I was writing something about Marian visions and wanted to make the point about Jung and the Assumption of Mary, but couldn't recall which of Jung's book I'd read it in. So I googled it and somehow landed in your post. The archetypal character of these visions seem, as you suggest,about the hypermasculinity of the Abrahamic religions. By the way, the Lady is in the Koran more than in the Christian bible. Some years ago I got to know an American who witnessed the Mary apparitions in Zeitun. An Amazing story. I met a priest on a plane once who came back from Medjugorge and swore his rosary beads changed color.

The fact is, "there's something about Mary," and what I am discovering in the more progressive parts of the Episcopal church, we are looking to her more as a guide for maneuvering this archetype. We didn't quite push her away as far as the Protestants on the European continent, but we sort of kept her around, not knowing what to do with her. As we start understanding more of the archetype, I think we will continue to evolve to a place with her differently. Not quite the RC version, but perhaps simultaneously a new and an old place.<br /><br />I know for me, it is Mary as Theotokos that connects most strongly with me.

I know very little about Catholicism and probably less about Jung, but I did read a fascinating book about mythology by Joseph Campbell that was fascinating.<br />Thanks for dropping by my blog today. <br />Also, thanks for the tip about the place where Medjugorje saw the vision. Do you know if 280 Living did a story on that?Rick Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01005727239466916086noreply@blogger.com
