Rebel, Mother, Mystic: Sinéad O’Connor - the Complete Christ Archetype
#repost @brianjames.soulwork
"I came away from watching the new documentary about Sinéad O’Connor last night thinking about how she, more than any other artist of her generation, embodied the Christ archetype.
According to Jung, Christ is the archetype of the human capacity for wholeness. However, in the Christian tradition it is split from the dark side of humanity, manifesting in Christ’s adversary Lucifer, who is associated with primal desires and instincts, the body and matter.
When the Christ archetype manifests through Sinéad, a woman and mother, it comes into true wholeness. She expresses not only the spiritual side of the archetype but also the “dark side” - through her sensuality, sexuality, gender play, dancing and primal scream.
Robert Moore’s model of the King, Warrior, Magician, Lover offers us insight into the parts that make up the whole Self. In all cultures throughout time, the quaternio has been a symbol of wholeness. One need only think of the four seasons, the four directions, the four elements and so on. For Jung, this is why the Christian trinity remained incomplete until the assumption of Mary by the Catholic Church in 1950.
The incarnation of Christ in a female figure completes the picture. In Sinéad we can see a full expression of the King/Queen, Warrior, Magician and Lover archetypes in both their shadow and light forms.
Like Christ, she fiercely stands up for what she believes in, refusing to let organized religion get in the way of her direct connection to the divine, and refusing to let the music business get in the way of her mothering and artistic expression. She is a rebel, mother, lover, mystic and artist.
When Sinéad tore up a picture of the Pope on live television in protest of the Catholic Church’s abuse of children it was akin to Jesus ransacking the temple. In doing so she sacrificed her reputation and career, and paved the way for female artists in the future to follow their own path and express themselves more fully and freely.
As Jung said, to imitate Christ is to live true to one’s own calling and destiny, accepting the conflict and suffering that comes along with a rejection of familial and societal expectations. Thank God for Sinéad."

May God bless Sinead. She stood up for what she believed in and I agreed with her.
Thank-you for this message in the description section. Today I woke hearing the musical notes of her: "Thank-you for hearing me". Sineád always stood out to me as a High Priestess of Love. She fought many battles and she was a very courageous woman. Much Love and Respect for Dearest Sineád. 🕊🌸🌻
Fabulous and Sinead gave 💯 to every song she sung. You can here her passion in each word. May she Rest In Peace, together with her son Shane. Regards from Ireland 🇮🇪 💚
Шинейд - всегда разная, непредсказуемая, красивая, божественная!!!!!
My true hero. Much love and respect.
Thank you, Brian, for this thoughtful commentary. It lands in my heart -- swells it, and soothes it. Sinéad was so many things. Complex, flawed, vulnerable, fierce, such a mother, and so very talented. Thank you Helena, for reposting Brian's piece.
Drahá Sinead,byla jsi pro nás darem z nebes... děkuji za tvé písně,za nadpozemský hlas...ach,kdybych tě tak směla obejmout, když jsi trpěla a utěšit tvou ztrápenou duši , držet tě dokud bys všechnu bolest nevyplakala🙏🙏🙏 odpočívej v pokoji se svým drahým synem...❤❤❤

Christ was completely healed and reached the highest level of consciousness. Unfortunately, Sinead, devolved. Which is has happened many times to many soulful and special people. So there is a big distinction there.

Thank you for uploading this piece. I haven’t heard it. I’m now in tears again. We have lost her from this world. She was not of this world but it would have been so lovely to see her grow older with us. Is anyone able to tell me which album this song is on? I keep listening to her and watching her as if it might keep her here. I can’t imagine how her family feel. Such a wrenching grief.

This beautiful song, "One More Day," is on the soundtrack to the movie Veronica Guerin as well as another called "The Funeral." I'm not sure if it's on any of Sinead's studio albums. Peace to you.
Ich kann nicht ohne dich sollb ein Zeichen da für sein das wir immer bei dir sind
May we all find that strength in us in ways to make this world a better place. Amen.
You are so deeply loved.❤️☮️
Rest in Power, Sinéad! I love you! Always have! Always will!

One More Day (The Funeral) -- Sinead O'Connor My love more dear than this life you are to me Your kiss more clear than the crystal of the sea Please save me I'm fallen here I'm lost and alone An angel weeps I hear him cry A lonely prayer A voice so high Dry all your tears Come what may And in the end the sun will rise On one more day Hey [Gaelic singing] Dry all your tears Come what may And in the end the sun will rise On one more day Hey The sun will rise on one more day
It's an old song. One More Day.

Você estava linda nesta foto minha Rainha da Irlanda Sinéad O'Connor é a única e melhor voz de todos os tempos. Nos deixou cedo e por morte natural, mas está fazendo falta para nós. Adeus ícone. 🙏🕊

God given Rip
She continued to suffer. She continued to STRUGGLE. She tried to revert to ISLAM ---- BUT TO REVERT TO ISLAM---- creation and participation into UMMAH is quite essential. She could not create and participate into ISLAMIC UMMAH.

Can you explain this with a little more detail. I am trying to figure out what you mean. Thank you.
I love you ❤❤❤
May be she was Muslim at heart ----- and her death was medical accident------ accidental overdose of psyche meds.
Christ completed cycles and healed. I would be contemplative about the title ans energy behind this video. I adore Sinead. To make claims connected to Christ that do not reflect deep truth is a form of blasphemy.....you may be projecting things.
Уникальный человек. Потому что НАСТОЯЩИЙ. И голос Свыше
