    The movie Spirited Away, along with the classics like Wizzard of Oz and Alice in Wonderland, are similar to ancient esoteric stories about the soul getting trapped in the material world, gaining knowledge and wisdom, and finding its way back home. In Spirited Away, an evil witch in the weird fantasy land gave Chihiro a different name (Sen). A key idea in the movie was that in order to return home you need to remember your original name. Thus you remember your original identity and your origin.

    I loved the album and I did pick up on the multiple cross references in blue but I was struggling to put it all together. This video was much needed, thank you!

    It feels like she can't get close to anyone real who would actually know her and love her because of her trauma and her fear to get attached and lose people whenever they decide to leave her. Which they always do because they're wrong for her. And i don't blame her for being this way because she probably has some unresolved issues that lead her to choosing this traumatic cycle because it feels familiar to her, so she thinks love can only look this way. When she tries getting close she's always severely disappointed which leads her to feel betrayal and the feeling of rejection feels like she's drowning because she feels like nobody will ever love her the same way she gives her love to others and understand her, care for her the way she is understanding and caring towards others. That is why she says did you take my love away? Because love to her, closeness and intimacy are the most important treasures to her that she does not give away often or easily. I think she feels as if she doesn't deserve happiness at this point because of the few times she has gained courage to give her love away only to end up being manipulated, gaslighted, used, groomed and hurt. They keep taking advantage of her innocence, she is very naive and believes others have good intentions when they don't. And because she has not healed enough or evolved enough yet she keeps letting people in her life who don't deserve her and she keeps choosing them wrong and creating this pattern. She doesn't realize ultimately she is the one to blame for ignoring the red flags these people have and continuing to choose them because she wants to believe everyone is like her and everyone has good in them or potentially can change or she can help them or change them. And she does this and allows all of this because she just wants love at the end of the day. she knows it might not be real but she turns a blind eye because even if it's all a lie at least for a while, just for a little bit she can feel loved. So she is letting people give her crumbs which is very sad. I hope she can find herself and realize her worth and find someone who truly adores her, not for any ulterior motives or to gain anything from her or expect anything but because they truly care for her, her well being, they truly see her, love her as she is and want to add to her life instead.
    Note: My Major is psychology.

      I agree, and the fact that she chooses to let them give her crumbs instead of truly giving herself time to heal and be able to set boundaries and be aware she could truly experience love but for now by her choice she still in this cycle and I hope she takes herself out of it.

    In Blue, Billie sings:
    "I sleep about 3 hours each night
    Means only 21 a week now"
    She seems to be playing with the symbolism of numbers 3, 7 and 21 here.
    Number 3: trinity, an entity (Father) comprising an individualizing/separating part (Son) and a collectivizing/unifying part (Holy Spirit). Or a 3-step cycle of life and creation: (1) starting position, (2) descent (separation), (3) ascent (reunion); or the Hegelian dialectical cycle: (1) thesis, (2) antithesis, (3) synthesis; or the alchemical process of (1) taking some mundane stuff, (2) breaking it into parts (solve), (3) synthesizing the parts into some precious stuff like gold or, ultimately, the Philosopher's stone (coagula).
    Number 7: completeness, Biblical six days of work consummated by a holy day of rest.
    Number 21: the product of 3 and 7. Maybe also symbolizing maturity as the age of legal adulthood used to be 21 years in the US (which still remains the legal drinking age).

    The greatest, i interpreted that the person could have been the greatest too because she is the greatest, rather than as the greatest person for her like what you said.

    • @signsandsymbols
      @signsandsymbols  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    What if skinny is not about two different peopel but rather about each other. Like two povs of the same relationship?

    • @signsandsymbols
      @signsandsymbols  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      this one I'm thinking probably not on, because 1. she was the one that lost weight and is coming out and 2. she is also the one with a platform with fans that want to hear about the drama in her life

    Tbh to me, a older generation, it just sounds like every song in the 80s. Nothing new, nothing brilliant. Very disappointed

      maybe you need a new genre outside of pop to hear something novel. try some Kendrick Lamar, Daft Punk, or even Indie Rock to find a new vibe :)
