A Mystery

UNDERSTAND …

… that thou hast within thyself herds of cattle, flocks of sheep and flocks of goats. Understand that the fowls of the air are also within thee. Marvel not if we say that these are within thee, but understand that thou thyself art another world in little and hast within thee the sun and the moon, and also the stars. Thou seest that thou has all those things which the world hath.

— Origen, In Leviticum Homiliae [from C.G. Jung, Mysterium Coniunctionis*, pg. 8]
