Beautiful, thank you for sharing

Yes. I love what Jung said about the anima and animus, the shadow, etc. Been a long time since I read "Man and his Symbols", but it shed a lot of light on the human condition.

[@The_Jungian_Aion]

And what is better than more light on the human condition! Here is Man and his Symbols' as an audiobook, in case you want to refresh your memory :) kzbin.info/aero/PLHLBwD1Fmz9amxzD0PM4IhgW0C1v6BG5m

@@giovanna722 Jung is wonderful and provides a great deal of insight. Spiritual liberation is expressed as reconciling both natures in ourselves. What we project we have to withdraw and reconcile within ourselves; that is the spiritual perspective. Once reconciled we may have a partner in life but we see them realistically as their unique selves and we do not project an unreconciled part of ourselves on to them.

Dude. Ur page n these videos r next level. Thank u so much

[@The_Jungian_Aion]

I appreciate that!

That is also in yoga practices to balance the feminine and masculine energy. One going the edge in any of both could disturb their inner balance. Through yoga poses we try to balance these two energy types to create a harmony in the internal physiology-emotional regulation. The gender roles and societal gender norms makes it harder and harder every day to understand the meaning of energy forms and diversity it from the genders or sexual orientation. But also there is a conscious shift happening I believe to see more of this topic in the right sense and direction

It is true: I have had thoughts. Thoughts that, if turned into actions, would have backed fire at me. I will now silently use the expression "back water" as a mental projection in order to remind myself to create and share thoughts designed to back water at my ego. ps : I am using the word "water" quite like Bruce Lee would use it. Be water, my friend! Be water!

[@magentapilot4576]

Just nails it ❤

[@KJKali]

Very interesting. Is there a clip where she speaks specifically about the Animus in more detail? I would appreciate a link if so.

As our timeless "Mother of God" (mother and son) iconography suggests, matriarchal and patriarchal spirituality are inseparable and coexist through an understanding of God's eternal cyclical nature. Represented by the serpent in many creation myths, the living cycle has a trinity of a beginning (head), a middle and end (tail). As above so below, the sexes were created in the image of God's cyclical nature where Mother is the head and opening to all beginnings and Father holds the tail to all endings (through which the sowing of seeds allow for the next great matriarchal rebirth).The joining of the two (symbolized by the Ouroborus or the marriage ring) is the sacred union needed in assuring the creation and continuation of new life cycles. To speak of the present day God as "Our Father" is simply an admission to our collective positioning within the bigger cycle. As all mothers have direct experience with the creator quality of birthing, so is the direct experience of rebirthing the divinity within (baptism) belong to that which is spiritually matriarchal. (John 3, verse 3-8). Sekhmet statues (ancient Egyptian) carry most of their weight in symbolic memory of what was a mother culture dedicated to the direct experience of baptism. As the leg shaped hairlocks extend from maternal breasts to the womb of rebirth, the lioness's head proportions are such that they highlight the bust of a second animal figure. The Lioness's ears as eyes and eyes as nose (nostrils) brings to life the figure of a reptile. 'Neath the halo headress of the solar egg, the lioness's egg fertilization process being internal (Set) and the reptile's egg fertilization process being external (Setting), such being key components to the safety of entering the trans-egoic or "born again" state. The life threatening fear associated with the predatory nature of a lion and/or crocodile encounter are reflective of the intense ego death experiences associated with the transpersonal awakening process. In spiritually matriarchal times, illumination could be seen as wearing the false beard (ancient Egyptian funerary "ego" death mask) as the high state of cyclical self knowing; high awareness of both our upper matriarchal half and our lower (later) patriarchal half (compared with a mini lower body replica, an "as above so below" tail end beard extension); in full recognition of her civilizational Underworld; her inevitable cyclical destiny. The male pharaoh wears his beard tapered in reverse, indicating a pointing upwards towards the patriarchal head, divine representative of God's tail end cycle. Mary's anointing and wiping of Jesus's feet with her hair can then be seen as "Head to tail" (toe) imagery as she descends her matriarchal head to his patriarchal feet, thus reenacting the high understanding of the divine cyclical process. (John 12, verse 3) To carry the Ankh (now the female symbol ♀️) was perhaps to symbolically carry that upper and lower understanding. As the upper matriarchal womb symbolised the fertile birthing of civilization, below, the now Christian cross is carried to place emphasis on the lower (later) "End Times" Father principle of the great cycle. Lord Ganesh, the elephant headed Hindu diety, displays a cyclical head to trunk symbolism and points to the Mother head of his matriarchal elephant society. Ganesh (like the elephant) wears God's cyclical nature on his face. A whole temple was dedicated to Hathor (ancient Egyptian diety), who is the matriarchal "Uterus" personified. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGHQYa2AiKp5gZI "See all women as mothers, serve them as your mother. when you see the entire world as the mother, the ego falls away. See everything as Mother and you will know God." - Neem Karoli Baba "My son, keep thy father's commandment and forsake not the law of thy mother" - Proverbs 6 : 20

hello, I noticed a resemblance between Jung's and Woodman's facial expression and even parts of the facial constitution: very concentrated eyes, few wrinkles, clear articulation of words/translating thoughts.

[@The_Jungian_Aion]

Indeed!

[@Talore-Evans]

Part of the feature of feminine is the ability for that named energy to prepetuate and maintain a womb, along with the rest of the lady parts. Rather it's become a catch all bias for people with male genitalia to run from. I'm curious what this energy was called 4,000 years before it was called feminine. As a man. My anima showed up and terrified the crap out of me, I was very angry at Mom, society and life for lying to me about a crotch deal ription. I go a few days without eating, I wear women's clothes by myself and the reproductive parts start to feel like a crisp,.complete ladie's baby maker. Assuming this was absurd, I went back to wearing men's clothes and forgot all about it. This was years ago, until I stumbled on this video. Now I'm looking at it all differently.

[@molina346]

1:53 What does she mean about the macho man r*ping the feminine in dreams? Is there significance?

[@mattbaatz6465]

Psychologically, this is the image of the domination of the psychological feminine by the performative and undeveloped psychological masculine. A devaluation, degradation, and dehumanization of the feminine is going on in the collective psyche as well as in the individual psyche. This occurs within each of us in some form or another and it is destructive. These inner forces can be set in proper relationship and reconciled.
