WILD Insight- Taming of the Shrew- Shakespeare : Spoiler Alert – At the end the Lady Shrew bends down in supplication to her king, and makes the other women do likewise- Teaching that SHE had learned and become humble- she was already STRONG, but she was not humble- sometimes breaking oneself like a Horse is the only way to Tame the EGO- the EGO is the SHREW!
I was too caught up in the Gender Roles- to see through the mask of Ego- boy vs girl, War of the Sexes- Is merely to find out- “Who Loves Who More?” When the left and right hemispheres are in Balance- a Baby is born in the middle, my children, a Baby of Light- we call the Gateway, or the Third Eye. Here is to ALL/ONE!
“IF YOU WANT TO KISS THE SKY, BETTER LEARN HOW TO KNEEL” Mysterious Ways U2
A Poem about the missing “Maiden” aspect of the human psyche.
Contrary to the trinity, this theory explains four parts. Jung spoke of the conscious, the unconscious, the anima/animus, the “gateways” to higher states of consciousness.
I understood the psyche as a trinity- conscious, subconscious and “super conscious” as the gateway through the third eye (pineal gland). My Anima is a mirror reflection of my ego, which reaches enlightenment along with my conscious self, the Anima being someone who “lives in my head” but not a different part of my psyche.
As a master of the Tarot I easily identified YHVH- a name for God, as the court cards of the Tarot. I understand the King is my conscious ego self, the Queen is my Animus, the Knight many would say the knight represents the “son” of God, the Maiden is my inner magickal child (fairy).
This poem was written while channeling.
I’ve got a royal family in my head
The king of the Y- the father of time
The Queen of the H- the mother of the line
The Knight of the V- the brother to see
The Princess of the H- The young feminine psyche
Together my psyche spells YHVH
Father mother son daughter
The four parts of my mind
I have been living in a trinity
Incomplete, unknown to me
I found there is more than just the three
I have rescued the maiden from obscurity
Giving her life through word and deed
Making her conscious, breathing her back to reality,
Weaving her story through me,
Three times three so mote it be
Arise Maiden of the psyche!
Walk again in the hearts of men
Inspire the Artist once more,
Abstract muse of poetic lore
Strike your blade, open the door
As Queen Kali lays waste to the old forms
The old Gods cannot weather the storm
Princess bring us fresh mythologies of astral technologies
The first illustration depicts the psychology we are born with. The negative light of the subconscious and the positive light of the conscious.
Next we have your idea of God or Creatrix energy which connects to your higher self (spiritual self). The Higher Self then “Manifests” in the form of the two “Minds”, the mind of form (conscious) and the mind of understanding (subconscious).
Between the mind of Form (conscious) and the mind of Understanding (subconscious) is a Shadow. This is “THE SHADOW”. The shadow can manifest in your life as Drama, Pain, or at it’s most basic- Fear. The shadow is a negative reflection caused by ignorance.
The Subconscious and the Consciousness are “connected” by the Pineal gland.
The Pineal gland contains water, this water causes reflection like a mirror between the conscious and subconscious. The shadow of ignorance is over the mirror of the pineal.
The Positive and Negative forces of the mind cause friction on the shadow eventually Illuminating the shadow into right Understanding or the Balanced Tao of Psychology.
Oversimplified? Yes, call it Hermetic. The shadow is possibly responsible for the cultural concept of “Evil”.
Devil, D-Evil, D-Veil (the veil is the shadow over the Pineal).
As we consciously work on healing our psyche from past trauma and old patterns we are working out the shadow and bringing in the light. When the Mirror of the Pineal Gland is cleansed we can see straight through into the subconscious without Fear reflecting back at us. (When you smile the mirror smiles, when you frown so does the mirror)
Even with a partially cleansed shadow we can see the Anima/Animus within. In the book “Love Magick” by Laurie Cabot there is a guided meditation on how to meet your Inner Other.
Recent visions of Hermes have explained that I have a “black glass” through which to see into the darkness. I researched “A glass darkly”. I think Hermes was telling me that I had tempered the Shadow into a slick glass state from which I can perceive into the darkness without the illumination to see darkness in its truer state.
I am still discovering the wonderful world of my Animus as my vision of him has gone from Dracula to Buddha. I am allowed to Understand more my inner nature as I explore with the hermits lamp deep in the subconscious realm.
HEALING Poem from awakening 2005
I wrote this during a spiritual emergence this is about a perfect night in spirit land- this poem holds a heavy healing vibration. Enjoy! (please comment if inclined)
I am about to post a lot of channeling on The Occultist in the Corner. As an American in a society who thinks “touched” means “crazy” I feel I must preface my spiritual channeling with a song- that describes an awakening in America.
We are all on the “hero’s” journey in our lives (like Luke from Star Wars, or say Gandhi). Our ultimate goal is to reach a state of pure wisdom & Love. “My hero’s had the heart to live their lives out on a limb” 🙂
See Joseph Campbell, Buddhism, Enlightenment, Self Actualization, and Mythology for more information.
I have always been a person out on a limb- reaching higher for knowledge. Since I have been channeling I understand to have knowledge we must let go of what we have been told to think, told to see, and told to act like. We must Discover ourselves. We must go beyond our “programming” or learned thought patterns and for me that means beyond what American Doctors label as insanity.
KORINNE
I am a psychic, I SEE and TALK to “things” and they talk back. It is that simple and true. Unlike many of my fellow psychics I will not talk to the dead… I prefer to speak with ascended masters, angels, spiritual guides- Basically those beings who know more than I do. So when I say I am a channel- I mean I speak with Gods and Masters.
Does this make me special? I wish it didn’t. I wish I could talk about my visions of Buddha with my neighbors instead of talking about the weather. I wish I could say to a stranger “Gee your aura is a little funky- do you need a hug?” Or having a stranger come up to me and say “Hey I saw Buddha last night and He told me to say Hi to you.” So does that make me special? Because from my perspective it gets lonely and alienating.
In an attempt to disentangle myself from alienation I will to share my channeling- for those who have EYES and EARS. You decide if I am a Prophet or a mad woman :).
Nay Sayers use “Reality” as the reason to be restricted. This sets up a tao dynamic of seeming opposites when you consider the perception of the visionary who’s art seems to live and breath before their eyes. The tao of mundane reality vs creative reality.
I cannot break it down into science vs religion- the tooth fairy vs lab tech. Extremes happen at each level of experience/function/form. Not all anything is anything- we are all one and we are all unique. Oneness is eternal- individuality is dimensionally time based.
One side states our world and reality are fixed- like a clock, we are all toy soldiers who carry genes, etc. through a mechanism called time. There is no reason nor point to life- only to continue the chain of existence.
The other side states that we are all one, we are eternal, we are what we call God manifest in the third dimension (where perception is based on the rules of time/space and dimension.). Our universe is the story book we live in as human characters on the stage of life. Reality is mutable in nature – magick is real.
Finding out what side of that fence you are on is one of the first steps toward evolution of consciousness. If you find yourself on the Fixed side of the fence- I do not know how to find you, I simply do not know where that place is.
If you find you have created in your life- brought something new to our world that was not here before you came- such as a piece of art, song lyrics, your performance in a play, a dance recital, public ritual- or that interesting cup of tea you mixed today. These are some simple ways we become creators in this play of life. (Advanced students can create their own reality according to their highest will.)
Maybe you have never landed on the moon, but you have been there in your mind- mental experiences so mirror actual physical ones that there are parts of our consciousness that cannot tell the difference between the two. That being a fact imagine, remember all the places you have been in your mind, all the conversations, the dreams, the intensity, the peace.
Now shift your focus to your heart- the home of our feelings. If the mind thinks then surely the heart feels. Just like the mind it stores memories, scenes, and wishes. Take your time and ask your heart what it remembers from the past.
The physical experiences (REALITY) trigger the mental and emotional systems- thus giving you three ways of experiencing life. 1. Physical tactile sensory 2. Mind thought judgment 3. Heart feeling emotion.
A truly balanced life incorporates all three above notions. When the three are working in harmony with each other- the partnership creates depth in each perception. Heart can experience intuition, mind can experience cosmic consciousness or oneness, body can become a “pure vehicle”, a temple for the mind and heart.
Having the mind heart and body working in partnership brings about an alchemical change in the human- Enlightenment- to be anointed, such as Buddha or Christ. “You can do these things and more…”
I have the ability to interpret art through – let’s call it “intuition” to spare us from a lengthy explanation. Today I choose the song “Love Profusion” by Madonna. During my Kundalini awakening I connected with the video and lyrics in a very personal way, allowing me to interpret the symbols in the video and lyrics. Below you will find full lyrics – interlaced with interpretations. The video below holds the imagery I refer to within the deciphered lyrics.
First we get Madonna’s views on the world as she understands it from her experience.
There are too many questions, There is not one solution. There is no resurrection (remember this for later in the song) There is so much confusion
The Chorus:
Madonna is referring to the “Love Vibration”. As spiritual beings in physical bodies we can and do raise and lower in vibration. Chronic low vibration leads to depression and illness, chronic high vibration can lead to “mania” and confusion- OR if you have refined your Ego, constant high vibration is a sign of enlightenment. Most of us fall into the group of shifting vibrations- some days good, others not so good. Madonna is trying to tell us that SHE changes her vibration by getting in touch with the “Love Vibration”.
And the love profusion, You make me feel, You make me know
And the love vibration, You make me feel, You make it shine
Back in Dreary mundane materialistic world- in which I am sure Madonna gets her fair share of… She throws off the shackles of materialism by loosing her illusions, and wanting answers! Most of us know Madonna was studying with spiritual masters before she wrote this song.
There are too many options, There is no consolation
I have lost my illusions, What I want is an explanation
Madonna is expressing how Love makes her feel and what effect it has on her. She is not referring to romantic love or the love for another human- this is divine love as it manifests in her awareness.
And the love profusion, You make me feel
You make me know, And the love direction
You make me feel, You make me shine
You make me feel, You make me shine
You make me feel, I got you under my skin
Below again Madonna is expressing her doubts and fears about the world, feeling the real pain as she is empathic to the suffering of others. She wants a Celebration- just like she sang to us back in the 1980’s “Celebrate, Holiday” if we took a holiday (from the GAME) everyone in every nation.. yeah She wanted the Party to start early. I am referring to a philosophy that seems a new concept- the Concept that Life is a GAME and we are players upon the stage. Madonna knows this as well as anyone.
There is no comprehension, There is real isolation
There is so much destruction, What I want is a celebration
Here again Madonna is telling us she knows how to shift her “bad mood” to a good one by feeling or tuning into the Love.
And I know I can feel bad, When I get in a bad mood
And the world can look so sad, Only you make me feel good
About 1 min 26 secs into the video we see Doves flying as Madonna sings- I got you under my skin.
In an esoteric way the Dove is the symbol for peace- inner peace in this case. However I know Madonna has a mad love for Jesus (remember her Like a Prayer video?)- she is expressing that she has Jesus under her skin.
The interesting part for me is that it sounds like Madonna sings “I got TWO under my skin, I got TWO under my skin.” At first it is a whisper and she sings it louder. I can identify with having TWO under my skin as well. Part of us is Divine and part of us is “Human”- or Ego. Personality = Ego/Character Divine= God Within. “There is No Resurrection”- Meaning, we are all meant to act and be like “Jesus” or an anointed or enlightened one- we are ALL the resurrection, at least we all have the potential to achieve. In Buddhism we greet each other by saying “Namaste” which roughly translates to- The God in me recognizes the God in you.
I think Madonna is saying- Yes this world is in a sorry state, we all have to deal with that. Yet we have ways of dealing with it by REMEMBERING our DIVINITY.
This is my second day as a “blogger”. I am feeling good about reaching out to the world and disseminating knowledge to the best of my ability. I have often had issues coming up with topics to write about, always waiting until there was a question to answer… But not anymore! I am going to write what ever comes to mind, and I hope You like it.
Did you know there are 4 personalities or 4 parts of your psyche? It’s true. Dr Carl Jung categorized two aspects very well- The Anima and the Animus.
The Animus: The mirror image of the female ego, tucked inside the subconscious mind.
The Anima: The mirror image of the male ego, tucked inside the Subconscious mind.
“What does that mean?!” *chuckle* Yes it is intriguing.
I will explain Jungs theory in my own words based on my own subconscious experience.
I am a Female human. My Ego- ego means my personality- Is Female. Within my Subconscious mind I became aware a man was living in there. Yes the place I go for my dreams and my intuition was being haunted by a man.
I soon read that we label him the ANIMUS- the inner male personality that corresponds to my outer female personality. You may ask yourself- why do these “Personalities” correspond? How do these personalities have anything to do with one another?
To answer this question we must understand the nature of the subconscious and conscious mind- and how they work together. The conscious mind is mostly what you use when you are awake (unless you are a psychic). Your consciousness connects mostly to your LEFT brain- the brain that does math, grocery lists, and other mundane tasks that keep you breathing and in a body. The right brain is your intuitive mind where creativity of all kinds comes from, as well as dreams and all things in the “Other” category.
As a Personality (EGO) you work with your conscious mind to feed, bathe and cloth yourself- and worry about the neighbors and what Lady Gaga is up too.
Your Personality gets information from the subconscious in the form of dreams, feelings, empathy, amazing ideas, and synchronicity.
To meet and Talk To your inner other (for a female ego her inner self is male – for a male ego your inner self is female) you must connect your conscious (left brain) to your subconscious (right brain).
“Okay this ‘Occultist in the Corner’ just told me I have another person living inside me and to get intouch with them I have to get the two sides of my brain to communicate. This is Nuts!!”
Yes this is nuts for some people- crazy as a Loon! However this is REAL psychology, not the stuff they are teaching in school. Remember the Occult has been a science since before science was invented. So bear with me.
Again speaking from my own perspective as a female ego (just reverse the genders if you are a man okay?) my inner Male was a direct reflection of what my Ego Personality “THOUGHT” of men. Yes my thoughts of men created the form, shape and state of my Inner Male.
Think about that for one moment. What kinds of things do you tell yourself about the opposite sex? Really?
Having been a psychic counselor for 18 years I have heard it all. What bugs me the most is when ladies (most of my clients have been female) say “Men are all the same, I want love but none of them are good enough.”
What is she selling to her inner male when she makes statements like that? She is telling him that he is weak, immature, loud, or what ever gets on her nerves about “men”. These “dark” feelings toward men then get INJECTED into her inner male.
“And then what happens?”
Then the inner male begins to act out and behave as he is told too, and chaos ensues.
You see what ever state your inner Male is in- is what you will attract in a mate!
This is known as “Like Attracts Like” from the philosophy of Hermeticism.
So I know why that sweet and beautiful lady keeps running into Jerks! Yes I know the answer- Her inner male is a Gangster 🙂
When I was working on my inner male I had a dream that illustrated what shape my Animus was in:
I heard my shower running so I went to see who could be in my bathroom. I opened the curtain and I saw Marilyn Manson (rock star). He had open wounds, very pale skin and was shaking with anxiety. I stepped into the tub and nurtured him, bathing him saying everything was going to be okay.
I had to heal my inner Marilyn Manson. No small task I will tell you.
How did I heal my inner male? Through listening to him and being careful what I thought about “men in general”. The book “LOVE MAGICK” by Laurie Cabot (The official Witch of Salem) has a meditation in it to speak to your inner male. This was the only tool I needed.
I know I started this blog talking about the 4 different parts of the psyche- but I think I only have time to cover the 2 main parts.
If you read this Blog please comment & ask questions. Thank you ! Until tomorrow.
