Why You Have to Be Lonely • Marie-Louise von Franz • Commentary by T.J.Aion

Описание: Welcome, brothers and sisters, to the Jungian Aion.

This Jungian piece explores why solitude is essential for a conscious relationship with the Self, rooted in Carl Jung’s psychology. We'll hear Marie-Louise von Franz on the “temple that takes centuries to build”, followed by a personal journey through dreams that shows how the psyche tries to initiate the ego into wholeness through images.

Marie-Louise von Franz illustrates this process through a detailed analysis of a flight attendant's dreams. These dreams reveal a path from weightlessness and evasion to confronting the prison of an ungrounded life, integrating the shadow by facing personal flaws instead of projecting them outwards, and finally, directly addressing the inner critic, the animus, by understanding that negative thoughts are not the whole self and need not be believed. Through faithful inner work, the ego gains weight, the soul speaks clearly, and the personal stone finds its place in the larger collective building.

With Love and Gratitude,
Avi
