The travel deep inside our consciousness…

“Manifestation of the Higher Self”, Eduardo R. Calzado, 2013
Im mniej dziecko otrzymało miłości, im bardziej było odrzucane i maltretowane pod pozorem wychowania, tym bardziej człowiek dorosły przywiązany jest do rodziców i osób, na które przeniósł swoje oczekiwania, w nadziei, że kiedyś zostaną spełnione. Jest to normalna reakcja ciała. Ono wie, czego mu brakuje, nie może o tym zapomnieć i czeka aż ta luka zostanie wypełniona.
— Alice Miller, “Bunt ciała”

Carl G. Jung - Anima Projection
The anima and animus, in Carl Jung’s school of analytical psychology, are the two primary anthropomorphic archetypes of the unconscious mind, as opposed to both the theriomorphic and inferior-function of the shadow archetypes, as well as the abstract symbol sets that formulate the archetype of the Self. The anima and animus are described by Jung as elements of his theory of the collective unconscious, a domain of the unconscious that transcends the personal psyche. In the unconscious of the male, this archetype finds expression as a feminine inner personality: anima; equivalently, in the unconscious of the female it is expressed as a masculine inner personality: animus.
The anima and animus can be identified as the totality of the unconscious feminine psychological qualities that a male possesses or the masculine ones possessed by the female, respectively. It is an archetype of the collective unconscious and not an aggregate of father or mother, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles or teachers, though these aspects of the personal unconscious can influence the person for good or ill.
Because a man’s sensitivity must often be repressed, the anima is one of the most significant autonomous complexes of all. It is said to manifest itself by appearing in dreams. It also influences a man’s interactions with women and his attitudes toward them and vice versa for females and the animus. Jung said that “the encounter with the shadow is the ‘apprentice-piece’ in the individual’s development…that with the anima is the ‘masterpiece’”. Jung viewed the anima process as being one of the sources of creative ability.
In the book The Invisible Partners it is said that the key to controlling one’s anima/animus is to recognize it when it manifests and exercise our ability to discern the anima/animus from reality.
“I am”, Louise Lindgren, 2009
Soaring ever so far and high
Roaming endless endarkened sky
A value greater than mere gold
So much older than prior told
Friend and foe shield your eye
You - stand up and heed the call
Open your eyes and spread to all
Gentle blessing every morning
Every setting deep red warning
Sparing neither big nor small
Always in center - I never run
A mighty force defeated by none
Not like the planets turning
Body and soul forever burning
Alone and one - I am the sun
