What I said in my last post reminds me of this song, especially this part:
What we do is innocent
Just for fun and nothin’ meant
Earlier, it says this (I guess censored in the video):
Livin’ in sin is the new thing
What you do in your dominant function is innocent (there’s no agenda), but it’s simultaneously a sin from the perspective of your inferior function.
I didn’t have time to do this before, but I want to go back to “Gloria” and highlight the words that indicate inferior function experience to me:
Gloria, you’re always on the run now
(Displaced from psychological home)
Running after somebody, you gotta get him somehow
(Desperation)
I think you’ve got to slow down before you start to blow it
(Needing caution, danger ahead)
I think you’re headed for a breakdown, so be careful not to show it
(Reckless use of inferior function results in disasters and is where you experience shame, which you feel like you have to deny to protect your reputation)
You really don’t remember, was it something that he said?
(Triggering event)
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
(For some people this is the literal form their inferior function takes)
Gloria, don’t you think you’re fallin’?
(Falling from the grace of the dominant function)
If everybody wants you, why isn’t anybody callin’?
(Narcissism)
You don’t have to answer
Leave them hangin’ on the line, oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria
(Boundary problem)
Gloria (Gloria), I think they got your number (Gloria)
(Attracting stalkers, attackers, parasites, etc.)
I think they got the alias (Gloria) that you’ve been living under (Gloria)
(Hiding)
But you really don’t remember, was it something that they said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
A-ha-ha, a-ha-ha, Gloria, how’s it gonna go down?
Will you meet him on the main line, or will you catch him on the rebound?
Will you marry for the money, take a lover in the afternoon?
(Loveless)
Feel your innocence slipping away, don’t believe it’s comin’ back soon
(Dominant function is innocence, “not coming back soon” = she’s in deep)
This is when you’re having a “coming out” experience with your dominant function. Your expression of your uniqueness is trying to come out and other people (a representation of your inferior function trying to keep its grip on you) are trying to hold you back. Your expression is painted as delusional because, for your opposite personality type, it genuinely would be. But it’s not for you. You’re the real thing. That’s why nobody can ultimately hold you back.
People have got you in a situation where if you can’t repress your dominant function like they want, they’re going to do something really bad to you, so you know you should try to stuff it down, but you can’t. You’re a criminal just for being yourself and doing what you need to be doing to be mentally healthy.
Pluto = authenticity = criminality = power
Pop songs are full of occult meaning and magic. I am enjoying this. If I am not getting every point you are making.
