Thank you for the heads up on that. I’m bit saddened by that, but hey ho, fake becomes apparent eh. While I’m at this,Thank you from my heart, and I’m blissfully grateful to you,for a remarkable and fascinating channel, it’s up there with the best gifts I’ve ever received. I genuinely ❤Love everyone who puts this together , I Love you 🥰 all. Namaste 🙏 ❤
I often tell myself, just because someone is making you feel a certain way, that isn't who you are, it's just a reaction to their actions, if you take a moment and just breath, the clarity of who you are comes back 🙏
This statement provides great clarity: "when something informs you, you are not projecting, but when something affects you emotionally, you are projecting". It's a valuable insight. Thank you!!
There's information, and then there's delivery, and when both come together harmoniously, the effect can be beyond powerful. I must say you are an masterful artist of this! The way you weave everything together leaves a profound impact. Personally, i've found shadow work to be incredibly liberating and transformative, and at the end of the day at least for me, not all that scary. I do most of my shadow work in the dream state, the recommendation to journal out strong emotions is a good one and something i'll incorporate. Thanks 🙏🙏
My goodness, thank you Stefan for your very kind words of praise and continued support. Really wonderful practice you shared, I believe dreamwork to be extraordinarily powerful as well. Big love to you and yours, my friend!
I cried when i heard “Nina was fighting herself” and the explanation. After a few minutes of reflection once the video ended, I realised i was subconsciously projecting compassion at a quality she was mirroring that i wasn’t aware of in myself. That reflection of myself was painful to see but also enlightening. It was me saying “wow I do that to myself and it’s really hurtful”. Now I feel aware. And I feel like denying myself is an uncomfortable thought, as if I’m holding myself back. That was an amazing realisation.
Hands down the best content I've seen on RUclips. This is art. No doubt you love what you do. I'm in tears after watching this enthralled and filled with all the most exciting questions one can have for themselves. Bravo! 🦢
😲 Wow. This is the first time I have ever sat in reflective silence for a solid five minutes after watching a RUclips video! Incredibly powerful. It was really superbly done. I do hope you make a part two. Thank you for sharing, and the effort you put into making this video. 💖🌟
It's amazing how you connect these ideas together. I've always believed movies are great works of art which can unveil deeper truth about ourselves. Great Video by the way.
Kudos to such a fantastic explanation! I'm going through a similar phase in life right now, as Nina did, and I feel like it's about time my shadow saw the light of day! I'd rather embrace it rather than having to fight it!!
This is the magical duality of life, the shadow that falls as the light hits us. Spectacular essay Elson. Your analysis is so thorough. Loved every second of this. 🦢
I always thought Nina was fighting as the white swan, resisting the black swan as a trope that society tells her it's cool to be. It's not cool to stay the sweet virginal girl child. But there are moments where I feel like Nina wants to stay the white swan. She wants to find solid ground with her true self as the good girl. I always thought her defeat of the black swan at the end was her succeeding in that. Her triumph in the final scene was as the white swan, finally at peace knowing she had the goods to dance both parts. Maybe I just relate. There's rage in the white swan too.
❤ ✌️ I've used writing that was my go to. Here's a jingle. Spirit of Apollo is what I follow. My heart not hollow. Never to worry or wallow. That wisdom of the wise old owl🦉 And system of intuitive knowledge. Never to grovel and just write that novel. So please don't crumble when I burst your bubble. Remember, if we rumble it won't be humble. So as I pick up that shovel and break out that hovel. Been in some trouble, time to clean that rubble. With my spirit guides and them tides. My mind's eye and the full moon collide. God knows I try with them spirits allied. I walk in stride and as lightning I ride. All things aside, I still must abide. My soul drives as my will circumscribes. I've written a few of these shadow poetics and some good and some not so good.
I said this about my ex many times, the things she hated about me, were things she was exactly guilty of herself, often in worse ways. Or as Eddie Vedder put it "If you hate something, don't you do it too?". Self-projecting is really powerful tool for understanding the motives behind peoples accusations against you/bad behaviour towards you.
Your art is a mirror to art that needs more mirrors. The human mind and the human experience is so fascinating and in many ways beautiful in both in its light and dark sides, but especially in its fusion. They call it the "golden hour" and when a human being experiences it like Nina in the movie does by the end its a transformative experience, even though it can be very painful to experience it in the moment. I've been spending months growing and in a way trying to synthesize the world within and a tangible map outside to share and hopefully guide others though a state of change. Thank you for all the support you've given so far!! Ideas a fragile and it needs support and guidance to find footing and be the bright light it can be. Your work is a light to many. Keep going and en*light*en the world! :D
Thanks so much, my friend. You're an extraordinarily talented creator and I am rooting for you, and can't wait to see what you will come up. Big love to you and yours!
Elson! What a pleasure and privilage to have another phenomenal production from you!!! ☺☺☺❤❤❤ This really resonates with me at this present time. There have been parallells between this story and my own. Cant begin to express how grateful i am for the divine and timely reminder you have sent us here!! ❤❤❤🤗🤗🤗 Hope all is well in your world, sending much love and light to you and to all who are fortunate to find themselves here! ❤❤❤🤗🤗🤗
What a pleasure it is to read another wonderful comment from you, N A! I'm so grateful that you're here, for your continued support, and I hope everything is excellent in your world as well. Huge love to you and yours, my friend!
Wow just wow. 1. Never seen the movie but you summarized it beautifully. 2. Love the connection between the point of the video and the movie. 3. Thankful for the projection tips. I've always asked myself if I was projecting but I didn't know how to identify it. Thank you
That was just incredible! I will watch this over and over because it is so loaded with profound meaning that comes exactly at the perfect timing!! Yes synchronicity!!! I just can't thank you enough for your amazing work, your wisdom and the clarity in which you express such intricate yet delicate information. You are truly gifted my friend!! You are helping me beyond what I had hoped for. Can't believe the exact timing of it all... Thank you for being who you are, and thank you universe!!!
Thanks so much, DThomas! As always, I am so grateful to you, and your continued support my friend. Your kind comment really warmed my heart and made my day. Huge love to you and yours!
another solid essay! really enjoying this series on the shadow. We've all been raised or programmed in ways to suppress some aspects of our true or whole "selves". Acknowledging this is part of the journey toward self discovery and self actualization 👥 Looking forward to your next video 🦢
This way this video puts together powerful stories that moved us but we didn't quite understand, adding Jung's teachings to explain them, and making it all relevant to our own lives is just amazing. And it flows so smoothly together. I love this.
Superbly done! Great analysis. I went through this journey 7 years ago and happy to say, I am complete now..whole...shadow and light in balance. But my shadow is so delicious to me that when it overtakes me I just bathe in it untill the seesaw evens out. Thank you for this video
Cheers 🥂 to integration. We are told all is mind. I enjoy the growth of making amends with do-ality. The play on words and art saved me in my dark hours of facing my shadow. How dark it was before it dawned. Knight and day are in balance within me and I enjoy the dance now as I find others that harmonize in mind and synchronicity. Thanks El’s son/Elson. Beloved now we are the sons of the Elohim and Eloher. 😊
Hey Elson - I've really learned a lot from watching your previous videos, but I have to say that this one is probably one of the most beautifully written and thematically deep, even compared to the others on your channel. The concept of the shadow vs. the ego is one that I definitely was not familiar with before, and the concepts you discussed in this video are both extremely complex and also important; I will have to spend some serious time contemplating the material from this video more later haha. I wonder where you think the higher self and soul fit in compared to the shadow and ego, in terms of what makes up someone's personality? After finishing the vid, my immediate thought was that higher spiritual states and enlightenment probably come when the ego and shadow are in harmonious balance, and both are subordinated to the higher self. You really presented a lot to contemplate in this one bro, awesome job and keep it up my friend!
Wow, thanks so much, Jonathan. That's a wonderful question, and I love the answer you've given about being in harmonious balance. I agree with you! I've read that the word 'holy' is related to the word 'wholeness' (or the state of being whole'). I believe healing our fragmentation and becoming whole by bringing the unconscious into consciousness, is a way of connecting with the divine. I look forward to new pieces from you too, my friend. Big love to you and yours.
@@ModernIntuitionist The unconscious into consciousness--that's a really fascinating thought! Also, love studying how the construction of words can really yield a lot of insights; hol in particular seems to have a lot of positive derivations, like holistic, wholesome, holiday
Amazing this was by far the best description and gave loads of clarity on shadow work and I stumbled upon this video just when I was struggling with the reasons for my ego based fights and constant inner turmoil , this movie in general explains a lot of how the shadow work can be an exhausting but imperative part of life and personal growth
It's always a pleasure to receive another one of your comments, Daniel! Thank as always for showing love and support for what I'm doing. I am truly grateful for you
a quote from the other great dance movie about working on the shadow, told with humour to its core, Strictly Ballroom, Fran - "Vivir con miedo, es como vivir a medias!”
This somehow captivates my attention and interest and I’m totally immersed and gives me an opportunity to do some self reflection. Thanks for the great video
These videos made me realize why I've suddenly grown an ego as I've basically lived a life of shadow work and my brain is like "ITS MY TURN". I've killed it over and over with extreme hatred only to realize I wasent doing anything wrong and I'm not some perfect robot. All I have understood is that I'm evil, wrong, and shouldn't exsist but my brain disagrees and forces me to remebr myself.
This is the truest beginner's shadow information. I understood that quickly, but you know what's fascinating!? ... I never want to study or never gotten curious about shadow work except for now. Then, I saw a new video coming from you, this channel where I used to learn about my awakening. WOW it is truly a divine timing indeed. :)
I could make a lot of comments here, but I'll stick with just one for now. Brilliant execution how the fight club analysis and examination were made as a prequel to this video since fight club and black swan are reflections of each other in many ways, the most obvious being the masculine\feminine dynamic.
This is a wonderful look into the movie. I always liked the movie but now even more so. Your videos have such great substance and dialogue. Love your channel 🦢.
🦢 I love your videos, smart and deep! However, in the end I had another understanding. She'd had to kill Nina for the shadow to emerge, hadn't been able to allow herself to integrate them. I see Nina still striving for perfection, acting destructively and being split. Hugs from Brazil!
🦢 As always brilliant and creative video explaining shadow work 🖤 I love how you distinguish being informed from projecting. Im an astrologer that focuses on shadow work through specific planetary placements that tackles the shadow aspects of our psyche. Black Lilith Moon placements is a big one that shows what desires we repudiate from expressing in our lives.
Perhaps that's why I've been devouring astrology & it's aspects. I'm a Libra/Aries/Capricon (Asc.) and I'm especially drawn to Lilith and its role in my chart (Lilith in MC Scorpio 10th house) as well as Chiron (in Aries 3rd House). I'm currently going through an intense Dark Night. And with the above factors plus my moon opposite Pluto, it's created a sh*tstorm affecting all the major areas of my psyche & my lifepath. No wonder I'm having such a hard time! Perhaps I was led to this video and subsequently to your comment in order to urge me to keep digging for clarity. I'm on the right track. In that sense, I truly thank you. I wish I had the funds to have a knowledgeable astrologer like you on the permanent payroll.
@@jenniferfields10 Yes I love that you're delving into astrology during your dark night of the soul. Astrology gets a bad rep due to pop culture, but it's meant to be a guide in our lives; it's our soul compass. Also look to your Saturn, it's meant to show us how to structure our lives and what type of discipline you need. and thank you for your compliment that's so sweet 🤍🖤
Thanks so much for taking the time to share that, Amanda! As you probably already know, Jung also had a keen interest in astrology. Big love to you and yours
@@ModernIntuitionist Yeah, I watch a lot of them and people always seem to miss the point…because every movie is ultimately about the same thing-shadow integration. You’re the first one I’ve seen who gets it and explained it perfectly. You must be a psychology student or Freemason or something😆 You nailed it! Nice work.
Another fantastic video. Thank you for breaking down the shadow & light personas in the movie. Makes me want to rewatch the movie. One form of shadow work that has been successful for me is to feel the adverse energy in my body. I may or may not be able to associate it with something in my life or my family lineage. I put on low resonate, bass music (no lyrics) and dance as though I am fighting and dancing with the shadow. I stop when I feel the energy has moved out of me. I then have more insights into what that shadow aspect was. It may have served me in another lifetime to survive, but I no longer need that state of begin. I say thank you and good bye to it! 🦢
My goodness! I've never watched anything this interesting before. If there are RUclips oscars you deserve the best video award for this presentation 💃🏽🦢😃🥀✨️👍🏼🕺🏽
@@ModernIntuitionist I appreciate you and your dedicated work. Honestly your insight is unique, delivery is clever and presentation is on point. You’re an artist hon. Please just keep going. I think you are going to get very big on this platform. I’m surprised you don’t already have millions of subs. You will tho. No doubt.
This channel is superbly fascinating, and ahead of the curve in the self awareness of consciousness movement. And I think this kind of content really is gaining momentum, I believe humanity will find become a world consciousness, people becoming more aware of the kingdom within, and it should not be difficult with ,more and more of us realising we are all connected to the universe, and let’s face it every prominent religion has this content ,at the core and beginning of the teachings. . (Sorry this has nothing to do with this particular video, it’s to do with all the wisdom gifted to us by this wonderful channel, and other channels with this content ) I enjoyed this video too. I’m very grateful to everyone working on this channel. Thank you to everyone who watches this type of content, and are growing and learning about themselves and are manifesting global self awareness, consciousness and spirituality. I don’t think it will happen in my current lifetime, however in my next earthbound body I would expect all you younger people to have taken this forward,and a golden of age of enlightenment for humanity has arrived. ☮️ ❤️ and more❤❤❤ to everyone ( or anyone lol) who reads this . I Love You ( everyone)
Thanks so much, GarnGad! I'm so grateful for you too, and the fact that you would take the time to share these wonderful insights really warms my heart. I share your optimism and enthusiasm for the prospect of a global shift in consciousness, and I believe we are living in a critical period in human history. Beautifully said, I appreciate you, my friend!
I like these videos with movies examples because are more realistic. I will try to incorporate these insights into my life. I saw the previous video about Carl Jung advice for a lost generation and it was so fascinating to watch. Keep going with this good works 👍 Good luck
This is a beautiful video and unlocked more wisdom in me to move forward working with my shadow and integrate it, this resonated on such a deep level. Thank you so very much ❤️
Exquisitely presented! Very helpful to sift through Jung's definitions via your careful depictions of scenes from the movie, and your narration. Bravo! once again you commanded the complex subject matter and distilled it down beautifully. Am sharing with others. Brilliant. Thank you, as always.
Wow, thanks so much, Julia! I am so grateful for your support, and your very kind comment really warmed my heart and made my day. Big love to you and yours!
I like this video but find it hard to separate between when I am conforming to other people and situations or being what I believe is my true self, both good and bad. Some times it feels like I am true to myself but it takes very little resistance from surrounding people and situations before I give in and act and say what is acceptable. Trusting my own judgement is hard and I am working on it. Thanks for the inspiration Modern Intuitionist. (Reading some of Carl Jung´s work lately.)
I've had some very strange synchronicities happen during the last few hours whilst under the influence of some antibiotics... part of that was watching this video. A very good video... I am going to absorb some more info! 🦢
I really enjoyed this abd learned from it. I'm starting to be interested in the work if Carl Jung - his theories simply make more sense to me. Its like he's explaining things i could never fully articulate myself. I recently realised a shadow aspect of myself which was projecting onto others and I'm now actively working on it. However, I was a bit distressed about how to know what is a shadow side aspect trying to come forth and what isn't. So your explanation about what aspect of someone makes you wznt to be better as opposed to something that triggers you emotionally. That is a fantastic way to differentiate between the two. Thanks a lot 🦢
Thanks so much for taking the time to share your own journey and experience, Duchylocs! I completely agree with you, and that's exactly how I felt when I first found Carl Jung's work: he touched on things I felt were deeply true but couldn't fully articulate myself. I appreciate you, my friend!
🦢These concepts are so beautifully explained and presented here.. really enjoyed and appreciate this video! 🙏 _Thank you for your hard work!_ 🌟 Wow..the bird & the thorn tree 🥺 I’ll be mulling over that for awhile🕊
In a neat little town they call New York Apprentice to trade I was bound And many an hours sweet happiness Have I spent in that neat little town I took a stroll down broadway Meaning not long for to stay When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid Come a-traipsing along the highway She was both fair and handsome Her neck, it was just like a swan And her hair, it hung over her shoulder Tied up with a black velvet band Her eyes they shone like diamonds I thought her the queen of the land And her hair, it hung over her shoulder Tied up with a black velvet band Of course....not really a matching song, but its funny that I thought of Natalie Portman while listening to the Dubliners.....
I swear your videos are the only ones that keep my short attention span captivated 🦢 After watching this now i understand a part of me that i believed it was normal. To be sincere im a bit overwhelmed by this realisation. I like watching tarot pick a card videos and recently all of them kept saying that i should do shadow work and thongs like that but i couldn't understand what are my shadows. But when you said those things about informing vs annoying now i think i can see a bit clearer in what aspects of myself i do need to work on to improve my self and be more authentic. Thank you for a great enlightened video. 💖
After some intense months of being annoyed by loud, brute, coarse people that I seemed to meet just everywhere I went, the following happened : I had left my umbrella in the post office and when I turned back to get it, they were already closed -though still there and we could see each other through the glass doors - So I knocked ( kind of politely) and pointed to the umbrella which I could see sitting right there.. They saw me too but did not budge an inch - This went on for a while , me gesturing and waving and they simply ignoring me - when suddenly a big broad woman appeared and started to bang her fists fiercely ( and dagerously) agaist the glass , screaming at the top of her lungs "THIS WOMAN ( pointing at me omg🥴) WANTS THAT UMBRELLA !!!! GIVE THE UMBRELLA !!! THE UMBRELLA - NOW !!! GIVE IT !!! THE UMBRELLA, THE UMBRELLA, THE UMBRELLA !!! ...." bang, bang, bang, bang.... - What can I say ? - Yes , she was loud and coarse and obnoxious - but she got me the umbrella 🦢👻 -Lesson learned, I hope... But at least heart opened a little bit..
I really loved your story Mellifer Gold! Hilarious and touching, you're a great storyteller. It's a great lesson and very relevant to the shadow. Thank you for taking the time to share it, I appreciate you

This statement provides great clarity: "when something informs you, you are not projecting, but when something affects you emotionally, you are projecting". It's a valuable insight. Thank you!!
I'm a writer. A lot of my stories over the years have been about people pretending to be someone else. I'm beginning to understand why. Thank you.

Kudos to such a fantastic explanation!

I've used writing that was my go to.
Here's a jingle.
Spirit of Apollo is what I follow.
My heart not hollow.
Never to worry or wallow.
That wisdom of the wise old owl🦉
And system of intuitive knowledge.
Never to grovel and just write that novel.
So please don't crumble when I burst your bubble.
Remember, if we rumble it won't be humble.
So as I pick up that shovel and break out that hovel.
Been in some trouble, time to clean that rubble.
With my spirit guides and them tides.
My mind's eye and the full moon collide.
God knows I try with them spirits allied.
I walk in stride and as lightning I ride.
All things aside, I still must abide.
My soul drives as my will circumscribes.
I've written a few of these shadow poetics and some good and some not so good.
Really beautiful, Jess! Thanks so much for taking the time to share your wonderful work with us

Thanks for explaining this story behind the movie. I saw it, but I did not understand.. now I need to see it again.
You're so welcome, thank you Loekloekieloo!

After finishing the vid, my immediate thought was that higher spiritual states and enlightenment probably come when the ego and shadow are in harmonious balance, and both are subordinated to the higher self. You really presented a lot to contemplate in this one bro, awesome job and keep it up my friend!
Wow, thanks so much, Jonathan. That's a wonderful question, and I love the answer you've given about being in harmonious balance. I agree with you!
I've read that the word 'holy' is related to the word 'wholeness' (or the state of being whole'). I believe healing our fragmentation and becoming whole by bringing the unconscious into consciousness, is a way of connecting with the divine. I look forward to new pieces from you too, my friend. Big love to you and yours.
@@ModernIntuitionist The unconscious into consciousness--that's a really fascinating thought! Also, love studying how the construction of words can really yield a lot of insights; hol in particular seems to have a lot of positive derivations, like holistic, wholesome, holiday
Thank you so much for what you do, you are absolutely brilliant and a powerful instrument, may you be blessed always.
Amazing this was by far the best description and gave loads of clarity on shadow work and I stumbled upon this video just when I was struggling with the reasons for my ego based fights and constant inner turmoil , this movie in general explains a lot of how the shadow work can be an exhausting but imperative part of life and personal growth
I always enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for all the effort and energy and love you put into them!
It's always a pleasure to receive another one of your comments, Daniel! Thank as always for showing love and support for what I'm doing. I am truly grateful for you
Now I must run to re watch this movie! When I first watched I was not ready for it and didn’t understand … but now I am enlightened
I'm so glad I found this channel. Thank you
I'm so glad you found me too, shadesofcalm! Thank you for your support!
a quote from the other great dance movie about working on the shadow, told with humour to its core, Strictly Ballroom, Fran - "Vivir con miedo, es como vivir a medias!”
This somehow captivates my attention and interest and I’m totally immersed and gives me an opportunity to do some self reflection. Thanks for the great video
You are so welcome, Meiyitung! Your kind comment really made my day. I appreciate you!
These videos made me realize why I've suddenly grown an ego as I've basically lived a life of shadow work and my brain is like "ITS MY TURN". I've killed it over and over with extreme hatred only to realize I wasent doing anything wrong and I'm not some perfect robot. All I have understood is that I'm evil, wrong, and shouldn't exsist but my brain disagrees and forces me to remebr myself.
Amazing video , I heard about shadow work but never had it explained to me in such a deep visual and profound way as you did. Thank you.
Thanks so much, Andrea! I'm so grateful for you and your very kind words of support
This is the truest beginner's shadow information. I understood that quickly, but you know what's fascinating!? ... I never want to study or never gotten curious about shadow work except for now. Then, I saw a new video coming from you, this channel where I used to learn about my awakening. WOW it is truly a divine timing indeed. :)
Wow, thanks for your very kind comment Carmnescence! You really made my day, big love to you and yours
You explained this and everything in previous videos so clear ❤
Good video. It explains a complicated and important subject in a clear manner. ❤
Wow. Just wow. You just presented the best video on shadow work. Thank you. 🦢🦢
Thanks so much, Vivienne! I'm so grateful for you, and your continued support. Your comment made my day
I could make a lot of comments here, but I'll stick with just one for now.
Brilliant execution how the fight club analysis and examination were made as a prequel to this video since fight club and black swan are reflections of each other in many ways, the most obvious being the masculine\feminine dynamic.
This is one of the most beautiful movie analyses I have ever seen.. I'm impressed
Thank you so much! I'm so grateful for your kind words of support, IndigoHazelnut!
Probably one of the most useful videos on the shadow I've seen.
This is a wonderful look into the movie. I always liked the movie but now even more so.
Your videos have such great substance and dialogue. Love your channel 🦢.
Thanks so much N Moodley for showing love and support! I appreciate you!
You're one true gem bringing your thoughtful videos to us.
Beautifully explained! ❤
🦢 I love your videos, smart and deep! However, in the end I had another understanding. She'd had to kill Nina for the shadow to emerge, hadn't been able to allow herself to integrate them. I see Nina still striving for perfection, acting destructively and being split. Hugs from Brazil!
🦢 As always brilliant and creative video explaining shadow work 🖤 I love how you distinguish being informed from projecting. Im an astrologer that focuses on shadow work through specific planetary placements that tackles the shadow aspects of our psyche. Black Lilith Moon placements is a big one that shows what desires we repudiate from expressing in our lives.
Perhaps that's why I've been devouring astrology & it's aspects. I'm a Libra/Aries/Capricon (Asc.) and I'm especially drawn to Lilith and its role in my chart (Lilith in MC Scorpio 10th house) as well as Chiron (in Aries 3rd House). I'm currently going through an intense Dark Night. And with the above factors plus my moon opposite Pluto, it's created a sh*tstorm affecting all the major areas of my psyche & my lifepath. No wonder I'm having such a hard time! Perhaps I was led to this video and subsequently to your comment in order to urge me to keep digging for clarity. I'm on the right track. In that sense, I truly thank you. I wish I had the funds to have a knowledgeable astrologer like you on the permanent payroll.
@@jenniferfields10 Yes I love that you're delving into astrology during your dark night of the soul. Astrology gets a bad rep due to pop culture, but it's meant to be a guide in our lives; it's our soul compass. Also look to your Saturn, it's meant to show us how to structure our lives and what type of discipline you need. and thank you for your compliment that's so sweet 🤍🖤
Thanks so much for taking the time to share that, Amanda! As you probably already know, Jung also had a keen interest in astrology. Big love to you and yours
@@ModernIntuitionist yes that's why I love Jung 🥰lol and same to you! 🖤
you are an absolute genius, and this video spoke to me on an incredibly deep level
From the bottom my heart, thanks so much for showing love and support for what I'm doing. I appreciate you, my friend
Wow! Powerful poignant and incredible!
Thanks so much, Christy! I am so grateful for you
Holy smokes... fantastic video on one of my most personally relevant films. You brought me to tears. Thank you, mate!!
Wow, I'm so happy to hear that, and your comment warmed my heart to read. I appreciate you, Dustin!
This is the best movie analysis I’ve ever seen👍🏻
Wow, thanks so much, Richard! I am so grateful for you and your continued support!
@@ModernIntuitionist Yeah, I watch a lot of them and people always seem to miss the point…because every movie is ultimately about the same thing-shadow integration. You’re the first one I’ve seen who gets it and explained it perfectly. You must be a psychology student or Freemason or something😆
You nailed it! Nice work.
Another fantastic video. Thank you for breaking down the shadow & light personas in the movie. Makes me want to rewatch the movie. One form of shadow work that has been successful for me is to feel the adverse energy in my body. I may or may not be able to associate it with something in my life or my family lineage. I put on low resonate, bass music (no lyrics) and dance as though I am fighting and dancing with the shadow. I stop when I feel the energy has moved out of me. I then have more insights into what that shadow aspect was. It may have served me in another lifetime to survive, but I no longer need that state of begin. I say thank you and good bye to it! 🦢
Thanks so much for taking the time to share your own practice, Fran! Really wonderful. Big love to you and yours!
@@ModernIntuitionist ❤
These videos are just so amazing....thank you so much 🦢
You're so very welcome, Berry! I appreciate you, my friend
LOVE THIS VIDEO. Been looking for analysis for black swan for long time and RUclips just suggested this today so glad I found it! Thank you
Well done! I want to see this movie now! 🐧
Thanks so much, Ethan! It's a powerful movie
I’m super interested in the projection ideas about informing and emotional reactions - I need to look at that. Thank you! Im loving your content 🦢
My goodness! I've never watched anything this interesting before. If there are RUclips oscars you deserve the best video award for this presentation 💃🏽🦢😃🥀✨️👍🏼🕺🏽
My goodness, thanks so much nhlanhlongeleza! Your kind and generous comment really warmed my heart and made my day. I appreciate you, my friend!
🦢Awesome video. Had seen the movie, but did not grasp many of the messages you unveiled for me. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome, silvertonguesings! I appreciate you, my friend!
Excellent video.🦢
Thank you, SM! I truly appreciate you!
@@ModernIntuitionist I appreciate you and your dedicated work. Honestly your insight is unique, delivery is clever and presentation is on point. You’re an artist hon. Please just keep going. I think you are going to get very big on this platform. I’m surprised you don’t already have millions of subs. You will tho. No doubt.
@@SometimesIdream333 Your comment warmed my heart, and really made my day. Thanks so much, my friend
I am learning so much from your work - thank you! I have shared you many times with my loved ones - thank you for sharing your gift
Wow, you're so welcome! Thank so much for taking the time to show love and support for what I'm doing, Jamie. Big love to you and yours!
This channel is superbly fascinating, and ahead of the curve in the self awareness of consciousness movement. And I think this kind of content really is gaining momentum, I believe humanity will find become a world consciousness, people becoming more aware of the kingdom within, and it should not be difficult with ,more and more of us realising we are all connected to the universe, and let’s face it every prominent religion has this content ,at the core and beginning of the teachings.
. (Sorry this has nothing to do with this particular video, it’s to do with all the wisdom gifted to us by this wonderful channel, and other channels with this content )
I enjoyed this video too. I’m very grateful to everyone working on this channel. Thank you to everyone who watches this type of content, and are growing and learning about themselves and are manifesting global self awareness, consciousness and spirituality.
I don’t think it will happen in my current lifetime, however in my next earthbound body I would expect all you younger people to have taken this forward,and a golden of age of enlightenment for humanity has arrived. ☮️ ❤️ and more❤❤❤ to everyone ( or anyone lol) who reads this . I Love You ( everyone)
Thanks so much, GarnGad! I'm so grateful for you too, and the fact that you would take the time to share these wonderful insights really warms my heart. I share your optimism and enthusiasm for the prospect of a global shift in consciousness, and I believe we are living in a critical period in human history. Beautifully said, I appreciate you, my friend!
I like these videos with movies examples because are more realistic. I will try to incorporate these insights into my life. I saw the previous video about Carl Jung advice for a lost generation and it was so fascinating to watch. Keep going with this good works 👍 Good luck
Amazing video, thank you
Wow this was awesome! Now I feel like watching the movie 🦢
Powerful video! 👌 The whole Shadow concept is very interesting and makes a lot of sense. Another great video
This is a beautiful video and unlocked more wisdom in me to move forward working with my shadow and integrate it, this resonated on such a deep level. Thank you so very much ❤️
Thanks so much, Amanda! I am so glad to hear that, and I'm so grateful for your support
beautiful video, I love how you dig deep into the meaning of black swan, its one of my favorite movies.
Thanks so much, Ashvergent! I appreciate you!
@@ModernIntuitionist your videos are so enlightening and edited very well---thank you!
Please do all great story video every week mate
You are a devine gift
Thanks so much, I appreciate you!
Great video, Thanx!!!
Exquisitely presented! Very helpful to sift through Jung's definitions via your careful depictions of scenes from the movie, and your narration. Bravo! once again you commanded the complex subject matter and distilled it down beautifully. Am sharing with others. Brilliant. Thank you, as always.
Wow, thanks so much, Julia! I am so grateful for your support, and your very kind comment really warmed my heart and made my day. Big love to you and yours!
I give you credit on a wonderful video sir.
One of my favorite channels. Love it!!!
I like this video but find it hard to separate between when I am conforming to other people and situations or being what I believe is my true self, both good and bad. Some times it feels like I am true to myself but it takes very little resistance from surrounding people and situations before I give in and act and say what is acceptable. Trusting my own judgement is hard and I am working on it. Thanks for the inspiration Modern Intuitionist. (Reading some of Carl Jung´s work lately.)
I've had some very strange synchronicities happen during the last few hours whilst under the influence of some antibiotics... part of that was watching this video. A very good video... I am going to absorb some more info! 🦢
I really enjoyed this abd learned from it. I'm starting to be interested in the work if Carl Jung - his theories simply make more sense to me. Its like he's explaining things i could never fully articulate myself.
I recently realised a shadow aspect of myself which was projecting onto others and I'm now actively working on it. However, I was a bit distressed about how to know what is a shadow side aspect trying to come forth and what isn't. So your explanation about what aspect of someone makes you wznt to be better as opposed to something that triggers you emotionally. That is a fantastic way to differentiate between the two.
Thanks a lot 🦢
Thanks so much for taking the time to share your own journey and experience, Duchylocs! I completely agree with you, and that's exactly how I felt when I first found Carl Jung's work: he touched on things I felt were deeply true but couldn't fully articulate myself.
I appreciate you, my friend!
What a beautiful video
Swan ❤
This video was profoundly informative! It shed a light on many layers of my subconscious mind! Thank you for sharing 🙏
You're so welcome, Roshanak! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment!
🦢These concepts are so beautifully explained and presented here.. really enjoyed and appreciate this video! 🙏 _Thank you for your hard work!_ 🌟
Wow..the bird & the thorn tree 🥺
I’ll be mulling over that for awhile🕊
You are so very welcome, Persephone! Thanks so much for being here and for supporting my work. I truly appreciate you!
WOW, LOVED IT ❤
In a neat little town they call New York
Apprentice to trade I was bound
And many an hours sweet happiness
Have I spent in that neat little town
I took a stroll down broadway
Meaning not long for to stay
When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid
Come a-traipsing along the highway
She was both fair and handsome
Her neck, it was just like a swan
And her hair, it hung over her shoulder
Tied up with a black velvet band
Her eyes they shone like diamonds
I thought her the queen of the land
And her hair, it hung over her shoulder
Tied up with a black velvet band
Of course....not really a matching song, but its funny that I thought of Natalie Portman while listening to the Dubliners.....
Loved the interpretation of this movie.
Excellent video, well articulated and so interesting!
Wonderful! I haven't watched the movie, but this was really helpful for me ! Thank you!
❤🙏(there are no swan emoji on my list, so 🕊😃)
"Swan". :) Much Love from Franconia
Much love to you too, Wastalluswastallus (from Canada)!
This video is very well crafted 👏🏻🦢⭐️

Brilliant analysis and amazing video! Thanks!
Thanks so much, Daniel! Big love to you and yours!
Your videos are very empowering, as always, Elson.

Thanks so much, Sukhwinder! Big love to you and yours
Amazing work
Interesting
I swear your videos are the only ones that keep my short attention span captivated 🦢
After watching this now i understand a part of me that i believed it was normal.
To be sincere im a bit overwhelmed by this realisation. I like watching tarot pick a card videos and recently all of them kept saying that i should do shadow work and thongs like that but i couldn't understand what are my shadows. But when you said those things about informing vs annoying now i think i can see a bit clearer in what aspects of myself i do need to work on to improve my self and be more authentic.
Thank you for a great enlightened video. 💖
You're so welcome, Moon! Thanks so much, and I wish you power, peace, and love on your journey of self-discovery
This was worth the wait! Thank you 🦢
Thanks so much for always showing love, Beth! I appreciate you!
So beautifully done 👏🏽🙏🏽🦢
Thanks so much, Nelly! You're the best, and I'm always so grateful for your continued support
Just great! Thank you.
Thanks so much!
Hope you can make part 2 🥹
After some intense months of being annoyed
by loud, brute, coarse people that I seemed to meet just everywhere I went, the following happened : I had left my umbrella in the post office and when I turned back to get it, they were already closed -though still there and we could see each other through the glass doors - So I knocked ( kind of politely) and pointed to the umbrella which I could see sitting right there.. They saw me too but did not budge an inch - This went on for a while , me gesturing and waving and they simply ignoring me - when suddenly a big broad woman appeared and started to bang her fists fiercely ( and dagerously)
agaist the glass , screaming at the top of her lungs "THIS WOMAN ( pointing at me omg🥴) WANTS THAT UMBRELLA !!!!
GIVE THE UMBRELLA !!!
THE UMBRELLA - NOW !!!
GIVE IT !!! THE UMBRELLA,
THE UMBRELLA, THE UMBRELLA !!! ...." bang, bang, bang, bang....
- What can I say ? - Yes , she was loud and coarse and obnoxious - but she got me the umbrella 🦢👻
-Lesson learned, I hope...
But at least heart opened a little bit..
I really loved your story Mellifer Gold! Hilarious and touching, you're a great storyteller. It's a great lesson and very relevant to the shadow. Thank you for taking the time to share it, I appreciate you
@@ModernIntuitionist Thank you so much for your great kindness and your high quality channel - both rather rare...
