Our Flabby and Inchoate World: A Jungian Glimpse Into Why Things Suck https://medium.com/illumination/our-flabby-and-inchoate-world-a-jungian-glimpse-into-why-things-suck-bc86c3558312
I found this short video fascinating, especially when Marie-Louise von Franz (who is incredible btw) talks about the concept of a national shadow and how knowing one's personal shadow can help keep one from falling into a collective shadow. But the rest is great too.
Ho scoperto grazie a @jones_@kolektiva.social "Introfada: Lotta antisistema del militante introverso" di Hamja Ahsan.
In questo articolo provo, partendo dal manifesto di Ahsan, a decostruire la tipizzazione junghiana estroverso/introverso (mostrandone il carattere storicamente determinato) e a superarla proponendo un'interpretazione dell'introversione in chiave materialista. Cerco poi di rileggere il fenomeno hikikomori come prodotto della società neo-liberale. Infine rispondo ad Ahsan con un anti-manifesto.
Mi piacerebbe scrivere una serie di articoli come questo, in cui, mettendo insieme le intuizioni di vari autori, viene delineata una teoria sociologica del disagio contemporaneo, da contrapporre alle teorie dominanti di stampo psichiatrico e terapeutico.

#jung
Grabbing a table and an americano at farmer’s union and working on my #screenplay by way of #Jung, #tarot, and #archetypes.
I've been reading Robert A. Johnson's book, Inner Work. I was lead to this book because I've been reading Jung and wanting to remember my dreams. I've enjoyed what I've read so far. And now I just bought Johnson's book, Owning Your Own Shadow, after watching the excellent video below.

Uhm... #introduction
Nothing really to say about me as a person, I have crippling #anxiety & so no life/accomplishments to speak of. Here are some of my interests, I'm an expert on none.

Apologies if I'm doing anything wrong, I mean no offense.
I've stumbled upon this place looking for some kind of calm, relatively cozy internet space where I can seek out a tiny community. Or just talk into the void, that works too. I'm looking to find my voice again and what it is I want to say.
I'm Jen. I'm a writer, lately more of a thinker, and I'm looking to start fresh with something new. And not just my writing but my whole self moving forward. I've been through so much internal transformation in the past few years that I've come to feel alienated from pretty much everything/one I know. I need to re-orient myself within all of this change. I'm finding that difficult to do with the people who have known me for a long time---it can be so hard to break out of the expectations of those closest to you, those who think they see you so well, but no longer do. I aim to create a little chrysalis for myself, so to speak, so I can embody myself more fully.

Taking off my academic hat, what intelligence and genius actually are: This 2023 essay explains what intelligence is: not measuring or comparing people, but rather a characteristic of life itself, which AI can never have.

Hi!
Perhaps a Re-#Introduction is in order since there's so many more people in this space to share stories and insights with.
I'm an #Alchemist. I manipulate symbols and materials to effect #transformations and thus transform myself.
My practice was revealed to me in a series of trances by an ancient #goddess who has many historical forms. Some of these are the #Kemetic goddesses known as the Eyes of Ra. She recently revealed to me that she would like me to refer to her as #Hathor. I'm not second guessing that advice.
I'm a cis het old guy (58) happy married for 25 years. I adore women. Mostly from afar.
Race- white, blue eyed ethnic jew.
My technique is centered on an apparatus I built based on a design the goddess revealed. I later connected the components and operation symbolically to equipment and processes described in classic #Alchemy sources.
I'm a non-traditional Alchemist. I don't use a forge or do metallurgy. My device is electrical and uses a type of #crystal to focus energy. It can roughly be described as a type of lamp. The picture shows the output of my process. It's called a #Violograph.
It is commonly asserted, and I agree, that the coveted philosopher's stone refers to the practitioners themselves. As the goal of the process it is in reality the transformed person.
This is done by separating the spirit and soul from the #body, changing them and then re-uniting them in the body again. Carl #Jung has some interesting ideas on this.
Politically- #anarchosyndicalist and card carrying #Wobbly. I’ve been working at the same factory for 28 years.
Other areas of interest besides the #occult are listed below.
Music-
I write songs, play electric #bass and #ukulele. Not famous at all.

Food: #glutenfree, I'll take what I can get. Non-celiac.
Drink- #pinotgrigio wine spritzers mostly.
A pinch of #weed goes a looooonnnng way. After 45 years of smoking I'm a total lightweight now that it's legal here. That's #Chicago (officially a suburb 10 miles outside city limits), btw.
Everyone I’ve met here is awesome!
Peace and Solidarity!
