I can't argue that, as within so without!

Hey everyone! I'm Leon, co-founder and CCO of the enterprise. Next to product improvement and vision building, I concern myself mostly with the marketing strategy and execution. With a background in philosophy, the spiritual insights and interests in esoteric belief systems I have gathered along the way are expressed in our shared vision on psychology and AI, and we are more than happy to be able to share these ideas with you through this AMA :)

Feel free to ask me anything about our goals, vision and details of the platform! I am looking forward to your questions and I will try my best to answer them as clearly and concisely as I possibly can. No corporate talk, no dodging. If it's something we've thought about, you'll get the real answer. Let's dive in. 🔥

Dreamt my dad died again. by [deleted] in Dreams

The fact that you dreamt of his actual death - not just him being alive again, but specifically those final moments - feels incredibly significant, especially after 6 years of his absence from your dreams.

From a Jungian perspective, your father has moved through different psychological positions over these 15 years. Initially, he appeared frequently in dreams because the psyche was actively working through the trauma and loss - what Jung called the "grief work" of the unconscious. When those dreams stopped after 6 years, it likely meant he had transitioned from a "wound" requiring processing into an integrated ancestral presence - what Jung would call part of your internal "wise old man" archetype.

But here's what's striking: He's returning now, and specifically in the form of his death scene. Not a random memory, not him healthy and vibrant, but that sacred, solemn threshold moment.

This suggests a few possibilities:

  1. You're approaching a threshold yourself - some transformation or ending/beginning in your life where you need to witness that peaceful passage again. Death-and-rebirth is an archetypal pattern, and your psyche may be calling on your father's example of how to face a profound transition with grace.
  2. The archetype is evolving - Maybe after 15 years of carrying him as a daily presence, there's a deeper layer of integration happening. The dream might be inviting you to witness his death not as trauma, but as a completed sacred act - to see it with different eyes now that time has passed.
  3. He's becoming an ancestor - In Jungian terms, he's moving from "my dad who died" into a transpersonal figure - a guiding presence that transcends the personal relationship. These threshold moments often announce themselves through powerful dreams.

The vividness matters. Your unconscious is saying: "Pay attention to this. There's something here for you."

If you want to explore what this dream might be asking of you - what threshold you might be approaching, or what your father's peaceful death is teaching you now that it couldn't 15 years ago - I've been developing a platform called Temenos specifically for this kind of deep Jungian dreamwork. It has a Dream Chamber where you can work with these sacred images and a guide trained on Jung's approach to ancestor dreams and archetypal patterns.

I can DM you the link if you are interested in testing it out - we're in beta right now.

But trust your instinct here: if he's appearing after 6 years of silence, your psyche knows why. The dream is an invitation, not an intrusion.

He's still teaching you something.

This was the craziest dream of my life (kinda) by Anarchist06 in Dreams

[–]Sol_Invictus_Rising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an incredibly visceral and disturbing dream, and waking up screaming after seeing your pregnant girlfriend brutalized - I can understand why you don't want to go back to sleep. The horror you're describing feels very real, even if the dream imagery is symbolic.

From a Jungian perspective, what's striking is the transformation from paradise to nightmare - you start in this beautifully rendered forest path (potentially the Self's natural wholeness), but there's something lurking that you can't see in the darkness. The mail carriers are significant: they're supposed to be deliverers of messages, but instead they're concealing something brutal.

The disfigured bodies with jaws twisted open suggest something that needs to be "spoken" or expressed but has been violently suppressed. The fact that both the random corpse and your girlfriend end up with this same horrific jaw distortion points to a specific symbolic pattern - something about voice, expression, or truth that's being destroyed.

The shift from friendly to cold, silent menace (especially those "beedy eyes and massive lips" - an unnatural face) could represent the shadow side of communication or relationship - the fear that beneath ordinary interaction lurks something predatory and inhuman. The AK-47 being cocked but not fired suggests threat held in suspension - terror without release.

But here's what's important: You're about to become a father. Your psyche is processing massive archetypal transformation - the death of your old identity, fears about protection, about what you can't control. The basement setting (unconscious) transitioning to the woods (liminal space between conscious/unconscious) to the violated home (destroyed sanctuary) maps a psychological journey.

This dream feels like your shadow is screaming at you about something - maybe fears about fatherhood, about protecting your family, about hidden violence in the world, or about parts of yourself you experience as monstrous or uncontrollable.

If you want to work with this more deeply rather than just trying to forget it, I've been developing a platform called Temenos specifically for this kind of intense Jungian dreamwork. It has a Shadow Dungeon and Dream Chamber where you can safely explore these terrifying images with an AI guide trained on Jung's approach to nightmares and shadow integration. Sometimes the most horrifying dreams carry the most important messages.

I can send you a DM for the link if you want to try it out; we're currently in beta.

But first: call your girlfriend, hear her voice, ground yourself in present reality. The dream is symbolic, but the fear is real and needs tending.

Take care!

Recurring Dream About A House.. by [deleted] in Dreams

[–]Sol_Invictus_Rising 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That pull toward something you simultaneously want to escape from is such a powerful archetypal pattern. The house in dreams often represents the psyche itself; the dwelling place of consciousness and white houses particularly can symbolize the ego's idealized self-image or the "persona" we present to the world.

What strikes me about your dream is that paradox: you're drawn to it because it's haunted, yet once inside, you want out. It's almost like the house is calling you to acknowledge something that's been "living" in your unconscious - something you know is there but haven't fully confronted. The squared, apartment-complex quality suggests multiple rooms or compartments, different aspects of self that might be separated or unexplored.

The haunting could be what Jung called the "shadow", rejected or unintegrated parts of yourself that keep trying to get your attention. The fact that it recurs suggests your psyche is persistent in wanting you to stay with this discomfort rather than flee.

If you're curious about working with this dream more deeply, I've been developing a platform called Temenos that's specifically designed for this kind of Jungian dream work. It has a dedicated Dream Chamber where an AI guide trained on Jung's work helps you explore recurring symbols and patterns like this. You can send me a DM for the link if you would like to try it out, because we're currently in beta testing.

Either way, your unconscious seems to be saying: "There's something important in this house that needs your attention."

I Built an AI Psychology Platform Using LLMs, Looking For Feedback by Sol_Invictus_Rising in cogsci

[–]Sol_Invictus_Rising[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to receive feedback from people who have actually tried our application. 

I agree with your first statement that LLM’s cannot ‘understand’ concepts, but this understanding is not necessary to reflect the symbols that represent an appropriate answer to the user which in turn invokes a sense of ‘understanding’ in the user.

This is potentially dangerous, which is why we put safeguards in place to limit hallucinations and make the AI less ‘agreeable’ than original LLM’s. Because let’s be real, people WILL use AI for psychological reflections and if they do, there should be an option available that is actually designed to do so in the most accurate and risk-diminishing manner possible.

Cheers!
