Ha: And as you go in this way the serpent creeps toward you above all the stars.
/’;ij f1l ~@ (from 2. IX. 17)
Ha. There you have the lower cone again and want to bring the upper and lower suns together again.
You yearn for that, but nostalgically.
You put them both together, and long to return.
Then you make a roof above the lower cone, truly lock it up and get the suns back again and now bring them completely together and with this you yourself are doubled, i.e., instead of one, you are 4, and split.
(4. IX. 17) ~~ ~ [l tJ~
That’s why you must fetch out the sun again, namely, toward the below and from this the longing toward the above will grow in you.
You lift yourself over the line of the earth and tumble over.
That’s why you long suddenly for the below and want to lift up from the below, because you hang from the upper line.
You want to be one and stand straight[] that’s why you make a line in the middle, you walk on the earth and then up above and go into the sky.
And as you go in this way the serpent creeps toward you above all the stars.
You are one, you hold the serpent by the tail with one hand and with the other you hold the stars.
Both are separate.
Thus you stand straight.
(from 9. IX 17)
And because you stand that way, an arc grows on you on the other side, since you held back (toward the left).
Now you make a great prison below, possibly for the stars and a cradle above, possibly for the serpent.
You press the lid on the prison.
There you also have a prison above and the sun, which is one, looks toward you.
One of you is defiant and locked up below.
The sun has a serpent’s tail and is the serpent itself, and the other longs for the above and is not yet higher.
The defiance of the below and the longing of the above come together.
A roof above, and floor beneath, and you are one again. ~The Black Books, Vol. VII, Page 154
Jung’s Soul: The star seed in you is immortal.
Carl Jung Depth Psychology Facebook Group
Sunday. 3. VI 17-
Jung: My soul, where are you? What do you see? What are you busy with? I haven’t heard anything more from you. Truly, I was I away from you for too long.
S. “You weren’t away too long. Everything went correctly, as it should. I could do my part in the silence.”
Jung: What did you do? Let me take part.
S. “I piled up the ore-red stones-gold-shining things from ancient shafts. If you knew what Atmaviktu the ancient brought, which ~ shimmering serpent skin he shed when he became Philemon. Dangerous poisons, daimonic luminous things-a shimmering ground for the feet of the lovers.”
Jung: Grant me a glimpse. Proceed to the completion of the work.
S. [“] He spoke about me-that I was related to you-mortal with you-the life of your body, your solar mantle. Philemon is immortal. The star seed in you is immortal. It is a piece of the world, a Pleroma, a light and a darkness. Light insofar as it is~ differentiated from the Pleroma; darkness, insofar as it is the Pleroma itself The light shines out of difference. Differentiation strengthens the light of the star-Philemon raises himself higher. His head is in the blazing fire.
burns upward to the eternal fiery heavens. What is it? A weight lies on me-a burden? Is your body burdened? Is a poison in it? I see-you have not fulfilled the sacrificial service. It should be fulfilled.” ~The Black Books, Vol. VII, Page 148
