- The Singing Soaring Lark - Jungian Fairytale AnalysisSchool of Self Potential, NewtownA$25.00
"The Singing Soaring Lark" is a classic and enchanting fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm. The story revolves around a young princess who faces adversity and undergoes a remarkable journey of personal growth.
The tale begins with a beautiful princess who, due to her arrogance and vanity, is transformed into a lark by a wicked witch. The princess's transformation forces her into a life of hardship and solitude, but it also serves as a test of her inner character.
As a lark, she embarks on a series of adventures, soaring high in the sky, and visiting various places. Throughout her travels, she encounters different challenges and meets a variety of characters, each with their own unique stories and lessons to impart. These encounters help her gain a deeper understanding of herself and the world around her.
Despite her predicament, the lark remains kind-hearted and compassionate. Her beautiful singing voice, reminiscent of her former self, touches the hearts of those she encounters, spreading happiness and hope wherever she goes. Her kindness eventually leads her to a prince who recognises her true nature and falls in love with her singing.
The prince's love and a series of selfless acts lead to the lark's transformation back into her human form. The story concludes with a joyous and heartwarming reunion between the princess and her prince.
Fairytale Series
Jung's student and collaborator, Marie Lou von Franz, describes fairytales as the deepest source of psychological insights, free from most cultural overlays. In this series, we explore the wisdom of the fairytales through a reading of the tale, psychological analysis and relating the tale to our personal lives.
