REBIRTH INTO UNISEX
4 THE SHAPE
OF THINGS TO COME
Text:
The 4th, in alchemy, is the arcane substance: ‘earth’. It is also Adam. Metaphysically, it completes The Trinity. (C. Jung, Mysterium Conjunctionis. V. Adam and Eve 8. Adam as Totality; VI. The Conjunction. 1 The Alchemical View of the Union of Opposites)
Jung remarks that The Unconscious hesitates between the numbers 3 and 4. 3 is Male; 4 is Female. The triad completes Consciousness from the Male side; the square, or circle, completes Consciousness from its opposite, Female-Unconscious side (square, if Father dominant; circle, if Mother). The transition from 3-to-4, in serial counting, thus oddly maps the dynamic form of transit from Male-to-Female dominance of collective consciousness, which may be assumed ubiquitously available for dialectical purposes. Oddly, because 1. the Conscious Dominant stages in the sequence of psychosexual development are reversed; from dominance by Mother (and Her Eyes, especially); to dominance by Father; 2. The Big 3-4 Age transition undergone by the Collective HISTORICAL Unconscious is Zodiacal – transition (in round numbers) from Pisces-Fish-Christianity (0 -2000) to Aquarius (2000 – 4000); 3. The hesitation between 3 and 4 to which Jung referred has been resolved.
3 Archetypically denotes the Trinity (Christian): symbolic logos of cosmic conscious male Father-Son totality, inwardly completed through Love. In the Christian Unconscious, this Archetype was projected as Father-Creator God (Elohim, in the Bible) incarnate in the man Jesus of Nazareth, through the Virgin Mary.
4 as “the 4th”, assumes referential identity of cardinal/ordinal number tokens, as if they simultaneously represented the synthesis of successive units in a series- merely distinct, as coin tosses; or with accumulative effect, as pedals turning a wheel. Thus understood, it may be stated that “the 4th” completes a cumulative series 1-2-3- when these tokens correlate 1-1 with any three points a->b->c-> drawn as vertices on a triangle. Drawing the shape “4”, in fact (usually from bottom-up-left-right->), uses the hand to reproduce an instance; in addition, the lower right-hand quadrant ‘squares’ whatever medium surrounds the triangle. The Arabic number token thus shows what it says; depicts what it signifies.
In this respect it belongs to a specific, yet unnamed (I think) category of sign-use. “I Do”, uttered by man and wife at the marriage ceremony belongs to this category. Uttering the words enacts – shows-- what its meaning asserts -- says. Sincerely saying them is what makes what they mean true.
“4” .. “I Do” … any more?
Hold your breath. Now repeat slowly, distinctly, deliberately after me:
“I” – state official username – “Do solemnly swear..”….uh oh ….The Oath.

REBIRTH
REBIRTH
It’s all coming back to me now… an early experience of what it was all about… (childhood, religion, life, philosophy, psychohistory, psychosemiotics, religion => being here, now) … it’s like “I” had forgot the central thing of all.
A philosophical dream-thought, essential to life’s completing totality.
Three elaborations. Christian, Psychoanalsis, Gurdjieff.
The experience was imprinted (as a Mem1 loop “place of Re-Birth”) by conscious symbolic repetition of birth process in church. As if the original process were returned-to, in order to re-establish the neuro-psychic Victory! of Coming To Be. This the individual’s first experience of themselves being alive: own lungs breathing first air, eyes seeing first light – FREEDOM TO MOVE AT WILL.
The drive, or impulsion, toward re-birth, is to attain the state of “before-ness”. For this reason it can be theoretically derived from the pleasure-principle, as early Freud did. It becomes the motivating factor to avoid pain, which, emotionally, spreads out in the future. This stage will later be recalled as ‘innocence’, because the complications brought by sexual awareness are remembered to be still in the future. The
material of later dream-thoughts is retained from
this pre-genital stage of psychosexual development. Group-fantasies, with “I” as “one of them (us)”, become shared when self-reference in a containing population becomes a political issue. In a system of democracy under identity politics this becomes necessary, participant or not.
The dream-thought of the Common Collective Unconscious is this: There is a logos for the completing totality. Once arrived at, this containing conceptual content for the inner life, is reflected (projected) in visual sense perception by the Sky, or “Heavens”. Enclosing the atmosphere of the planet, as well as the individual, containing first light, breath, space. Since The Father, as gendered psychological opposite of The Mother , also emerges into awareness at this stage of development (in the normal aggragate), this logos in the Heavens, illustrated most vividly in the night sky by the movements of the planets and stars, as ‘bodies’, is attributed to Him. Awakening to the inner freedom of directed, “why?” connected thought processes, as well as “father” and “mother” as distinct but mysteriously related “parents”, supplies The Father In Heaven thus becomes perceptually identified with the Source of Logos, or Intellect.
To derive the Christian Trinity from this background conceptual Archetype, it is necessary to add only this male factor: the Son’s First Love of Father. Unity of Father and Son, achieved by returning to that place, is The Spirit.
According to this reconstruction, the Christian Trinity is not ‘just an alternate super-ego’ concept, in Freudian terms. It is a self-defined “I-“ use as referential --an alternate way of predicating conscious unity, other than by the public “I” accessible to what appears to others (appearances). Freud’s notion of ‘super-ego’ (‘ego-ideal’) is, indeed, built into The figure of Father in Heaven manifest as Logos in the spheres, as the Greeks already conceived Ors (earth’s planetary system in G.’s All and Everything).
Re-Birth, or “second birth”-based Christianity thus follows an ‘innate idea’, a repetition-compulsion to return the womb, then re-renter life again cleansed of all sense of wrong-doing. What can be seen as evident, now, is the identity in form of this behavior pattern, and what is otherwise and alternately represented by The Christian Trinity through the male psyche. This developmental psychodynamic narrative represents the Unity of the historical process under consciousness – for groups as well as individuals, through shared group-fantasy.
A key element in ritual enactments of re-birth as a process is renewal associated with inner cleansing of all sense of guilt, even to self-quelling wrong attitudes. From a moral point of view, this is a critical moment of development. Three major viewpoints converge here: 1. The Christian Trinity (see above); 2. Freud’s Oedipal-repression theory (the Son’s self-sacrifice of external body achieves Unity with The Holy Father through The Spirit (Love); 3. Gurdjieff’s teaching regarding remorse of conscience. Taking the Christian and Freudian points of view
(confession of sin: Christian – conviction of wrong attitude toward The Good (<=Mother <= womb <= placenta pleasure <= pre-pleasure)
Freud: cathexis of unconscious sense of guilt awakened at the time of first feelings of pleasure, with mental processes
Gurdjieff: experience of remorse of conscience
--impossible without total sincerity. Hence the darkness now: ‘information’ cannot be communicated in total, honest, literal seriousness, because the very technology involved in the process of doing so (producing audibles, punching in words according to identity politics, narrative history, situational atmospherics) intervenes, on the tokenside, to defeat any objective intentions to this effect. Sincerity itself will sound insincere (=> “I mean it!”) Any such stuff can be dismissed by the LOLin' lutzers as sarcasm, by simply repeating it sotto voce.
Note: The “Waking up” of a person by a teacher in Gurdjieff work is a one-time-for-all attainment BY their combined work, hence not the same as the once-for-all experience (some) Christians teach as rebirth in Christ.

Here’s Zbigniew Brzinsky on Morning Joe (who sawed on McCrystals log all day yesterday)
The Christian version of the Completing Totality is the Trinity of Father, Son, Holy Ghost* (1 John 5.7,8)
(*Spirit: the German “Geist” was used for both, in early Guttenberg Bible translations, and can be translated into English either way. But with obviously very different textual implications; ‘ghosts’ haunt houses, whereas ‘spirits’ can be sold in bottles or delivered from Zeus’s brow by Athena’s nous, etc.. This is an example of how the same sound token can textually distribute widely different, potentially opposite content. Thus, a century ago, “spiritualism” would have been popularly used, in fact, not too differently from “ghosts”. Mesmer’s notion of a vital force which he called ‘animal magnetism’ (to distinguish it from metallic), Henri Bergson’s widely acclaimed élan vital (“original vital impulse which is the substance of consciousness and nature”), Christian Science (believing that the body is an extension of the mind and illness the result of wrong mentation – beginning with belief in bodily existence); “Mind over matter” magicians; “The Power of Positive Thinking” by Norman Vincent Peale; séances, table rapping, ouija boards, Fatima curtains, all posited the existence of psychic energy.
Also appearing at the time was influx of remarkable men teaching and manifesting particular psychic powers …. spread of teachings from East of the Caucasus …. Tibetan brotherhoods; theosophy ….
Empirical, scientific studies of this widely disseminated notion of a special kind of psychic energy were those who explored depth psychology:
1. Sigmund Freud, who metaphysically grounded on the hypothesis of sex-organ/hormone arousal, gave it the name “libido”, and included it under the general psychological heading of “instinct theory”. Arousal toward a sexual opposite is called “object cathexis”; “cathexis” is defined as neurological discharge: ‘emptying’ the impulse differential of one cell’s energy into another via connections.

“7 Days in June” was Maureen Dowd’s 6.23 column, bylined “The general may be a Jedi, but he’s a maladroit Jedi” and containing these remarkable thoughts: “Gen. Stanley McChrystal (sic she misspells his name consistently throughout, confirming the ‘christ’ association on the token side) and his hard-bitten, smart-aleck aides nuked the president, vice president and other top advisers as wimps, losers and clowns in a Rolling Stone profile meant to polish the general’s image.”… “So the commander in chief can be bad-mouthed as weak by the military but then he can’t punish the military because that would make him weak? It’s the same sort of pass-the-Advil vicious circle reasoning the military always uses. …McChrystal (sic) publically pressured Obama to do the surge, warning that without it, Afghanistan would be “Chaos-istan.” But the president did do the surge and Afghanistan is Chaos-istan.” This is Maureen whinning. She doesn’t know what she’s saying; none of it adds up to anything other than “He’s not MY kind of guy!”, which I guess she is paid to show forth.

1. Sigmund Freud, who metaphysically grounded on the hypothesis of sex-organ/hormone arousal, gave it the name “libido”, and included it under the general psychological heading of “instinct theory”. Arousal toward a sexual opposite is called “object cathexis”; “cathexis” is defined as neurological discharge: ‘emptying’ the impulse differential of one cell’s energy into another via connections.
( contemporary models, adjacent effects: http://jn.physiology.org/cgi/content/full/98/4/1919 Serotonergic Raphe Magnus Cell Discharge Reflects Ongoing Autonomic and Respiratory Activities. How contents of consciousness are connected through the chemistry of neurophysiological brain and organism function has only become knows in the latter part of this century.

Choi, YJ, MJ Seelbach, H Pu, SY Eum, L Chen, B Zhang, B Hennig, M Toborek. 2010. Polychlorinated biphenyls disrupt intestinal integrity via NADPH oxidase-induced alterations of tight junction protein expression
Exposure to PCBs destroys cell connections in the gut.
This shows how intricate the hook-ups are just underneath consciousness.
2. Carl. G. Jung. Used the generic ‘psychic energy’, explicitly leaving it non-anatomically located, identified in consciousness as “interest”.
3. Wilhelm Reich. Discovery of the Orgone (Cosmic Energy Ocean – “The Net Looked Like The Ocean”
SUMMARY 6.20 -21 – 22 – 23 – 24
“7 Days in June” was Maureen Dowd’s 6.23 column, bylined “The general may be a Jedi, but he’s a maladroit Jedi” and containing these remarkable thoughts: “Gen. Stanley McChrystal (sic she misspells his name consistently throughout, confirming the ‘christ’ association on the token side) and his hard-bitten, smart-aleck aides nuked the president, vice president and other top advisers as wimps, losers and clowns in a Rolling Stone profile meant to polish the general’s image.”… “So the commander in chief can be bad-mouthed as weak by the military but then he can’t punish the military because that would make him weak? It’s the same sort of pass-the-Advil vicious circle reasoning the military always uses. …McChrystal (sic) publically pressured Obama to do the surge, warning that without it, Afghanistan would be “Chaos-istan.” But the president did do the surge and Afghanistan is Chaos-istan.” This is Maureen whinning. She doesn’t know what she’s saying; none of it adds up to anything other than “He’s not MY kind of guy!”, which I guess she is paid to show forth.
MAXIMUM PSYCHIC SELF-CONTRADICTION
-Merger of all opposites under BLACK-WHITE (S*3
S* LEVEL 3 – URGE TO MERGE IN MATING
AND/OR HATING
In family
--under Male-Female: all Oedipal fantasy issues: / Fatherhood/Motherhood; respective rights, domains, ‘family’ duties and control (Heather’s two moms, Ralph’s two pops)
((-Revisiting Ruth: “Whither thou goest, I will go”. Hard to get to, these days. ))
The Better it feels Today, the more evil it is was (for You) Yesterday. (It’s like voting for Obama again…as Landon …merging your soul to be reborn again through them…)
S* LEVEL 2 - regression to polymorphous perverisity. Forced acting out of merger fantasies creates false phenomenal mixing-matching of images and words, as in dream content (where signs are dreamed in the window)
- This is the Crazy House mental state, flying through the air like Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz. Anything might turn up next. Expect violence. No Country For Old Men.
S* LEVEL 1 : DNA/RNA neurophysiology of the Spirit –
There has been a glitch, a foul-up in the birth/re-birth/reproductive process. preventing the common cosmic group-world process from properly completing. Reproduction now should be by planned parenting.
Without eugenics, we’ll be breeding Octomoms and Soccer stars.

Crucify McCrystal !
CRUCIFY McCRYSTAL !!
–let us all be re-born.
INSTANT CLEANSING RITUAL REBIRTH THROUGH MERGER FANTASY !
-Hanging onto Group-Fantasy’s thread
Dramatizacre until you are dead
6.22 CRUCIFY McCRYSTAL !!
(please note: this does NOT invoke the Jesus defense.)
Crucify McCrystal !! <= merger fantasy: to sacrifice “Id-rep*’ of Desire to Kill the Father (=> unconscious historical group-fantasy, delegated to Alpha rebellious military male) OF WHICH HE IS NOT REALLY GUILTY, EXCEPT IN MEDIA HEAD MOUTHS – NOT shown by their ludicrous litany of faux evidences. He apologized to save appearances. .
After getting past First Time impressions as the story broke today, which would consist mainly in sizing up how it is that boy’s locker-room talk about other players, as males doing their jobs, could land in every publication, major TV news channel and pundit column solidly, unremittingly, for one whole day, as if the legitimacy of not just the line of command itself were at stake, but Truman’s propriety in standing up to MacArthur, or allowing Alexander Haig’s “I am in charge here now” to stand, following Reagan getting shot. Here is a General, director of the Pentagon’s secret ops for five years before Obama appointed him commander of all U.S../NATO forces in Afghanistan, having the temerity to show anything but honor and respect to the Commander–In-Chief. That is how the MSM has Framed* the 11 am showdown between him and Obama tomorrow. (6.23) THE WAY IT HAS BEEN FRAMED*, IT WOULD BE POLITICALLY SUICIDAL FOR OBAMA NOT TO PUNISH HIM SOMEHOW, VERBALLY OR SYMBOLICALLY, THE WAY A STERN, BUT JUST, FATHER WOULD AN ERRANT SON. That is what “WE*” – all who participate in the historical group process by calling America our home – EXPECT TO SEE TOMORROW. MOST ALL WILL SEE HIM AS ‘WEAK’ UNLESS HE DOES.
Thus, what we* are left with, after all is said and done (“at the end of the day”, as it’s said now), is merger in a group process that has objectified its desire to “kill the Father” by projecting it into “McCrystal”. He is surely no more guilty of actually entertaining the idea, or anything close to it, not even insubordination (which is why he would apologize) than any Rolling Stone reader. But they, already ‘60’s Id-rep* icons that they are, will expose General McCrystal for even tolerating others around him speaking disrespectfully.
Sacrifice purges – now that the Really Bad Boy has been PUNISHED FOR HIS REFUSAL TO HONOR THE FATHER OF US ALL, we can all feel as if “we” are “born again”, together! – FEELING NEW GROUP-UNITY IN CLEANSED, STRENGTHENED COMMAND-POWER! This is blood –flow of the Upper Triad (EcstasiSpirit)
6.21 KOCH’s CROTCH KICK
“Obama is weak on Israel”, NYC ex-Mayor said on Fox TV, citing his preferring Egypt to Israel for the President’s first Mid East address in ’08.
-The faux Big news item was “right wing”/Republican politicos, led by Rep. Barton’s labeling BP $20B compensation a “slush fund”, forming a grammatical line shielding Big Oil/corporation interests. Scandalous! MSNBC’s Ed show said, reiterated ad nauseum by Olberman, Maddow, Matthews
In general, Monday after Dad’s day, witnessed a big PR push in the media to gloss over U.S.-Israeli tensions, such as over investigation of the Gaze flotilla murders, to find some mutually suitable frame to narrate Obama and Netanyahu’s scheduled meeting in July. Rham Emanuel emerged to berate Barton and announce “2 philosophical positions” are unfolding between Democrats and Republicans, without elaborating on what they are. Krathhammer virulently defends Israel, while Ed Stein continues to be excited for –ING, or something. Tony Kornheiser pops up with a black co-hort on ESPN, hasselling out World Cup level sports issues.
Everything is as if people had gone into an altered state, another level of self-referenced group process, based on lying about themselves by identifying with what others can be manipulated into thinking they are seeing and present to. The weirdness of the irreality reached a new level of apotheosis Monday. It was instantly followed by McCrystal’s Crucifixion.
6.20 FATHER’S DAY - Sunday
“By The Numbers” – 100th anniversary of the concept
“According to the Census Bureau, Father's Day started on June 19, 1910, when the mayor of Spokane, Wash., proclaimed the first such celebration. He did so to help a Spokane woman, Sonora Dodd, honor her father, William Smart, a widower and Civil War veteran who raised six kids by himself. It wasn't until 1966 when President Lyndon B. Johnson made the third Sunday in June Father's Day, and President Richard Nixon followed in 1972 by signing a law making Father's Day permanent.” http://www.pressconnects.com/article/20100620/VIEWPOINTS/6200318/1120/Dads--day-by-the-numbers
NYTimes Week featured Daniel (son) and Tony (father) Judt; he known as firm critic of Israel’s behavior, but together discussing generational responsibility for care of the planet.
Background context is the ugly, ugly oil gush into the waters of the Gulf of Mexico. No mere humanly contrived symbol could so graphically manifest destruction of America’s conscious path by its Unconscious, as if karmic return for its violation of Mother earth. At the post-Oedipal, sexualized
fantasy level, the black oil is Osiris’ semen headed up the mouth of the Mississippi.
It is Her response in kind, entirely according to laws of psychodynamics and time, canceling the possibility of re-producing (2nd rebirth) their species through Her.
As for Father In Heaven, personified by President Obama, he won’t push the button to nuke the damn hole shut! He’s showing up weak, like Jimmy Carter. Doesn’t have what’s needed to get the job done. In bed with BP, it looked like, until he extracted the $20B pay-out fund from them. “Extremist leftist” he is called by “Real American’s Defend Israel” blogspot site, advocating Obama’s impeachment (cited on Drudge)
