Higher Self, Shadow Self, Magick & CRYSTALS The Higher Self and Shadow Self are terms that I've heard and used but never attributed them to Jung. I decided to research Jung and found a video comparing Jungian Archetypes to the different tarot card. That's interesting. Tarot is simply tapping into intuition which we all have. Jung talks about the Self which is what folks present to the world. The Shadow Self is what folks keep hidden - sometimes even from themselves. I've always seem them as the Angel and Devil that sit on opposite sides on each shoulder. "Taking the High Road is the right thing to do" thus says the Angel. "But the Low Road" is so much more satisfactory" thus says the Devil on my shoulder. The struggle is real!!!!! Magick is defined as influencing the course of events using mysterious or supernatural forces. Personally, I don't think it's all that supernatural. It is simply the affirmation and visualization of a desired outcome. It goes out into the cosmos - and sometimes it actually works. People do it all the time. If I chant something while holding a crystal it just makes for a stronger visualization. |

I don't need to articulate my beliefs, you are aware of them. To each their own. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.
