    The Masculine Wound And How To Heal It | TCM #147 (Part 1)

    There is a crisis of healthy masculinity that has been building up with distorted ideas about what it means to be a man. There is a pseudo or hyper-masculinity that is a knee-jerk reaction to feminism and the "feminization of men" and a distortion around what the mainstream calls "toxic masculinity." It's also common to label men as beta males and alpha males. However, they are two sides of the same coin of unintegrated wholesome masculinity. As a result, there is a crisis of healthy relationships between men and women, and many men suffer from depression and loss of meaning and purpose in their lives despite outer accomplishments or never living up to their full potential. They can also get stuck in "hyper-masculinity" as compensation for inner emptiness or over-simplified roleplay and personality behavior, as seen in the Manosphere and the Polarity Movement. For men who want to integrate their healthy masculinity, it is going beyond beta or alpha male labels, mindset, or personality behaviors. It's an inner journey of integrating the feminine archetypes within a man. In this podcast, we explore the different feminine elements within a man, particularly the mother complex (which is not to be mistaken for his physical mother) and the Anima, which Carl Jung related to a man's soul. We will show how the lack of integrating these inner feminine figures shows up in men's lives and why integrating them is essential for a man's happiness and relationship with the women in his life, be it his wife, partner, daughter, sister, or mother. We also talk about what a woman needs to be aware of and how she can support a man if she genuinely wants him to shine in his masculinity and receive from him what supports her. In the second hour, we explore Parsifal's search for the Holy Grail from the 12th-century King Arthur legends. The grail myth speaks of masculine psychology, depicting three stages of psychological development for a man. Modern society has lost its connection to these ancient myths. They are often taken too literally, missing the deeper message of internal transformation. These myths provide guidance and profound insight into archetypal psycho-spiritual processes. Engaging in this inner alchemy is more important than ever for a man in a world devoid of spirit and deeper meaning. Surface appearance, obsession and identification with the physical body (or complete dissociation from it), mindless consumption, and materialism overshadow the profound loss of meaning and higher purpose in a man's heart. Women will also be interested in learning about male psychology and the secrets of the Grail myth to learn more about the men in their lives, whether they are fathers, brothers, sons, husbands, or boyfriends. Show Notes Part 1: * Hyper Masculinity as a defense mechanism * The Manosphere and the Polarity Movement * Role play based on superficial gender roles and personality behavior don't address the deeper inner masculine wound * The lack of a conscious rite of passages that initiate a boy into manhood * The six primary relationships a man bears to the feminine world * Integrating his Anima and conquering the Mother Complex is one of man's most important inner work * Nothing is as dangerous to a man as an unresolved mother complex (not to be confused with the physical mother) * How the mother complex can show up * Slaying the dragon of the mother complex * The Anima and the feminine component in every man’s psychic structure * The unintegrated Anima and Anima possession * How to integrate the Anima * A man's need for feminine validation * How a woman can support a man in his process

    Soul Purpose Vs. Ego Desires: Finding Your True Path | TCM #146 (Part 1)

    This podcast is about helping you find your true path, what this will require of you, and how to differentiate between your ego desires and your deeper soul purpose. In the first hour, we discuss ego desires vs. soul purpose, the crisis of meaning society is experiencing, and how cultural conditioning influences us to follow paths that are not in alignment with who we really are. We also discuss how this relates to Carl Jung's concept of individuation; we will define it, discuss how to recognize calls to individuation in one's life, discuss what happens when one refuses the call, and lastly, explain how to know when one is on one's true path. In the second hour, we discuss why many people who talk about purpose can mislead you and why conventional approaches of self-help, mindset, and therapy often fail, what's in the way of you finding your purpose and the inner work it requires, how there can be a sense of guilt when you individuate, and how many people end up living their parents' unlived life or society's expectations unconsciously. We also share personal experiences of finding our soul purpose, how hidden hands help us when we answer the call to individuate, and how this relates to following your bliss. Show Notes Part 1: * Why many people are unhappy despite having achieved everything they thought they wanted * What are "ego desires"? * The role of the ego * Where do your desires come from? * What is the soul? * What is soul purpose? * The epidemic and trap of meaninglessness * How the ego gets influenced via cultural conditioning * Bernhard's experience of meaninglessness * The unconscious need for approval from parents, society, and our "tribe" * What individuation is and what it is not * Wholeness vs. Perfection * How the ego can hijack the process * How to recognize calls to Individuation * The trap of just "wanting to feel better" and quick fixes * What happens when you refuse the call * The necessity to face the lies you've been telling yourself without blaming others or yourself * How an outer event is a mirror of an unconscious inner process * =How to tell the difference between soul desires and ego desires * How you will know you're on your true path In Part 2 (only for members), we go deeper into: * Why many people who talk about purpose can mislead you * Why changing your mindset and CBT (Cognitive Behavior Therapy) is not enough * How conventional self-work methods, therapies, and "motivational" techniques work on the false self and can leave you more lost and unhappy in the long run * The temptation to create a new "shiny" ego-personality identity (ego inflation) * The many misconceptions about soul purpose and what it IS NOT * What soul purpose IS * How to work with desire * Bernhard's story of how he learned not to identify with anything he did or thought his purpose was * What's in the way of us finding our purpose * How complexes and our shadow hide our purpose * Overcoming the mother complex is a big hurdle for men and women in modern society * The necessity for a rite of passage and what it is * How to find your true Self and true path * Practical suggestions of shadow work to find out who you truly are. * Laura's story of individuation, overcoming the need to be "liked" and "accepted" * How there can be a sense of guilt when you begin to individuate * Individuation doesn't mean joining any groups, movements (including health or truth movements),

    How To Thrive In 2025: A PsychoSpiritual Guide | TCM #145 (Part 1)

    The past few years have left many people in a much different world than they were before. We have heard people saying that the jump from 2019 to 2024 has felt violent,intense, and almost unnatural and that they've lived five different lives in the past few years alone. This intense period of global chaos has led many to profound inner and outer transformations. The world we've known has suddenly shifted, and we now find ourselves in a much different landscape than before. Not only are many of us much different people from these experiences, but as a result, many of our relationships have entirely shifted, and for some, our work, our purpose, and our daily lives have entirely changed, too. As we near the end of 2024, with all the outer planets about to change signs in 2025, it feels like we are in a bit of a limbo state between the world we knew and the new world we are entering. The next year, 2025, will represent a massive evolutionary change for us as individuals and for the collective. Not only is this the end of the year, but with all the outer planets about to change signs, it's also the end of an ERA. It's a good time to reflect on the past years, see what you've learned, consider what has changed, and plant seeds for what you want to create in the future. In this episode, we reflect on the end of this era and how we can use the power of our creativity right now to imagine the world we want to create as we enter a new era. We discuss what to reflect on as all the outer planets change signs, how things may manifest faster as they change into air and fire, and the importance of creative visualization and noticing how thoughts become reality. We discuss the important concept of “seed people,” representing the wave of agents of change who will take us into the future and how you can become one yourself. Furthermore, we discuss the nodes switching to Pisces/Virgo and how this will bring these around mind, body, spirit, and health into focus. We also discuss the importance of following your bliss, how to find it, and the actual “secret” to reality creation and manifestation that many new-age teachings about this idea miss, oversimplify, or distort. Show Notes Part 1: * Reflection over the past 5 years and where we are now * Your psychological and emotional evolution over the past 15 years * Moments of disillusionment and confusion (Neptune in Pisces) * Questions like "Who am I? What is my purpose? What ideals are really important to me?" will take center stage with Neptune in Aries in 2025 * A good time to start a new project centered around your new visions for the person you are becoming. * Revolutions will happen in how we communicate, education, transportation, and how we use technology (Uranus in Gemini) * It's a time to move away from seeking freedom through resources and instead seeking freedom in how you express yourself * Significant change: All outer planets will be in air and fire signs * Major shift in emphasis from the feminine/yin energies of earth and water to the masculine/yang energies of fire and air * Importance of dreaming the world we want to live in, creative visualization, clearing the shadows, healing grief * Importance of taking action * The "seed people" concept by Dane Rudhyar In Part 2 (only for members), we go deeper into: * Nodes switching to Pisces - Virgo and what that means for 2025 * Karmic lessons and big themes around body-mind-spirit and health * Jupiter in Cancer and the importance of following your bliss * How to Find Your Bliss

    How Your Inner Work Fuels A Collective Awakening | TCM #144 (Part 1)

    There is a common misconception that engaging in inner work is just hiding out in a cave or at home and avoiding the world. Many people equate inner work with non-action and not standing up against evil; inner work is a passive state, and evil and darkness will succeed if we don't do something. Nothing could be further from the truth. In this episode, we explore the essential foundation of what inner work entails, using both psychological and spiritual work, how facing your shadow, wounding, healing your trauma, inner child, and inner division will positively affect the world and your personal life. We go over the different levels of consciousness, how they affect the world, and why people at higher integrated levels of consciousness have significantly more power and positive effects in the world than people at lower states of consciousness stuck in negativity and blame/victim consciousness. We examine the traps of inner work related to spiritual bypassing, why no step can be skipped, the many misconceptions about inner work, and how to avoid the common pitfalls. In the second hour, we clarify the much-discussed issue of being "black-pilled," what it is and is not, and how one's level of consciousness directly affects how one sees the world and how it affects one's life. We also discuss what keeps most people from engaging in deeper inner work and why some people are not ready for it in accordance with their soul journey and karmic lessons, how inner work leads you to find your bliss in life, and personal myth which in return also affects the world positively by being your true Self. Furthermore, we will provide concrete and practical suggestions that you can apply to your life to help you through this process. Show Notes Part 1: * What do we mean by inner work? * The foundational principles of inner work * What kind of inner work are we talking about? * Common misconceptions about inner work and shadow work * How inner work affects your personal life positively * How your inner work affects the world positively * Aspects of negativity * The majority of humans calibrate at a negative level of consciousness * How higher levels of consciousness counterbalance the majority of negativity and darkness in the world * We change the world not by what we say, have, or do but as a consequence of what we have become (level of soul embodiment) * Why our own inner evolution serves all of mankind * How negative states of consciousness contribute to the negativity and evil in the world, making it grow stronger * How to raise your frequency and enter higher levels of consciousness * How your inner work expands to alleviate the suffering of others and the darkness in the world * The inner work is far more challenging than the ego’s temptation to externalize everything In Part 2 (only for members), we go deeper into: * Being "black-pilled," what it is and is not (since there are many misconceptions) * How not to get black-pilled and take the "white pill" * How your level of consciousness directly relates to how you see the world and how it affects your life * Energy fields based on our level of consciousness are portals out of which we see the world * The lower energy fields of "Me against the world," blame/victim consciousness, life-denying, negativity * The higher energy fields of harmony with the world, empowered, life-affirming, positivity * Whatever happens in your life, you will see any event through the perception based on your level of consciousness

    Pluto in Aquarius: A New Era In Collective Evolution | TCM #143 (Part 1)

    Big changes are ahead for humanity as Pluto has entered Aquarius for good over the next 20 years. In this podcast, Laura and Bernhard discuss Pluto in Aquarius from an evolutionary astrology perspective. They discuss how Pluto relates to collective evolution, how evolution exists in two forms (involution and evolution), and how Pluto relates to our collective Karma and soul psychology. They talk about the process that Pluto transits take us through, what the shift from Pluto in Capricorn to Aquarius means for us on different levels, physically, psychologically, and spiritually, how Pluto in Aquarius relates to a struggle against the old worldview and a shift of power, and they discuss how all outer planets (Pluto, Neptune, and Uranus) changing signs in 2025 mark a significant major change for the world and how that will affect us. They also discuss how this relates to a technological revolution, how Pluto in Aquarius relates to the ongoing splitting of humanity, a transfer of power from the bureaucracy to the technocracy and the people, and how Bitcoin and crypto play a part in it. Furthermore, Laura and Bernhard discuss the lessons of Prometheus, and how Pluto in Aquarius relates to us facing our ancient Karma from Atlantis and how it relates to Transhumanism, Black Magic, and hyperdimensional forces - the spirits of darkness that attempt to take over humanity, how a collective “spiritual vacuum” serves as an “entry point” for these occult forces to come in, the major lessons for us, and more. Show Notes Part 1: * The "True Sky" vs. Western Astrology debate * Pluto's role in evolutionary astrology * Involution and Evolution (Destruction and Creation) * Soul Psychology and Pluto as the Lord of the Underworld * We are all alive during Pluto in Aquarius because we all have certain karma to work out, both as individuals and collectives * The necessity to make the darkness conscious and facing difficult truths * Why most people shy away from the process Pluto demands * There are great gifts for those brave enough to descent into the depths of their own personal darkness to face their deepest fears * The Plutonian Death-Rebirth Process * The Law of Descent and Ascent * The division and polarization we see in the world are a reflection of the fracturing in the collective soul or our inner fragmentation * Disembodiment, Trauma, and Head-centric living have created a spiritual vacuum * Pluto is demanding that we face our collective karma regarding Aquarian themes * How Pluto in Capricorn manifested (2008-2024) * Pluto in Capricorn, from an evolutionary astrology perspective, has to do with repression, suppression, and depression * The ultimate lesson of Pluto in Capricorn * The necessity to process the emotional trauma of the past 15 years to have the opportunity to use Pluto in Aquarius for individuation * Pluto in Aquarius presents an opportunity for those individuated souls (Aquarius) to use their creativity (Leo polarity) to help humanity forge a new vision for the future * The polarization in America and the world won't be solved overnight - the splitting of humanity will continue * The increase of subcultures, fringe groups, alternative communities, ideological fanaticism, and cults * Even more significant changes ahead: Neptune in Aries (2025 - 2039) and Uranus in Gemini (2025 - 2033) * Will we develop our INNER TECHNOLOGY instead of just becoming dependent on OUTER TECHNOLOGY? * Will technology evolve into a technocratic dystopian nightmare? Or will this be the dawning of a new golden age? * Trump, Musk, RFK JR. as evolutionary forces in the context of Pluto in Aquarius * The ultimate lessons of Pluto in Aquarius and what to do t...

    Navigating The Timeline Split | TCM #142 (Part 1)

    The world seems to have split into two distinct timelines, two different perceptions of reality. This has become more pronounced since the 2020 Saturn-Pluto conjunction. Polarization in the US seems to be increasing, and as we head into Pluto in Aquarius, this fragmentation may become more pronounced. With Trump getting elected, one side of the US is in mourning, believing that the US is now under a fascist dictatorship where all of their rights are being taken away, while the other side is celebrating what feels like a win for truth, freedom, and humanity. Some people also refuse to get involved in what is going on. They want to be "left alone," so to speak. Many think this is just another "s-election" with two wings of the same bird. Some people take the "non-dual" spiritual bypass, using the higher concept that "all is one" to avoid acknowledging the subjective experience. Another side has become completely "black-pilled," stuck in a doom-and-gloom mindset, prepping for the end times. They can't see any good in what has happened because they see humanity rushing to a transhumanism technocracy with no way out. In this podcast, we discuss the different points of view that we are seeing and how to navigate the ongoing timeline split. We also discuss the major transits and aspects affecting the US, the World, and humanity from an evolutionary astrology perspective, how Saturn-Pluto conjunctions manifest in Psychological Splitting, and more.
