Digital Jung Podcast: S3, Ep. 3: In this episode I explore the symbolism of “one’s true name” and the challenges that we meet in learning how to hear it.
Thank you! I'm happy that it's resonating. The fantasy novel that MacDonald is best known for is 'Phantastes.' He also wrote what might be called fairy tales, such as The Golden Key, as well as his more religious writings, like the Unspoken Sermons that I used in the episode.
Thanks for the reference - I will definitely check that out, I’ve been enjoying a lot of earlier Christian mysticism this year - cloud of unknowing, way of the pilgrim etc. but nothing quite as recent as MacDonald.
I hadn’t come across MacDonald before - what a great insight and interpretation. Also loved the tie back to
Odysseus in this episode. A lovely thread starting to emerge through this season - getting a lot from it.
