- @maxderrat returns for a deep dive on alchemy, Carl Jung, and the hidden esoteric themes in video games and media.
On his RUclips channel, Max decodes the esoteric and philosophical undercurrent of media. His work exposes the hidden wisdom in your favorite video games, anime, and more.
In this one, we pay special attention to alchemy. What is it really? Why does its strange symbolism mean? Why do alchemical themes and symbols remain so pervasive in media? We also chat about why storytellers continue to propagate esoteric symbolism in general.

You should have an astral doorway RUclipsr as your guest. He is more into gnostic teachings but your conversation could be very beneficial for many people like me. Thank you for what you're doing. It's so important specifically in these crazy modern times...
I would love that!
Oooo honestly!! Good idea!
The red door in Insidious is the Corpus Callosum in your brain connecting your conscious to our subconscious
I am a fan of Max Derrat. I admire his clarity and precision to introduce Junguian ideas to the general public, specially his video series about Jung's "Aion". I would like he will summarize the theory and book of Julian Jaynes about the origin of consciousness.
Holy shit you nailed it in the beginning where you explained when you maintain consciousness while falling asleep and imagery from dreams connect to your reality somehow but they make no sense. There’s no way to create an equivalence to the images appearing and what it has to do with your life but you can feel these deep “knowings” with them. Man that happens to me a lot in both meditation and sleep. I didn’t realize anyone else had experienced this. I need to learn more about alchemy. still watching this vid!
Very potent and possibly slippery territory 🌀
I just thank you so much for doing what you're doing.
You're most welcome my friend
We all begin as females in the womb. Male sex doesn't express or differentiate until about 6 weeks in fetal development. The hermaphrodite isn't just in multiple ancient cultures, it's in our very makeup. This isn't intended to negate gender nor negate the incredible differences between the masculine and feminine spirit. It more so speaks of the enormity that exists within all of us. The alchemical process is meant to marry these aspects within us presently and across multiple incarnations. As mentioned, the synchronicities that appear during the process are absolutely mind blowing and humbling. It is the burning bush. It is the divine union of Shakti and Shiva. It is the Earth witnessing the Buddha. It is the Holy Ghost of fulfillment. It is the return of the divine feminine.
56:27 love this idea, like a metaphysical mitochondria, the anima/animus seem to be a leftover psychological artifact that if investigated further, can help pull us forward along that continuum of ignorance to unification with the nondual mystery
Legitimately cannot wait for this!

I'm an artist. Lately I've been making sketches of mostly triangles and circles that represent healing and humanity. In trying to find out why I've started doing this, I've been researching and ended up here. I'm still not sure aboit it all but whatever it is I can't seem to stop or don't want to. It feels right. It feels weird to tell others.
Geometry is definitely a rabbit hole unto itself. Today we think of these things as meaningless. This was not always the case as a dive into platonism/pythagorianism will show you.
Shapes are more honest than words
Cannot be led by ego
Someone’s random doodles
Can say more about them
Than how they speak day to day

@@genevievemichele7 I love this
@@genevievemichele7 ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY APPEAR IN BLACK & WHITE!! AUTOMATIC DRAWING/ WRITING!!🙂
Very good program, your personal introduction cought my attention. Congratulations and thank you for sharing.
🙏🙏🙏
Interesting conversation here. You both had contrasting views that complimented each other very well. I could tell you were speaking from a more metaphysical frame of mind, and you're more willing to let your thoughts wander. Max speaks from a more material frame of mind, and really tries to center his thought.
So, as you wandered, Max would try to reel you back in. Conversely, as Max was locking into his rigidity, you presented more open modes of operation.
It was actually a very delightful display of alchemy.
Gardening or walking in nature will provide insight into some of these symbols - as will un-siloed study of ecology- the mother of all sciences in my opinion.
I think you're spot on! Seeing the interconnected Nature of the nature around us is insight provoking and can completely alter our perception; allowing us to go towards the deeper meaning of seemingly simple perennial symbols.
Taoism and their concept of alchemy and symbology, definitely give that sense to me. Especially with the concept of "Bian Hua"
35 k. It’s going up !! Congrats
Thank you!
The 'Opening of the mouth ceremony' of ancient Egypt has a much greater meaning than is realised--as do many of the Hermetic rituals. Everything they did was meant to have many connections symbolically, the mouth representing the Void from which all comes and goes, the Zero of the feminine the one being of the masculine together making the binary code on which all creation is based. The tool that opens the mouth is in the shape of the 'ears' of 'Set', the antagonist of the Osiris myth, and he is seen as setting chaos in motion at the centre of the solar system with the murder of Osiris. The void, the end, chaos and catastrophe being aligned with the first 'Nigredo' phase of Alchemy
Loved this conversation! It’s that time again-time to reread The Divine Pymander. Thank you for the inspiration and for functioning as the universe’s meaning dispensary.
Thank you brother! Woah that’s a high compliment and same to you 🤝
Hey man just wanted to say I love your channel learnt a lot through it....I just wanted to say I love how articulate your are in a sense I also want to reach your level of fluency and precision with words mind making a short video on it or atleast giving me some tips on how you became so articulate?
That’s very kind, thank you my friend. I don’t really do anything special. 🙏
thanks for another great episode!
🙏🙏🙏
2 of my favorite channels colab?! I love you guys!
✨💓✨
I thoroughly enjoyed this thank you. Its good to know im not alone. Thank you. I hope more and more people i physically meet or know soon catches up with this kind of wisdom. Its so sad to me to see so many clueless seemingly NPCs.
There's a documentary on Netflix about the Bibliotheca Philosophica Hermetica I came upon recently. When I started to watch it my heart almost jumped out of my chest. Never had an experience like that before, like a pure concentrated "THIS IS IT"-experience. Guess I'm hooked.
Oooh those feelings are the best. I like to think that’s a sign as well.
Hi. I couldn’t find that on Netflix. Do you know the complete title? Thanks

I really love your work brother! I would like to offer you a small criticism. are you aware of how much projecting you're doing when you speak about your stories using "you" language? For example you were talking about a dream you had, and instead of saying ""I've" been thinking of things I'm avoiding" you speak as though the other has gone through your experience.
Thank you so much for your time and dedication to this movement of gnosism, blessed be your day and life dear one. 🙏🧡
Thanks. That’s not my intention, just the way I talk.
Evangelion is a total mindfuck. So good
Thanks
The industrial evolutionary process of consciousness, and the Arrow of Time.. Interest, how we collectively seem to create our systems ...
Id love to see this kind of information and wisdom be mainstream and well understood by all humans asap. Thank you for making this content and helping make that be a possibility. Your so brave. i want i find my way into helping share important subjects like this. Where do i start?
Thank you so much! Definitely follow your natural interests and keep accumulating information 🙏
46:55. exactly. It calls for experiments in automatic writing and divination. You already know.
Very very helpful thank you
Manifesting of correspondence is the essence of magic. That would approve magical, but actually it's totally logical
My friend has a Twitter space on psychology and mental health and I'm wondering if you might want to be a guest speaker sometime?
Me? maybe.
Do you have an email I could use to get in touch with you? I've been trying to send my email on this platform and I have a creeping suspicion RUclips is deleting it for whatever reason.
Correspondence and locality in physics suggests reality
The androgyne in Anthroposophy and Rosicrucianism, as well!
Where is the place you least want to look?
I love the ending 😅
Changed it from 444 to 445 likes
If you put a plate of sweets in-between a group of 2-3 yr olds they will all eat from the same plate
If you put a plate of sweets in between a group of 7-8 yr olds they will divide the sweets out separating them into individual piles
Why is that ? what's occurring to make that change ?
And which one ultimately after thousands of years of debate is the path to choose ?
Do you slay the Dragon or not in the end of Dogma ?
On the Synchronicity topic, pay attention to numbers! *Numerology* Numbers are highly suspect
I agree, I also think number synchronicities are the slipperiest slope of all. Very easy to fall into confirmation bias. ie 11:11 on the clock type stuff.
Ahh but 11:11
Is like the training wheels of the Flow … I was super little girl and that was M’y maGic place …
It’s like the saying
Start at One
Or learning the Alphabet starting with A
Thank you : )

I feel like things just won’t get better
Start small with what you have control over my friend 🙏
@@THIRDEYEDROPS I wish there was more people like you, some just don’t understand

Isn't alchemy the transmutation of energy by way of a gnostic understanding of nature and it's laws in the material world,,,,,,,,,,this cleansing of one's soul gives rise to immortality,,,,,,,as the adept or philosophers stone,,,,,carries the memory though the abyss (death) to gain a seat at the table of the Gods!
Perhaps!
You’re touching on some really big ideas that run through all of western esotericism. The idea that through some kind of second birth or sublimation, man becomes something higher and is reborn into higher noetic realms. Where did you pick up this idea?
@@THIRDEYEDROPSDeific gnosis!
@@THIRDEYEDROPS you sir are an obvious alchemist are you not?
Indeed

He should get a camera
Haha he’s anonymous on purpose
❤Pauli and Car jung. Pauli was quantum scientist who found the number 4. Thought: he worried of what other men said about him. Then bottom. Feeling: he avoided his feelings which is Amina. The femal side. And the side sensation and The main issue, we have to accept are Amina femal part of us. Hawaii culture has MAHU. They embraced the made and femal which if Juan’s was alive, he would love this. Hawaii. MAHU. Tell me what you think.. I love Jung since 1985. I am weekend book reader , red the red book and much more. Californian Surfer Downey Cali.
Check out my most recent synchronicity video for more on Pauli and Jung too 🙏
