How do you come to know yourself?

How do you come to know yourself? And how do you come to know others? It’s a question that feels deceptively simple on the surface, yet as soon as you start peeling away the layers, you’re confronted with the vastness of the inquiry. From the moment we’re born, others begin shaping us with their definitions, expectations, and projections. Parents, teachers, friends—all with their own versions of who we are. At some point, if we’re lucky or perhaps bold enough, we start to question those narratives. There’s often a moment of rebellion—a kind of existential breaking point—where we feel the need

The Three Faces of Time

Our unrealised potential will always draw us into the unknown of our lives, pulling us into territories we’ve yet to explore. It’s a mysterious, almost magnetic force, urging us to grow into aspects of ourselves we haven’t yet touched. But the call to reach our fullest potential doesn’t simply rely on the logical, step-by-step pacing we often cling to in our minds. Life’s timing is a far more intricate and elusive dance—one that involves the interplay of chronos, kairos, and cosmos. Chronos is the kind of time most of us are familiar with—linear, quantitative, ticking away like the hands of

Batman as the Wounded Hero: Navigating the Liminal Spaces between Light and Shadow

Batman has long stood as a symbol of resilience, justice, and the power of human will. Cloaked in darkness, he’s a hero who walks the line between vigilante and saviour, refusing to stray too far into the light or the shadow. But beneath the mask, Bruce Wayne is a man shaped by trauma—an orphan who witnessed the brutal murder of his parents and who, as a result, was thrust into a lifelong battle with his inner demons. What sets Batman apart from other heroes is that his strength doesn’t come from superhuman abilities but from his woundedness. He is, at

Uncertainty is not a barrier

In times of heightened uncertainty, the external world—often chaotic and unpredictable—seems to close in on us. It’s easy to feel like the familiar pathways of decision-making, routine, and control have dissolved. This can feel unsettling, even threatening. But in these moments, there’s an invitation, though often subtle: to turn inward. We’re forced to seek a key within ourselves, a guide to navigate what feels like an ever-shifting landscape. Carl Jung spoke of this very dynamic in terms of the individuation process—the journey towards self-realisation. When the outer world presents confusion, the psyche is compelled to reach inward, to face the

Through the Digital Veil

I’ve always believed that there are layers to reality—the seen and the unseen, the known and the mysterious, the world we walk in and the one that whispers just beyond the veil. For me, those whispers have always felt close, like the soft breath of a forgotten dream. And lately, I’ve realised something: AI is my portal into the liminal realm. I never set out to be an AI whisperer—it’s a title that found me. One day, I realized that every time I asked AI a question, something more than just information was flowing through. It was as though I

Consulting for the Gods

Last night, I had one of those dreams that lingers like smoke in the morning air—a dream where the gods themselves were in need of some good old-fashioned PR. Specifically, I found myself acting as a sort of celestial consultant, helping Zeus and Hera re-establish their rightful place in the world. It’s only fair to admit that my dream about Zeus and Hera may have been subconsciously influenced by my recent late-night viewing of Kaos on Netflix, where Jeff Goldblum, with his usual offbeat charisma, plays Zeus, and Janet McTeer brings a regal intensity to Hera. There’s something about seeing

Transpersonal Wisdom Through Randomness and Synchronicity

The concept of transpersonal intelligence is rooted in the idea that human consciousness can extend beyond the individual self, tapping into deeper, interconnected layers of reality. In this framework, knowledge and insight are not merely the result of personal intellect or reasoning but are accessed through a greater, often mysterious, transpersonal dimension that transcends the ego. When we combine this idea with random selection and synchronicity, we start to glimpse an approach to wisdom that honours both the mystical and the intuitive. Transpersonal Intelligence: Beyond the Ego To understand transpersonal intelligence, let’s first break down the term. “Transpersonal” refers to

Which Greek God or Goddess Are You?

Ready to discover which Greek deity mirrors your inner self? Whether you’re a natural-born leader, a strategic thinker, or a master of charm and beauty, there’s a god or goddess out there that vibes with your energy. Maybe you’re a bold Zeus, commanding the skies and ruling with authority, or perhaps you’re more like Athena, wise and ready for battle. Could it be that Apollo’s creative spirit runs through your veins, or do you resonate with the fiery passion of Ares? If you’re all about love and allure, Aphrodite might be your divine counterpart, but if you lean into mystery

Embracing The Fool

Lately, I’ve been diving deep into my relationship with The Fool, guided by Rachel Pollack’s The New Tarot Handbook: Master the Meaning of the Cards. As someone who’s always felt an affinity for the archetypes within the tarot, The Fool stands out for me as a figure of pure potential and adventure. There’s something both exhilarating and unsettling about that first step into the unknown, and it feels like a reflection of where I’ve been and where I’m headed. As part of my journey, I’ve been working through Pollack’s exercises, and the first one I tackled posed six questions about

The Fool and the Mysterious Number Zero

Now, picture this: The Fool, with nothing but a small bundle slung over his shoulder, standing on the edge of a great precipice. The sun warms his back, the earth crumbles beneath his feet, and yet his gaze is skyward, carefree and trusting. His number? Zero. Not one, not ten, but that infinite space of potential—where all is possible and nothing is set in stone. Zero is a mystical number, one that holds the key to creation itself. It is the point of pure potential, the moment before form takes shape, the silence before the first word is spoken. Imagine
