$Psychological Splitting in the Birth Chart | Jessica DiRuzza | Trust Psyche Psychological splitting is one of our primary defense mechanisms, a normal and healthy function of the individual psyche that occurs in every human being. On the one hand, it offers us protection until we are strong and ready enough to encounter and integrate those parts of ourselves, both good and bad, that initially feel foreign to the ego. On the other hand, splitting functions more deeply, transcending our individual psyches by serving collective and transpersonal purposes. Psyche is not just within us but is the universal mind in which we all swim together. In this sense, psyche is fractal, and we are each a diamond whose facets catch the light of communal relation in a kaleidoscopic network of interactions. We play different roles for one another, not just due to individual projections, but as part of a larger group gestalt—a broader process of psyche coming to know itself better as each individual becomes more integrated through working on their relationships. Psychological splitting is more than just a defense mechanism; it is a way you hold a piece of me until I am ready to recognize it as myself, and vice versa. In our closest relationships, our friends and partners often carry traits that we have trouble accepting as our own. By being in these relationships, we can slowly integrate those seemingly foreign traits. Thus, splitting is not pathological but a way of integrating Self at a pace we can handle. It is a form of amnesia that benefits us. Just as we cannot see all our past lives lest we be overwhelmed by their weight and unable to engage cleanly in the present, so too are we unable to see all parts of ourselves right away. We must gradually become that which we already are potentially. We do this by interacting with people and our environment, slowly reclaiming those parts of our Self that we initially split off for our own good. Splitting relates to the Saturn-Pluto complex in the sky presently. By looking at the birth chart, we can see the unique ways each of us is prone to splitting. By identifying and working with these personal archetypal themes, we are aided on our soul journey toward becoming our fullest selves.
