"There is only one way and that is your way; there is only one salvation and

that is your salvation......What is to come will be created in you and from you.

Hence look into yourself.  Do not compare, do not measure.  No other way is

like yours.  All other ways deceive and tempt you.  You must fulfill the way

that is in you."  [The Red Book, p. 130]

INDEED, AND THAT IS THE WAY WE ALL NEED TO LOOK AT OUR SUBCONSCIOUS, THERE IS SO MUCH TO LEARN THERE!

THIS WAY, WE CAN FOLLOW OUR OWN PATH!

He looked at his own Soul with a telescope. What seemed all irregular, he saw and showed to be beautiful constellations, and he added to the consciousness hidden worlds within worlds.

-- Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Notebooks.

(This is also aptly quoted in the prologue to Jung's autobiography "Memories, Dreams and Reflections."

Nobody can fall so low unless he has a great depth. If such a thing can happen to a man, it challenges his best and highest on the other side; that is to say, this depth corresponds to a potential height, and the blackest darkness to a hidden light.

— C. G. Jung

Real liberation comes not from glossing over or repressing painful states of feeling, but only from experiencing them to their full.

Freud Museum London

From 1895, Freud travelled to Italy nearly every summer in the company of his younger brother Alexander. In 1904, they travelled to Athens for the first and only time. Our exhibition, Tracing Freud on the Acropolis, explores Freud’s journey to Greece.

In 1936 Freud was invited to write something for French author Romain Rolland’s 70th birthday by their mutual acquaintance, Victor Wittkowski. He initially refused - but eight days later composed an open letter titled 'A Disturbance of Memory on the Acropolis'. The essay reflected on a strange incident of disbelief and astonishment he had experienced during his only visit to Greece more than thirty years before. Our new exhibition, 'Tracing Freud on the Acropolis', opening in July, brings together objects, archives and anecdotes exploring Freud's journey to Greece and his encounter with the Acropolis.

Recognizing the work of Dr. Otto Kernberg M.D. - 'The text presents expositions and critiques of the theories of Melanie Klein, W.R.D. Fairbairn and Edith Jacobson, and correlates the authors own work with that of Margaret Mahler. The theory of object relations can be applied to both psychoanalytic technique and psychoanalytic psychotherapy - and to narcissism, both normal and pathological, in middle age. An entire section of this book is devoted to group phenomena, expanding on the classical psychoanalytic theory of group psychology and demonstrating the effects of regressive processes to be found in various kinds of groups. Essentially the work places special emphasis on the temptations and dangers to individual members of groups and to their leaders, temptations and dangers resulting from the activation of regressive processes. The final section of the book brings together concepts of object relations and group processes to examine the complicated interactions within a couple and between couples and groups. In this context, the author offers an original psychoanalytic formulation of love and its psychopathology.'

Precisely as described by Jung's famlous dream/vision asa boy when he descended into the cave and saw the phallus with the single eye stood upon a throne. A life changing event perhaps; almst as much as the dream he had where the large "turd" dropped upon the roof of the cathedral.

For this photo (taken from an installation by artist Cees Krijnen) a well-known Spanish magazine was suggested to be given a title by its commenters, and I can say that almost all the comments were quite funny. Observing the artist's excellent concept, I noticed that the woman who jumps the phallus-es is deliberately colored by the artist in the same color as them. And it reminded me of something from Lacan's Ecrits: Men are positioned as men insofar as they are seen to HAVE the phallus. Women, not having the phallus, are seen to "BE" the phallus. The symbolic phallus is the concept of being the ultimate man, and having this is compared to having the divine gift of God.

So I think that's The title!
