Ep 99: The Necessity of Humiliation
Sunday Jan 16, 2022
Sunday Jan 16, 2022
In today's episode I discuss a few quotes on humiliation.
"To come into contact with the Self is always humiliating for the Ego." and Jung's "A victory for the Self is always a defeat for the Ego."
I discuss the threads between humiliation, humility, and being a human.
Each bring us closer to "the ground" of our being.

Ep 98: The Alchemical Albedo
Thursday Jan 13, 2022
Thursday Jan 13, 2022
Part two in our alchemical series is the albedo, the Whitening.
Given the work done on the soul so far, the Whiteness is associated with an important emergence of an alchemical liminality. This is where the material is no longer black, but is not yet reddened. Psychologically, a receptivity is emerging that catalyzes a deeper connection to the materials of the soul.
"The albedo white refers to alchemical silver as a state of consciousness that proceeds not from the soul as simply given, but from the work done upon it” (Hillman, 1993, p. 77).

Ep 97: The Alchemical Nigredo
Sunday Jan 09, 2022
Sunday Jan 09, 2022
In today's episode I discuss the first of the three phases of the alchemical process, the nigredo, the blackening.
This Blackness is the alchemical nigredo containing the outdated ruling principles of the ego. These are dissolving in the solutio.
“Right at the beginning you meet the “dragon,” the chthonic spirit, the “devil,” or, as the alchemists called it, “the blackness,” the nigredo, and this encounter produces suffering… In the language of the alchemists, matter suffers until the nigredo disappears” (Jung & McGuire, 1987, p. 228).
