#112 - Brynja Magnusson - Yin Mysticism - A Hypothesis on the Unknowable and Dark Half of All Things

"Every single person has a deep storehouse of mysterious Yin, rife with potential richness, meaningful innovation, and the terrifying unknown. When one knows how to walk in a Yin way, they orient themselves to the fabric of reality. This is why one who navigates life in a Yin way is masterful, because they work with the current of the cosmos and they feel the contextual web of possibility." A quote from the book "Yin Mysticism and the vesica Piscis" by my guest today, Brynja Magnussen. Inspiring and beautiful book. Brynja Magnussen is an artist in the visionary and psychedelic genres and an author of archetypal and energetic reference books. In this episode we dive into Yin Mysticism and the mind’s hidden currents. TAP IN as we speak about themes such as: -Hypnosis & Yin: “Hypnosis holds a special role in the modalities of Yin because it directly approaches the Yin subconscious from a wakeful YANG state.” -A world short on Yin: “The subjugation of and separation from YIN over millennia is bound to begin manifesting in neuropathology.” -ADHD & unchecked YANG paradigm -Separation as mystical-mundane. Why the most profound transformations leave you alone afterward -Seasonal depression and what one could do about it -Astrology !! As we speak about modern life over-privileges analytical, fragmentary, left-hemisphere styles— a Yang tendency—at the expense of contextual, embodied, relational, integrated, holististic form of knowing. Eclipse seasons (literal alignments, shadow and light) are a good time to rebalance toward Yin qualities such as: recovering, attunement, dark unknown.
