The Magician Archetype: Rediscovering The Sacred Beyond the Mundane

The Magician is the third Jungian masculine archetype in this series. The Magician has a deep curiosity for everything in life — he is willing to put in the effort to learn the secret knowledge and teach it to the others. He uncovers things that are not immediately obvious, understands how they work and applies that knowledge to creating something new. So, in relation to The Warrior, for example, The Magician is the creative force and the thinker who drives the actions of The Warrior.

In this episode, we talk about the full expression of The Magician archetype, the well-known magician characters from popular fiction, as well as the examples of magicians in our culture and science. We also talk about its shadow versions, and how to recognize them in business or within your community.

"The magician archetype has a built in necessity to elevate other people up to the same level that he is at." - @MikeGilliland (https://goo.gl/FRFeV2)

"Culture is a consensus reality that everybody agrees on, it's an imagined order so that a large group of people can cooperate. But culture is not immovable." - @EuvieIvanova (https://goo.gl/XGxDT3)
