[Music]
00:13
so I'm gonna read an extract tonight
00:15
from a book called beyond the mist by
00:18
Peter O'Connor is a psychologist and he
00:21
shows us how ancient Irish mythology can
00:23
be used to understand the universal
00:26
teams and conflicts that have affected
00:28
humankind throughout the course of time
00:31
in chapters 4 & 6 of his book Peter
00:34
O'Connor described two gods and
00:36
goddesses of the Gaelic Pantheon and he
00:38
showed us that true their
00:40
characteristics and activities they
00:42
metaphorically represent these aspects
00:45
of the human psyche symbolic concepts
00:48
within ourselves which must be Concord
00:51
to understand chapter 6 the goddesses
00:55
the feminine archetypes warriors
01:00
mythology has an essentially feminine
01:01
quality and female deities featuring so
01:04
many stories of the land and the islands
01:06
that lie off the coast this has been
01:08
suggested and a matriarchal culture
01:11
preceded the patriarchal one well this
01:13
may be true the more likely explanation
01:15
is that the feminine is a
01:17
personification of the fertility of the
01:20
land this personification is often in
01:23
the figure of the sovereign queen with
01:25
him the mortal aspirant for kingship
01:27
must have union if he is to rule the
01:31
Celtic notion of sacral kingship would
01:34
seem to find its equivalent in the
01:36
medieval alchemical idea of the hero's
01:39
gamos or the Climaco wedding which led
01:42
to the creation of the philosopher's
01:44
stone whilst the gods heroic attributes
01:48
give him a certain measure of power and
01:49
independence there always seems to be in
01:52
order power which ensures that they are
01:54
not completely masters of their own
01:56
destiny the Greek father God Zeus is
02:00
seen as obeying some higher power
02:03
variously named as fathom or Moira the
02:07
word fathom is the origin of our English
02:10
word fate in turn derived from the verb
02:14
fare to speak and is translated to mean
02:18
that which has been spoken in this
02:22
it is a form of divine decree within the
02:26
Greek mythological tradition two faiths
02:28
or more a retreat old women the
02:31
daughters of Nix the night cloth all
02:35
span that the thread of life lattices a
02:38
scienter each person his or her destiny
02:40
and atropos carried the shears that
02:42
caught the tread a debt it is said that
02:46
they arrived shortly after the birth of
02:48
a child to decide upon the course of the
02:49
child's life
02:50
they were also invoked at marriage to
02:53
ensure that the union was a healthy one
02:55
and finally when the end of life
02:57
approached that had to be summoned to
02:59
cut the thread indeed the whole of the
03:02
life was shattered by the fates and it
03:04
takes little thought to perceive the
03:06
parallel of the face to the theme of
03:08
life death and renewal that so
03:11
characterizes Irish mythology it seems
03:14
plausible therefore that the other power
03:16
behind the gods is the inevitability of
03:19
this cycle to which all are subjected
03:22
God's included Irish goddesses are
03:26
usually that depicted as triple
03:28
goddesses emphasizing their link to the
03:31
tree fates the triple goddess
03:33
personifies a state of wholeness she is
03:36
the symbol of the eternal state and the
03:38
goal itself which is the acceptance an
03:40
integration of the tree processes of
03:42
birth life and death the figure of the
03:46
triple goddess of Ireland could be seen
03:47
as personifying the fourth state that
03:49
emerges out of her embodiment of the
03:51
tree I only become preoccupied at
03:55
renewal or beginnings in a pattern that
03:57
Young has determined the pure child
04:00
archetype this pattern can most readily
04:03
be seen in connection with relationships
04:05
for some people more often men can only
04:08
ever begin relationships usually in a
04:10
highly sexualized manner yet within a
04:13
short period of time the relationship
04:14
ends since the addiction is to the
04:17
excitement of beginnings not to relating
04:20
and the possibility of growth orders may
04:24
become obsessed by the fear of death and
04:26
lose all sight of life and beginnings as
04:28
they plummet into depression here the
04:30
relationship pattern is one of not
04:32
getting involved because of the belief
04:34
that it will not last yet orders hang on
04:38
to life
04:39
refusing to concede that the only
04:41
permanent thing is change itself thereby
04:44
denying themselves the possibility of
04:46
renewal relationships caught in this
04:49
pattern simply become stagnant and often
04:52
moribund since change is perceived as a
04:55
threat to order and fixity and these
04:58
relationships libido is often sacrificed
05:00
on the altar of security the goal of
05:05
individuation as a spouse were young may
05:07
well be homeless but this in turn
05:09
constitutes a willingness to accept the
05:11
inevitability of the never-ending cycle
05:13
of life death and renewal the task of
05:16
consciousness then would be to come to
05:18
grips with the realization that we are
05:20
permanently in flux we must be prepared
05:23
at times to let go of our attachment to
05:26
certain possessions and views in order
05:28
to let time Atos death do its work
05:32
allowing them to die as a necessary
05:34
priyad to the renewal process if the ego
05:39
and the persona dominate our being then
05:41
we cannot yield to the inevitable since
05:43
we would be preoccupied with control and
05:45
the end result is that we get stuck in
05:48
the illusion that what we see is all
05:50
there is
05:53
dhannu Donna I know this is generally
05:57
accepted that I knew Danny or Donna and
06:01
one in the same deity and that she is
06:03
the mother of the gods but just as the
06:06
fact that is seen as the father of the
06:07
tribe Daniel was not literally damned
06:10
order rather I knew or Donna is a
06:12
fertility goddess associated with the
06:15
plenty and prosperity of the land she is
06:18
described as the one who nurtures well
06:20
the gods the province of Monster in the
06:24
southwest of Ireland is said to always
06:26
fertility to our new and to Melton's and
06:29
carrier known as the paps of our new the
06:32
mythical tribal datura headed annan are
06:34
of course the people of the goddess
06:37
tanya on que la Fiera the hag of the era
06:44
another much less written about a female
06:46
figure who was
06:47
mother goddess but possibly much earlier
06:50
than Donna mystical a tiara
06:52
the old hag of the BR Peninsula and West
06:55
Cork she is a complex figure and would
06:58
appear to be a predecessor to the Celts
07:00
themselves she's also a corn goddess and
07:03
associated with the protection of
07:05
fertility indeed in one story she puts a
07:09
debt a succession of male Reapers who
07:11
failed to match her prowess with the
07:13
sickle the story reflects a frequent
07:16
mythological team of a local hero and
07:18
the female day at the opposing each
07:20
other in a reaping contest in which the
07:23
female deity symbolizing fertility
07:25
inevitably triumphs her order
07:29
manifestations include a role as shaper
07:31
of the land itself it is said that she
07:34
dropped Karin's on the hill of mead out
07:36
of her apron and that she was
07:38
responsible for creating many of the
07:40
rocks and islands around the southwest
07:41
coast of Ireland deep ravines and
07:44
valleys as a result of her having run
07:46
her nails across the landscape in the
07:49
not a roll she is seen as symbolizing
07:51
the wilds forces of nature especially
07:53
storms at sea this role is strongly
07:56
associated with the Halle where the
07:58
people of the eora Peninsula she is also
08:02
a symbol of longevity and is said to
08:05
have passed her seven periods of ute and
08:07
all day so that her children
08:08
grandchildren and great-grandchildren
08:10
and the people in tribes of Ireland
08:13
those she represents three aspects of
08:16
the feminine young maiden mother and old
08:20
crone the calyx is also the sovereign
08:24
Queen under the name Bree she appears as
08:28
the wife of lived a divine prototype of
08:30
kingship these roles all illustrate the
08:33
more regardless function and the
08:35
associations with nature and fertility
08:37
which may suggest that she is a very
08:39
early goddess who perhaps the
08:41
continental celts incorporated into
08:44
their pantheon to symbolize the land of
08:47
ireland itself
08:48
she's believed to be embody today in a
08:51
special stone that stands overlooking to
08:53
see near are a reason cork where she
08:56
awaits the return of her husband man and
08:59
man lord of the sea
09:02
Brigit of rigid another composite early
09:06
figure is bridget who later became the
09:08
Christian Saint Brigid sometimes she is
09:11
seen as interchangeable with Daniel and
09:13
she's also described as a daughter of
09:15
the doctor however she is mostly seen in
09:18
her own right as a goddess adored by
09:20
poets blacksmiths and physicians
09:22
she's also associated with childbirth
09:24
fertility and the hearth and this
09:28
capacity she could readily be seen as
09:30
the Irish equivalent of some composite
09:32
Hestia act and his figure from Greek
09:34
mythology the latter being associated
09:37
with childbirth and the farmer with the
09:39
hearth her festival in the first of
09:42
August is called in bulk which is one of
09:46
the four great Irish seasonal festivals
09:48
imbolg is a pagan Spring Festival and is
09:51
associated with the lactation of use
09:53
linking Brigid to fertility and the
09:56
abundance of animals she was
09:59
appropriated by Christianity and became
10:01
Saint Brigid but has nevertheless
10:03
preserved much of her original character
10:05
since Saint Brigid is associated with
10:07
childbirth and folklore has it that she
10:10
was the Midwife of the Virgin Mary in
10:13
her Christian capacity she is also
10:15
considered to bring abundance to the
10:16
country hairs that she visits and as an
10:19
Irish Saint she takes second place only
10:22
the st. Patrick she and the Chi lock
10:25
indicate a persistent presence of these
10:28
fertility goddesses right up to the
10:30
present time the land of Ireland is
10:33
still the goddesses no matter what name
10:36
she goes by Martha Martha is one of a
10:43
group of Irish goddesses who are
10:44
concerned with war fertility and
10:47
prosperity blonde she is sometimes
10:49
perceived as one goddess and sometimes
10:51
as tree but either way she represents
10:53
the sovereignty and fertility of Ireland
10:55
and covers an enormous period of time
10:58
from the mythological prehistory period
11:00
to to the beginning of the Christian era
11:02
she gave her name to remain maha the
11:05
seat of the ancient kings of ulster maka
11:09
is connected to the festival of lúnasa
11:11
the harvest festival and the first of
11:12
August
11:14
and interesting aspect of these later
11:16
goddesses is the explicit appearance of
11:19
warlike capacities in the earlier
11:22
figures were like our destructive
11:24
aspects are embedded in the goddesses
11:26
associations with nature such as the Chi
11:29
lots personification as a goddess of the
11:31
wildness of nature in the later
11:34
goddesses it is clearly developed role
11:36
perhaps symbolizing the heroic males
11:39
increasing consciousness of the power of
11:42
nature to control his fate the first of
11:46
the three markers the wife of new med
11:48
takes us back to the book of invasions
11:51
and the arrival of the numidians the
11:53
third group of invaders to settle in
11:55
Ireland following severe and path alone
11:58
she prophesized a destruction that would
12:00
be wrought when conics fought Ulster
12:02
offered a great ground ball of Coulee
12:04
and the burden of this four side caused
12:06
her to die of a broken heart the account
12:10
of this battle is known simply as the
12:12
Tom it constitutes the greatest heroic
12:15
tale of Ireland with the central role
12:17
being played by the hero :
12:20
mother died on one of the twelve plains
12:23
cleared by her husband in the Med and
12:24
the plane is named after her this figure
12:28
of Maha is clearly an agrarian deity
12:30
associated with the clearing and
12:32
cultivation of the land and hence
12:34
predominantly a fertility goddess the
12:37
second maka maka the red was the
12:40
daughter of one of the tree aging kings
12:42
of Ireland who ruled alternately each
12:44
for seven years mythic history places
12:48
them around the six to fourth century BC
12:52
when Marcos father died she was elected
12:54
to rule but the order to Kings refused
12:57
to give her to throne because she was a
12:58
woman in the war that followed the
13:01
victorious mother banished one of her
13:03
rivals to Connacht marrying the order
13:06
and making him chief of chief of her
13:07
army the five stones of the banished
13:11
King then sought to contest the trial
13:12
but she visited a man disguised as a
13:15
leper
13:15
she enticed them one by one to live with
13:19
her and in turn bound each of them to
13:21
slavery maka the red is clearly the
13:25
warrior goddess dominating
13:28
the third of the markers the wife of
13:31
quant you conforms to the familiar
13:34
mythological fairy tale theme of the
13:36
supernatural bride who lives happily
13:38
with a mortal husband until he violates
13:41
it to do with the result that she dies
13:43
one day a beautiful woman walked into
13:47
the house of a peasant widow named
13:50
crunchy without speaking a word she said
13:53
about doing the housework and at night
13:55
she made the ritualistic right-handed
13:57
journey around the room anti-clockwise
14:00
being an almond of bad fortune and
14:02
entered crunches bed she became pregnant
14:05
by him and through this union he
14:08
prospered greatly at this point in the
14:11
story maca embodies the sovereign Queen
14:13
as union with the archetype of feminine
14:16
is a source of fertility corn Chu was
14:20
required to attend an assembly of all
14:22
Ulsterman attire and before he set off
14:25
maca warned him not to mention her name
14:27
nor speak of her at the Assembly at the
14:30
Assembly much was made of the ability of
14:32
the king's horses with the poet singing
14:35
their praises and exalting their
14:36
swiftness Crone true forgot Marcos
14:39
warning and declared that his wife could
14:42
run faster than any of the king's horses
14:45
the king took up the challenge and
14:48
ordered crunch you to bring his wife to
14:50
race against his horses in vain maca
14:54
protested and asked for a delay as it
14:56
was closely given birth but the King
14:58
insisted that she race or he would put
15:02
country to death release raced and beat
15:06
the Kings horses but as she finished he
15:08
cried out in pain and gave birth to two
15:10
twins the exertion prove fatal for maca
15:15
and she died in giving birth who at her
15:18
last breath she cursed the men of ulster
15:20
for nine times nine generations a point
15:23
of great peril the men of ulster would
15:25
suffer the sickness of childbirth and
15:28
therefore would be too tired and weak to
15:31
fight in battle some scholars have
15:34
interpreted this curse which is called
15:36
the novena of the Ulsterman
15:38
as a form of the practice amongst
15:40
primitive
15:41
people's called kavadi whereby the
15:45
husband of a woman in childbirth has
15:47
opposed upon him the same seclusion and
15:49
precautions as upon the mother the aim
15:52
of this appears to be that the husband
15:54
will take on the pain of the woman
15:56
thereby assisting in the birth process
15:58
process a second interpretation of
16:03
discouraged says that it serves to
16:04
underline the power of other world women
16:06
and disappear eerie arity of their power
16:09
to that of the male warrior a third
16:11
explanation is that the curse being
16:14
activated at a time of war is a symbolic
16:17
mime in honor of the mother goddess in
16:20
this sense it is an act of propitiation
16:22
aimed at given the Warriors protection
16:25
in the forthcoming battle in this third
16:29
marker we see we can see the dominance
16:31
of the functions of childbirth
16:33
nurturance and fertility thus the three
16:36
markers presents maternal reproductive
16:39
power nurturance fertility and war like
16:42
our sexual attributes of the three one
16:46
can be seen to fulfill don't do miss a
16:48
source or a function with her prophecy
16:50
of a future period of destruction maka
16:54
the read fulfills the function of force
16:56
with her warrior like behavior and the
16:58
third marker represents fertility the
17:02
use of threes is a dominant feature of
17:05
Irish mythology and may well a symbolize
17:07
some sense of totality itself for
17:10
example in the realm of time it might
17:11
represent past present and future and
17:13
relation to space the qualities of ahead
17:16
behind and here it can also be seen as
17:20
representing the dimensions of BIRT sky
17:23
and sea and christianity uses
17:26
triplication in the notion of the holy
17:28
trinity in Egyptian mythology it is
17:32
represented in the figures of Osiris
17:34
Isis and Horus within the alchemical
17:37
tradition it exists industry stages of
17:40
Negrito albedo and rebate o philosophy
17:45
has its own version of it in Hegel's
17:47
thesis antithesis and synthesis
17:50
consistent throughout these various
17:52
examples is the assault from that tree
17:54
equals war
17:55
and that the whole is greater than the
17:56
storm of the parents Irish mythology Dan
17:59
is not unique in this incorporation of
18:01
trees but the extent to which they are
18:03
used is striking the marina there is one
18:09
group of treatment female deities that
18:11
can lay special claim to the title of
18:13
goddess of war and that is the group
18:16
known as the marina the persons of this
18:19
trio are not always the same but usually
18:22
comprised above crow
18:24
the Morrigan the queen of phantoms and
18:26
either the main which is panic or maha
18:30
these war goddesses do not normally
18:32
engage in iron combat combat as their
18:35
weapons belong to the magical world of
18:37
sorcery and inspired dread and terror
18:41
domain for example creates planet
18:44
amongst fighting men and in a battle
18:47
against you Holland a hundred warriors
18:49
fell dead when they heard her cry even
18:53
when the goddess of war is enticed to
18:54
take part in battle to reduce or by
18:57
magic often appearing in animal form so
19:01
the Morrigan attacks to Holland in the
19:04
shape of an eel which winds itself
19:06
around his legs at a time she appears as
19:09
a wolf and drives a frightened herd of
19:11
cattle Adam who Collins has burned her
19:14
overtures of love and ungraciously
19:16
declared that he had no need of a
19:19
woman's help Bob appears as a crow and
19:22
in this form she lands on her holland
19:25
shoulder as a portent of his imminent
19:28
debt signaling that it is safe to
19:30
approach and behead him Bob is
19:34
essentially a prophetess of debt and
19:36
finds her direct equivalent in atropos
19:39
the faith who cuts the thread of life
19:43
Bob also finds her contemporary
19:45
expression in the banshee
19:47
the Irish fairy who's crying is a
19:49
portent of death she also appears in the
19:52
role of water at the fort
19:55
washing the irons and clothes of a
19:57
warrior who is to die shortly
19:59
the Morrigan can plays a similar role as
20:02
the harbinger of death both the Morrigan
20:06
and bath also have powerful sex
20:09
and bob has been described as a femme
20:11
fatale who profanes the hero and then
20:14
leads him to his death when the doctor
20:17
mates with DeMorgan she symbolizes the
20:19
sovereign Queen ensuring the fertility
20:21
of the land these three figures that
20:24
constitute the Marikina are
20:26
interchangeable but as a single or
20:28
triple figure they are personifications
20:31
of nature in both her life-giving and
20:33
life destroying capacities man in the
20:37
form of a hero sets out to conquer
20:39
nature in order to have it serve him
20:41
this of course finds its psychological
20:45
parallel in the heroic role that the
20:47
eagle was play in facilitating a measure
20:49
of consciousness of the life-giving or
20:51
eros qualities and a life destroying our
20:54
time' those qualities of the unconscious
20:57
mind mature sister marina is not a
21:02
figure that can be easily overcome
21:04
neither can the unconscious be conquered
21:07
in any complete sense this round like
21:11
the marina is the source of both being

our own version of a sacrum our age with
21:20
the sovereign queen of our lives are to
21:23
remain fertile dreams and the paying of
21:27
attention to them are of course a simple
21:30
means of enacting this ritual ignoring
21:33
or rejecting the marina as to who
21:36
lenders can only bring about our death
21:39
psychologically speaking the deaths of
21:42
consciousness the Crowl of depression
21:46
sitting on our shoulders are the eel of
21:48
anxiety winding around us can be signs
21:51
of this death which we must struggle to
21:54
understand if we are not to succumb to
21:56
the meaninglessness a specific form of
21:59
debt in itself Queen Maeve Queen behave
22:04
of conduct is described as being
22:06
sexually promiscuous it's a set of heard
22:08
that never wash you without one man in
22:11
the shadow of another she made it with
22:14
at least knowing mortal kings and
22:16
refused to allow any king to rule in
22:18
Tara who had not first mated with her
22:21
this man
22:22
her out as a mythological sovereign
22:24
queen with her promiscuity symbolizing
22:27
the fertility of the land itself the
22:30
most important story concerning Queen
22:32
Maeve is the kapre weight of clearly
22:34
which belongs to deal store cycle may
22:38
this jealous of her husband King a lil
22:40
who possesses a magnificent right ball
22:43
Maeve hears of a fabulous Brown ball and
22:46
sends her army to invade Ulster to
22:47
acquire it
22:49
during the battle that follow she
22:51
appears as a warrior in fighting her I'm
22:53
at the fight and several times she
22:55
pissed her wits against the Ulster hero
22:57
who haulin so she is associated with war
23:00
debt and fertility some may ask why
23:04
there is no Irish equivalent of venus
23:07
aphrodite Makana suggests that the
23:10
mythological personification of sexual
23:12
love is bound up in the role of the
23:14
irish goddess as sovereign queen and a
23:18
personification of the fertility of the
23:20
land as George death points as a points
23:23
out to wonder that we do not find the
23:26
goddess presenting this character to the
23:28
exclusion of all others is to George
23:30
Celtic mythology with foreign standards
23:33
and so to condemn oneself to a
23:35
misconstruction of its intimate system
23:39
attained r18 aldo betaine is not usually
23:43
presented as a deity she can
23:45
nevertheless be considered to be a
23:46
goddess since she is twice born and her
23:49
lives cover an enormous expanse of time
23:51
in addition she plays a role as a
23:54
sovereign Queen in relating the famous
23:57
story of the wearing of attained I have
24:00
relied in three major sources one is a
24:03
very comprehensive version of the
24:05
stories by Jeffrey Gans the second is
24:07
from the Irish scholar Moyles Dillon and
24:10
the third a recent imaginative version
24:12
from a Rohini
24:14
the story commences with the birth of
24:16
Angus who was conceived from the union
24:19
between the Dagda and Balin and was then
24:21
fostered out to Madeira m'dear who was
24:24
also known as Madeira prayer because he
24:26
wore such magnificent clothes lived with
24:28
his wife Phil knock who truly in truly
24:31
splendid surroundings in the she at
24:34
Briony funeral
24:36
was both knowledgeable and clever and
24:38
was very well-versed in magic and
24:40
sorcery since she had been reared by the
24:42
druid bretzel
24:44
Medea was very attached to Angus I was
24:47
missing him since Angus had moved into
24:49
his own she I bring a point but they
24:52
decide to visit him and when he arrived
24:54
he found Angus sitting Angus sitting on
24:57
a mound watching a group of boys playing
24:59
suddenly a fight broke out between the
25:01
boys and Medea decided to intervene to
25:04
break it up it was not easy to part them
25:07
and as he struggled to do so a spring of
25:09
holly was hurled at him putting out one
25:11
of his eyes he gathered up his eye from
25:14
the ground and returned to Angus
25:16
complaining that now that he was
25:18
blemished he would not be able to see
25:20
and rule over the land he had come from
25:23
Madeira blamed Angus person that he had
25:27
ever come to see him but Angus told him
25:30
that they would go and find a physician
25:31
Dean kicked the laughter was summoned
25:35
and it was not long before he had
25:37
returned Madeira side to a socket and
25:38
the healing process had begun however
25:41
Madeira demanded compensation for the
25:44
injury and Angus ever ready to police
25:46
his foster father agreed to meet his
25:49
request as part of his compensation
25:51
Madeira wanted the fairest maiden in
25:53
Ireland orders say that the following
25:56
that following the healing of his eye
25:58
Madeira wanted to leave Bruna Boyne but
26:00
Angus pleaded with him to stay madeira
26:03
agreed on the condition that Angus give
26:05
him a chariot worth seven Kamal's female
26:08
slaves and clothing appropriate to my
26:10
rank and the fairest woman in area Angus
26:14
agreed to the conditions are set off to

26:41
natural father the doctor who met his
26:43
son's request and then one night cleared
26:46

favored the rivers overnight a nil now
27:03

palace and prevent Madeira from entering
40:53
forever at the dew moment Madeira
40:55
suddenly appeared in their mists while
40:58
the king was banqueting Madeira declared
41:01
white his promised is now Jew he then
41:04
embraced detain and as he did so they
41:07
were always open to the air and were
41:09
transformed into two beautiful swans who
41:12
flew out of the palace through an
41:13
opening in the roof
41:15
from there they flew to brely where
41:18
attained was rejoined her kinfolk the
41:21
two-headed Allan your good full of grief
41:25
and anger at the last maintained was
41:26
also furious that Madeira tricked him
41:28
and made up his mind to retrieve his
41:30
wife he traversed all aboard and digging
41:32
up every fairy mountain could find for
41:34
he knew now knew that she had been taken
41:37
by one of the folk of the other world to
41:39
his dismay however every time he dug up
41:42
a mound by the next morning morning all
41:44
of the dirt had been replaced exactly as
41:47
it has originally been you could was on
41:50
the third and some say that he continued
41:53
to take a fairy mounds for nine years
41:56
finally in desperation he sought the
41:58
advice of a druid who revealed that
42:00
Madeira entertainer at really justice
42:04
Joker was making his assault on really
42:06
Madeira called the truce and offered to
42:08
return attain to him the next day with
42:11
m'dear using his magical gift strict
42:13
yoghurt and at the appointed third era
42:15
of the following day fifty women are
42:17
looking exactly like attained appeared
42:20
imperiously Madeira declared that you
42:22
could could have attained but he
42:24
identify the tree retain you could
42:28
remember how beautifully a tainted barn
42:30
Ryan so he could request it at each of
42:32
the women before Matt asked each woman
42:35
in turn poured until there were only two
42:37
left and that's the second last one we
42:39
talked to George and started the poor
42:40
you could spontaneously declared that
42:43
she was attained claimed her and
42:45
returned with her to Terra much later
42:49
when Italian was pregnant you could
42:51
discover it again through the ages of
42:53
Madeira that the woman he had chosen was
42:55
not attained but his own daughter since
42:58
his wife was pregnant with her when she
43:00
flew away with Madeira kneeling in
43:03
horror from this incestuous union he
43:06
declared to the gods
43:07
never will I look upon the daughter of
43:08
my daughter and he arranged that when
43:11
the child was born two members of his
43:13
household were take a child and throw it
43:15
into a pit of wild beasts the two
43:19
servants could not bring themselves to
43:21
shroud a tiny infant into the pit but
43:23
left her in an isolated herdsman hood
43:25
with a bitch and her pups when the
43:29
herdsmen and his wife returned they were
43:31
astonished to find the infant would
43:33
accepted her own hesitatingly and reared
43:36
her as if he was their own child she in
43:39
accordance with her divine heritage
43:41
prospered and displayed exceptional
43:44
beauty and skill in due course she was
43:47
discovered by a prince a frame it had
43:49
been prophesized that he would marry a
43:51
woman of unknown origin and that she
43:54
would bear him of trials this Julie
43:57
happens and that child became the
44:00
legendary Connor and more the central
44:03
character in a later Ulster story
44:05
entitled the destruction of the Darger's
44:08
hostel the weaving of attaining is a
44:12
mysterious and haunting tale that
44:14
captures the essence of the Irish
44:16
mythological world it has a sense of
44:18
timelessness as it moves between two
44:20
worlds the natural and supernatural the
44:22
mortal under divine attain is
44:25
undoubtedly a symbol of life debt and
44:27
renewal some scholars notably McCulloch
44:30
and Ganz have suggested that the ancient
44:32
Irish held ideas of reincarnation which
44:35
are symbolized
44:36
in the mythic steam of rebirth certainly
44:39
the archaeological evidence points to
44:41
the ancient Celts burying their dead
44:42
with the clear intention of providing
44:44
for a journey indicating a firm belief
44:47
in the Otherworld and perhaps we burned
44:50
many of the other divinities do not
44:53
appear to die per se but live for
44:55
generations of generation as seen in the
44:58
figure I retain the fact that the tally
45:00
was transformed into a beautiful crimson
45:02
fly is also of some significance in the
45:05
mythological context for example the
45:08
ancient Greeks believed that the soul
45:09
could travel from one life to another in
45:11
insect form the idea of incarnation
45:16
would presumably have been anathema to
45:18
the Christian scribes and it is possible
45:20
that many more direct references to
45:22
these beliefs have been edited out hence
45:25
we are left with stories that mainly
45:27
point towards these beliefs rather than
45:29
stating them whoever belief in rebirth
45:32
is entirely consistent with the pattern
45:34
of life dead and renewal that salt
45:36
provides Irish mythology in this context
45:40
we can also see eating as a seasonal
45:42
goddess symbolizing the death and
45:44
rebirth of the crops which links her to
45:46
take Demeter and Persephone of Greek
45:48
mythology Heaton is also of course a
45:52
sovereign Queen figure when King yogurt
45:55
summons his people to Terra and they
45:56
refuse to come because he is without a
45:58
wife he is reminded that in order to be
46:00
a rightful king of the gland he has
46:02
first to be accepted as a legitimate
46:04
spouse of the goddess who personifies
46:07
the land itself without this Union the
46:10
land could not prosper and will remain
46:12
infertile
46:14
finally within the Jungian
46:16
methodological framework attain is an
46:19
archetype of feminine are more precisely
46:21
the archetypal anima her archetypal
46:25
status is confirmed by the company she
46:27
keeps the gods
46:28
m'dear and Angus the gods of Mythology
46:32
re archetypes of young and their
46:34
territory so to speak is what Young has
46:37
termed the collective unconscious the
46:40
collective psyche is not something we
46:42
acquire as a result of our personal
46:44
history but rather as a consequence of
46:47
the history of species in
46:49
since it is permanent and continuous
46:52
unlike the divine figures cannot die but
46:55
many passes from one generation to the
46:57
next
46:58
yogurt as a mortal figure has to compete
47:01
with a supernatural rival for a
47:03
relationship with the feminine in the
47:05
figure of attained this represents the
47:08
task of building a personal relationship
47:10
with the anima or feminine aspects of
47:13
our being the task of developing a
47:15
conscious awareness of our feelings and
47:17
then in son's capacity belt to connect
47:19
and to communicate them if the feminine
47:24
remains of the archetypal level then
47:26
feelings remain and personal stereotyped
47:29
and invariably projected I would rather
47:31
than seen as part of ourselves so a man
47:33
for example we project a fantasy image
47:35
of the ideal woman on to a real woman
47:37
and she won't have the unnerving feeling
47:39
that the intense relationship Lea is
47:41
experiencing is really not much to do
47:43
with her but with some fantasy about her
47:46
design pattern is manifested by women
47:49
when they project the archetypal animus
47:51
onto mortal men the relationship will
47:54
have a peculiar impersonal quality about
47:56
it being on the receiving end of such
48:00
projections is often described by the
48:01
phrase he or she is full-on
48:05
relationships starting out with this
48:07
intensity usually finish as quickly as
48:09
they started and very often have a
48:11
distinctly obsessional and possessive
48:13
quality to be in the grip of archetypal
48:16
images and energy is to be impersonal or
48:18
not really present to the self or others
48:21
this can take the form of idealization
48:24
where there's absolutely no perception
48:26
of negatives or intense denigration and
48:28
rage where there exists no positives
48:32
from this latter position murder and
48:34
mayhem are easy since the constraint of
48:36
the awareness of the other as such does
48:39
not exist this we normally call madness
48:43
the figure of yogurt is the hero of this
48:46
story and within contemporary psychology
48:49
mythology he's associated with the ego
48:52
the role of the ego like that of the
48:54
hero in the ancient stories is to
48:56
journey the unknown lands your
48:58
unconscious and there to confront
49:01
unknown and frightening figures that
49:03
symbolize aspects of our own being these
49:07
are figures for which Jung would use
49:09
such terms as the shadow or anima and
49:11
animus if the hero or heroine
49:15
successfully completes the journey then
49:17
the ego is altered by the experience
49:20
this is you he manifested in the
49:22
maturing of the personality which in
49:25
turn is reflected in an increase in
49:28
tolerance of ambiguity
49:30
however the heroic figure is often
49:33
reluctant to undertake the journey
49:35
preferring instead to adhere to fixed
49:37
years about him or herself and the world
49:41
in Jungian psychology the figure of the
49:44
king usually represents the ruling
49:46
principle of the psyche our dulls values
49:48
and attitudes with which the ego is
49:51
identified and which occur in everyday
49:52
behavior those weaker seeking yoga's
49:56
relationship with the attained as the
49:58
interaction of the ego with the
50:00
archetypal feminine a necessary first
50:03
step in ensuring the fertility of one's
50:06
own growth and maturation as an
50:09
individual Madeira is a complex figure
50:13
but perhaps could be seen as the
50:14
negative animus the negative animus is
50:18
considered to represent archetypal
50:20
negative masculine qualities such as
50:23
fixed opinions and is essentially
50:25
antagonistic to feminine values such as
50:27
relationships receptiveness ambiguity
50:30
and feelings the desire of the negative
50:33
animus is to disconnect and we have
50:36
already seen disconnection is at times a
50:39
vital factor enabling the process of
50:41
change to recore and is an essential
50:44
part of the cycle of eternal change
50:46
however if the negative animus is a
50:49
dominating force within a woman site it
50:51
can result in a sad history of one
50:53
fulfilling relationship with men and
50:55
finds us parallel
50:56
in maderas actions with regards to
50:58
attain madeira keeps he turned to
51:01
himself and prevents her having a
51:03
relationship with yogurt this is another
51:06
way of saying that the archetypal
51:07
negative animus resists any emergence of
51:11
the feminine attribute of feeling the
51:14
conscious development of this more eros
51:16
based quality would create a sense of
51:19
connection and this is the very
51:20
phenomenon that the negative animus
51:22
works against like his Greek equivalent
51:27
hades Madeira books the feminine into
51:30
the other world below the surface of
51:32
consciousness from the lsat we see his
51:35
disdain for of the feminine as he simply
51:37
demands the most beautiful woman in
51:39
Ireland that then returns with her to
51:41
his wife one sperm lock may well be a
51:44
negative anima figure her rage is
51:47
understandable what are people's
51:49
positions our needs seem irrelevant to
51:51
Madeira to proud and some women the
51:54
negative animus can lead to a certain
51:56
immaturity would anyone holding a
51:58
different view seen as unequivocally
52:00
wrong the extreme wings of the women's
52:03
movement with their rigid adherence to
52:05
ideological purity reflect the presence
52:08
of the negative animus in men this
52:11
presence is seen in a rigid patriarchal
52:14
position that does not allow feminine
52:16
attributes and a legitimacy Medeiros
52:19
hope is that attain will simply stay in
52:21
the other world freely with him forever
52:23
I'm not having life in the everyday
52:25
world Madeira the proud may also
52:27
symbolize and narcissistic structure
52:30
within the personality but yearns for
52:33
possession not relationship for power
52:35
over orders rather than a relationship
52:37
with others
52:38
this is a typical masculine pattern and
52:41
men as part of the maturation have to
52:44
work against a narcissistic position
52:46
that regards those who are different as
52:48
inferior this applies particularly to
52:52
their possession perception of women and
52:54
feminine values you could behavior
52:59
throughout the story depicts a
53:00
psychological task of forming a personal
53:02
relationship with the feminine
53:03
attributes within himself and not
53:06
leaving them entirely in the original
53:08
archetype or form
53:10
his first contact with the teen is
53:11
essentially archetypal insofar as he
53:14
falls in love and projects unto her his
53:16
fantasy of the ideal woman he instantly
53:20
knows that she is there 1 the figure of
53:23
a lil yoghurts brooder is interesting in
53:27
a stereotypical male way he perceives
53:30
that the solution to his despair and
53:32
depression not isn't being able to have
53:34
sex with eating within young theoretical
53:38
framework the brooder figure is
53:40
sometimes seen as the shadow I figure
53:42
that symbolizes attributes that are
53:44
unacceptable to the conscious view we
53:46
hold of ourselves or for the people a
53:48
male symbolizes yogic shadow obsessive
53:52
desire for retain and further depicts
53:54
the absence of an actual personal
53:56
relationship with the feminine you tame
53:58
seen through the eyes of the shadow I'm
54:01
gonna help benevolent and caring your
54:03
kid may appear it's simply an object of
54:05
sexual desire not a person sex for many
54:10
men is often a substitute for instrument
54:12
see not an expression of it particularly
54:15
when there is a poorly developed
54:16
relationship with his feelings when the
54:20
ego figure of yoghurt is absent busy
54:23
with the demands of his job as many
54:25
modern men find themselves the shadow
54:27
really comes to the fore it is aided and
54:30
abetted by the archetypal figure of
54:32
m'dear who uses a lleol to seduce attain
54:36
those in a psychological sense the act
54:39
hyper masculine power aids the
54:41
perception of women as sexual objects to
54:44
be conquered not people to be connected
54:46
with in a meaningful relationship
54:49
you could fails to develop a personal
54:51
relationship with a teen and those two
54:53
feeling side of his personality is
54:56
regressed and is symbolized in the
54:58
shadow of his brother if a man's
55:01
conscious view of himself centers around
55:03
power as yours can be seen to do then
55:06
the inevitable shadow back to this cast
55:08
is a dark often obsessive and impersonal
55:11
sexuality that denigrates women the
55:14
outcome for yoghurt is a complete loss
55:16
of contact with the feminine not only at
55:18
the personal but also at the archetypal
55:21
level the firemen and
55:23
only regresses to the other world in the
55:26
arms of the archetype of negative
55:27
masculine and disappears from
55:29
consciousness was this purse your good
55:32
interaction what he is driven by is the
55:35
loss of an idealized fantasy and when he
55:37
discovers that he has chosen his own
55:39
daughter he rejects her vehemently
55:42
sending his child a grandchild her debt
55:46
this outcome in the story requires
55:49
further thought Jung's position on
55:52
incestuous figures is informative
55:54
invaluable incest symbolizes union with
55:57
one's own being
55:58
it means individuation of or becoming
56:00
self incest is simply the union of like
56:03
red light and it's the next stage in the
56:05
development of the primitive idea of
56:07
self fertilization he's of course
56:10
referring to the symbol of incest in
56:12
dreams and not the acting out of this
56:14
image so yoga projects the possibility
56:17
of a union with his own personal feeling
56:19
life symbolized in the figure of his
56:21
ancestral zebra guarding dar instead he
56:24
continues to yearn for the idealized was
56:27
a woman after all his pursuing I've
56:30
attained throughout the other world and
56:31
all the digging up of the unconscious
56:33
you could remain someone changed
56:35
he still rejects the development of
56:37
personal feeling that he has banished
56:39
I'm condemned to death this reminds me
56:42
of a certain individual who relentlessly
56:45
pursued therapy in a variety of forms
56:48
and settings but after all the digging
56:49
up they remain as own insightful as when
56:51
they started the failure to accept
56:54
aspects of ourselves rather masculine or
56:56
feminine is a pervasive team in human
56:58
beings in relationships this can be
57:01
experienced as a constant pressure that
57:03
one partner exerts on the other to be
57:06
who they want them to be the desire to
57:09
change one's partner is very often
57:10
refusal to accept them and a violation
57:13
of their individuality it is also not
57:16
infrequently and means by which people
57:17
avoid looking at themselves and asking
57:19
what aspects of their own being they
57:22
might need to change the final part of
57:26
this story may represent an alternative
57:28
strategy to warn of rejection that yoga
57:31
chose the herdsman and his wife I repair
57:35
and as such symbolized the ending
57:37
creation of the masculine and feminine
57:38
at the human not the archetypal level
57:41
the presence of royal figures in myths
57:43
and ranged symbolizes the archetypal era
57:46
or in personal level this disintegration
57:50
of opposites that enables the acceptance
57:52
and maturation after feminine in the
57:55
figure of attained star the Cooper
57:58
Lawson represent opposite qualities to
58:00
the King for you could power and Status
58:03
dominate whereas the herdsman and his
58:05
wife are characterized by acceptance and
58:07
humility from this symbolic position
58:10
within the psyche the rejected feminine
58:12
can be nurtured and renewal found with
58:15
the birth of a new king in the figure of
58:17
Conair more we can see the
58:19
transformation of the ego a ruling
58:20
principle that occurs as the result of
58:23
the development of feminine attributes
58:25
humility and acceptance provide the
58:28
essential conditions for change since
58:30
they facilitate the emergence of
58:33
unconscious images and thoughts without
58:35
the interference of a defense of a
58:37
Georgian ego when the sense of who we
58:40
are is derived from an over an
58:42
identification with the ego or the
58:44
persona the energy project to the world
58:47
we are often very dismissive of thoughts
58:49
and images emerging from the unconscious
58:51
so phrases us that stupid or that's
58:55
illogical often point to the presence of
58:57
the old king ruling the psyche and
58:59
refusing to disconnect or die
59:02
the Irish goddesses tend to conform to
59:05
what Jungian mythology has termed a
59:07
great murderer earth what archetype
59:09
because they are so closely connected to
59:11
nature and natural events mythologies
59:14
offer many variations of this figure for
59:16
example Demeter Sybil and Gaia beloved
59:20
of the New Age movement one of symbols
59:22
of this archetype are a plowed field a
59:25
garden forest or sea or animal symbols
59:28
such as the crow the sail and the mayor
59:31
the Great Mother is a symbol of both the
59:34
creative forces and the disruptive ones
59:37
like all archetypes she has both a
59:39
positive and a negative side
59:42
alongside the goddesses nurturing
59:44
qualities is the feminine wisdom that
59:46
transcends logic and asserts the
59:47
inevitability of the eternal cycle
59:50
our birth life and death the markers the
59:54
dan you are unequivocal unequivocal
59:57
examples of this the caliph Yara is a
60:00
fine example of the archetypal hide the
60:02
holder of wisdom and knowledge of
60:04
spiritual matters when women are able to
60:07
establish a conscious awareness of the
60:09
relationship to these archetypal figures
60:12
within themselves they are able to stand
60:14
back in any situation and know the
60:17
inevitability of change this is not
60:20
passivity or compliance but rather an
60:23
action of acceptance taken in the light
60:26
of knowledge it is a yielding and not a
60:29
given in too many men such acceptance is
60:32
misconstrued as weakness however men of
60:36
course are so poorly connected to this
60:38
feminine archetype are so preoccupied
60:40
with taking action that they cannot
60:43
discriminate between acceptance and
60:44
giving in however if a woman is
60:48
disconnected in this way which is often
60:51
true a very intellectual woman then they
60:54
are often prone to inertia and despair
60:57
when faced with some life situation that
61:00
this demands the acceptance of change
61:02
this could be the birth of a child
61:05
marital separation or the death of a
61:07
loved one
61:08
once caught in the grip of such a
61:10
nursery it is very difficult to have any
61:12
sense of the dynamic process of change
61:15
and the emergence of fertility that
61:17
comes from the acceptance and the
61:18
writing this requires the presence in a
61:22
woman's conscious life of the Calavera
61:24
or the wisdom of the crown in a
61:28
masculine dominated action oriented
61:31
rational world this finger has
61:33
experienced enormous denigration and
61:35
derision rationality wants to triumph
61:38
all her life participate in and
61:39
acknowledging an inevitability of the
61:42
cycle of change young captures the full
61:45
complexity of desired type of figure of
61:47
the great murder when he describes her
61:49
as the loving and the terrible murder
61:52
Hindu goddess Kali is a good example of
61:55
this and just as mother nature has a
61:57
destructive side earthquakes bush fires
61:59
droughts and floods so also just a great
62:02
mother then a
62:03
side of the archetype includes such
62:06
attributes as a desire to dissolve all
62:08
boundaries and the view that everything
62:10
is connected to everything else and that
62:12
discrimination separateness are of no
62:14
value in this way the negative face of
62:17
the great motor works against the
62:19
emergence of consciousness and the
62:20
development of boundaries yet this
62:23
return to chaos and the obliteration of
62:25
boundaries is of course off in the
62:27
beginning of a period of creativity but
62:30
such a return as you will see in the
62:32
stories of the heroic quest requires
62:35
discrimination of conscious awareness
62:36
and not a submissive compliant giving in
62:41
for some women it is easier to identify
62:44
and indeed in some situations to over
62:46
identify with the positive nurturing
62:48
qualities of this figure to such an
62:50
extent that the actor type dominates
62:52
their psyche the end result is that they
62:55
become nothing more than a mother with
62:57
no sense of their own individual
62:59
identity changing this fixed role can
63:02
therefore bring about major identity
63:04
crisis the children of such women can
63:07
experience their mothers as extremely
63:09
possessive sometimes resulting into
63:11
child escaping into sickness madness or
63:14
even death the mother whose entire
63:16
identity revolves around being a mother
63:18
needs to possess the child as a means of
63:21
keeping her own identity in fact as the
63:24
trials emerges into young adulthood he
63:26
is imprisoned in the motorcycle and the
63:28
engulfing face of the Great Mother comes
63:30
into operation preventing the forward
63:33
movement of growth and development order
63:37
women react so strongly against the
63:38
nurturing aspects of this archetype but
63:40
they appear to place a curse upon
63:42
themselves that they will never be like
63:44
their own murder all of identification
63:47
with the destructive aspects of the
63:49
archetype meanwhile may mean that
63:51
nurturance is perceived as a weakness
63:53
and that such women are not only unable
63:55
to nurture orders were also unable to
63:57
nurture themselves the masochistic
64:00
murder is one manifestation of this
64:03
pattern as also is it seeming opposite
64:06
to driven corporate woman who is unable
64:08
to stop and takes stock of the direction
64:11
of her life it's apparent wisdom of the
64:14
triple goddess lies in the incorporation
64:16
of all three
64:17
tributes of fertility nurturance and
64:19
aggression perhaps it is because the
64:22
goddesses are so close to nature that
64:24
these three qualities have not been
64:26
split or intellectualized into separate
64:28
and discrete entities again and again
64:31
the myth reveal the existence of this
64:33
wisdom and the desirability of holding
64:36
and containing opposites and there you
64:41
have a guys I'm afraid that's all we
64:42
have time for tonight
64:44
that concludes the chapters on the Gods
64:47
the male archetypes and the goddess is
64:49
the female archetypes
64:50
[Music]
65:22
you
