I met my animus the other day
 The local high school had a class to do a group past life regression. I don't know if the hypnotist's SOP was a loooooooooooooooooooong induction or if she did it because only a couple people admitted to being hypnotized before (including me) but during the mega-long inducing walking down steps, through a forest, strolling down a beach and I don't remember what else I came upon my Animus. He was just a vauge greyfogged human shape. Times like that I communicate with my guides using my fingers. A right forefinger twitch is a yes, a left forefinger twitch now, both maybe or don't know. Got a yes that he was a positive intentioned entity, no that this had anything to do with past lives, no I didn't know him between or in another life. Finally I realized and asked is he my animus? Yes. OK cool! So we joined hands and walked down the beach until the hypnotist directed me into an actual past life.

My next encounter was at the tail end of a bodywork healing session. The healer at the end leaves the room to let me come back to ordinary state of mind at my own pace. My animus showed up again and indicated or I simply knew this meant that it was time for us to start to integrate. This time the image in my mind's eye had a bit more focus but still not clear.

Today as I was carrying a load of dirty clothes to the laundry I felt his presence and got a nearly-clear image of him. He is taller than me (harumph, I always felt I should be a couple inches taller), his hair a bit lighter but I think our eyes are the same color. He had good muscles on his arms so maybe I will find heavy chores such as hauling kitty litter easier as we integrate

It will be interesting to see where this leads. In the past self-fragments (inner child, past life) have reintegrated basically on their own showing up in a healing session and just stepping into me when the issue that got them stuck was released. I have done a lot of shadow work but none working directly with a personification like this, not that my animus feels at all negative. He feels healthy and it feels more like I am the one that needs some work before he can meld. My google-fu has failed me so far in finding anything like what I am experiencing this so far. Lots of dreams and some bits on negative acting animus supressed animuses (animusi like octopus octopi?) I guess I will just keep working on myself like normal and see if my subconscious tosses me a method or my google-fu returns.

Psychology (vid. anima and animus)
Anima and animus, Carl Jung's school of analytical psychology, both one's "true self" as well as the masculine side of a female's unconscious mind; contrasted with anima for males.
Carl Jung believed that we each have within us both male and female qualitites, which together comprise the totality of who we are. The animus is the archetype in a woman that represents her male alter ego. It is the personification of the masculine qualities in a woman's psyche. These qualities may include rationality, authority, objectivity, initiative, courage, conviction, action, aggression, and brutality. The animus has been described as producing opinions, in contrast with the anima, which produces moods.

Now, I consider myself a Jungist, and I understand that ol Carl was talking about that everyone have mental charactoristics of male and female int heir psycholigical make-up.

Frank, for example, likes cats...not that there is anything wrong with that. What-'s-mane is scared to death of bunnies...again...

What I don't understand, and this is where I'd hope Fank, cat-lover tho he is, could help me out...

los Dummie thinks that she (and I assume she, since she is talking about a male manifestation), saw her animus in a hypnotist's fog...

and then later, felt this 'person' as she was sorting dirty panties...or something.

Carl's theory was that your own mind created this alternate personality trait, it wasn't a seperate entity, as los DUmmie is alluding too...

or am I just one too many heife-wiesens away from mental clarity?

It's true that is is an alternate mental trait but it appears to be separate until one is willing to make peace with it.

Philip K. Dick's anima was "the dark haired girl" and he experienced "her" as his twin sister who died in infancy, which is why a lot of times there is the weird twin growing inside a seemingly healthy twin, as demonstrated in the character of Kuato in the film Total Recall, based on the PKD short story We Can Remember it for You Wholesale.  But the connected twins appear in other stories such as Doctor Bloodmoney.

In VALIS, Sophie represents a coming to terms with his anima as it is one of the more positive portrayals of The Dark Haired Girl, the fifth savior, even.

The key here is 'appears to be seperate'. Carl understood that it was a minifestation for one's own id. Oh, and Dick was one ****ed up dude. LOVE his writing....but he was seriously LOO LOO

The "greyfogged human shape" wasn't the DUmmie's "animus". It was the DUmmie's fictional spirit guide whose name is Bob.

Before I go any farther there is something that I suppose I need to explain. A fictional spirit guide is usually assigned to a DUmmie for one of three reasons. The first is that the fictional spirit guide is a member of the Spirit Guide Corps and is on a covert mission. The second is that the fictional spirit guide is stupid. Now when I say "stupid" I'm not talking about being a little less intelligent than average. I'm talking about the "too stupid to breath" type stupid. Since a fictional spirit guide needs to be more intelligent than the subject he (or she) is guiding almost the only subjects available to these stupid fictional spirit guides are DUmmies. The final reason that a fictional spirit guide is assigned to a DUmmie is for angering the head of the Fictional Spirit Guide Guild (not to be confused with the Spirit Guide Corps).

For the record, Bob is not stupid nor is he a member of the Corps. I spoke with Bob about this to get the scoop, and he said that he was assigned to this DUmmie as a punishment. Apparently the head of the Guild does not appreciate having his desk drawers super glued shut. Bob always has been a prankster.

Personally, I was intrigued by this communication with fingers as I have never encountered this so I asked Bob about it. He finally stopped laughing long enough to explain. He says that he supposes his repeatedly extending and shaking his middle finger at the DUmmie could be considered as a form of communication.

I also asked Bob about the "self-fragments" of which the DUmmie wrote and about the the DUmmie's failure to find any answers via Google. After another bout of laughter Bob suggested that any additional searches with Google may return better results with "+psychedelic drugs" added to the search box.

I met my anus the other day
 The local high school had a class to do a group no life regression. I don't know if the hypnotist's SOP was a loooooooooooooooooooong induction or if she did it because only a couple people admitted to being this stupid before (including me) but during the mega-long smoke out, I tired walking down steps, through a forest, strolling down a beach but I don't remember much else except I came upon my Anus. He was just a vauge greyfogged donut shape. Times like that I communicate with my anus using my fingers. A right forefinger twitch is a yes, a left forefinger twitch now, both maybe or don't know. Got a yes that he was a positive intentioned mood, no that this had anything to do with past lives, no I didn't know him between or in another life. Finally I realized and asked is he my anus? Yes. OK cool! So we joined hands and walked down the beach until the hypnotist directed me into an actual life.

My next encounter was at the tail end of a bodywork healing session. The healer at the end leaves the room to let me come back to ordinary state of mind at my own pace. My anus showed up again and indicated or I simply knew this meant that it was time for us to start to integrate. This time the image in my mind's eye had a bit more focus but still not clear, more like mud.

Today as I was carrying a load of dirty underware to the laundry I felt his presence and got a nearly-clear image of him. He is taller than me (harumph, I always felt I should be a couple inches taller), his hair a bit lighter but I think our lips are the same color. He had good muscles so maybe I will find heavy chores such as using kitty litter easier as we integrate

It will be interesting to see where this leads. In the past self-fragments (inner child, past life) have reintegrated basically on their own showing up in a healing session and just stepping into me when the issue that got them stuck was released. I have done a lot of shadow work but none working directly with a personification like this, not that my anus feels at all negative. He feels healthy and it feels more like I am the one that needs some work before he can meld. My google-fu has failed me so far in finding anything like what I am experiencing this so far. Lots of dreams and some bits on negative acting anus supressed anuses (anusi like octopus octopi? roids?) I guess I will just keep working on myself like normal and see if my subconscious tosses me a method or my google-fu returns.
