Carl Jung, the Collective Unconscious & the Age of Pisces.

Have we learned our lesson?

I was writing on the Pisces New Moon when I realized I’d gone down a rabbit hole in a much broader subject — a Jungian analysis of the Age of Pisces & the roots of humanity’s self-destructive materialism. . .

& an astrological answer for how to best shape the Self & world.

At its core, Pisces is the dissolution of boundaries, the blurring of the lines between our inner world — emotions, instincts, the soul & psyche— & the world that surrounds us.

This is the intensity of our first love that connects us to the poets. The moments of betrayal that cause the tragedies to come alive for us.

It’s listening to Pink Floyd’s “Wish You Were Here,” high as a kite, realizing that by capturing the story of a madman as muse they’d touched on the archetypes beneath consciousness itself — the journey of a boy struggling to become a man, to be seen in a world gone mad.

Pisces feels so far into itself, the realm of the unconscious, the dreams & impressions it collects throughout the day that it comes out the other side of the rabbit hole with all the answers of Wonderland — a fantastical means to adapt to the world.
