Who are you destined to be?
Welcome Traveller. I hope you’ve enjoyed your weekend. I’ve submitted applications to 6 Undergrad courses across 3 Universities! I visited each of their respective Open Houses, and have spoken with people at several of their Program booths. I went into this with an interest in taking a double major or a major/minor, so I wanted …
Greetings fellow Traveller! I’ve written at least 3 blog drafts before finally settling down to write this one. My apologies to those I’ve sent here with nothing to offer you before now. I was stuck. Sometimes I get stuck too… Getting unstuck is what I’m here for. It’s the “TL/DR” of why I established Facets …
I had the opportunity to discuss the Shadow and Shadow Integration a couple of times this past weekend, and found myself unable to land on a concise explanation of its power. I feel this will play an important role in the life direction I’m heading, so I should spend some time refining my vocabulary around …
Well, the anniversary came and went. I couldn’t remember the exact date of it until just now, when I dug up the first book I was using to write some of these experiences down. I don’t care so much about “the anniversary” -ish-ness of it, but I like to know the dates for some reason …
A lot has happened in the past few months. I had taken a brief hiatus from here to concentrate on some personal matters. This turned into a not-so-brief hiatus. Although “personal matters” will continue to need room in my life for the forseeable future, so too will the need to make room in my life …
Video: Thank-you /u/Frone0910 for this animated presentation of concepts from Jung’s “The Philosophical Tree” This video made me cry. It so closely resembles the journey I’ve been on – and continue to be on. This video describes me (us). The following ABSTRACT is borrowed from the animator.

The other day, when I talked about the Anger Muscle, I was really leading into something deeper I call the Inner and Outer Voices (setting your narrative), Jungian archetypes (intrinsic values, more or less), and thanks to some recent reading, we tie into brain structures – specifically the Limbic System. It intrigues me that there …
On the way home from work one night, I was considering something rather fundamental to the Awakening. I thought about how each of us who have gone through it have transcended their fear of Death. The commonality of it deserves further study, but for now I want to focus on the experience itself, and why …
In a conversation with a dear friend last night, we got to talking about something pretty deep – I can’t remember specifically how we arrived at this, but an example came up about how you get angry and curse at someone in the car when they cut you off on the highway. We then briefly …
This guy does a good job covering Jung. This content is pretty spot on to my experience of self. It feels kinda weird always comparing my experiences to Jung’s theories. I tend to agree with most of what he writes, from my own experiences. But not with everything. And that’s okay. This is a journey, …
