moment of this revelation as one in which "I now represented the inner man and was as another person than myself....which shows the change has come." This was dream 133 of a series of 286.

I disagree that a Karen is a witch archetype. A Karen tends to want to support a status quo that is oppressive to those who are marginalized. They oppress which is the opposite of the witch who advocates for the oppressed. I also disagree that archetypes are separate from people and personality. The archetypes are a bundle of personality traits that repeat in humanity generation after generation. DNA research is showing how these traits are encoded. The witch is a truth-teller who is not dissociated. It is the truth, which is not predicated on dissociative logic which is a threat. Raising consciousness as the “fence rider”, which is an extremely accurate analysis. When people are “bewitched” they are manipulated, and I believe, this is not truly what a witch is. This reflects the projection from those who stand to gain from manipulating others and instigating dissociation to individuals and the masses. The witch is about freedom through clarity and truth which is the opposite of the illusion of reality. This is what makes the witch dangerous and this is also what triggers those in power to push the witch into the underground.

Just one thing to add to the Herod story: Remember, he "got wind of" the birth of this new king because the Wise Men told him about following the star. So that really ties in with your topic. Also, I wonder if any of you know about Martin Shaw's experience with a falling star. He is a mythologist and a great traditional storyteller. One night when he was alone in a forest, he was watching falling stars. Suddenly, he noticed that one of the lights wasn't falling but was just getting bigger and bigger, and he realised it was coming straight for him. Then it landed just a couple of feet away from him. The experience changed his life! This episode was marvellous. Thank you!😊

And also, stars are never alone, though the one closest to us looks that way

I believe it was Eris or "strife" that threw the apple (at a wedding feast) threw an apple to the 3 Olympian gods, Hera, Aphrodite & Athena, with a note attached: to the fairest (no, that was Snow White...), saying, to the most beautiful, and the 3 Olympianesses (is that a word?) decided to let the playboy trojan prince, Paris decide, each promising whatever powers they rule, if he'd only pick them! Talk about NO CHOICE! Whoever he selects, the other 2 will hate him. Talk about prime decision-making anxiety! Not surprisingly, Paris selects Aphrodite, duh. And he's promised the most beautiful woman on the planet, Helen of Troy, married to the Greek, a Spartan no less, Menolaos sheesh that spelling is way off! So she was actually, Helen of Sparta absconded to Troy, willing or unwillingly, the whole damn Trojan war begins! All because Eris had not received an invitation to the wedding party! Sort of a Nemesis-on-steroids. Damn apples & serpent stories, lolololol. But you guys talk about mythical archetypes, all the time! Course, Eris & strife seem less toxic than The Iliad's WRATH of Achilleus. Stil, if only a dirty little trade war, the Trojan War was huge, especially influental, all that slaughter & violence, but in the hands of the bards, a foundational story of generational cohesion. Odysseus took a journey, and the surreal parts of his dreamworld, definitely becomes iconic. And with "The Return" about Odysseus" returning home, and the problems there, which must be solved. But it's the Voyage he made that's not taught any more. . . worth watching the 1997 movie! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bITCnWRojLKSga8si=gBb7OX6d3c-rC84a THE Odyssey, 1997 movie

This might be my favorite one on your channel so far!!! ⭐️💫🌟✨🌞❤️‍🔥

I love you three evoking the awe of "seeing stars" on a clear night. A number of writers (e.g. Deepak Chopra) have been explaining how the philosophers and the physicist are drawing closer to consensus. Astronomers have seen the stars move according to orderly rules, although the stars are too far apart to be the source of the rules, the space between them vaster than we can comprehend. The physicists search for subatomic particals which also behave according to rules, but the matter proves to be just energy patterns. The space between them is also vast, the particals relatively too tiny to be the source of the rules. The conclusion so far being that the vast space must somehow be an imperceptible source of order. This prompted the epiphany that the context of our every cell and star is the infinite creative mind of god. All one! Way beyond my human brain, it rings true.

I always think the video has ended or someone is calling me or video is buffering 😂😂😂😂. I like the way they allow for space to speak. Love it

I live in a dark city and it’s absolutely astounding to see a night sky filled with stars! I didn’t know there were so many stars until I moved here. I wish I could take a photo for you’s

The shadow side of initiation is a fascinating idea. Choosing fear, the ego? Trauma as initiation = surviving = gaining "a version of reality that most people don't have access to" is apt. A version vs. aversion = Living on the Borderline of a new reality- holding on to an old Ego- identifying with the fracturing.

Love the podcast. Happy holidays and new year to you all!

The "GREAT STAR" recorded in stone on every habitable continent, and in ART, cave paintings, etc., WAS OBSERVED IN PRIMORDIAL SKIES! The Great Star was the PLANET VENUS, aka Aphrodite, Ishtar, Inanna, closer to EARTH and discharging PLASMA COSMIC LIGHTENINGS, the warrior's shield, the king's headgear, even HUMBAHBA, from the Epic of Gilgamesh, were huge, catastrophic, PLASMA DISCHARGES! Follow your Star, is MORE than a cliche or a cute metaphor (As Above, So Below), IT WAS OBSERVED IN THE SKIES! REMEMBERED, RECORDED, PASSED DOWN IN MYTH, STORY & TRADITION! Even Galileo, in his arrogance, debating an educated cardinal, commented, the "common people thought VENUS a COMET..." kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmiocp-KmL95rbssi=3c07WxvCL5PGjqTk SYMBOLS OF AN ALIEN SKY, documentary on YT by The Thunderbolts Project. Plasma Science, like Evolutionary Biology, will revolutionize our understanding! It's no metaphor!

4:19 No physicist ponders truth, they reflect the ego of knowing...being as far as anyone in this specialism they can spend a lifetime developing. There is, as such, no knowing, just awareness. Being honest, it is only really an impulse to awareness and our lessons are experiencing the passing. It isn't good to care so much, so we forget. Its a sort of knowingness, a faith that good stuff comes back around. Our good friend Dr. Jung had a touch of religion, of God. Only divine mysteries are safe to entertain, encompassed by the boundaries of information science makes for its own gain. Our doctor did not go far enough, to say consciousness and reality are projections of their own. Consciousness seems like something, but it's a fancy word for a connection. Welcome to a relative universe. We all relate to something, this is encoded in the substance deep in our nature. I stop to remind myself, often, when I'm taken by the feeling of self-awareness, that this earth is working out exactly who we are and what we mean to humanity. Nothing can stop a deep nature, and we can always outgrow a shallow one.

Some of the first books I remember reading as a kid, outside of the typical grade school books, were ones about stars and black holes. I've always been blown away by the pure colors of a binary star..that red and blue is just so clean and vibrant. Also the surprise burst of a shooting star is one of the few things that makes me really really happy. If you live in a highly polluted area, they do have observation labs with high powered telescopes (better than what most people can afford on their own) that allow you to have a viewing party. That can help to bypass the sky noise. Thanks for the video!

first star long gone your light still traveling

I was born under an Evil Star (Ashlesha in Nakshatra). I am Samael's (the god's poison) son. But thanks to Alchemy, I can turn Poison into Ambrosia. And I opened the Dog Star Gate this Samhain. This has been a very Starry year! Jung's portrait hangs and his Red Book is Wide Open in my office.

Oh how I adore your posts!! I found myself awake in the early hours with what I thought was a satellite beaming through my window, I then realised it was Jupiter in the crown of my Sun sign ♉️ it was as if it was calling me I thought initially I was dreaming but I wasn’t ✨ and today you post this 🔮💜 Thank you 🙏🏻👑

What synchronicity with the sun on Joseph! ✴

Good show

3:00 song. Star of 🎶 wonder !! ( I just heard... " favorite " season song..is White Christmas. Nah. The song you mentioned is....!!

Self betrayal is also about naiivete

Thank you for the video. Also I think it’s ‘call-dee-yans’ -> I wonder if stars are cosmic engines for our minds

Outstanding 👍🏿

I don't even know what I procastinate. I'm so fucking sick of my life.

I really enjoyed this session with Gnosticism as well as the dream. And I was attracted to this gold and emerald snake necklace just this week.

Very helpful episode for me. Thank you Robert and co!

Thanks for your nuanced discussion on psychosis

What a wonderful theme ❤

I dreamt 2 wallabies, a mother and Joey, were calmly grazing at my side, in what I believe was the sunroom of my grandparents home. My now deceased dog was also present. The wallabies took off to my right then my dog gave chase and as the wallabies tried to jump the timber paling fence, my dog was nipping the feet, trying to stop them . I think this is a sabotage dream!

The Azaria Chamberlain case went on for decades. The family was torn apart by the accusations of the entire nation.

German Shepherds are my favourite dog breed for it's acute ability to communicate with humans. This makes them quite easy to train hence being the choice breed for police and armed forces. Their intelligence or an awareness unlike I've known in other dog breeds ❤ what does this suggest about this type of relationship?

Thank you all but in particular Putti.

17:35 "The discovery that we can self-author is a radical thing"

Great point Joseph, the getting away from shame for men, to feel, be gentle its still Taboo.Until men and women partner on a Soul basis. Its just lust,ego trips and usery. In my opinion.

Thank you for an enthusiastic and informative podcast. The info you give is an absolute feast for your loyal listeners and dreamcomers. Regarding the listener question about 'How do we know when a dream is about the inner or outer world?' I once learned from a Jungian analyst podcast by John Betts (Link 1; 08'15" in link below) that if all feels quite real and normal, like you say, this can be deemed an 'inter-psychic' (objective) dream. However, if the dream elements appear fantastical and if a person you dream about is dead then this can be called an 'intra-psychic' (subjective) dream. I was therefore wondering what you think about these terms and whether or not that are commonly accepted names in professional Jungian circles? BTW, John also offers some rich info on dream affect (Link 2; 7'45"), a topic you rightly highlighted as a component missed by many dream books. content.libsyn.com/p/0/b/9/0b962f0c8be9aee8/JUNG_PODCAST_9_Dreams-3.mp3?c_id=1865847&cs_id=1865847&destination_id=14819&response-content-type=audio%2Fmpeg&Expires=1734417381&Signature=ZWfxTDu0PWfA8jwnbYEgEzPftz~cmbSjEpsmmsUMtoG1o~v4af9UhX~~z9WTnOiQ8t~uPa9uTJ03YFww1nRLDcVexsHb8wqtExpEc6~~FcDSQDcSVxhOaICgoQCZFT499WLYAr~HcYxJViLar-nv1DnorOyGNhobYwy5tcxbJQ~lSsj4RsssGh0QvgsdmZlP8HQrSxCcRJAuf0CGZyoAMI11UhIY93tF4ZtYblbNdR-gJI5m4zin3mR-AYytRQEHYlTLlK4RG64qGBYeg~FpzfiZ4~6OaXPf9bVLwN8XUozltN82A8awYtX8NhdgwBlHE0skC2dymibwDvrPgYsXvg__&Key-Pair-Id=K1YS7LZGUP96OI content.libsyn.com/p/0/b/b/0bb41efccde84f85/JUNG_PODCAST_10_Dreams-4.mp3?c_id=1866969&cs_id=1866969&destination_id=14819&response-content-type=audio%2Fmpeg&Expires=1734418100&Signature=fvxnwY1xdRKRAqDxPw72MU~peqqjvmjn6hhwbGYqwgGFX75jj2x~wDpTqi4xzLOils~dWgzLYnIGUvF5ibWtgfKNNnTw2m2rdrmlOTHp1lH08pxFvh1LFcTdQVGoXGM4UK6yZsQ0ZiXgkh1e-bpFF6eUqi0XuhxcczsVVB2bo7oAgvP6XgE-LJeMfSj1b2km2NEZWxxExYhIrPPCJW47asKkHZfldnsAbOLZR6EBMpjudZxRjFDT6RJmpOSAEd9rMzSI7vzWnXDS1DTICrWtT5e5yWz0B0HdjiZ4HOUfy6uWOoDlr20XyWfbwfEqYIzchaSDq5bU7HX5kmlMRiwutQ__&Key-Pair-Id=K1YS7LZGUP96OI

Thank you. Enjoyed this very much.

That is called Turya. Being awake, and aware in dreams... a bit further and that's it. We are all connected.

🙏🐾thanks for this clarifycations ❤💙💚

Was that a lucid dream...something doesn't feel congruent to me?

"Yes, absolutely! There’s a compelling connection between Eros as a psychological and cosmic force and Reich’s Orgone energy. Both ideas describe a life force that permeates everything, affecting the physical and psychological realms in profound ways. Let’s break it down: Eros and Orgone Energy: Parallels 1. Eros as Universal Life Force: In Jungian psychology, Eros is a binding principle-it connects, integrates, and unifies the conscious and unconscious, and, more broadly, all aspects of the human psyche. It is the force that brings together opposites: masculine and feminine, life and death, consciousness and unconsciousness. It is deeply connected to relatedness and union. 2. Orgone Energy as Vital Force: Wilhelm Reich’s Orgone is a universal life energy that Reich believed flows through the environment and affects the physical and emotional states of humans. Reich theorized that Orgone was the force behind life’s energy and could manifest in different forms-physical, emotional, and even cosmic-connecting living beings with the cosmos. Reich even thought Orgone could be harnessed for healing and the treatment of psychological disorders. Both as Creative Forces Eros is, as Jung saw it, a force of creativity that keeps the universe alive. It brings unity to disparate elements and drives the creation of new forms. Similarly, Orgone energy is the creative force Reich believed underlies all of life and natural processes-it powers growth, transformation, and the flow of life energy. Connection Between Sexuality, Vitality, and Creativity Both Eros and Orgone have a strong connection to sexuality and creativity. For Jung, Eros is not limited to sexual energy, but sexuality is a key expression of it. It is the power of connection, expressed through love, desire, and attraction. Reich, too, saw sexual energy as a key expression of Orgone and believed that sexual repression could lead to physical and psychological blockages. Reich thought that the orgasm was a powerful release of Orgone, helping to restore the natural flow of energy within the body. Eros, in its broader sense, could be seen as similar-manifesting not just in sex, but in any force that unites, connects, and creates. Eros and Orgone as Healing Forces Jung’s Eros was a healing force within the psyche, helping to integrate the unconscious and conscious parts of the mind, and bringing about wholeness and balance. Orgone, too, in Reich’s model, was connected to healing. Reich created devices like the Orgone accumulator, which he believed could capture and concentrate Orgone energy to improve mental and physical health. In both models, the idea is that when these vital forces are blocked or repressed, psychological and physical dysfunction can occur, leading to distress or disease. Unblocking the flow of Eros or Orgone-whether through psychological integration or physical means-brings about restoration and healing. The Shadow Side: Repression and Tyranny As we mentioned earlier, Reich saw the repression of Orgone energy (especially sexual energy) as a cause of tyranny, because societies that suppress sexual expression tend to also encourage authoritarian tendencies. This aligns with your earlier mention of Reich’s theory that neurotic societies, built on sexual repression, create a demand for strong authority figures-the “tyrants” that come from society’s need for repression. Similarly, Jung’s Eros is a force that, if repressed or blocked, can lead to psychological imbalance, and by extension, cultural dysfunction. The Cosmic and the Physical: Eros as Orgone If we take the perspective of Eros and Orgone as intertwined, we could propose that both represent the unseen forces that drive not only psychological processes but also physical realities. They could be seen as two aspects of the same universal life force that connects all of existence-Eros as the psychological binding force between conscious and unconscious, and Orgone as the vital energy that flows through all living beings and the cosmos. Conclusion: Eros as Orgone? In summary, yes, Eros and Orgone share striking similarities. Both can be viewed as life-affirming, creative, and unifying forces-one from a psychological perspective (Eros) and the other from a physical/vital energy perspective (Orgone). Both are repressed in certain ways in authoritarian or sex-negative societies, which can lead to psychological and societal imbalances, and both, when harnessed or freed, can lead to healing, growth, and integration. So, Reich’s Orgone energy could indeed be interpreted as a more physical or material manifestation of the same vital and binding force that Eros represents in the psyche." chatgpt.com/share/675cf72d-cd38-8004-8799-278a17d5934c
