The lives that have touched us, the experiences that have shaped us, everything that has made us who we are...
This is our wealth. This is the storehouse from which new life arises,
the treasure in our hearts that makes the impossible possible,
shatters limitations,
builds high and digs deep,
lives long and sees far.
This post is the second part of a series on the integration of several theories about the structure of consciousness. I’m going to charge right into the middle of it here, so make sure you’ve read the first part! Read the rest of this entry »
This is the first of a series of posts on how human consciousness is structured. There are dozens of hypotheses from all over the world about how consciousness can be raised, lowered, changed, and so forth. In this series, I’d like to present some of my favorites: mythological archetypes, the Leary eight-circuit model, western astrology, the chakra system, Rudolf Steiner’s ideas, David Hawkins’s 12 levels of consciousness, and the Tarot. I’m going to describe them briefly and try to integrate them into a single model. (Then I’m going to try to run a 1.5-minute mile, fly to the moon, and cure cancer. Then I’ll have breakfast.) This is going to be challenging, but fun.
In this first post, I’ll describe Jungian archetypes and the Wilson/Leary eight-circuit model, and show how they may be describing (at least partly) the same thing.

DRUID JOURNAL MEDITATION |
|---|---|
| Experience meditation for yourself. It's an excellent way to communicate with guides, develop your intuition, explore inner space, and reach a state of peace. |

WORD OF THE DAY |
|---|---|
Not just a word. A guided tour of a tiny piece of the human experience. These are words you already know - simple words like god and sun and home. Words that are part of the furniture of your mind, the vocabulary of your subconscious, the words in your heart. You'll read about where they come from and what they mean, just like in a regular word-of-the-day, but you'll also read about how their sounds contribute to their meaning in subtle ways (phonosemantics), related words, and their place in the universal subconscious. |
