"Jung was once asked if nature, as in our strange dreams, means to deceive. He replied that humans deceive, but nature, never. We have to learn to the language of symbolic expression as our ancestors once knew, and be humble in our effort to accept what nature has to reveal to us". ~ James Hollis
🧵How curious it is that, in going through a scary difficult experience, one that we’ve perhaps been avoiding for some time, to find that afterwards, an abiding sense of calm and peace settles into my body and mind; previous persistent suddenly symptoms gone, and a sense of alignment within is felt.
“When we are doing what is right for us, something inside us support and carries us through even the most grueling, difficult times of our life. 🧵
“The problem of “power” haunts every relationship. Power itself is neutral, neither inherently good nor bad; it is the energy to address life’s problems. But it can be pernicious when caught in a complex. 🧵
"Every transformation demands as its precondition "the ending of a world" —the collapse of an old philosophy of life". ~ C G Jung Art by Wojciech Siudmak
“I understand now that I am not a mess, but a deeply feeling person in a messy world. I explain that now, when someone asks me why I cry so often, I say, “For the same reason I laugh so often — because I am paying attention.” ~ Glennon Doyle Melton Art by Anna Speshilova
"You'll never be complete, and that's the way it should be. Inside you one vault after another opens endlesly. Don't be ashamed to be a human being—be proud." ~ Tomas Tranströmer Art: 'Scene Under the Stairs' by Jacek Yerka.
"We look at the world once, in childhood. The rest is memory." ~ Louise Glück Art: 'Every Morning the World is Created’ by Lucy Campbell.
"It has often been noted that most, if not all, problems brought to therapists are issues of love. It makes sense then that the cure is also love." ~ Thomas Moore, 'Care of the Soul'.
“Each time you become more aware of and receptive to a previously unconscious aspect of yourself, that fragmented piece of you is invited back into the fold, and you become more whole as a human being.” ~ Thomas Hübl, 'Attuned: Practicing Interdependence to Heal Our Trauma—and Our World'
“By the turning of this wheel, karmic suffering repeats, and trauma is transmitted from one generation to the next—until it finds space and presence and clarity; until it is owned so that it may be healed.” ~ Thomas Hübl, Healing Collective Trauma Art: 'Ouroboros' by Samuel Farrand

“The developing self is driven by a sense of something needing to be addressed. Pain and resistance accompany breaking from the old even though the steps forward are desired and taken towards movement and change.” ~ Susan E. Schwartz, Girl Unfolding, p.145
“The inner path takes a path of meaning. It tends towards self-surrender, chooses the individual trail, not the crowded roads. The way is long, hard. The reward is intangible. Faced with the unknown we tend to fantasy, assumptions, anticipations and fears.🧵
