Join us for multidimensional experience:
Cosmic Mother and Father codes The Science of Ascension Ascension means many things to many people, but wisdom keepers speak of this as a significant advancement up the spiritual spiral; an elevation of consciousness, a significant soul-growth process. Our solar system is starting to come into alignment with galactic centre and higher /stronger energy vibrations. The veil between the physical and spiritual worlds is lifting, allowing us to see a much larger reality than we had previously known. Carl Jung addressed the concept of the ascension process, tacitly, as the union of the conscious and unconscious minds, where the wisdom of the unconscious and collective (divine) consciousness rises up to a conscious level. As consciousness rises, we evolve spiritually, acting less from a motivation of fear and more from love. It is this archetypal memory we want to access.You will be guided to heal and shift the feminine or masculine energies that are blocked, stagnant or out of balance and restore the divine harmony within.

What if…..our consciousness IS the hidden spiritual realm both quantum physics and spirituality tell of.
By altering our brain waves and way of experiencing, we can alter reality. By going deep into our own selves, we are able to touch other worlds! It is our frequency that is ascending, merging ourselves, time and other dimensions. Before we can go forward, we need to back up a bit. Stories from most cultures tell of the Golden Age, the perfect world in ancient times when the gods ruled. Aztec, Inca, Mayan, Hebrews, Hopi, Native North Americans, Australian Aboriginals as well as most spiritual teachings, tell of 4 (or 5) Ages/worlds in our global history. In the same way, stories from science describe the 4 (or 5) primary brain wave states that relate to our consciousness. The knowledge of the Ancients includes mystical spiritual wisdom beyond any religion – which expressed itself through astronomy, astrology, healing, math, science, alchemy, aeronautics, navigation, crystal computers, agriculture, genetic engineering, architecture. Knowledge that came to us from the gods—as told through their history books, things we call myths or religion. Prometheus brought down the fire (knowledge, energy) of the gods. That same story was told in the Book of Enoch and the books of India. While these worlds existed in the ancient past, we can access to them from within. Each of the primary brain wave states corresponds to one of the four worlds. The qualities of each world correspond to similar qualities in our brain wave states. If these dimensions are our unconscious (and conscious), then there must be realms which are solely personal, and some which are our collective unconscious, similar to a personal and networked hard drive. The collective memories would cross all cultural barriers, and live as vague recollections in the back of our mind somewhere. In psychology these are called ‘archetypes’—a preset way we have of understanding something. The idea of archetypes was elaborated on by the great Carl Jung, student and contemporary of Sigmund Freud, long time student of spirituality, Kabbalah, alchemy, Hindu, Buddhism, and comparative mythology. His writings and therapy are based on the idea of archetypes. These archetypes, such as mother, child, trickster, hero, creation – are primordial, from where we all originated. These ideas speak to our ancient collective history and ongoing influences. In these End Times or Ascension, the cosmic energy is shifting. Our solar system starting to come into alignment with galactic centre and higher /stronger energy vibrations. The veil between the physical and spiritual worlds is lifting, allowing us to see a much larger reality than we had previously known. It puts in our face all the things that were deeply hidden, personally and culturally. Altered Consciousness We have the ability to alter consciousness to experience the world differently. Many rituals and practices can be seen as methods to do this, increasing awareness of ourselves and our world. Anything that puts our brain into a different wave frequencies will alter consciousness, and anything that alters consciousness will change our brain wave state to correspond.
Androgyny and the Contra Sexuality
The psyche is such that it contains and embraces both the feminine and masculine. It is inherently an androgynous entity regardless of what the gender of the physical person is. The personality or persona naturally takes on the gender role that you are born to physically. Not always, as we know, but this is the general default orientation. Women take on a feminine role and persona. Men take on a masculine role and persona. The psyche compensates for this by birthing a contra sexuality in the inner life of the person. So: Women have a contra sexuality which is masculine in nature and this is called the Animus. Men have a contra sexuality which is feminine in nature and this is called the Anima. An amplification of these archetypal characters is that the Animus is the woman’s rational function and the Anima is the man’s irrational function. The above is where today in using Jung’s definitions in this way we may injure certain gender sensitivities. And beyond that let me say I agree that these strict and traditional classifications are not universally applicable. However for the sake of explaining these concepts, it is easier if we start with these classical definitions. So putting the above together we can say the following: In a woman her contra sexuality is masculine and governs her rational thinking function and we call this the Animus. In a man his contra sexuality is feminine and governs his irrational feeling function and we call this the Anima. The Inner Life or Soul When we talk about the role of the Anima and Animus we are talking about:
These are some of the more well known and fundamental roles of the soul and how the soul operates when it is appropriate placed and functional. Neuroses in a Jungian sense are frequently a manifestation of a displaced soul life. I will give some examples of this later on. Archetypes It is important to understand that an archetype, as in the case of the Anima/Animus, transcends the personal psyche. This was one of Jung’s greatest contributions to depth psychology. The idea of a transpersonal psychic structure which transcends the personal. An archetype is like a Platonic Ideal. It exists as a Universal or an Idea which is common to all of mankind. The Jungian mathematician Robin Robertson refers to this as a cognitive invariant, meaning it has universality, a commonality which is evident across multiple individual psyches. So whilst the anima/animus will naturally have a personal colouring in each individual it will also have an archetypal or transpersonal component. Father and Mother, King and Queen Following the above it is such that the child has this latent archetype or capacity in the psyche prior to birth. Under normal circumstances the masculine and feminine will be modelled on the first imprint in the child’s life of the masculine and feminine – the father and mother. However in the case of an absent parent the child will base the initial archetypal colouring on a parental surrogate. An older woman or man who the child can relate to as a parental substitute, filling the void created by the missing parent. This parental relationship then is the prime imprinter of the anima or animus as the case may be. Whilst it is not the sole imprinter and the image of the contra sexual self is evolved with later more mature relationships with the opposite sex, it has (as can be imagined) the single biggest influence. The AnimusOne of the differentiating qualities which Jung identified between the animus and anima is that the animus has a multiplicity to it whereas the anima appears more in the singular. A good example of this is the fairytale of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs– who are all animus manifestations, psychologically speaking. Archetypal examples of the animus in various stages of development:
The Integrated Animus The animus when it is integrated in a healthy female psyche would typically imbue the following qualities: Good rational and logical ability. Ability for clear non attached thought. Ability to construct by sustained effort and application. A strong centre. Good external strength in the persona. Bridge to knowledge and creative thought. Problem solving. The Displaced Animus When the animus is displaced or overwhelms the female psyche it may exhibit some of the following symptoms: Know it all behaviour. Bullying. Sadism. Controlling. Loud. Inability to effectively and meaningfully relate. The AnimaThe Anima, naturally, is originally based on the boy’s image of his mother and this later evolves with his relatedness to more mature romantic relationships. The Anima is generally related to in the singular both in the inner and outer worlds. Meaning, a man will generally project his anima onto only a single woman at any one time, whereas a woman would frequently have more than one animus projection in her life. Archetypal examples of the Anima in various stages of development:
The Integrated Anima Some typical qualities of the integrated Anima are: Self soothing, self nurturing and self loving. Access to creative inspiration. Strong centre and contained inner life. Capable of empathy. Able to make value judgements beyond the realm of pure rationality. Access to feeling life. Good relatedness. Happy. The Displaced Anima Some typical qualities of the displaced Anima are: Uncontained, constantly seeking external affirmation. Lack of creativity. Moody. Bitchy. Poor relatedness, behaviour in relationships designed to isolate the person from others. Masochistic. Greedy, grasping. Self centred. The Journey to individuationJungian therapy traditionally starts with the integration of the shadow which has a stronger personal component than the anima/animus which is more archetypal in nature. Once the analyst is satisfied the analysand has made good progress with their shadow work then the challenge of working with the anima/animus would begin in earnest. There are many ways of going about this work and Jungian therapy is adverse to formulistic approaches. The journey varies from individual to individual. However to give some idea of how challenging this can be, let me refer to a case I am very familiar with, the case of myself. Now admittedly I was, and am still to a degree, what may be classified as neurotic, so my case would not necessarily apply to you. However it is generally a case of degrees so it will give an indication of the gradient of this work. In my case I first encountered this teaching, not in analysis, but in a theoretical presentation, some ten years ago. I immediately realised my own challenges with my anima and began consciously working on its integration into my psyche. At the time I was in a weekly Jungian study group led by a highly erudite Jungian teacher with an emphasis on the practical application of Jung’s teaching. I remained in this study group for several years. In addition to this I was and remain to this day committed to extensive internal work. Ten years later I would be dishonest if I said I had integrated my Anima. Nevertheless the journey has been one filled with riches and extensive inner and outer growth. I hope that the fact I choose to write this post at this time, despite how challenging this work is, indicates my belief in its value. Creating a Model or Imago to better understand the Anima/Animus With the above qualification in place, I would like to give some indication here of how one may approach this challenging aspect of the individuation process. Jungian therapy with an analyst; probably the most direct and contained way to approach this for those fortunate enough to have access to a analyst. In the dialogue between analyst and analysand, using the content of the analysand’s life much progress can be made. Dream work; the animus/anima visits us in our dreams usually in the form of the opposite sex. By finding a means of meaningfully understanding and working with our dream life we develop in effect a direct dialogue with the archetype. Building the imago of the archetype through a process of reflection. This would be based on the enduring qualities that you found evident across multiple relationships with the opposite sex. From parent, to mentor, to siblings to romantic interests. Once this imago is constructed one enters into a dialogue with it through the imaginative process or what Jung referred to as active imagination. A mature and lasting relationship with a member of the opposite sex in the world, typically in the form of marriage. In a marriage one is relating in effect to one’s souls image. This comes with a few challenges, which time and space considerations forbid me from enumerating here; nevertheless it is the single most effective tool to integrate the soul image. It is also the one which has been the default technique applied the world over. Conclusion A topic such as this one can fill volumes and in the annals of Jungian literature indeed has. I realise that this post may pose more questions than it answers and I have to accept that. I don’t suppose to herein have exhausted the topic. Nevertheless, if this post stimulates you to investigate this topic further then it will have served its purpose.

They brought together three heart opened practitioners wanting to share their gifts with YOU :) Collaborative ventures are where its at :)!! Nature loves diversity and combinations make interesting bridges and uncover delightful new insights! I am in :) xo Just like the masculine meeting the feminine or the feminine meeting the masculine- my gifts born with the brith of each family Ive supported- meet 2 earth guided and spirit whispered goddesses offering their own energetic and powerfully initiated gifts! I am so delighted to be joining these powerful wymon in a collaborative event on the winter solstice ! I would love to see you there and share heart to heart :) Warmly, Nattalia "Breath. What is the power of bringing consciousness to our breath? Think about breathing for a moment, we rarely think about our breath. It is an ever present experience, it connects the outside world with the inside world and every single one of us does it. We all breathe and we all share the breath. Conscious Connected Breathing returns us to this simple connected fact. Breathing connects us. It connects us to our world and to our inner selves. And we all know that connection, to our truth, to our earth, offers us the opportunity to make different choices, kinder choices. It offers us opportunities to heal wounds, find strengths, and offer our gifts to others and the earth. Connection, between seemingly opposites, like our inside and outside, brings harmony to these opposites. We start with the breath. The breath becomes the bridge on a journey of deep connection. I am honoured to walk beside you as you uncover your own sense of connection. Breathe Well." - Nattalia Walkker www.birthwyse.com |
