Discover how the Grail Hallows connect to the four suits of tarot and Jung’s cognitive functions
Drawing upon the scholarship of The Grail Legend by Emma Jung and Marie Louise von Franz, this class explores the four Grail Hallows (the items presented to Perceval during his visit to the Fisher King’s castle). Each item represents key archetypal forces that structure reality and develop consciousness within the heroic-fool. To deepen the archetypal investigation and practical application, the class connects the hallows to the four Minor Arcana suits of the tarot and the four functions of consciousness within Jung’s framework of personality typology.
Topics include:
The scholarship of Emma Jung and Marie Louise von Franz
Perceval and the archetype of the Fool
The development of consciousness and quaternities
The archetypal and psychological themes of the Grail Hallows (4 tarot suits and 4 Jungian cognitive functions)
