Carl Jung's Red Book + Astrology Nothing Matches the Torment of One’s Own Way - Ep. 25
This episode follows the news of the White House super spreader event and the president and white house staffers testing positive for COVID-19.
As Jung arrives at the "portal of a great mystery" our hosts explore the various definitions of magic in Jung's Red Book, Satya speaks to Jung’s notion of individuation, the need to relinquish will power in favor of psyche, and the pain of going one’s own way. Ann Carroll speaks to Nietzsche, Will to Power, and Jung’s wrestling with Nietzsche’s “failed individuation." Satya and Carol explore the meaning of the Symbol. Satya reads from Jung’s "Psychological Types" and refers to Gandhi and Mandela’s experiences in prison. Carol shares a "decumbature" chart showing the movement of planets from the 12th House to the 1st in Jung's Chart at "The Way of the Cross." Carol discusses snakes, serpents, incubation dreams, and the image of the snake coming out of the mouth. Carol introduces Shawn Nygaard, an astrologer, to share some thoughts on the images. Satya emphasizes fantasy as Jung’s return to the feminine and offers an analogy of “the crazy girlfriend” as the neglected soul gone crazy
