Ah, the collapse of Rome. Much needed in Washington and London - albeit that in London things have been shaken up badly thanks to Brexit already and the smell of real change is in the air.

It does seem to be a time of very big change.

The 'fall' of Rome was NO pretty affair...a lot of war, pillage, torture, murder, theft, rape, fear, chaos, misery, etc. I don't expect the fall the any of the current Empire[lettes] will be pretty either....

I completely agree Pete. But let's face it, we already have war, pillage, murder, theft, fear, chaos and misery etc all over the world thanks to US foreign policy. It is inevitable that this would eventually come back and bite the exporter of these evils. The real question, as we've discussed before, is whether the world survives the experience. For me 2017 is a critical point and my fingers are firmly crossed, for a minor miscalculation can lead to a major war.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
