Other Resources for Archetype Study? - GentleWanderer - 02-06-2017 The content of this thread was deleted by the user, a moderator added the following subject line for clarity and continuity: What other resources (besides the Ra Contact) do you recommend for studying the archetypes as Ra teaches them? RE: Support for studying the archetypes ? - Nía - 02-06-2017 https://archetypalmind.wordpress.com/ -`ღ´- RE: Support for studying the archetypes ? - Nicholas - 02-06-2017 Carl Gustav Jung is my favourite, after all it was he who coined the term "archetype" Some of his writing is as dense as Ra''s though. I am convinced he was working from the indigo ray and displayed deep erudition, which is why I would recommend him over looking at tarot pics, if you are more analytical than intuitive that is. He also worked for US intelligence (OSS, The forerunner to the CIA) during WW II, providing psychological profiles of Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini. RE: Support for studying the archetypes ? - Jade - 02-06-2017 To study the archetypes, you need to spend a great deal of time looking at them, and thinking about them, and not worrying what other people say about them. I mean, it's good to have a basis to know what they mean, but the specifics are more yours to design. The archetypes are a tool to teach intuition through symbolism. You will go further more quickly with time spent in solo contemplation. Quote:89.23 Questioner: Then could you tell me what information you gave to the Egyptian priest, or Egyptian, who first was contacted or taught with respect to the first archetype? Is that possible for you to do within the limits of the first distortion? RE: Support for studying the archetypes ? - Nicholas - 02-07-2017 Here is a good starter book. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Archetypes-Collective-Unconscious-Collected-Works/dp/0415058449 Jung essentially deals in depth with archetypes 1 and 2, but he also goes into detail about the personal and collective mind. As a beginner I would say that this is a safe starting point. Mythology is another way of teaching the archetypes, as a good story is multi layered with the various, archetypal facets interwoven. The more enjoyable yet mysterious a story is, the more likely it has archetypal revelations. Contemporary stories like The lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, The Lion King, Pinocchio etc, also have value, but they are more mired in the cultural context of their time. But then again, so are the "Ra pics" RE: Support for studying the archetypes ? - Nicholas - 02-07-2017 Bring4th_Austin began this thread where he synthesises Carl Jung's theories with Ra. http://www.bring4th.org/forums/showthread.php?tid=7931&highlight=Carl+Jung |
