C. G. Jung relates the temenos to the spellbinding or magic - TopicsExpress



          

C. G. Jung relates the temenos to the spellbinding or magic circle, which acts as a square space or safe spot where mental work can take place. This temenos resembles among others a symmetrical rose garden with a fountain in the middle (the squared circle) in which an encounter with the unconscious can be had and where these unconscious contents can safely be brought into the light of consciousness. In this manner one can meet ones own Shadow, Animus/Anima, Wise Old Wo/Man (Senex) and finally the Self, names that Jung gave to archetypal personifications of (unpersonal) unconscious contents which seem to span all cultures
