Opposites
I am back reflecting on the opposites. I have been reading about the Red Sun which came into a recent dream. In doing so, I discover that sun and moon, or man and woman are the greatest opposites to ponder. Sol (masculine) and Luna (feminine). I am aware that my definitions of masculine and feminine have changed considerably since I have been dreaming and studying Jung. I believe I have expanded their meanings to include far more than I did when I was growing up in the fifties and most everything was pretty fixed: women were like June Cleaver and men were like John Wayne. Pretty stilted, don't you think. Anyway, I like to consider powerful women and thoughtful men, and I hope to consolidate those characteristics in myself: to become more of both. Is the ultimate reconciliation between man and woman. The alchemists seemed to think so. There are always two sides to every situation: nothing is either good or bad. Thoughts to ponder on since much of conscious life is dictated by right and wrong.
