Forgive me, you probably know this already, since you are a smart astrologer!! But I was excited to learn that Jung believed that a man, when he does not know his own soul, projects his ideas of his soul onto his beloved. This is very problematic because then the man does not have to understand his own soul. He also cannot experience the reality of who is partner truly is. In order to understand his own soul and experience the reality of his parter, usually the man has to withdraw from the relationship, and sometimes much of the world, also, in order to introspect and find a new deeper healthier understanding of his own true deepest inner self. Only then is true love and connection possible, after he moves beyond the unconscious and easily disappointed projections and assumptions.


I just had to grab this off Ali's thread because it's totally amazing!
