An Introduction to the Shadow

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 …

The Anniversary

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 …

Catching Up

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 …

The Philosophical Tree is Real

Video:  Thank-you /u/Frone0910 for this animated presentation of concepts from Jung’s “The Philosophical Tree” This video made me cry.

It intrigues me that there …

An Introduction to the Anger Muscle

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 …

Coniunctio Oppositorum

 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, …
