I'm basically just starting this thread seeking info, rather than presenting any.
I'm sorry if there is a thread that goes into greater detail already, if you could link me via pm or respond here, then the mods can delete this.

Otherwise maybe this would be a good place to center a new discussion. I have seen the word used a lot,
and I have just recently been introduced the idea of higher aspects of self and archetypes -
I have my own idea but it is hard to communicate to most people using a particular metaphor,
which comes to me through comic books, oddly enough.. that may sound kind of weird but that "medium"
and a few particular writers have just been able to show me things and get my mind working on certain concepts.
Its definitely not something I can describe accurately with words.

What do you know? How do you define the terms, and how do they appear to you on a personal level?
Lots of people on the forum present this information and to me I feel like I need a decoder ring:wink2:.
And that isn't meant as offence against anyone, some things are just hard to wrap my head around - especially when we're using language.

Thanks both of you for the swift response

and eXchanger - that link is really relevent to me because i've had a severe writers block forever (and my writing has been one of my saving graces.)

thanks a bunch, again

i am still curious of how this filters down the line into a personal experience, I imagine people have plenty of useful memes in helping describe it
