So I have been getting more and more interested in space. In thinking about the vastness of it all, I can’t help but wonder how people interpret this through a Jungian psychology lens.

Do experiences of cosmic scale or insignificance ever connect to ideas like the unconscious, the Self, or the way we relate to meaning in a psychological sense? I sometimes find myself wondering whether our actions matter long term, or if that feeling is more about how the psyche responds to scale and uncertainty.

I've been cleaning up along trails and just wondering if there are spots you guys have found with a good amount of litter? I just want to make sure my efforts are in the right spots

So I have been feeling sort of like I am not really taking actions to leave the world a better place then I found it. For this reason I am donating monthly to causes I believe in. I feel guilty because I think I am donating to make myself feel better, and think this could be unethical in some way? Like I am using the suffering of others and donating to feel better.

I can mitigate this somewhat by not telling people I know that I donate so it is more altruistic but I am not sure how one addresses this other side where a part of me knows I am doing this to find more fulfillment.
