I was hanging out with Dhyana in this warehouse it was kind of like an IKEA but more so a giant open garage with lots of sunshine and summer air blowing in. Dhyana was showing me this nature scene on a giant glass jar she painted. It looked like it took a reeeeally long time, and though she is awesome at a lot of things, I had no idea she could paint like that!
She also showed me some other work she had apparently painted upside down on the ceiling by hand, but it didn't look like a painting. It seemed to be an arrangement of wet shimmering reflective blue china that flickered and glowed and some how looked better then reality.. The ceiling was so high we had to view it's magnified reflection in a giant mirror bowl that rested on the floor...I was soooo amazed!
I really wanted to paint a glass jar too, so I went looking for the paints but I could only find white. I asked Dhyana where the rest of the paints were? and she said "no it's effortless, here let me show you." As she painted with white the paint seemed to react with something invisible the was already present on it's surface. I smiled and started quickly painting mine, but when I was done I didn't really like the picture. Then this African guy came by and told me I had to pay $50 for the jar anyways and I was really disappointed. Then the guy changed out of his work clothes and backed his gangster car into the space, and I noticed something strange on the tires. It was really faint at first but then as it became stronger and I noticed it was the same nature pattern as on Dhyana's glass jar.
I was like "Haaaay, what's going on there?" and pointed to the tires. To which Dhyana smiled and replied wisely "no, the tires are the glass jar."

The deepest and most ancient meaning of the myth of the giant alludes
to the supposed existence of an immense, primordial being, by whose sacrifice
creation was brought forth. This cosmogonic myth was very common among
primitive and ancient peoples, and it shows how rites involving the sacrifice of
humans are an attempt to revive the initial sacrifice and to resuscitate the cosmic
forces or to reawaken, at least, their favourable proclivities (17). Now, the giant
is, in himself, neither good nor bad, but merely a quantitative amplification of the
ordinary; hence, as the case may be, there are some legendary giants who are
protectors and others who are aggressive. This sense of the giant as ‘that which
surpasses’ human stature (here symbolic of power and strength), is also indicative of the broad significance of the giant. He may be an image of the ‘Terrible
Father’, arising from childhood memories—children see their parents as giants—
or an image of the unconscious, the ‘dark side’ of the personality menacing the
Jungian Selbst (21), etc. It is interesting to note that in folklore the giant is tutelar
in character: he is usually the defender of the common people against the overlord, upholding their liberties and rights. Without generalizing, one implication of
the giant may be said to be the personification of collective Man—as implied in
the maxim ‘united we stand’—or of the life of a community (16). But the general
myth of the giant is far from being confined to this specialized meaning. In nearly
all symbolic traditions, he tends to appear as an outcropping of the marvellous
and the terrible, even though he always has a certain quality of the inferior or the
subordinate about him. The Bible refers to Goliath and to Og, king of Bashan at
the time of the exodus (46). Samson has certain characteristics of the giant. In the
West, Bodo, Rübezahl, Geryon, Gargantua and Hercules are the most significant
in gigantomachy; in Greek tradition, there are the Titans and the Cyclops. Christian tradition has often seen Satan as a giant (50). The tragic hero is intimately
linked with the giant, although, at times, in inverse relation as his adversary (60).
Frazer describes the numerous cases in which giant figures in wood or wickerwork were set fire to during midsummer festivals, comparable with the Valencian
fallas (or bonfires). The ancients would fill these figures with animals and even
live men, who were burnt with the effigy. They were considered as representatives of the spirit of vegetation, or of the god sacrificed to the world—which
brings us back once again to our cosmogonic interpretation. The giant may be a
symbol of ‘everlasting rebellion’, of the forces of dissatisfaction which grow
within Man and determine his history and his destiny; it may, that is to say, be a
symbol of the Universal Man (Adam Kadmon, 21). Now, according to Jungian 119 GOG AND MAGOG
psychology, the giant’s essence—or his appearance, rather—seems to correspond to the father-symbol, representing the spirit that withstands the instincts,
or as the guardian of the treasure (that is, the mother—the unconscious), in which
case it is identical with the dragon-symbol. Reviewing all this, Jung quotes the
example of Humbaba, the guardian of the garden of Ishtar in the Gilgamesh epic
(31).

stand for the Sun, the Moon and the five planets (14). This concept is wholly

and the abstract with the vital forces of plant and animal life.
