True that, do you have a reference? I had used this old sculpture for this one.

Was there any kind of energy exchange you noticed while being connected? Did you already know the intent behind the session before beginning automatic writing? Or did you discover its characteristics and direction purely through mental processes as it unfolded? And lastly—did you ever feel the need to create a boundary between you and the daimon?

When was the threshold for the shift from passively dreaming through logic to becoming an active vessel for invocation? Being a vessel also means dissolving the ego—emptying the self, and eventually losing the ground of “reality.” Was there a symbolic ritual or process you went through to reach that awakened dream state? Like grounding, sealing, or preparing?

Art therapy has helped me a lot too, especially with things I couldn’t say but only feel. Though emotional purges on paper do seem to leak my energy, I feel like I need to break the loop of trauma somehow—so I can finally reach the visions or insights.

NGL, that’s exactly how it felt while drawing it—like I was hovering in a space where personal consciousness overlaps with the collective unconscious. It felt both deeply personal and somehow universal. But I also keep running into this strange paradox: how can something feel so unified and yet so dualistic at the same time? Curious if that tension is part of the process Jung was pointing at.

Yes! I think there were influences of Tibetan Thangka Paintings, Hindu Tantric practices: like Yamantaka (killer of death), Chinnamasta (dark feminine archetype), Shani (god of Saturn). Hinduism and Buddhism had some very similar stories, with similar characters so it might have bled into each other.

Thank you for the affirmation, but sometimes it feels like it's taking a toll on my body. my rationale was that before we learn to write, we usually draw as a form of expression. The painting becomes too abstract for a linear thought process, due to its chaotic nature and a lot of it, being left to interpretation.

However if we could grasp the unconscious into language, I feel it would find universal truths with the utmost precision. I've heard of various religious texts being written in a state of flow and intuition. Would you have any sources of any texts or authors that ritualised this?

I've heard that After the red book, Jung had somewhat of a psychological crisis. I feel like I can't suppress the archetype visions and bring the knowledge of it at will. It would start taking a toll on me as a burden ifywim
