The Forgotten Warmth of Antiquity: A Macro-Historical Perspective
When we encounter the term “climate change,” we often perceive it purely as an unprecedented catastrophe born of human destruction. However, when we unfold the history of Earth on a macroscopic scale, it becomes evident that even current climate variability is part of a colossal natural cycle. During the ancient era about 5,000 years ago, our planet was passing through the “Holocene Climate Optimum”. The global average temperature was higher than it is today, and the area around Russia’s Lake Baikal—now known as a freezing tundra—was a very warm and abundant steppe. The fact that early humans could actively lead a nomadic life around Lake Baikal and build the emotional and cultural backbone of a continental stage was precisely due to this massive, cyclical benevolence of nature. Earth has never possessed a fixed climate for a single moment; it has constantly breathed and transformed. Deep within the collective unconscious of humanity lies a resilient “nomadic archetype,” forged to survive in step with these dynamic earthly shifts. Yet, under the guise of civilization, modern humanity has locked itself within massive concrete barriers, losing this primal adaptability and psychological flexibility.
1. Milankovitch Cycles and the Grand Cosmic Rhythm
As astrophysics and geology attest, Earth’s climate is driven by “Milankovitch cycles”—created by the tilt of the planet’s axis, axial precession, and the eccentricity of its orbit around the sun. In the face of this immense astrophysical mechanism that arrives in cycles of tens of thousands of years, ice ages and interglacial periods alternate, completely resetting the surface environment of our planet regardless of human economic activity. No matter how desperately humanity attempts to control tomorrow’s weather through advanced AI modeling and big data analysis, we are but a microscopic variable before this grand cosmic rhythm. Therefore, the real problem facing humanity today is not merely that the planet is being ruined, but rather that the assets of human civilization are far too rigidly fixed in contrast to the ever-fluctuating nature driven by cosmic cycles. Amidst the cyclic rise and fall of sea levels, it is precisely because our most expensive real estate and megacities are anchored to the coastlines that this natural shift is perceived as a colossal disaster. This perfectly mirrors the principles of astrology: when the massive transits of outer planets like Uranus or Pluto shake an individual’s unconscious, the more one resists change and clings to an outdated ego structure, the greater the internal catastrophe.
2. Infrastructure Shackles and the Greed of Human Politics
If we deduce the truth dispassionately, the essence of the issue is not a climate crisis, but rather a “crisis of civilizational infrastructure realignment”. Unlike the nomadic era, where habitats shifted flexibly in tune with nature’s cycles, modern capitalist civilization has shackled itself within artificial boundaries of borders and quadrillions of dollars in concrete assets. To compound this, human political greed and populism have hijacked the climate crisis as a pretext to control global supply chains and maximize national interests, severely distorting the true nature of the crisis. Certain nations and powers relentlessly calculate how to use the singular framework of “carbon emissions” as a weapon to stifle the growth of other countries and immortalize their own power. If a few human policies cannot alter the grand macro-cycles of the Earth, the only survival strategy left for humanity is to boldly dismantle fixed stereotypes and infrastructure, securing the adaptability to ride the shifting waves of our environment. It is time to abandon the arrogance of reducing grand natural providence to a political tool and prepare for an essential “reset” of survival infrastructure. This is exactly why the wisdom of ancient nomads—who knew that survival meant constant flow and movement—is most desperately needed by modern civilization.
3. Dismantling the Fixed Persona and Depth Psychology’s Adaptability
This terrifying rigidity afflicting the infrastructure on Earth’s surface bears a chilling resemblance to the psychological fixations modern individuals suffer daily. We bind ourselves to the shallow “Persona” of a flawless professional or a model citizen demanded by society, squandering immense mental energy just to maintain that rigid shell. Much like the massive coastal cities left helpless against climate shifts, the individual’s psychological structure has degraded into a fragile sandcastle, easily collapsing at the slightest external uncertainty. From the perspective of analytical psychology, true self-realization does not lie in clinging to a fixed self-image, but in maintaining the flexibility to constantly interact with the dynamic ocean of the unconscious and recreate oneself. We must humbly accept the cyclical changes of the grand cosmos and awaken the nomadic survival instincts sleeping deep within us. The intuition and insight to boldly discard outdated infrastructure and move in harmony with environmental shifts—this is the greatest survival compass left in our DNA by ancestors who endured extreme climates. Only those who tear down their psychological defense mechanisms and ride the currents of the unconscious will be able to fully withstand the transformations of this new era.
