Judgement Day as the Uncovering of the World Shadow

Perhaps the greatest error or omission of modern science is in the process of compartmentalizing and abstracting to understand, loosing a grasp and view on what Jung discovered as the unconscious and that what we call morality is really built into the very innermost fabric of reality. The ancients and indigenous would refer to it in their animated view of nature. This is why they would also approach nature with reverence and deep respect and even in a worshipful manner. Western reductionistic mechanistic science lost this in its compartmentalized view when it reduced nature to basically a mechanism and abstract forces. This is why Einstein said god does not play with dice. He really could not fathom nature being or behaving meaningfully or thus with intent.

In a prior writing (on the Pinocchio archetype) I said that our objectifying of nature went in tandem with our own objectification. We also did this to our view of the body, while we now know that the body is where the unconscious also resides and so that the body just like the dreams is part of how the unconscious and shadow can and does compensate us.

Meaning and Nature

Pauli and Jung proposed meaning as an alternative to causality. The radical shift in worldview thus that this would entail would eventually be too much to bear for even Pauli. The difference with the animistic worldview is that we would not be separate from this process of correction or judgement, which could be more accurately called unconscious self-judgement. So not only would become inevitable the fathoming of a deeper source of meaning involved in the direction of evolution but that we would be part of this synchronistic movement of evolution.

In fractal terms the body is a fractal of the larger body of the earth. And so not only the body would be able to respond to us in a meaningful and compensatory way but also nature could be seen as able to do this. This while the mechanistic view would make us see body and earth as requiring us to improve and fix them.

The shadow and its tendency to compensate us when we are too off beat (because of for instance concealing things) i have in other writings also argued can thus be seen as the inner justice system. The shadow and its tendency to compensate us is really what in the west has often been referred to as our conscience and in the east Karma. In the new sciences it is referred to as the self-organizing nature of reality.

The Inner Justice System

The real justice system is in ur body and u r in it. It is all around us and really what Jung discovered as the unconscious. Being the unconscious, it is nature itself. It is not only a set of abstract separate laws as science views nature. Neither is it a catalogue of written private laws which someone/group administers to another (for its own benefit). We all have learnt too well that all we find in that law concept is that the administrator of that form of justice never applies it to themselves. Everybody is subject to this real justice called the unconscious. Meaning that both external and internal nature is moral, in terms which will be delineated below.

It is neither like: please write it on ur heart. It is built into ur Self (which is what heart meant in that context), and thus ur atoms, as ur inner self-compass. It is not a system to punish u. It is a system to heal u. Because peace (wholing/healing) can only come after justice, which is the internal compensation/balancing that the shadow establishes to correct/heal our lopsidedness.

We Are Judging Ourselves

Yet perhaps most shocking of all is that it is thus a part of ourselves doing it to ourselves. So for instance we find the shadow emerging in diseases really as a means to correct the person from being off beat in key aspects of their lives. For instance prostate cancer can be the way someone who off beat in this area of their (sexual) life would be compensating themselves. So what we find thus really here is how a part of us ourselves is compensating us because we are very off beat in certain areas of our lives.

How hard the shadow or what we have concealed and have hidden returns in this sense depends on how willing we are to accept its corrective effect. It can be a drop, a leak, a flood or a Tsunami...a volcano, an earthquake.

The shadow work is the remembering of the parts we have cut off, hidden, buried. When not done consciously the shadow reemerges via diseases, accidents and at near death experiences or death as a final life review or judgement. Lying and deceit is really at the core of the rejecting of the shadow. This is why the shadow work is the real justice process.

The World Shadow

What we are witnessing worldwide is this compensatory process occurring similar to how it occurs individually, now collectively. This is because we are at an end of cycle/time and like at the end of a person's life, now we must undergo this life/history review if we are to move onto the next level. Individually vulcanos, floods, earthquakes, Tsunamis represent the violent return of the shadow or what is concealed in someone's life. I have for instance witnessed this in the dreams in terms of an individual. For instance an earthquake in this person's dreams would correlate with a heart-attack out of the dreams. It is like a built in mechanism we have in our most innermost to stop us from a totally wrong development and not fully self destruct.

It can really be anything and everything that will curb the wrong direction we are on. In dreams of someone for instance on a too inflated (too high yang) track we can find being attacked or a very hard fall as a way this inflation is curbed. The problem is that too often it is not understood.

This is now happening globally in terms of the uncovering of the world shadow. The current global system, the way this happens with a very split and lopsided inflated individual, is crumbling and must fall because it is based on deep corruption, crimes and injustices. It is premised on a very instable foundation.

It is no coincidence that we see the huge banking cartels, heads of religious bastions many states, huge corporations etc etc. all loosing all credibility and falling. So this apocalypse, we are all experiencing at the individual level is also being replicated collectively. It all depends on us how huge the compensation will be given how much we allign with this compensatory movement to come clean, or we keep enabling a lopsided system...

Are We Having Fun Yet?! (Meaning of Bliss out Illuminati Card Game)

In this writing will be illustrated briefly how a huge part of the New Age bliss out approaches which have come from the east (the false usage of these), are actually found in the very Card Deck referred to as the Illuminati cards. Meaning thus that this is one of the key pieces of the Illuminati script being unfolded and which ends with the Asteroids card and the Alien invasion card.

At that point, of the Asteroid and then the Alien invasion card we reach what the media is literally calling now 'Zero Hour' (ABC t.v. series premiered on February 15th.), which is the point I have often referred to as bifurcation. It is also referred to as singularity. Bifurcation of the 2 timelines means the timelines will start to separate and that one side goes onto hook up more and more to the smart computer mainframe environment. Which leads to a hoax rapture or singularity, where those entering are really abducted to a lower digital dimension in which soul or individuality is lost. The card discussed here has bearing on that development.

It is in the 60's with the whole hippie, flower power movement that we find a major piece of the puzzle, represented in this card, where drugs, psychedelics, combined with eastern techniques "supplemented" with western psychoanalysis were used in what I've often referred to as 'bliss-out', 'zone out' or 'space out' techniques. This is no coincidence; In dreams we found that these techniques are literally taking people to deep outer space like the Moon, Mars and even Saturn, the home of the cyber god: Prometheus. One needs to understand that we are the signal not the tv set, so where this signal is being raptured to is crucial.

I want to explicitly state that this says nothing of the eastern techniques as Meditation, Tantra etc in and of themselves, which within the eastern tradition have evolved for the mind within that tradition and the basic problem that has to be solved there.

Yet this 60's bliss out program has gone hand in hand with many of the eastern gurus who have come to the west within this context and have been not always the real sacred private eastern traditions necessarily.

We see leading bands as the Rolling Stones with songs as: "I can't get no satisfaction... and I try... and I try..."; clearly representing the bliss out (get Stoned) approach. We see also The Beatles under the tutelage of Maharishi, literally creating the global anthems for free sex and 'do whatever you want' fueled by drugs. The dictum ignorance is bliss is really what was fostered by this card/agenda in the sense that if u didn't see something it didn't exist, which was really a method for cutting off the shadow in disguise. And thus a ticket onto the false time line. This laid the basis for a next generation which resulted from this 'everything goes' tradition not even knowing who their real father is, etc.

It laid the basis for the destruction of the corner stone of society: the nuclear family. In the way Big Pharma has taken over the role of the drugs; the test tube babies etc have intensified the organized attack on the family. The cutting off of all responsibility from actions is the typical way in which the shadow is cut off.  

Another eastern guru which has gained plenty acclaim in the west in this context is Osho. This excerpt below is from The Hindu Times:

"Osho, Bhagwan Rajneesh or simply Rajneesh was one of the most controversial spiritual leaders of 20th century. He found divinity in sexuality and allegedly taught his disciples, to follow free sex as a way to nirvana.
Blending Tantra, Zen, and Western psychotherapy into his teachings, Osho's message appealed to people who were either looking for experimentation, for hedonistic pleasures or came from disturbed, broken family backgrounds."

This generation was completely derailed with free sex and anything goes... It was not only the beginning of the destruction (like the Atom) of the real nuclear family unit as the basic building block of reality and society, but was the lack of foundation of what was come afterwards: a Zombie generation.

Stoned vs True Bliss

Here below is added a link to a video presentation of the well known Graham Hancock, which illustrates the bliss out program installed in the 60's, with his own case. Like we see with all these cases this program never really stopped. It only evolved and became stronger. Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Hancock's formative years were spent in India. In the video below he shares a personal encounter with death during an Ayahuasca induced NDE, which prompted him to stop the use of marihuana immediately. He had used marihuana for 24 years. The Ayahuasca NDE lead him to an encounter with what he called mother Ayahuasca. She told him the path he was on, his abuse of marihuana; his never changing inflated behavior, would inevitably lead to annihilation after death.

After death, mother Ayahuasca revealed, he would be found wanting, in what the Egyptians referred to as a court for final judgment, the hall of Osiris. This drug use, bliss out scheme installed in the 60's was later taken over by the unholy alliance between psychiatry & Big Pharma. Graham says Ayahuasca could never be used as a drug for fun, because it makes one very sick, and I add induces a NDE. After his return to the UK he never used marihuana again. The marihuana withdrawal made him a nicer, more creative person he says. This is because he stopped blissing-out.

Real Shamans use Ayahuasca in real rituals and not for fun or blissing out or thus running from the shadow. It is also made in the brain as DMT which is not accessible to the split stoned mind. Shadow work, is as painful as using Ayahuasca because it entails also a painful kind of life review back to all the places we have cut off. Therefore touching the shadow connects us to Self and I believe what is experienced as the somatic correlate of the numinousity (wholeness) of the Self: endogenous DMT. This is what in dreams connects us to the Mother (Sophia) which I believe is the same Mother Graham refers to here.

What Graham relates, is an encounter with the collective unconscious which is really the Judge or the Sophia (Lady Justice), and is absolutely no fun whatsoever because everything concealed for our whole life to ourselves is uncovered. Before reaching back to Paradise we must undergo this life-review which is a NDE and the only image really catching it is the true crucifixion or being impaled on a stake. We can not get back in the Kingdom unless we remember childhood, not bliss out from it. That blissing out approach jump started in the 60's is the yellow brick road to the underworld false emerald city which is fully digital or fake and lacking any reality to it.  Right here we have the two time lines, one heading back to the lost Kingdom and the other heading to the underworld.

The deeper we go toward the collective unconscious the more painful it becomes especially if we haven't processed and assimilated the shadow. There's no other way to reenter Eden. Those who truly survive the life review of the shadow work, which is indeed Judgement day, are in their dreams returning to the trees of life. Toward bifurcation we will start to see these collective dreams as real, which is the direct experience of Self and what we now see as dream. But this is also so for the false time line and those on it. This is the convergence of space time with where u are at in ur dreams or thus at the level of the collective unconscious. Therefore what we are doing now is on us, as simple as that because Judgement day has begun collectively at this end of cycle. 

Apocalypse: Uncovering the World Shadow

The danger with exogenous Ayahuasca is that as Graham says such a life review all in one and thus judgement can be too much to handle. It can take years to uncover and digest the total shadow in the dreams. But this is what is now occurring collectively. The dreams say we are in Judgement day.

The dreams do this in a very gradual way so we can fully digest what comes up. Being thrown into it can cause psychosis. This is basically what is happening in the world: the uncovering of all the filth at once coming up out of the sewer system in very high places yet implicating everyone. As in Graham's experience we are ending up by the same place we left off before the Fall from Eden which is where the indigenous still are. But there are now two options.

Toward the end of the book of revelation, which ends back at the portals of Eden where we left off, we find a final Judgement taking place, very much like in Graham's experience but collectively. This correlates with the end of a uroboric precession cycle which would also be thus the return to Eden after this descent.

In the collective dreams we have found a collective court process has begun. This coheres with the meaning of the Apocalypse, which is the uncovering of the world shadow. We are witnessing the coming out of all or uncovering of all that has been concealed at the highest places and everywhere. 

The apocalypse in someone's life is when all of the concealed shadow returns at the end or at some crucial point. This can mean the end of someone, or if they accept what is coming up and truly deal with it and come clean etc., there can be redemption. This same coming out of the shadow (all that has been hidden and concealed) like a Tsunami is happening collectively and this is what the court case in the collective unconscious means. All of the corruption and secrets are coming out, they are trying but will not be able to hide the evidence. 

The false timeline is trying to imitate the true time line. Their cyber neon green Emerald city will be the imitation of the true Garden of Eden. Given the Illuminati cards, the last cards are being played now, because everything is coming out... everything. They have to play the last cards. Which thus also means that the bifurcation is not far away.           

Judgement Day 1: Everything concealed is coming out

Explanation of Judgement Day in terms of the shadow :

Looks like the embargo on the shadow has been lifted.
A lot of deeply repressed and concealed info is coming out and fast.
We must weather it to get to the next level.
We must dare to see ourselves naked.
 It will be very painful but it will heal us from our hypocrisy at which core lies our splitness. No more 2 faces. No more cosmetics and blissing out in ignorance, just sober bare nakedness.
We must look at ourselves now. The time has come!
Nothing can stop this wave.... which is flooding the very foundations of the current world order ...

Earth Shadow Dream Poem

I was singing this in the dream of someone I was helping with touching the shadow.

The Shadow of the World

Flows through the veins of the Earth;

and without in the desert.

In our dreams and her roars,

we have to bear,

how this shadow in the Rose

comes and goes.

Within the bones

And without in the desert.

Audio Podcast: We Are Entering a New World (28 min)

Depth Psychological Interpretation of 'Black Swan'

This film depicts the main mental epidemic the whole modern world is going through and will be increasingly. This girl is totally devoid/split off of her shadow side, the black swan. The director exquisitely catches how while she fee... It's is a conspiracy against her, and the audience is taken along in this paranoia, it is all along she herself, her shadow, that is taking over the white swan. Her unconscious is conspiring to get rid of the white swan. Yet she is lost in her projections of her shadow on this shady girl who perfectly fits that bill of her own dark swan. Yet it is she herself that ends up killing her white swan pole, in order that the shadow side can take center stage. It is really a master piece which captures the main mental drama of the West. 




But so far indeed this story of the modern mind doesn't end good. There's no re-union of the 2 sides. Yet it is a high fidelity representation of how the western/modern world is having a psychotic episode. After many many years of practice with the problem of the shadow... This film really nails it. 
Films are dreams and we are in dire need of addressing this problem and and thus imagining and making films where there's some level of reconciliation with the shadow if this modern world is to survive itself.

Dying Birds & The Observation Problem

d problem of environmental pollution & dying birds/bees/fish etc., in terms of the observation problem: the observer tends 2 erroneously experience himself separate from what he is observing. what we direly fail 2 c when we speak of environmental damage/pollution etc is that whatever we c being done 2 d environment is also being done onto us. it is literally a reflection of what is being done onto us by ourselves.

A heart attack is a crime of passion

A heart attack is a crime of passion.

only here it is a part of us (♥), who attacks us from within...

It is an attack of the shadow.

We have let ourselves be induced by science into a very solar understanding of the body and conned from the deeper meaning of things/organs etc.

I just told my son who is in high school. They teach you all a day/sun version of things but at night a less graspable version of the same things comes out, which science pretends does not exist.

But often is not very happy with us. The great Nobel man Wolfgang Pauli of the study of the atom referred to it as the spirit in matter...others as the ghost in the atom. In his dreams she would attack him.

Today i saw a dream of a man in which she (his shadow) emerged and not happy with him and toward the end of the dream she was next to him and told him: "... this was not a dream.

Dream Synchronicity with X-MEN ORIGINS

On 6-nov-2010 at 4:44 a Facebook friend sent me this Q on my Facebook friend wall: 

"Do you know of any fictional authors or stories that deal with the
governing myth? Like in your Psychotropics, Memory Control & The
Governing Myth: the Return of Christ/s video.
If so that would be awesome."


 

That night I had the following dream: I am standing with or in front of a woman (who I also assist with my work/method of touching the shadow). While standing in front of her... like wooden picks start coming out of my thumb. But on them also like little hooks of blades. They are wooden. We take them out and make like circles or wheels on her dress (white). It is only afterwards I kept meditating on this scene of these blades coming out of my nails of my hand/fingers that i realized that this was actually a scene of wolverine of the movie X-MEN. 

In one of the trailer there is exactly the scene of the dream. I haven't seen this latest version of the movie yet. But was totally amazed at the scene where is said to Wolverine: "Become the animal" and "Embrace the other side". This is exactly my method called touching the shadow where we have to embrace the side we have rejected in ourselves. It is when he embraces his shadow that these powers of wolverine are unleashed. The coincidence is that this is exactly what is meant with and in The Governing Myth; the Return of Christ/s video. This is an incredible synchronicity for this is the X-MEN ORIGINS movie and these powers are unleashed, is shown here, when the side of us we are most rejecting is touched/embraced. This is how the X-MEN (mutants) are created and how it all started. 

In more extensive trailer is shown how Wolverine goes about training and recruiting other mutants to form a special team... which also strongly correlates with the building of a quantum community - see side bar of my/this page..., and which hitherto is what the idea and video of the the governing myth; the return of christ/s was based on in the first place.

Rumi on Projection

Fear for Yourself

Everyone's death is of the same quality
as himself;
to the enemy of God, an enemy;
to the friend of God, a friend.
Your fear of death in fleeing from it
is really your fear for yourself.
Pay attention, dear Soul!

Meditating With Open eyes & The Shadow

Touching the shadow (the practice) is really a meditation with open eyes. When unaware of our projection we are actually caught in the projection and tend to believe it to be real. Yet becoming aware of the projection is basically stepping outside the bubble of that content or thought that is projected versus being engulfed or encapsulated by it when not aware that it is a projection.

When aware of the projection we also thus become aware that the thought or content isn't true. In this way we can remove ourselves from that content. In this way and quite similar to meditation with closed eyes, which is depicted as going in between the thoughts, when practicing touching the shadow we basically sojourn between our thoughts (contents) if you wish -only now it is done and achieved with open eyes-. In a prior blog this space between the thoughts has been referred to as superposition while in other traditions it is also referred to as the "Now" (Eckhart Tolle).

Fractured Thought

The moment someone makes a fracture in the thought he is thinking, this fracture opens the door of his life, without him knowing this, to friction. And wherever there is friction automatically there is resistance. Strange is that when someone makes a fracture in the thought that he is thinking, he thinks more about the part of the fraction that makes him turn cold. And the more he thinks now the colder he gets, until at a certain point his own thinking freezes him completely.

It is difficult for someone that is frozen, to escape by himself from that side of the fraction because in order for him to escape he has to change his perspective toward the other side of the fraction, which is the side that automatically lights a fire in him, and keeps heating him up from within until he aids the fire to accomplish its mission. The mission for which the fire was lit.

Illusions & Projections

Illusions are basically referring to experience within the matrix of the relative. Like time, it cannot be measured without space and vice versa. Yet as the definition of relative clearly states; the relative is the contrary of the absolute. Absolute means perfect, complete or pure; hence the relative is polluted and dirty. It is something or some value or experience which is only considered or exists in comparison to something else. In this sense it has no inner or intrinsic value. It is done for external reasons versus for its own sake, en esse. In this sense it is a cloned reality or an image, not the real thing. The relative is always dependent on something else for its own value. The synonym of relative is dependent and in this sense it is the opposite of the real individual. It is conditioned and thus like a chameleon changes given the conditions it is in and thus it is not unconditional. In this sense it is always subject to fear or bribery; compromised. In terms of a personality we refer to it as false for it is one face in front of this person and the opposite in front of the other. It contradicts itself. In this sense of its definition as being proportionate; it is what we refer to as the shadow or the resonance of the bright side.

I always perceive the other relative to the state I am in. In this sense when not at-one with my shadow I am the proportion. I am caught in a matrix of relativity which is referred to below as the world or desert of illusions. If I am too hot I will experience the other as too cold. If I am full I will experience the glass as half empty while if am down I will see everything as too big for me (the glass is half full). I have no way of ever knowing what the glass is if I’m caught in resistance and thus in relativity. That is as long as I generate a shadow (resist). Only when I’m free of resistance and thus between too much and too little, when I contain the shadow, can I experience the glass beyond relativity.

Here what I experience is that I am the glass. The matrix of relativity veils me from a deeper reality where I am one with the glass. Space and time is here traded for non-locality which is referred to as the concept of eternal and spiritual. In this sense when we touch the shadow we connect to absolute silence and truth and unconditional love. We see the pain in the other for we have also seen it in us. This approach vis-à-vis the relative materialistic approach to medicine was depicted in a dream as: “At the end of the dream started to feel incredible love for this/these sick/blind people: agape love.” The proxy reality of the illusion veils us from this deeper reality which we can only know first handedly.

Glued in Contradiction

The real problem is not keeping the other honest, but self deception. We are unaware of the contradiction we are glued in. As long as we remain split in below mentioned two poles/persons, we tend to be caught in contradictions yet remain unaware of this. In terms of above mentioned message one side of us thinks he is curious and inquisitive while he hides the side and opposite that is terribly closed minded. What makes it difficult to recognize the contradiction we are caught in is that the side we least want to be (the shadow), which we yet also are, is projected on the other. In other words the inner contradiction or conflict is played out and experienced via the other. A woman tells her daughter: “you can’t think that I’m the kind of mother which looks on and enjoys the daughter’s pain…” Another older woman who feels terribly insecure and afraid to be at home alone (when her husband is abroad) tells her son upon suggesting that her grandson sleep over by her: “I don’t want him to think he has to babysit me.” This is a projection and basically a side of her is saying this to herself. Her rejected more secure and self-confident side is basically telling herself this and in somewhat sarcastic terms. The first woman is basically accusing herself she is looking on and doing nothing to help her daughter.

Another man goes on and on about his businesses and money and how important it is for him to have his financial affairs in place etc, and at that point says: “I hope you’re not thinking I am materialistic”. In both cases this is the shadow basically replying and responding to the dominant opposite side or self which has gone into somewhat extreme degrees. Here what is really happening is that one side is basically calling/accusing the other of being a materialist, a sadist and a ‘baby’. Yet this inner contradiction or debate is not caught within but another is blamed for “seeing” or thinking he is a materialist…

In this sense the way we feel the other is thinking about us is basically the way we are thinking of our self. For instance when someone projects anger onto the other it can be construed as a part of us which is looking onto the deceiver in us, so to speak, is angry at our self or the deceiver. There’s always a part of us looking onto ourselves. We get this often for instance when we feel others envy us or are jealous of us; or also when we feel others hate us because we are so great, successful etc. This is also a side of us which is at odds with ‘the monster’ (the inflated side) and is bent on bringing him down. This is of course the dynamic underlying conflicts and fights. I will fight the projection in the other. Yet we cannot kill the shadow. Full excising of the shadow leads to our own demise.

If we could become aware of the projection and thus re-take it we would be able to enter into an inner debate and dialog which could eventually lead to a compromise of sorts. The materialistic side would be cross fertilized by the more idealistic or social side and in that form the materialistic penchant could be countered and a form of balance or synergy could ensue. The same goes for the woman suffering from great insecurity. Yet when the other is blamed for feeling (actually us feeling) materialistic: 1. we can remain in denial of the extent of our one sidedness and 2. We don’t own and accept the side that the dominant person/pole in us is rejecting and fighting in the other.

The big problem is that this part of us that is at odds with the dominant side returns in different forms to terrorize and boycott the plans of the deceiver in us. This becomes the root of self-sabotage, disease and accidents in our life. In the life of the great physicist Wolfgang Pauli, the “demon” or shadow would return in his dreams as a figure strongly at odds with Pauli’s physics and which would be setting places afire which would be associated with this physics. But also outside of his dreams a term was coined for the weird accidents which would occur when Pauli would come around physics labs and such sort places. The term was the Pauli-effect. It is necessary to unite in one sole existence.

Marie Louise Von Franz on Touching the Shadow - video transcript

"If not more people try to reflect and take back their projections,
and take the opposite within themselves, there will be a total destruction.
There are a lot of people who go through life and the unconscious is not a reality to them.
They say at breakfast 'I had a funny dream', and in the afternoon they know nothing about it.
But if we paint them and interpret them and think about them, the dream becomes real.
And that's why you need to be lonely so the unconscious becomes stronger.
It's like loading up the unconscious and than it manifests.

Hermes Trismegistus

Hermes Trismegistus said in one active imagination to an alchemist: "I am the friend to whoever is lonely".

We have now preceding the man who pours water into the fish.
Now the fish is the Unconcious; so we have to support the unconscious.
It's not enough to just have it.
We have to actively turn toward it and support it, so that it then helps us.

Jung once said: "The toads and the frogs are god's first attempt to make man on a cold-blooded level. And then he didn't quite succeed, so he kept the idea in mind." 

There are many people are not in analysis but they are naturally gifted, which I would call:
They are honest.And they find these things without analysis.
I have lived in this tower for 8 weeks alone without speaking one word to anybody.
And I sometimes thought I was going off my head.
But the unconscious became alive. It was my path.

Jung: "There are no other similar beings like man. That thus are articulate and conscious; can give account for their functioning".

Listening To Me Talking To Myself

We are constantly talking to ourselves via others. When talking to the other we tacitly see a part of us we prefer not to see within. A woman tells me: "You will tell me I'm a materialist...but ...and she continues to tell me how for her material security etc is of great importance." This is a part of her that she is experiencing in me; or thus projecting on me. This is the part of herself which feels she hangs too much to the materialistic side. Yet she prefers to not see this side in herself, and hence ends up experiencing it via me. Her less materialistic side she is projecting on me and hence subsequently blames me for her feeling materialistic. This leads to not owning the too materialistic bent and to rejecting the less materialistic side within.

This inner talk or (here) conflict is constantly raging in us; yet there's no way to solve the conflict if the person remains unaware of the fact that it is in them. The point is that there's one side of us that is at odds with our dominant side. When listening yet more closely to ourselves and others we find the conflict before it is projected. A woman wearing much higher high heals than accustomed to, says she is afraid of having heard a voice in her tell her, while she was walking down a stairway, that she will fall and break her neck. This side could also be played out in terms of projecting on the husband that he doesn't want her to wear high heals.

Yet here we catch it before it is projected. This shadow side or demon can toward extreme conflict in the person literally attack itself. A woman once reported that in front of a stop light she had all intention to step on the breaks and that her leg out of its own stepped on the gas ramming into the car in front of her. But it can also react to us in our body as for instance a man who is overly active in wanting and demanding too much sex from his wife turns impotent. A man wanted to give a hand in a funeral ended up kissing the family member of the deceased person.

If we listen fast enough to the shadow (unconscious), it can make us extremely proactive in using the shadow to create great balance in us. For what this voice of opposition in us is actually trying to achieve is to curb our one-sidedness. Only, toward extreme one-sidedness it reacts in an equally extreme form. But when we truly listen to it and give real consequence to it; that is act upon it; it becomes an incredible tool and compass in creating balance in our own behavior and decisions. Yet more pro-actively we catch it in our dreams, which is where it first emerges only to subsequently play itself out during the day. When this is done it leads to a shift in outlook where we stop being reactive and realize we are creating the patterns we keep stuck in.

So the way we feel the other is looking at us is a part of the way we are looking at ourselves.

Purpose of Blog

This first entry is to briefly state what the blog is about. 

First of all this blog is a log book which records thoughts regarding the practice of catching projections or touching the shadow.  

The shadow is a concept which emerged with Carl G. Jung representing a part of us which tends to stay under the radar. It emerges in the way we perceive others in terms of projections, but also as an active force (and part of us) which keeps us honest. The nature of these entries will be personal short musings and ruminations regarding the nature of the shadow.
