common symbolic themes that live in our collective subconcious... or something like that. i'm sure one of the smart people will show up and explain it.

Jung was a big part of adolf hitler's regime, we should remember that.

hmmm, i suppose u have got a point there, that would be like someone banning screwdrivers because somebody got stabbed with one, and of course its the screwdriver's fault.
Freidrick Nietzche was another one, the father of modern psychology - Jung would be nothing without him.

You left out the word "some". With at least 50 excursions under my belt and not one single snake, reptile or dragon, these archetypes may not be as common as you think, unless I just am not doing a "heroic" enough dose!

The proof is in the pudding.

fair enough - to tell u the truth I havent seen any reptillian visions, but the fact is that its still an important symbol, the biblical connection. I just wondered whether anyone has any philosophical knowledge of the origins?

Perhaps is moreso peoples obsession with the bible,the serpent = satan archetype.In western society at least.Or you could just be a bunch of weirdos obsessed with phallic images.Latent,oh nevermind.

that was my thought, tree of knowledge forbidden fruit ect. these symbols have become ingrained in our cultural consciousness.
Fu$k u man, i hope ur not saying what i think youre saying ;-> don't you think that the mushroom is a bit of a phallic symbol - i bet u like munching on a nice big mushroom, oh matron!

I think that would go along with the "Spit or Swallow?" thread about LSD in the Other Drugs forum.Teehee.By the way anyone who gets seriously offended by my last comment,well they most likely fit that category.

I never see reptillian imagery that I can recall.I did once see a mushroom with 6 tits on 2ct2.

What about MJK's tatoo?
some reptiles change skin, which can represent rebirth...
Watch Tool's stinkfist video.
Some shamans used lizards and other reptiles on their rituals.
Escher's reptiles are cool:
