The Psychology of Knowing Yourself 51:24

for 28 dager siden51:24

51:24

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.

The Psychology of Immature Femininity 50:14

50:14

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 Psychology of Immature Masculinity 47:59

for 24 weeks siden47:59

47:59

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 Masculine https://amzn.to/3BJI1cz 🎧 Prefer Audiobooks?

Through the Labyrinth: A Guide to Navigating Chaos 40:59

for 29 weeks siden40:59

40:59

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 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps (0:00) Introduction (1:55) The Labyrinth as The Path of Life (3:26) The Classical or Archetypal Labyrinth (4:19) Labyrinth of Egypt (5:03) The Labyrinth and The Maze (9:18) Anxiety is the Dizziness of Freedom (11:24) Time is a Labyrinth (12:25) The Labyrinth and The Minotaur (17:25) The Origins of The Mythical Labyrinth (19:52) Archetypal Symbolism of The Labyrinth (24:42) The Labyrinth: Descent into Hell (28:03) The Labyrinth and Alchemy (30:56) The Journey to The Centre (The Self) (32:34) From Earth to Heaven to Earth (34:16) The Medieval Labyrinth: Spiritual Journey (35:15) The Labyrinth as The Pilgrim’s Journey (39:25) Conclusion ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 Recommended Reading ▶ Through the labyrinth: designs and meanings over 5,000 years - Hermann Kern https://amzn.to/4e5WAW1 ▶ Labyrinth of the World and Paradise of the Heart - John Amos Comenius https://amzn.to/4dWV0WV ▶ Labyrinths: Selected Stories & Other Writings - Jorge Luis Borges https://amzn.to/3Z2LCvW ▶ Pilgrim’s Progress - John Bunyan https://amzn.to/3yZl9VK ▶ The Divine Comedy: Inferno; Purgatorio; Paradiso - Dante Alighieri https://amzn.to/3zkiHZQ 🎧 Prefer Audiobooks?

The Psychology of Animals 59:59

for 33 weeks siden59:59

59:59

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?

The Psychology of UFOs - Carl Jung 50:35

for 38 weeks siden50:35

50:35

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 Jung https://amzn.to/3RRw8GL ▶ Passport to Magonia: From Folklore to Flying Saucers - Jacques Vallée https://amzn.to/3W3el1X ▶ Crop Circles, Jung, and the Reemergence of the Archetypal Feminine - Gary S.

The Psychology of The Paranormal - Carl Jung 48:34

48:34

Since early childhood, Carl Jung experienced paranormal phenomena, that is, phenomena that are beyond the scope of scientific understanding. They were virtually commonplace in Jung’s family. Jung’s personal experiences with the paranormal would set him on a quest to find an explanation of these events with his theory of analytical psychology, as well as sparking his interest in parapsychology, the study of psychic or paranormal phenomena, especially regarding extrasensory perception or ESP (precognition, clairvoyance, telepathy, intuition, etc). Jung attended séances which formed the basis of his doctoral dissertation published in 1902, entitled On the Psychology and Pathology of So-Called Occult Phenomena. Jung admits that his period of the séances with his medium cousin contained the origin of all his ideas. He had discovered some objective facts about the human psyche. From then on, Jung got his first glimpse of the fact that there was another world (the unconscious) which had a life of its own quite apart from the life of consciousness. 🛒 Official merch ☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps ( 0:00 ) Introduction ( 0:53 ) The Paranormal in Jung’s Family ( 4:43 ) Séances and Occult Phenomena ( 12:22 ) Confrontation with The Unconscious and Synchronicity ( 16:09 ) Visions and Altered States ( 21:22 ) The Seven Sermons of the Dead ( 23:30 ) Jung's First Mandala: Systema Munditotius ( 24:36 ) The Voice of the Dead ( 26:58 ) Jung’s Paranormal and Parapsychological Experiences ( 37:26 ) Rationalism and Superstition ( 39:13 ) The Psychological Foundations of Belief in Spirits ( 41:56 ) On The Reality of Spirits ( 46:26 ) Conclusion ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 Recommended Reading ▶ Memories, Dreams, Reflections - Carl Jung https://amzn.to/3waQbIJ ▶ Reflections on the Life and Dreams of C.G.

The Magician is the most mysterious and fascinating of all archetypes. He is a person who has gained access to esoteric or occult (hidden) knowledge, bringing the spiritual to the material. Thus, he is an initiate of secret and hidden knowledge of all kinds. As the Emerald Tablet teaches us, “As above, so below, and as below, so above, to accomplish the marvels of the One work.” The Magician is often the mentor or guide to his people, and even to the king. Psychologically, the Magician is the archetype of transformation, transforming old realities into new ones. He is the archetype of self-realisation par excellence. The Magician aids us in our lifelong task of attaining a higher level of consciousness, and of recognising that higher power which is greater than ourselves. 🛒 ⁠Official merch⁠ ☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps (0:00) Introduction (2:22) Merlin (5:10) Hermes Trismegistus (6:17) Magic: The Shadow of Religion (7:32) Sympathetic Magic (8:30) Magic in Ancient Times (10:53) Grimoires and King Solomon (12:10) Necronomicon (13:00) The Archetype of the Sorcerer’s Apprentice (15:10) Renaissance Magic (18:13) Low Magic and High Magic (18:34) White Magic and Black Magic (20:11) Archetypal Images of the Magician (23:45) The Archetype of the Miracle (25:12) Magician: The Archetype of Transformation (29:29) Mana Personality (30:20) The Shadow Magician (31:50) The Magician and The Trickster (33:36) The Magician in Tarot (35:30) The Magician in Jung’s Red Book (37:18) The Integration of the Magician Archetype Thank you for your support. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✉️ Send me anything you like to my mailing address: Eternalised P.O.

The Wise Old Man or Sage is an archetype that is recognised by almost everyone, be it in stories, games, movies, or everyday life. In myth he is often shown as one living in isolation, meditating and living a simple life deep in a forest, in the mountains, or in other uninhabited places. The Wise Old Man is a lover of wisdom, and uses his experience to guide others. He is portrayed as a mysterious person or a wizard, in contact with nature and the numinous and unseen forces that permeate our existence. The Wise Old man appears as a teacher of wisdom such as King Solomon from the Bible. In Hermeticism, he is Hermes Trismegistus, the fount of all wisdom and the teacher of the mystery of all ages. In China, the sage is Lao Tzu ("old man" or "old master"), the founder of Taoism, while in India there are the sadhus and yogis. In Arthurian Legend he is Merlin, in Nietzsche he appears as the prophet Zarathustra, and in Carl Jung as Philemon. In modern popular fiction we have Yoda, Gandalf and Dumbledore, among others. In the individuation process (the lifelong journey towards psychic wholeness), the archetype of the Wise Old Man is late to emerge, and is therefore seen as an indication of the Self (the total personality). 🛒 ⁠Official merch⁠ ☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps (0:00) Introduction (1:35) The Symbolism of the Desert (3:30) The Hermit and The Wandering Ascetic (5:00) The Wise Old Man Archetype (12:32) Senex and Puer Aeternus (14:47) The Dark Side of The Wise Old Man (18:34) The Wise Old Man and The Hero (19:44) The Dangers of Identifying as The Sage (21:00) The Hermit in Tarot (24:35) The Hermit and The Madman Archetype (27:18) Facing Death in Old Age (28:08) The Forgotten Art of Solitude (32:48) The Sage’s Journey: The Search for Truth (35:20) The Eternal Inner Centre (37:24) The Book of Ecclesiastes: Meaninglessness (38:47) The Truth Shall Set You Free (39:50) Conclusion Thank you for your support. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✉️ Send me anything you like to my mailing address: Eternalised P.O.

The Quest for the Holy Grail (The Self) 38:59

for 2 years siden38:59

38:59

The Quest for the Holy Grail has fascinated the Western consciousness for a long time. It epitomises the true spirit of Western man and is, in many ways, the myth of Western civilisation. It is a perennial and timeless pattern that expresses fundamental concerns of the human condition. The Holy Grail is a mysterious object guarded by a king in a hidden castle. It has been described as a cup, dish, or a magical stone that can provide healing powers, immortality, eternal youth, and unlimited nourishment. It represents the fulfilment of the highest spiritual potentialities in human consciousness, which endows the world with a symbolic and spiritual meaning. The quest for the Holy Grail is always more or less the same, it is the hero’s journey, at the end of which one obtains the “treasure hard to attain.” It is the search for that which makes life most meaningful. Psychologically, the Holy Grail—like the philosophers' stone—is a symbol of the Self, the psychic totality and ultimate wholeness of the human being. The soul which represents the life principle, is that wondrous vessel which is the goal of the quest, whose final secret can never be revealed, but must ever remain hidden because its essence is a mystery. 🛒 ⁠Official merch⁠ ☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps ( 0:00 ) Introduction ( 2:44 ) Perceval and the Grail ( 9:35 ) The Continuations of the Grail Legend ( 10:35 ) The Grail and The Philosophers’ Stone ( 13:46 ) From Grail to Holy Grail ( 23:17 ) Holy Grail: The Spirit of Western Man ( 24:41 ) The Treasure Hard to Attain ( 26:10 ) The Eternally Alone ( 27:52 ) The Holy Grail as the Self ( 29:19 ) Balancing Light and Dark ( 33:12 ) Merlin: The Wise Old Man Archetype ( 36:53 ) Conclusion Thank you for your support. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✉️ Send me anything you like to my mailing address: Eternalised P.O.

The Psychology of Fairy Tales 47:59

for 2 years siden47:59

47:59

Fairy tales fascinate us and give us a sense of warmth and home-coming that comes from the mythical realm of the imagination, a necessary complement to our everyday life. We are fundamentally story-telling creatures, and there is much we can learn by reflecting on the fairy tales heard in childhood. They seem almost magical because they connect us with emotions deeply buried within that cannot find expression in outer life, because as we grow up, the world of imagination is shunned by our peers, considered as unproductive and good for nothing. Fairy tales can provide us with a sense that we are not alone in our life struggles. Humans have faced these struggles in one form or another since the beginning of time, and fairy tales represent this fundamental concern of the human condition. Psychologically, fairy tales reflect our inner landscape, and the characters can represent aspects of our own personalities. Jungian analyst Marie-Louise von Franz writes: "Fairy tales are the purest and simplest expression of collective unconscious psychic processes. Therefore, their value for the scientific investigation of the unconscious exceeds that of all other material. They represent archetypes in their simplest, barest, and most concise form." 🛒 ⁠Official merch⁠ ☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps ( 0:00 ) Introduction ( 3:43 ) What are Fairy Tales?

The Psychology of Nightmares 40:29

Nightmares. We all have them. But what exactly do they mean? Why do we have bad dreams? Is there any psychological meaning behind them? Nightmares are the source of much of the horror we see in stories, myths, movies and games. They are an encounter with the dark side of the unconscious, which often includes facing some of the most painful aspects of who we are. And one does not know what that part of oneself is, until one confronts it. Nightmares are the most substantial and vitally important dreams, and are of therapeutic value. They wake us up with a cry, as if all our repressed content forms a bubble which expands until it bursts one night, and we experience a nightmare. They are the shock therapy nature uses on us when we are too unaware of some psychological danger, and shock us out of deep unconscious sleepiness about some dangerous situation. As if the unconscious says, “Look here, this problem is urgent!” The psyche tells us to “wake up” and face what we have neglected. The majority of nightmares represent opportunities for personal healing through much-needed emotional release. 🛒 ⁠Official merch⁠ ☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps ( 0:00 ) Introduction ( 3:00 ) Dream-Motifs in Nightmares ( 3:37 ) Lilith: The First Nightmare ( 5:07 ) The Origin & Folklore of Nightmares ( 9:09 ) Non-REM Sleep (Night Terrors) ( 10:36 ) REM Sleep (Nightmares) ( 11:43 ) Nightmare in Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment ( 15:40 ) Fever Dreams and Franz Kafka ( 17:36 ) Post-Traumatic Nightmares and Recurring Nightmares ( 19:00 ) Precognitive Nightmares ( 20:36 ) Carl Jung and The Meaning of Dreams ( 26:07 ) The Shadow and Nightmares ( 28:32 ) The Devouring Mother Archetype ( 30:39 ) Active Imagination ( 33:08 ) Lucid Dreaming ( 36:14 ) Nightmares and Artists ( 37:40 ) Nightmare Artists: Beksiński and Giger Thank you for your support. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✉️ Send me anything you like to my mailing address: Eternalised P.O.

Philosophy: The Love of Wisdom | A Guide to Life 59:59

for 2 years siden59:59

59:59

Philosophy is a mode of life, an act of living, and a way of being. Modern philosophy has forgotten this tradition, and philosophical discourse has all but overtaken philosophy as a way of life. Philosophy is not just an intellectual discipline, which can get abstract and divorced from the real world, but is most importantly a way of life that teaches us how to best live our lives. Philosophy is a mode of existing in the world, which has to be practiced at each instant, and the goal of which is to transform the whole of the individual’s life. Real wisdom does not merely cause us to know: it makes us “be” in a different way. Ancient philosophy proposed to mankind an art of living. By contrast modern philosophy appears above all as the construction of a technical jargon reserved for specialists. 🛒 ⁠Official merch⁠ ☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps (0:00) Introduction (2:18) Philosophy as a Way of Life (7:12) Socrates (8:53) Master of Dialogue: Know Thyself (13:30) Plato (15:58) Idealism: Platonic Forms (17:15) Parable of the Cave (19:33) Plato’s Cave in The Matrix (20:16) Plato’s Tripartite Theory of the Soul (22:36) Philosophy as an Exercise of Death (24:56) Aristotle (27:06) Hellenistic Schools (28:25) Cynicism (31:45) Pyrrhonism (34:46) Stoicism (39:45) Premeditatio Malorum (41:03) Memento Mori (42:24) Voluntary Discomfort (43:54) Epicureanism (50:12) Similarities Epicureanism & Stoicism (50:57) Neoplatonism (57:45) View from Above: Cosmic Consciousness Thank you for your support. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✉️ Send me anything you like to my mailing address: Eternalised P.O.

The Psychology of The Wounded Healer 31:44

for 2 years siden31:44

31:44

The wounded healer refers to the capacity to be at home in the darkness of suffering and there to find germs of light and recovery. It is the archetype at the bottom of all genuine healing procedures. As long as we feel victimised, bitter and resentful towards our wound, and seek to escape from suffering it, we remain inescapably bound to it. This is neurotic suffering, as opposed to the authentic suffering of the wounded healer which is purified. The wound can destroy you, or it can wake you up. As Carl Jung wrote, "The doctor is effective only when he himself is affected. Only the wounded physician heals." 🛒 ⁠Official merch⁠ ☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📨 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps (0:00) Introduction: The Wounded Healer (1:39) Chiron: The Wounded Healer (4:03) Asclepius: The Greek God of Healing (6:13) Asclepieia: Healing Temples (11:12) The Importance of Death (15:06) The Wound as Initiation: Hero’s Journey (17:30) The Sacred and The Profane (19:59) The Wound as Initiation: Shamanism (21:49) Compensatory function (22:51) Repetition Compulsion (23:32) Pharmakon: Poison and Cure (24:26) Therapist as Wounded Healer (29:49) Conclusion Thank you for your support. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✉️ Send me anything you like to my mailing address: Eternalised P.O.
