>"The Maternal Phallus vs Name-of-the-Father — The phallus of the matron represents belief as a whole, the unknown and that which one wishes to exist. It also may represent the encouragement derived thereof, that derived from the unlimited possibility sourced in belief. Against the registers of trauma one may experience in seeking their pleasure, the the name of the father may actually represent cruel, frustrating resignation, at reality or the appearance thereof when confronted with being consigned to the limitations of the Oedipus complex. (Or, more clearly: Hope in the mother's phallus is one’s belief in the breadth of the possibilities open to them for pursuit, for delivery into reality, while the name of the father is how one’s perception of them is narrowed considerably through anger and fear of social taboo and self-limitation, such as through incest, a lack of power and inability to achieve one's sexual satisfaction. Or simply how our mental filters keep us blind to what’s right under our noses… "Name of the father is how we all walk through life with our eyes half-lidded.) The pair also seem to represent the often-interwoven poles of positive vs negative emotion, attraction vs revulsion, love and reproduction vs familial strife, the faith to wait for a better option vs the conviction and resignation to do what’s hard and necessary. When one allows the Imaginary register to break character with the subjects role as the fundamental signifier, and thus inviting the transference of these instincts through phallic ordinance, he not only encouraged others to quell their despair or anger , removing the symptoms of the neurotic –– but also invited people to discard their resignation and belief in the overall inevitability of the triumph of paternal omnipotence."

>"And when inviting this resignation through the Name of the Father, for example, the subject may exhibit signs of machoism/sadism (Within the reasons of the Phallic Jouissance to allow one's own registers to co-exist with these fantasies) in the imaginary spectrum of paternal resignation and bow before the name of the father, or convinced the likes of the subject was intentionally murdering others, such as the parent preventing their desires from being archived and uniting with the maternal phallus, and thus killing her was the “only way”! (Shrinking the possibilities reachable through her desires, the desires of the other, to those of destruction, at the final moment of the big Other and symbolic "fathers" otherness) Both of these aspects are similar in their purvey over the perception of possibility and choices, and the inspiration or resignation derived from one’s interpretation thereof, which itself can extend or contract what one can achieve, allowing the analyst to release the subject from their neurosis in the long term."
