Download or read book Astrology of the Shadow Self written by Maja D'Aoust and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: • Explains how to determine your shadow planets and zodiac signs through the oppositions of your birth chart • Details the meaning and challenges of each shadow counterpart for every astrological sign and planet that appears in a traditional astrological chart • Looks at the alchemical nature of the dark side of the human mind and shadow-work methods for bringing the oppositional self into personal awareness Recently rediscovered by modern psychology, the shadow self was recognized in ancient teachings as an inseparable part of the human being, a vital portion of who we are. The ancient Egyptians regarded working with the shadow as a necessary part of spiritual growth, and shadow work practices are alluded to in the oldest writings. In this practical guide to shadow astrology, Maja D’Aoust explains how to determine the shadow polarities of your natal chart and explore the hidden wisdom and challenges of the oppositional identity within. She shows how finding your shadow planets is easy—they are the opposite sign of the planets in your birth chart. For example, someone with the sun in Libra will have their shadow sun in Aries. She explains how, just like the traditional planets of astrology, each shadow planet governs a specific area of human activity: Venus shadows speak of tainted love, while Mercury shadows reveal challenges of the mind. Each of these shadow planets presents a specific type of negative challenge that emerges when opposition arises. Providing vivid examples, the author details the meaning of each shadow counterpart for every astrological sign and planet that appears in a traditional astrological chart and explains how to interpret and work with their challenges. In addition to chart interpretation, the author also explores the history of this astrological method, including its roots in ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, and the Western magic tradition. She looks at the alchemical nature and subconscious influences of the dark side of the human mind and the shadow-work methods necessary for bringing the oppositional self into personal awareness. Revealing how to interpret astrological charts for personal growth and conscious evolution, this guide invites you to explore the darkness within in order to know the totality of your whole self.

Download or read book Jung on Astrology written by C. G. Jung and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jung on Astrology brings together C. G. Jung’s thoughts on astrology in a single volume for the first time, significantly adding to our understanding of Jung’s work. Jung’s Collected Works, seminars, and letters contain numerous discussions of this ancient divinatory system, and Jung himself used astrological horoscopes as a diagnostic tool in his analytic practice. Understood in terms of his own psychology as a symbolic representation of the archetypes of the collective unconscious, Jung found in astrology a wealth of spiritual and psychological meaning and suggested it represents the "sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity." The selections and editorial introductions by Safron Rossi and Keiron Le Grice address topics that were of critical importance to Jung—such as the archetypal symbolism in astrology, the precession of the equinoxes and astrological ages, astrology as a form of synchronicity and acausal correspondence, the qualitative nature of time, and the experience of astrological fate—allowing readers to assess astrology’s place within the larger corpus of Jung’s work and its value as a source of symbolic meaning for our time. The book will be of great interest to analytical psychologists, Jungian psychotherapists and academics and students of depth psychology, Jungian and post-Jungian studies, as well as to astrologers and therapists of other orientations, especially transpersonal.
Download or read book The Shadowdance the Astrological 7th House Workbook written by Rebeca Eigen and published by . This book was released on 2017-06-21 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around midlife we begin to see patterns as situations repeat themselves. These patterns are reflected through the mirrors of other people whenever we feel extreme distaste and repulsion or the exact opposite ¿ a strong attraction. Thus, we are seeing a part of ourselves that we have yet to integrate. The noted Swiss psychiatrist Dr. Carl Gustav Jung called these hidden parts of us ¿the Shadow.¿ He believed that this task ¿ bringing our dark side (unconscious and undeveloped attitudes and characteristics) into the light ¿ is essential for true self-awareness.Becoming conscious of ¿the Shadow¿ is also a strong link to truly loving ourselves for all of who we are. We become more authentic in the process, and this opens the door to healthy and honest relationships with others that are real. Experiences that have puzzled us for years will all of a sudden become perfectly clear when we learn about our Shadow and Jung¿s theory of opposites.The planets in or ruling the 7th house and/or in aspect to Venus will give you details of what you are missing in yourself. These hidden parts will be projected onto our partners. Once you can own your own Shadow, then a conscious relationship can begin as two people have detailed information to help them learn to cooperate and compromise (two key Libra words). Rebeca uses astrology, psychology and personal anecdotes as well as examples of those who have taken her workshops. The workbook also includes four case histories transcribed verbatim from actual consultations. Rebeca Eigen, an astrologer for 25= years and a student of Jungian psychology, specializes in relationships. She uses the astrological birth chart to evoke the symbolic and help you become more aware of your total Self. Her study of the Shadow using astrological tools has given her an invaluable awareness of the unconscious and the role it plays in the relationships that we attract into our lives. We know from studying myth that Beauty eventually learned to love the Beast.
Download or read book Tarot Shadow Work written by Christine Jette and published by Llewellyn Worldwide. This book was released on 2000 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Tarot Shadow Work, Christine Jette bravely takes the practice of tarot readings to new depths and places many people fear to go. She shows us how we can use the cards to trigger awareness in ourselves of troubling aspects of our lives and histories, and then go beyond discovery to use the cards as tools for healing. This is part of the work that needs to be done with tarot in this new century." --Rachel Pollack, author of 78 Degrees of Wisdom and the forthcoming Shining Tribe Tarot Deep within our psyches, the unconscious holds our forbidden feelings, secret wishes, and creative urges. Over time, these "dark forces" take on a life of their own and form the shadow--a powerful force of unresolved inner conflicts and unexpressed emotions that defies our efforts to control it. The shadow takes its shape from a menagerie of archetypes, each recognizable throughout time and around the world--troubling characters who thrive within our persona. The shadow is sabateur, martyr, victim, addict, sadist, masochist, or tyrant; all the dark figures that prey on the lighter qualities of the human personality. The shadow also represents those latent talents and positive traits that were banished from us at some time along our life path: artistic, musical, athletic, or creative talents. An undeveloped ability, a dream that has gone unexpressed, a fantasy of what might have been--these too make up the personal shadow, the lost parts of ourselves. Tarot Shadow Work shows you how to free yourself from the shackles of the shadow's power. Through tarot work, journaling, meditation, creative visualization, and dream work, you will bring the shadow into the light. This book is ideal for those who are in recovery from a serious addiction or illness, as well as any person seeking a deeper understanding of his or her true self. By exploring the dark and uncharted territory of the unconscious mind, you will work towards understanding and integrating the shadow. No prior knowledge of the tarot is required. You will learn to use the cards as a tool to help you break free from negative patterns and self-destructive behavior. Once we realize that we are made of both light and darkness, life will start to make sense. When we accept our dual natures, we stop sabotaging our own efforts and learn to be compassionate with others and with ourselves.

Download or read book Shadow Work For Beginners written by Rohit Sahu and published by Rohit Sahu. This book was released on 2021-03-20 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to recognize and heal the shadow patterns and wounds of your inner child? Do you wish to get rooted in your soul for wholeness? Do you want to influence your programs and beliefs to attain eternal bliss? Do you want to know where you are on the ladder of consciousness, and how to move up? Do you want to learn how to forgive, let go, and have compassion for yourself and others? Do you want to alter and strengthen your mindset to maximize every aspect of your life? If so, this guide is just what you need. For many, the word “Shadow Work” conjures up all sorts of negative and dark ideas. Because of the beliefs we have of the term Shadow, it is tempting to believe that Shadow Work is a morbid spiritual practice or that it is an internal work that includes the more destructive or evil facets of our personalities. But that’s not the case. In fact, it is vital for your spiritual growth. When you go through a spiritual awakening, there comes a point where Shadow Work becomes necessary. So, what exactly is the ‘Human Shadow,’ and what is ‘Shadow Work?’ The definition of the Shadow Self is based on the idea that we figuratively bury certain bits of personality that we feel will not be embraced, approved, or cherished by others; thus, we hold them in the Shadow. In brief, our Shadows are the versions of ourselves that we do not offer to society. It includes aspects of our personality that we find shameful, unacceptable, and ugly. It may be anger, resentment, frustration, greed, hunger for strength, or the wounds of childhood—all those we hold secret. You might claim it’s the dark side of yourself. And no matter what everyone suggests, they all have a dark side to their personalities. Shadow Work is the practice of loving what is, and of freeing shame and judgment, so that we can be our True Self in order to touch the very depths of our being, that is what Shadow Work means. You have to dwell on the actual problems rather than on past emotions. If you do so, you get to the problems that have you stressed out instantly and easily. And to be at peace, we need to get in touch with our darker side, rather than suppressing it. Whether you have struggled with wealth, weight, love, or something else, after dissolving the Shadow within, you will find that your life is transforming in both tiny and drastic ways. You’ll draw more optimistic people and better opportunities. Your life will be nicer, easier, and even more abundant. The book covers the easiest practices and guided meditation to tap into the unconscious. It’s going to help you explore certain aspects so that they will no longer control your emotions. Just imagine what it would be if you could see challenges as exciting obstacles rather than experiencing crippling anxiety. This book is going to be the momentum you need to get to where you’re trying to be. You’ll go deeper into your thoughts, the beliefs that hold you back disappear, and you get a head start on your healing journey.

Download or read book Finding the Shadow in the Horoscope written by Glenn Perry and published by . This book was released on 2012-05-03 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jung's concept of the shadow has much in common with the astrological meaning of Pluto. As lord of the underworld, Pluto is naturally associated with things dark and shadowy. When Pluto forms a hard aspect to another planet, that planet's functions tend to be split into opposite halves and mixed with the wounded-healer archetype. The dark, projected side appears to be wounded, while the light, inflated side feels imbued with healing potential. Because a split archetype tries persistently to return to its original integrity, the individual becomes obsessed with transforming or destroying whatever has been projected. Yet, if wholeness is to be restored, such planets require healing from the inside. In so doing, extremism is mitigated and buried potentials recovered. In this book, five different manifestations of the shadow are explored. Chapter One examines astrologers' vulnerability to inflation and delusions of omniscience. Chapter Two provides an astrological case history of Dr. Laura Schlessinger, the infamous talk show shrink who may embody the dark side of the helping professions. In myth and cinema, perhaps there is no better example of the shadow than Darth Vader, whose fall and ultimate redemption is dramatically illustrated in the chart of George Lucas, our subject of Chapter Three. Chapter Four analyzes another shadowy figure of cinematic magic, King Kong, a uniquely 20th century version of the Pluto and Persephone myth. Finally, we explore the Saturn-Pluto opposition of 2001-2002, which strikingly illustrates the collective dimension of the shadow as manifest in the war on terrorism that reached a crescendo during this period.
