In Scotland in the 16th century it was a derogatory term for a traveling musician. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"\u003cb\u003eFlute Dream\u003c\/b\u003e\" is a short fairy tale written by \u003cb\u003eHermann Hesse\u003c\/b\u003e in March 1914, when he was about to turn thirty seven. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The story, which was titled \"\u003cb\u003eFl tentraum\u003c\/b\u003e\" in German, deals with the subconscious dream world and is based on two of \u003cb\u003eCarl Jung\u003c\/b\u003e's shadow archetypes, the \"Impotent Lover\" and the \"Weakling King\". \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In Jungian psychology, the poet is one of the main manifestations of the \"Lover\" archetype. The \"Lover\" archetype is usually the first that develops in a man. It is the archetype of emotion, feeling, idealism, sensuality and of opening to the world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The Lover feels vigorously alive and is totally connected to those around him and to the world at large. He enjoys good food and drink, beautiful art, gorgeous women and uses all his senses, touching, tasting, smelling, hearing, and seeing, to enjoy life's pleasures. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The Greek god Dionysus, the god of wine, art, passion, and sex is perhaps the best example. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The \"Impotent Lover\" shadow arises when a man is out of touch with the Lover archetype in its fullness or feels shame when he indulges himself in life's pleasures. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e While the Lover in his fullness sees the world in vivid colors and textures, the Impotent Lover only sees gray. A man dogged by the impotent lover archetype feels depressed, flat, and dead inside. Nothing brings him joy, he has no passion for life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The \"King\" archetype is totally centered and functions as an intermediary between man and god, or heaven and earth. He serves as both the geographic and the spiritual center of his realm. All existence radiates from the King archetype. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e When a man lives the King archetype in its fullness, he feels confidence, purpose and a sense of well-being that gives him a supreme sense of balance and a centering power within himself. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e He's the rock in crisis and acts rather than reacts. Even when the world around him becomes chaotic, he remains cool, calm, and collected. A man fully engaged with positive King energy is completely present as a man. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The \"Weakling King\" shadow is passive. Instead of taking control of his life and making decisions in a resolute fashion, a man possessed by the Weakling shadow abdicates his throne to others. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This edition also contains \"\u003cb\u003eThe Poet\u003c\/b\u003e\", which depicts a variation on the true \"Lover\" archetype where the love of poetry was the main lover's desire and the poet manages to suck the marrow out of life without chocking on the bone.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.07 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 14, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47245951664377,"sku":"9781508573296","price":13.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/TnhvUHZ0UWZEdUo1bFVIMXFwNFdIdz09.webp?v=1768610375","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/flute-dream-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
