The Blindspot

Let me reiterate, one more time for the record..... Neptune rules the sacramental (medicinal, ritualized, etc) use of chemicals, whereas Pluto rules addictions (chemical or otherwise)... this may be best illustrated by the fact that addiction makes use of the phenomenon called Denial, and most people are only marginally aware of the fact that they even have a blindspot (home of the Jungian "Shadow", and where we all store our unresolved emotional baggage... The Shadow grows as we get older and includes all the parts of ourselves we are ashamed to admit etc...) Jung always pointed out that the resolution to the issue of the Shadow was Integration, rather than "casting out" (ala the Devil or demons in the old Aeon).. Bring the Shadow to the table and own it! You wouldn't cut of your leg because your foot itched, would you?
