POTUS et al

POTUS et al

(-Squared Text-token constructs: Mercurius Duplex)

Nibiru as psychic fact

Common text acronymn for President of United States, POTUS is currently a rigid designator of Barak Hussein Obama. This doubling of designations, a natural name* (*assigned by birth certificate not in evidence) and an abbreviation of his official title, constitutes a historical fact understood by all as defining the present situation, whatever one choses to make of it. Barak Hussein Obama is the 44th President of the Unites States (call this S*). What is communicated by S* can be examined from two sides, according to its text – what it says; a certified truth; and its tokens – how it says it. The “it”, as unit of pronominal reference, is a dyad, token-communicating-text in the articulate conscious experience of whoever reads or hears it.
It is as if two separate and distinct types of relations and facts have been brought together to create S*: those that arranged for it to be true, including the lengthy election process; and those that arranged to have meanings constructed and applied to objects as they are. This sign-use has become so highly ritualistic, any deviation so threatening (anathema, ‘radio-active’), the tiny glitch committed at the centerpiece of ‘passing the torch’ ceremony compelled Roberts and Obama to administer and swear the oath twice (*but without the Bible the second time, as if trying to repair one error repeats another, as Freud said when there were resisteances.) This flaw matches the missing birth certificate. A big question of legitimacy hangs over S*, given it is undeniably true.


The following is a partial psychosemiotic exposition of what S* communicates, as text and token conjoined.

In the same field* of acronomic grammar are: SOTU, UN, EU, NATO, among globally recognized text-tokens. ...
….AIPAC, ADL, AEI, JINSA,…such condensed group talk seems to go with Jewish organizations, associat-ing/-ed with their reputation for superior intelligence. It’s as if any and every situation you might ever come across had been named, described, judged and jived on, already. Exception: GOPUSA. Went too far on the pronounceable-token side, standing in in the early ‘00’s for Log Cabin Republicans, aka reverse-gay political activists like ‘Guckert’ who whipped up anti-homosexual sentiment in order to organize conservatives. Too many LOL’s written into that, after they were exposed manipulating POTUS’ PC’s.

The question I wish to discuss is whether such discourse, become common and necessary for personal classification for survival, might not become diseased, as in the manner of institutionalized predication on self-contradiction; with systemically disorienting effect on the psychic functions linked by use of such signs in communication.

One sort of defect qualifying as a disease in communication is predication on self-contradictions. The classic example in philosophy is ‘the round square’, an ‘object’ in Alexis Meinong’s theory of reference (ontology). What is predicable of round squares, logically, is that they don’t exist. Meinong allowed self-contradictory terms of reference as long as they were not asserted to exist. What exists must be free of contradiction, certainly, but as a mental content, the non-existent must be posited as a possibility. Thus, in its sign uses, The Mind includes both the existent and the non-existent.

Much of the grammatical intrusion in this sort of reasoning is eliminated simply by Russell’s analysis of “the”, which removes it from such terms as “existent” in literal discourse. The strict logical rules for its use in literal descriptive true-false text are misapplied when such abstract, non-definite subjects are posited.

The logical form of the disease would be predicating on Meinongian monstrocities as existing, talked about as realities – in the worst case, because they ARE self contradictory. A variant of this limiting, extreme condition has infected communication through this POTUS is my thesis. This can only be understood by following out the distinction between text and token, as the standing opposites functionally posited by the act or process of communication in general, whatever its content.

The variant of strict logical self-contradiction encountered in daily (political) life is actually predicating, e.g., roundness of squares.

This example is doubly appropriate, in that Squares*, sign-uses whose text stand in the relation of repeating-in-another-dimension to their tokens, are required to predicate on as existent objects of the lowest S* type level. This use of “Square”, to mark an internal relation of text to token in sign use, can be called “psychosemiotic”. The one-one relation between name and thing named which is presupposed by application of the logic of quantification is the linear, or digital “squaring” of Squaring, itself. In public perceptual space, the square is always the front of a cube. In TokenSpace, which is the conscious container for content in general, including imagination, they are two dimensional. In this two dimensional setting, the lines of the four sides, correlated as text (-> upper horizontal) to token (! left vertical) define a unit of discourse under this simplest geometry.

The Psychosemiotic Gap
Metaphysics
And Religious assumptions

The limit case of inability to communicate has been reached in the Palestinian-Israeli war over Gaza. Long tenured NYTimes correspondent Ethan Bronner notes that language bridging the language gap between the two sides has become so impossible that any attempt at neutrality is interpreted by each side as favoring the other.

GAZA NOTEBOOK
The Bullets in My In-Box
“… the two sides speak in two distinct tongues, …the very words they use mean opposite things to each other, …the war of language can confound a reporter’s attempts to narrate — or a new president’s attempts to mediate — this conflict in a way both sides can accept as fair.” This is pointedly illustrated by reactions to Zionism. (Story of a prominent Palestinian’s visit to Tel Aviv after 1967, encountering a policeman…) At one point the policeman said to him, “As a proud Zionist, I must tell you ....” At which Mr. Husseini burst out laughing. What’s so funny? the policeman asked. “I have never in my life,” Mr. Husseini replied, “heard anyone refer to Zionism with anything but contempt. I had no idea you could be a proud Zionist.”

I guess it would be like a black policeman who says “We’re all proud to be niggers around here.” One wouldn’t know what that meant or how to react, at first. Could he be serious? What would that mean?

Analysis:
Power-coded Group fantasy terms, such as Zionist, nigger, queer, are brain 3/2 (snake-over-soul) constructs inserted into the referential discourse of brain 1. To say anything with them, or about them, evokes a totality reaction, one way or another; that is what they are supposed to do, their psychosemiotic function. They are ‘splitters’, eliciting irreconcilable reactions.

Words or phrases functioning as splitters exhibit the form Carl Jung described as Mercurius Duplex in alchemy. Mercurius is the ‘messenger’ from the Unconsciousn to Consciousness, hence partaking I the nature of both. He is The Unconscious as source of, or beazring consciousness in it, like the womb. This is Sol in Luna: the Black Sun, Obama and the Return of Nibiru. These connect in current Griup Fantast configuration

There is a special feeling you have on the day you know you were born, (‘Birthday’) Its like remembering oneself in a specific and unique way. I had it all day yesterday by mistake. Which shows the date doesn’t have to square with the state. Therefore “your birthday” doesn’t have to be marked on the calendar to be experienced, and what is marked on the calendar may not be when you experience it. Your birthday is an entity tied to Mercurius Duplex.

As Sol

“Generally Sol is regarded as the masculine and active half of Mercurius, a supraordinate concept … . Since, in his alchemical form, Mercrius does not exist in reality, he must be an unconscious projection, and because he is an absolutely fundamental concept in alchemy he must signify the unconscious itself.”

‘Mercurius’ is how the Unconscious personifies itself to/in consciousness – simultaneous representation and what it represents, in the act of entertaining it. (“Squared” conscious-unconscious relationship by text-token: Greek figure of God with winged feet carrying messages from above below – upside down reversal.) It (the Unconscious) is the Dark, Black side of consciousness, even though consciousness ‘rises out of it’ diurnally, as sleep-dream function is replaced by signified S* function on awaking. ‘He’ is thus already a reflection of the source of light in the heart of darkness; the content of his messages (texting the dream tokens) brings light even as the sun’s rays bathe earth. The Black Sun squares this content of consciousness. The alchemical Mercury is the Black Sun.

“He is by his very nature the unconscious, where nothing is differentiated; but as a spiritus vegetativus (living spirit) he is an active principle and so must always appear in reality in differentiated form. (Note: the differentiated undifferentiated) He is therefore fittingly called “duplex,” both active and passive. The “ascending,” active part of him is called Sol, and it is only through this that the passive part can be perceived. The passive part therefore bears the name Luna, because she borrows her light from the sun. Mercurius demonstrably corresponds to the cosmic Nous of the classical philosophers.”

As Black
Jung took alchemy, the process of converting base material into gold, as projected psychology, confirming the reality of the Unscious as an active dynamic factor in the human psyche. The duality it brings is repeated in the distinction between the stream of tokens in communication, arising out of and disappearing back into the causal processes producing them. Each S*, overlaying token S by textual use, is a matching of unconscious processes ‘from below’ with (also unconscious) cortical processes “from above” to produce the articulate content. Alchemical projection of the duality takes chemical substances as tokens of unconscious fantasy text, as if psychological relationships could be pictured. This applies particularly to the reality of the Darkness, equal to that of Light. “Consciousness requires as its necessary counterpart a dark, latent, non-manifest side, the unconscious, whose presence can be known only by the light of consciousness…..: The alchemical Sol contains both light and darkness; the shadow was part of the sun. …The shadow is thought of quite concretely. The redness (rubedo) of the sun’s light is the red sulphur in it, the active burning principle, destructive in its effects. In man, the ‘natural sulphur’ is identical with an ‘elemental fire’ (Dorn) which is the “cause of corruption,” and this fire is “enkindled by an invisible sun unknown to many, that is, the sun of the Philosophers. The natural sulphur tends to revert to its first nature, so that the body becomes ‘sulphorous’ and fitted to receive fire that ‘corrupts man back to his first essence.’ The sun is evidently an instrument in the physiological and psychological drama of return to the prim material, the death that must be undergone if man is to get back to the original condition of the simple elements and attain the incorrupt nature of the pre-worldly paradise. For Dorn, this process was spiritual and moral as well as physical.” (Mysterium Conjunctionis, 96f)

It should be noted here that Jung, the psychologist, is presuming to correct the theologian, Augustine, who held that God was the fullness of Being, perfect in every respect; non-being did not exist, and evil consisted in falsifying appearances. Psychologically there is more, Jung says. There are invisible dynamic opposites of Light and Dark not identical with textual distinctions between true and false, being and non-being. This if the difference between the logic of contradiction (=>linear, digital metaphysics, suited to grammatical form) and the logic of contraries (opposed qualities => dynamics of change between polarities), the logic of bodies in space (causal) and the logic of tokenized sign-use in time (speaking as the ‘space-time’ dyad is used colloquially). Thus if, as today, the Black Sun content is projected not into the communication of alchemists, but into the starry beyond from which Nibiru comes, it is not, on Jung’s reckoning, to be dismissed as a hoax. For the American Unconscious Group Fantasy, it can mark the celebration of its death/birthday.

There was an old saying at the Farm. “If you’re lying, you’re dying.” Today, 1.26.09, the lying has been going on for so long the “dead” part required to produce the prima material is a given, when it comes to old White Skin White Soul group fantasy tokens. The Black Skin Black Soul is the constellated opposite ‘birthed’ from the one sidedness of the other. When, under the excesses of the Bush-Cheney regime, the White Man’s relationship to (his own) God was cut off, the White man’s soul turned black. Since skin color marks the visible opposition, suppressed by Citizen equality, the logically compensation is the Black man’s soul turns White. Where the White Man with Black Soul led to death, the Black man with White Soul will lead back to life. That is how the Conscious/Unconscious dynamic has played it out, at the X point of American history ’08 - x ’09. There is just one problem, and it’s not small. The Black Son, of American myth, is also Mercurius Duplex, The Black Sun: Nibiru.
