The Archetype of the Magician - Philosophy John Granrose

Magicians of all kinds combine our natural human interest in power with our natural human interest in mystery. The theme of the book is to address three questions: What does the magician symbolize in human life? What are the aspects of the archetypal image of the magician? What is the archetype of the magician? These are questions relating to understanding one's psyche through magical awareness. This book is intended for all who want to have a more nuanced view of the archetype of the magician from a Jungian perspective, and as we encounter this term in history, our shared linguistic competence, and collective memory.
