Philosopher, Walter A. Shelburne wrote a book entitled Mythos and Logos in the Thought of Carl Jung. Without a doubt, the image that stands out is that of the magician. Shelburne describes this archetype as a humble personality capable of accepting that they don’t know everything. They accept that authentic wisdom involves continuous learning.
