Carl Gustav Jung – Man and his Symbols (19xx)
Carl Gustav Jung – The Psychology of Kundalini Yoga (1932)
My three archetypes; the beginning phase of self-mastery.
1. The fool, the center as well as the circumference, zero, beige
2.The High Priestess, Luna, double-dueled, the flux of all reflux
3. Mandala, Exactness, Time, Infinite, Balanced, Serendipity, the place where all the secrets happen
The kingfisher or halcyon; the primal fire or the beast that resides within.
The symbol that represents Carl G. Jung in my mind. The halcyon days or the
calm, quiet days that allow creation and life to cycle with the currents and winds.
The one week out of a year that guarantees this exactness. Stability, faith, love, and
the divine forces outside of our control. The Paradoxes of our time.
This is my pen art. It results from a trance like automation
that allows my unconscious being to peek through just enough so that I may
begin the beginning phases that will break upon my central reality.
Another one of my automated pen art drawings
Pen art….get the idea that I am completely on idol when this happening; not a
single thinking thought slips through my consciously aware mind
My form of a mandala; pen art
Pen art inspired by Jungian concepts of freeing the ego-shadow from the
entrapments of the living mind

The Theory of Archetypes was a life saviour for me as 24yr old man, every school should teach it I was lost until then.
I like the reflection this has on the Tarot, embedded in the Classics I studied, and the instructive oral tradition, the need we have for informative song and recreation; mmm.
Aside ~ it was strange was given a deck, and still have it, by an old lady one day..
Serendipity you are an inspiration, thank you humbly.

Jung is massively undervalued in today’s trends. His words and life’s work changed my life! I owe him a huge piece of myself.

Dear edr,
i remember being very irritated at Jung, reading him early in my reading life say, “i never was attached to any individual.” it seems so cold.
Now, after a lot of Buddhist influence, i come back and read attachment differently, read it as “wanting to control” or needing someone in a certainway irrespective of what happens in a relationship.
Now, i think i can listenand align with others better, pay attention and notice without being attached. Laugh more, cry more, worry less. Not sure. ….. and you? you give life to the concept of letting go of ego and letting art… or letting flow….Thank you.

Jung has been my muse for years now…every time I read one of his books I am inspired and refreshed. He had a god-mark that somehow transformed stories and words into simple truths.

And the dawn left a surprise for the king fisher…
A labyrinth for all its demise for each wisher…
The shadow of the sun walked into the morn…
