Sand Mandala | Created & Destroyed
For anyone who has never witnessed the #cosmic #ritual #art of the #Tibetan #Buddhist #Sand #Mandala, here is a very nice 2-min #documentary #video. From Laticia Fan.

I found this short video fascinating, especially when Marie-Louise von Franz (who is incredible btw) talks about the concept of a national shadow and how knowing one's personal shadow can help keep one from falling into a collective shadow. But the rest is great too.
I've been reading Robert A. Johnson's book, Inner Work. I was lead to this book because I've been reading Jung and wanting to remember my dreams. I've enjoyed what I've read so far. And now I just bought Johnson's book, Owning Your Own Shadow, after watching the excellent video below.

I have been curious recently about #tarot cards and how they relate to #Jungian #archetypes. Consequently, I've been doing some reading on the subject and watching a variety of videos on tarot in general. And I got my first deck today (woo hoo).
I found the video below a great, straight-forward overview history of how tarot decks came to be.
@LALegault I think it's a morality stemming from the Holocaust.
Something I wrote years ago of which I was just reminded. I still like it. Perhaps I ought to let this artifact of a past life inspire me again to take up my camera (now with me everywhere in the form of a smartphone – I would have given my right arm for such a device in the 80s/90s) and create some new moving images. #ManRay #ExperimentalFilm #SilentFilm #cinema #movies #art #ArtHistory #Jung #Jungian #symbolism
#Cronenberg's the #InfinityPool manages to have all of his dad's weaknesses and none of his strengths. #MiaGoth's performance is fun but can't save this vacuous, pompous, racist bath in #Jungian bullshit. https://noahberlatsky.substack.com/p/stay-out-of-the-infinity-pool
If you have never seen this 14 minute, #experimental silent #film by #MayaDeren, I encourage you to do so. It's strange, hard to explain, #Jungian, and beautiful in it's own way. It's considered one of the most important films in the history of #cinema and, especially, of #ExperimentalFilm. Some might think it's a little rough around the edges, and it is, but the #creativity carries it. Also, it's total budget was only $275. Amazing.

#Intro #Introduction Well, here I am posting about #BookishThings. I joined a #Mastodon instance back in April of last year, when the threat of Muskification of Bird began looming on the horizon. By January of this year, I began thinking about the overabundance of material-topics I had for potential posting.
Three projects also came to mind. 1) A #TarotCard layout based on #Narrative #PlotLine. I've explored this idea using the #CelticCrossLayout, and will try to take it a bit further.

2) I've acquired too much material for my #ScannedCollages. I'm branching out with #AlteredBook #AsemblageArt. #Collage #CollageArt #Assemblage #Books #AlteredBookArt
3) "Try to motivate my reading by using the #PicturePromptBingo #2023 to give me as much flexibility in choices." My #BookPile needs to get a small dent (at least). Picture Prompt bingo card a loosey-goosey#ReadingChallenge in which you match books that you’ve read to one of the pictures on the bingo card. The key thing is that you be as #creative in your #interpretation of the picture as you like. #BookChoice #Book #Prompt

So here I am - even more #SocialMedia activity as I fill time and a small part of the #Fediverse with talk #OfBookishThings.

This account posts short excerpts from C.G. Jung's "Red Book", Liber Novus. I may also boost other Red Book-related toots from time to time. Follow along if you'd like a snippet of Jung's active imagination on a roughly daily frequency. #CGJung #psychology #Jungian #introduction
