I’ve been thinking a lot lately; and I mean A LOT. There’s been many times even at work where I begin to zone out and get completely lost in my head. I’ve become so preoccupied with ideas about spirituality, philosophy, psychology, mythology, magick, religion, blah, blah, blah.. it goes on and on. At times I feel like the knowledge of the world is weighing on my shoulders and there’s no way for me to take it all in and make sense of it all. This can’t be healthy, well, in a normal sense. But as I currently read through Carl Jung’s work, or any other books I’ve read, and I begin to make connections between all these different areas of life, I can’t help but feel this sense of adventure that I must keep digging deeper to find out more. It’s a never ending passion that continues to grow exponentially every time I finish a new book, or discover a new connection that I want to further explore. I’m trying not to get lost out there, but how can you not?
I’m at the point of realization that we as humans are so small in this vast universe, and even on a smaller scale, here on Earth. I look at all the great pioneers of the past who have left their mark on the minds of those who sought out true knowledge; Crowley, Jung, Nietzsche, Campbell, Hall, Bardon, just to name a few. I feel like I owe them so much, even just for having the courage to seek beyond what was common and acceptable, as they have paved the way for us to study their work and explore even beyond what has been written in books. They have put into words the unspeakable, and I mean that literally. I have almost given up on attempting to share anything I learn with others, because there’s just no way to put into words what can only be known in the soul. I only wish I had other’s of like mind to be able to discuss what I learn with, and that’s why I started this blog. I’m not the best at articulating words and making it clear what I’m trying to get across, but I can only practice to get better.
As I continue to read and explore, I will continue to post things that I learn and hopefully find others out there to connect with. Even as big as the Earth is, we’ve definitely made it into a really small place through the internet. Anyways, I’ll end this for now before I ramble on, but if there’s anyone else out there with similar thoughts and experiences, you’re definitely not alone.
