Why the Nigredo Happens — The Dark Night of the Soul Explained | Jungian psychology

The "Dark Night of the Soul" is not merely a period of sadness; it is a structural necessity in the architecture of the psyche. In the Hermetic tradition, this is known as the Nigredo—the Blackening. It is the first and most critical stage of the Great Work, where the lead of the ego is calcined to make way for the gold of the Spirit. In this video, The Hermetic School deconstructs the philosophical and psychological mechanics of the Nigredo. Drawing from the works of Paracelsus, the symbolism of the Rosarium Philosophorum, and the analytical psychology of Carl Jung, we analyze why the collapse of meaning is the prerequisite for true spiritual integration. We explore: The Genesis: Why the spiritual path begins with heaviness and loss. The Architecture: The decomposition of the Tria Prima (Salt, Sulfur, Mercury). The Stages: From Massa Confusa to Putrefactio and Mortificatio. The Distinction: The vital difference between clinical depression and the philosophical Nigredo. The Outcome: How the integrated "Shadow" forms the foundation of the New Self. "The gold you seek is not found by fleeing the crucible, but by the Will that dares to burn along with it." 👉 Subscribe for more deep Hermetic, psychological, and alchemical investigations.    / @thehermeticschool
