Jungian Ever After | Rumpelstiltskin Part 2: Trickster

Our 100th episode! It’s fitting that the 100th episode of the Jungianthology Podcast is with our most recent addition, Jungian Ever After. Please join our Holiday Giving Drive to support this free resource accessed by thousands of listeners worldwide. This second part of our Rumpelstiltskin coverage focuses on the Trickster archetype. We talk about places that Trickster emerges in pop culture before analyzing the ways in which both Rumpel and the miller’s daughter channel trickster energy. Part one’s story was read last month from Household Tales by Brothers Grimm. Adina also recommends: The Complete Grimm’s Fairy Tales (Pantheon Fairy Tale And Folklore Library).
