I just know they have a fascination with the occult. I'm a fan of Carl Jung, I'm just wondering if Occult in general is something that Christians should stay away from. I find it interesting to study, and I'm beginning to think that the idea of psychological alchemy is beneficial, I just want your opinions on it in general

 

Alchemy. Good or bad?

I guess there's just a funny paradox. Carl Jung went deeply into the cult and talks about alchemy in terms of individuation. Integrating the shadow, and such.

 

But the cabal we are talking about that does these horrific acts are apparently Occult followers.

 

Lately I have been having intrusive thoughts and have been taking an alchemical approach to treating it. Delving into the fantasies and thoughts in order to expose myself to them. Writing down horrible thoughts that have been looping in my mind.

 

I just don't want to be like these cabal weirdos, I want to make sure that this is nutritious for soul.

 

And then again my need for closure on this matter, which accepting the open endedness of it is crucial for curing, is another aspect that feeds my obsessive need to fight dark thoughts.

 

I hope this makes sense, maybe I need a break from all of this shit.

Thank you for your honesty. I tripped on mushrooms when I was 22 and it has led me down a rabbit hole of meditation practice for about 10 years. It's bound to jar something nasty loose eventually. I think I'm just working through some childhood trauma or something. Nothing too gruesome from what I remember, but there has always been a kind of looming despair over me. For these past months, this has become a groaning dread.

 

I've also started lifting weights recently and stopped watching a lot of porn, stopped smoking weed, and drinking.

 

I also lived out in LA, and was working in the lib dominated media for a bit, where I was certain I was in close proximity to psychopathic people. I have since quit, my career in television after being on the verge of a promotion and decided to move in with my mom in a different state. I couldn't stomach it. The eggshells I was walking on became more and more fragile

 

Now I drive for a living, and am learning a new career path. It was after I left LA that all of this started to really surface.

 

It's like I became aware of my strength and started to realize, after a life of weak physicality and low self-esteem, that now I actually have the ability to harm people if I wanted to. And I feel that is sort of frightening to me.

 

I hope I don't sound crazy, I'm sure it's a confusing time for a lot of people. Maybe I just need to get out moreโ€ฆ lol

I'm not practicing alchemy, I'm reading learning about Jungian psychology. Jung wrote about alchemy a lot in terms of psychology individuation in order to overcome neurosis.

 

Basically, for me, alchemy is an attempt allow myself to become more dark, to not think of myself as good, in order to become stronger. Like I said, I'm christian, but I study things like Taoism too. I just wanted anon perspective on alchemy in terms of a metaphor, turning one's inner shit into gold, not physically turning lead into gold.
