"In the history of collective as in the history of the individual, everything depends on the development of consciousness. This gradually brings liberation from imprisonment in unconsciousness, and [the trickster] is therefore a bringer of light as well of healing.”
“The so-called civilised man has forgotten the trickster. He remembers him only figuratively and metaphorically, when, irritated by his own ineptitude, he speaks of fate playing tricks on him or of things being bewitched. He never suspects that his own hidden and apparently harmless shadow has qualities whose dangerousness exceeds his wildest dreams.”
“He is a forerunner of the saviour and, like him, God, man, and animal at once. He is both subhuman and superhuman, a bestial and divine being, whose chief and most alarming characteristic is his unconsciousness… He is so unconscious of himself that his body is not an unity, and his two hands fight each other.”
[Quotes by Carl Jung taken from his work "Archetypes and Collective Unconscious"]

In praise of folly
Anima Mundi
Cosmic dancer
Zero is the number
The forerunner of the savior
Folly stands with
celestials in favor
As the wisdom of the world
is denied
closer to the truth
of the cosmos
O spiritual element!
Which gives earthly existence
charm and value
Salt of life,
yet you taste sweet
Bringing refreshment and
real treat!
Mediator to the center of the soul
Although the fool is always
too much or too less
Half god - half animal
Not un- but amoral
Mask of virtue
How much evil has been transformed
through wisdom?
(The owl of Minerva
comes too late again)
Beneath the consciousness
lies the archetype
When peasants aping the king:
Silliness an ancient
purifying rite
The fool clowning
between
Apollo and Bacchus’ sleight
Like the cunning Hermes
Flying through three worlds
Encrypted remains the
inner access
In Mercury the contradictions
Are connected
Healing begins with the
truth
So let the fool kiss the wound,
that only he can heal
No cure for the Fisher King
dying he lives despite this is fleed
the coffin
If the child is halfway into the
rational world
So the fool is on the right track
to escape
and laughs at those
who boast of their sageness
For divine folly is wiser
than compared to philosophy
and even its weakness
is stronger
Destroyed shall be
the wisdom of the wise
despoiler of most beautiful illusions
fantasised!
Why were we given by
Jupiter in a pound of passion
hardly mixed an ounce of reason?
Unwise deception brings delight
brings us love and the champion
Icy winds on mountain tops
The truth is to flattering mouth
no guest
Only the bread eater holds up
a mirror to the king
And the whim hides
the almost unspeakable
In crude jokes
of the most foolish kind
Why separating the paradise of the
fool from the misdeed?
The latter would never have arisen
had one learned to laugh
in dire need
So there are many classes of
fools
from the first screaming child
on every continent
in every literaral category
The fool can be found
in every human repertory
So let no one deceive
himself!
For whoever thinks to be wise
in this world
let him become a fool
so that he may become wise in the way
he was appointed to
[Translation of my poem "Preisung des Narrentums", 2023]

Here is a link to the original by Doxieone:

I thought this was an awesome shot of the statue. I used the magic wand tool to select and delete the background. I expanded the canvas size to allow for some more room and added several other images on several layers. I added some lighting using an orange/red spot light only on the statue layer.
Thanks Doxieone for letting me work on your amazing photo. It is so cool.

Woman rides a chestnut horse in dramatic lighting with flowing red hair and stylish attire
A confident woman sits atop a chestnut horse against a dark background. Her flowing red hair and elegant outfit catch the light, creating a striking and dynamic visual.
#Dusk’s Champion
A single beam of light cuts through the gathering dusk, carving a stage from the inky void. There, poised atop a chestnut mare, stands a woman whose presence commands both shadow and flame. The horse’s coat gleams like burnished copper, muscles flexing beneath every ripple of light. Behind them, the world recedes into darkness—yet in that moment, they are the only story unfolding.
Her red hair, loose and untamed, erupts around her shoulders in a cascade of fire. Each strand catches the glow, transforming windblown tendrils into living embers. She wears a tailored black coat with silver fastenings and a silk scarf that trails behind like a comet’s tail—an elegant armor fashioned for movement. Her gaze is steady, unflinching, as if she alone can hold back the night.
The chestnut horse shifts, planting hooves with purpose. In the interplay of light and shade, you see the tension of powerful haunches and the arch of a strong neck. The rider’s posture—chin lifted, spine straight—speaks of trust and mastery. They are a single silhouette in motion, a study in strength married to grace, daring the darkness to challenge their claim.
As the light flickers and wanes, she nudges her mount forward. Together they step into the shadows, leaving an echo of brilliance behind. In their wake, the dark canvas seems less empty—a promise that even in the deepest night, bold spirit and beauty can carve their own path.
Well, I was born on the day when the light starts to get longer, and the sun shows itself more each day, so what better way to show that than to wrap myself in lights right?
That's better! SO sorry to those of you who took the time to say nice things about the last one but I went back to play and learned how to really work the lights in my favor. I'm much happier with this! A little different for me, more eerie than it is flattering, and I like it all the same.
Today is pack and fly day so I may not get my 365 in. Here's an extra shot taken late last night just in case!
I know everyone and their mother is wrapping themselves in lights lately, but who says that means I can't or shouldn't right? Gotta try it out! I had this vision of it at work and while this didn't turn out how I'd planned, I still had to BAM, so here it is!
You gotta check out this KEH blog post full of vintage Christmas ads and covers of popular photography. It's pretty freakin awesome!
p.s. Thanks so much for all the birthday love today! I never expected to get so many messages and kind words...you all ROCK for realsies!
"Dr. Martha Starks (Modes of Therapeutic Action) defines maturity as "being able to accept the reality of people and things as they are, without needing them to be other than that." Humans tend to upset themselves if life is not the way they think it should be. What is - is… make your plan and move on to productive behaviors.
Our brains will believe anything we tell them. If you tell your brain that you are in danger (physically, emotionally or psychologically) it reacts as if you are sliding face first down a mountain. If you replace negative irrational, self-limiting thoughts, your emotional control will improve dramatically. What does that mean? It means that your relationships improve, you feel in control and self-confident, you like yourself, and you are more likely to reach your life goals."
Dr. Dorothy McCoy, www.personalityone.com/emotional-maturity.html
We found this Aston Martin Vanquish right after the F430 / 430 Scuderia-Combo. It's my favourite Aston. I quite like the lighteffects this time, so I wanted to share it with you. Maximilianstraße. 28.05.2011
