 with meaningless content.
In conclusion, when words and descriptions are used uncritically they are emptied for meaning. Today, the unconscious refers to whatever we do not know or refuse to accept, or to acts made by what we deem to be spontaneous or instinctive – this without ever questioning if there actually is a category of unconscious experience we act upon. Likewise, ‘the shadow’ is frequently associated with sexual matters, while these issues are actually more properly ascribed to the anima/animus complex. And archetypes... every man and every phenomena seems to express and archetype and this is all of a sudden used as a model of explanation that we use to excuse our lack of honour and character and in the same vein falls modern astrology. It is seen as a map of your psyche to explain why you are as you are and thus induce the fatalistic reasoning to why you do not have to do anything about your current estate. And it is in these consequences my critique of Jungian psychology and his grave impact on the ‘magical archetype’. By appealing to Jung a dualistic fatalism is at work, where you are already born a blueprint that is marked by a certain archetype and in the course of life your level of neurosis or psychic affliction is mediated by these principles. Rather that make a happy destiny happen and embrace luck man is falling back into excuses resting on false pretences and excuses by referring to their natal chart of shadows or inner conflicts or the unbearable challenges of their archetypical unfolding. For me that question severely if any archetypical blueprint is presented by see these questions are crucial. I see man born into a world that is marked by some level of social dysfunction. It is this dysfunction that establishes our ‘shadow’. This dysfunction is brought upon us by disruptive families, limited worldviews and religious control that dominate human life and organization with moral and dogmas – and this leaves imprints. These imprints are for the psychoanalysts seen as imprints on the psyche – but I believe, we are all born good and blessed, these imprints are social and they scar our psyche when we act upon this dysfunctional world. As such, we are never responsible for our scars, they are relationships possible to heal and from seeing the interrelationships’ and connectedness we can reach our full potential. The key is not resting within a slimy web of obscure and vile psychosis. The key to our fulfilment is out there – within the web of stars, our home and being and we need to reach unity, not fragmentation.Hello everyone!!! I’m super duper excited!! My card was chosen as one of the CAS(E) this Sketch Favorites yesterday!!! I have to say this card is one of my favorite cards of all times. The white and gold are so pretty together. I’m so glad I participated.
I’m back today with CAS(E) this Sketch #82. This sketch was created by N@ Ali.
When I saw this sketch, I know I wanted to play with Mama Elephant’s Just Hatched stamp set. I ordered it back in March when it was release but haven’t had a chance to use it. So I saw it fitting to use it today.
Take a look at my card:
It’s a shaker card!!! This is the first time I’ve created a shaker card. It wasn’t hard at all. I have to thank Laura Bassen for the inspiration. She always makes shakers cards look so easy to make.
1. I colored my chick with Copic markers # YR16, Y13, Y19, YG17.
2. My speech bubble was created using a die from Lawn Fawn’s Large Stitched Journaling Card Dies.
3. I stamped the sentiment on the card base using the die cut speech bubble as a reference so that the sentiment was centered.
4. A piece of acetate was attached to the front panel.
5. I added a lot of foam adhesive around the speech bubble so that the sequin wouldn’t fall out. Adhesive was also added to the edge of the panel so that it will sit nice and neat on the card base.
So what do you think? I’m impressed at my first shaker card. I can’t wait to try this with a watercolor panel.
