Juggling Bear, A Trickster Archetype

Updated: May 8




THE SYMBOLISM OF THE JUGGLER AND THE BEAR



Imagine the words in the Juggler image as a symbolic look at the psyche.


The words above the wizard-like cap on the "bear" image -- SYMBOLIZE THOUGHT.

The bear is part of "the juggling act" associated with thoughts in general. There is an inherent conflict imbedded in the juggler / bear archetype, as with all archetypes.


Thought is productive, while the opposite is also true-- thought is not productive. Thoughts are little more than "balls in the air" -- we see that juggling our thoughts can be more habitual than productive and positive.
