Suffering and death are an inherent part of Christ's archetypal mythologem. His fate. His destiny. You should rather be asking why the archetype endured death on behalf of the inhabitants of a civilization that was being besieged to the verge…"

"If anything, Jesus was punished for the sins of mankind. In Elm Street lore, the children are being punished for the sins of the parents. In both cases, someone innocent is made to suffer for choices they never made and actions beyond their control."

Yes halloween is being taken over. Our hallowed tradition is being besmirched in part by elements of a death/freddy kruger/shadow cult. Halloween and the Anthesteria are meant to be cathartic experiences. In Halloween and the Anthesteria the…"

I hope that as you have explored the community you have noticed what a dynamic group of like-minded people are here, all who are deeply drawn by the field of depth psychology. While there are many Jungian analysts and clinical psychologists here, our members come from all walks of life--artists, writers, doctors, healing professionals, counselors, students, business people, etc--so there is much cross-disciplinary knowledge and experience here to be shared.
