051 - On Relationships
“All our split-off parts return, all the people we meet in life who have a fascination influence upon us are really split-off parts of ourselves, things we have repressed which are brought back by other people, and that is the great value and the great danger and difficulty of human relationship.” - C.G. JungWho we meet and befriend is not random, it follows a deep psychological drive that is likely completely unknown to us. There is something there that could lead to a transformation of our whole personality.Find my work on Linktree: https://linktr.ee/cgjunghelpdeskSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/c-g-jung-helpdesk/donations
050 - Rebirth & Resurrection
“In the symbol of the dying and resurrecting god, man expressed a psychological phenomenon into which he projected himself at a time when, emotionally, he was still identical with nature. But through development he became aware that it was not the spring outside, it was the spring or the vanishing of spring in himself which concerned him.” C.G. JungThe beginning is the end. On death follows rebirth.Find my work on Linktree: https://linktr.ee/cgjunghelpdeskSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/c-g-jung-helpdesk/donations
049 - Physics & Numbers
“Comparing modern psychology with modern physics is not just empty talk. Despite their diametrically opposed fields, both disciplines have one highly significant point in common: both approach the previously “transcendental” sphere of the invisible and untouchable, the world of pure analogical thinking.” - C.G. JungJung’s relationship to physics is more profound that most people know. Starting with his friendship with the world famous physicists Albert Einstein and Wolfgang Pauli to his mythological insights into the psychological significance of numbers.Find my work on Linktree: https://linktr.ee/cgjunghelpdeskSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/c-g-jung-helpdesk/donations
048 - On Irrationality
“Completeness belongs to the nature of your best effort; it must contain the irrational as well as the rational, the unconscious as well as the conscious attempt. Therefore magic means are often exceedingly grotesque. Think of the magic medicine of the Middle Ages, for instance, or the secrets of the alchemical kitchen, or the contents of magic amulets-like the ground-up bones of a bat-it all seems the sheerest nonsense, but that simply proves the sincerity of the effort. And the means are legitimate inasmuch as they represent acknowledgment of assistance from the other side.” - C.G. JungThe world is more than we see and understand, to allow in things that might not fit or seem confusing is the other side of the coin. Jung made this experience at his midpoint in life and what started by him building castles of sand, just as he did as a child, led to him changing the field of psychology.Find my work on Linktree: https://linktr.ee/cgjunghelpdeskSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/c-g-jung-helpdesk/donations
047 - Movie Analysis: Scarface
“An anima relationship is never a normal relationship, but always something fantastical. A man sees his female face in the anima, and that is dangerous; the anima transforms everything it touches. Wherever it is active, it visualizes one’s own image, a man’s own image, and this is his female being, an invisible minority that he carries inside himself.” C.G. JungA man’s drive comes from a deep place and can wreak havoc on him and his surroundings when he can not keep it in check. The 1983 movie Scarface tells the story of such a man and his downfall.Find my work on Linktree: https://linktr.ee/cgjunghelpdeskSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/c-g-jung-helpdesk/donations
