In this episode, we continue to define the feminine and masculine spirits in terms of the unconscious and the conscious, respectively. We begin with a discussion on the nature of the psyche in terms of the relationship between the conscious and the unconscious. To do this, we invoke Kant's concept of the scheme and schemata, completion of the identity in quantum mechanics, general covariance and conserved quantities under symmetry transformations. We also discuss how conscious awareness develops from affective data transferred from the unconscious to the conscious and reflective data transferred from the conscious to the unconscious. After this, we enter into a conversation on why the unconscious should be associated with the feminine and conscious should be associated with the masculine. It is argued that this is justified based off the symbolic work of Karl Jung, the study of comparative religions, and the observed difference on average between men and women of preferences and behavior. The conversation really starts to get interesting when we discuss how the feminine and the masculine become corrupted. In both cases, corruption is defined by the attempt to dominate the other. We discuss how this manifests in the feminine when it becomes animus possessed and in the masculine when it becomes anima possessed. Again, in both cases, these possessions occur due to suppression of masculine data by the feminine and feminine data by the masculine. We also discuss how this unhealthy unbalanced relationship between the feminine and masculine lead to delusions and a fractured psyche. We also critique and discuss how these distortions manifest in post-modernist thought and how the endeavor attempts to give voice to the feminine but does it in a corrupt way by denying the masculine while still trying to invoke the masculine. Finally, we end on a positive note by discussing when the feminine and masculine are in harmony. We argue that they come into harmony when both act as servants to each other. That is, the feminine/unconscious gives loving sincere unfractured data to the conscious, and the conscious acknowledges the data, as opposed to suppressing it, and takes actions to feed good data back to the unconscious. That is, it adjust the structure that makes up the conscious to loving reflect and address the data coming from the unconscious. The conversation culminates in a discussion on how the practice of Buddhism is indicative of the righteous feminine or mother and Christianity is a reflection of the righteous conscious or masculine.
