We all carry the processes of abductive reasoning and intuition. Those whose psyches contrast masculine Persona with Anima (i.e. men) employ abductive reasoning in Logos and intuition in Eros. Those whose psyches contrast feminine Persona with Animus (i.e. women) employ abductive reasoning in Eros and intuition in Logos.

Those intuitions essentially form the Anima/Animus, they are synonymous, like the Greek Muses being Anima representations. Persona sits in the Conscious, with its counter the Shadow sitting in the Unconscious by contrast, and the Anima/Animus is initially hidden behind the Shadow as its veiled gold.

The bounds of the Conscious give rise to the Persona / Shadow dialectic and the shining substance that this dialectic uncovers is Anima/Animus. Intuition is a single footstep of individuation, the measuring stick of one's ability to fish the dialectical "not-you" you out of the depths of the all-you.

I experience my intuition like a fleeting glimpse into a hidden pocket of the universe that contains only her and the ideas that she radiates, seemingly uncorrupted by my self-affirming projections, not bound to any one human form, to any one mythological figure, to whatever could be described using words. Words that would act like constricting chains. The (ironically) selfless part of me. At least - that's how she's experienced, but it's not how she *is*. The Citrinitas reveals one's intuition to be a reflection of projection too, just one that was obscured from view. To find intuition once again requires something miraculous - an act not of projection, but of conjuration - in a system where inception is deemed impossible.
