S2E30 - Jung’s Greatest Pupil - Neumann’s Uroboros
from The Two Tongues Podcast · host twotonguespodcast
In this episode we examine the opening chapter of Erich Neumann's great book The Origin and History of Consciousness...the book that Jung said he'd wished he'd written. We cover the stories we tell about the birth of the cosmos--our creation myths--and learn how they are really covert stories about the birth of consciousness. These stories center around the symbol of the Uroboros, the snake eating its own tail, the union of opposites. Neumann helps us to make sense of this and for that we say, thank you. Enjoy :)
