La Croix
The Quatrain
Symbole de la douleur, La croix annonce un malheur. Mais si la croix est loin, Tu seras vite consolé.
The cross carries suffering, but distance lessens its weight. Far away, grief moves toward consolation.
The Archetype
Real suffering, and a real promise that distance lessens its weight over time. Jung took seriously that psychic pain does genuinely metabolize given enough time and perspective — not erased, but carried differently the further it recedes.
A Practice For Today
Give yourself credit today for one piece of old pain that genuinely weighs less now than it once did.
