Top Comments of this video!! :3
5:42 The anima is the archetype of life and when it is negative, the impulse is to dream about life and to make wishful fantasies about life, instead of living life. It is as if a vampire is sucking one’s blood, the blood being our life activity. Such people sink into passivity, feel constantly tired and do not want to do anything, one wakes up depressed and nothing means anything.
Thank you for this. I have been feeling quite lifeless recently.

Animate: Jung inspired lyrics by Neil Peart
"POLARIZE ME
SENSITIZE ME
CRITICIZE ME
CIVILIZE ME
COMPENSATE ME
ANIMATE ME
COMPLICATE ME
ELEVATE ME
Goddess in my garden
Sister in my soul
Angel in my armor
Actress in my role
Daughter of a demon-lover
Empress of the hidden face
Priestess of the pagan mother
Ancient queen of inner space
Spirit in my psyche
Double in my role
Alter in my image
Struggle for control
Mistress of the dark unconscious
Mermaid of the lunar sea
Daughter of the great enchantress
Sister to the boy inside of me
My counterpart — my foolish heart
A man must learn to rule his tender part
A warming trend — a gentle friend
A man must build a fortress to defend
A secret face — a touch of grace
A man must learn to give a little space
A peaceful state — a submissive trait
A man must learn to gently dominate`"

this is pretty fantastic content. had never seen the Jungian philosophy or understanding of things fleshed out in an essentially logical but still kind of fantastic/mystical way.
it sounds like Jung laid out a fairly specific path towards the goal of individuation, but nobody seems to use or teach that as a "system" of any kind.

the discussion on anima hit close to home.
my mother and i had always had a difficult relationship, with the last year or so being the most challenging and resulted in me choosing to no longer stay in contact with her. i grew up without a father and had to take the brunt of her volatile behavior, was filling me with uncertainty and a depressive outlook on the world; irritable towards other and insecure with myself (i’ve gotten much better on the insecurity, still have some trouble with the others). we constantly fought and it felt like i was never able to fully express myself to her or have a healthy relationship with her, specifically due to her choosing her romantic interests over me. this caused me to retreat into my psyche and create worlds for myself to explore so that i wouldn’t have to face this reality, as well as get into reading philosophy and studying psychology + comparative politics at university to study systems and theory as well as have an understanding of the human mind. nowadays i’m an extremely private and introverted individual, with my inner world always functioning.
reading through other comments, it’s bizarre how many other people who experienced similar situations have the same mental outcomes from a negative mother-child relationship. for me personally, detaching myself from her was the best decision i could’ve made and not having either parent in my life has only brought me peace and feels like the beginning of a new era in my life; truly like reaching the top of a mountain and gazing upon the scenery of the world. i’m not sure if anyone else has gone through this situation and has felt the same way, but my main point is that you don’t have to let your past define your present. i feel like a new being and more free than ever before after letting go of the negativity that had plagued my life for so long.
these videos are so thought provoking, love that i get to spend my nights watching these and ponder on the concepts of human reality + philosophy.
edits: any language that portrayed that i was saying these experiences are only experienced by males and/or sons; more gender-neutral language- this experience is not confined to males and/or sons exclusively; while most (if not all) Jungian psychology is based of the concept of binaries and dichotomies, my perception of these “energies” is that the archetypes presented in much of Jungian psychology are much more an attempt to classify the conscious and unconscious into 2 opposing ends of a tug-of-war between energies that exist within all of us, rather than categorize them between innate characteristics of males/men and/or females/women.

Recently I started to compare men to Robocop and women to The Terminator. A man: rugged and armored on the outside, soft human flesh on the inside. A woman: soft flesh on the outside, titanium endoskeleton on the inside. If you seen how a gentle kind and good-natured woman can be absolutely ruthless you'll know what I'm talking about

A poetic interpretation-
If I feel my mother’s eyes,
Burn into my brain,
The pain and fear and loathing,
Comes back again, again...
But if I look through her eyes,
While knowing that I’m me,
How much power is there,
To set this person free...
Remembered fear and pain,
Of the one we need to love,
From the womb to adolescence,
Disconnected push and shove...
In the shadow of awareness,
We find the archetypal entity,
Subtle twists of the subconscious,
Opposing sexuality...
The stranger in the shadows,
Seeks oneness with what we are,
Can we walk as one together?
Or do we fight to be apart?
Can our psyche host a twin?
A mirrored version of ourselves?
In perfect opposition,
Can the mind’s unconscious meld?
Created in our own image,
The anima and animus,
In conflict is damnation,
In acceptance finding peace...

EXCELLENT summary/explanation of the Anima/Animus archetypes!!!!
For people that would like to learn more about the Anima/Animus, there are two very good books:
1) "The Invisible Partners; How the Male and Female in each of Us Affects our Relationships" by John A. Sanford
2) "Animus and Anima, Two Essays" by Emma Jung

The dance between anima (archetype of life) and animus (archetype of meaning) is indispensable for individuation. :_eternalIPoM: Subscribe to newsletter: eternalisedofficial.com/subscribe Become a Patron (exclusive content): www.patreon.com/eternalised YouTube Member (exclusive content): youtube.com/channel/UCqos1tl0RntucGGtPXNxkkA/join Official Merch: eternalised.creator-spring.com/ Donate a Coffee: ko-fi.com/eternalised Transcript and artwork gallery: eternalisedofficial.com/2022/01/21/anima-and-animu… Thanks a lot to my Patrons: Ryon Brashear, Jeanette, john cochran, Jay B, Reuben Markham, Evangelos Barakos, Mr X
