“I would even go so far as to say that the mythical character of a life is just what expresses its universal human validity. It is perfectly possible, psychologically, for the unconscious or an archetype to take complete possession of a man and to determine his fate down to the smallest detail. At the same time objective, non-psychic parallel phenomena can occur which also represent the archetype. It not only seems so, it simply is so, that the archetype fulfils itself not only psychically in the individual, but objectively outside the individual.”
― C.G. Jung, Answer to Job

“I recommend no one ever say, “I will do X, or die trying.” The Universe will take your maxim as a challenge. It will delight in testing to see just how serious you really are. And if you keep telling yourself, “Whatever doesn’t kill me makes me stronger,” your trials will never end.”

“Therefore, the universe, and everything in it, responds to thoughts because it is composed of the thoughts of the divine. If the divine created us and everything else as a thought, and we are capable of creating our own thoughts, then they, too, are divine and filled with power. The universe and everything in it will respond to our thoughts. Thoughts invested with energy become reality. This is magick.”

“An old alchemist gave the following consolation to one of his disciples: “No matter how isolated you are and how lonely you feel, if you do your work truly and conscientiously, unknown friends will come and seek you.”
― Carl Jung
