Trees for Life - Mythology and Folklore of the Hazel
The Celts equated hazelnuts with concentrated wisdom and poetic inspiration, as is suggested by the similarity between the Gaelic word for these nuts, cno, and the word for wisdom, cnocach. There are several variations on an ancient tale that nine hazel trees grew around a sacred pool, dropping nuts into the water to be eaten by some salmon (a fish revered by Druids) which thereby absorbed the wisdom.
Carl Gustav Jung developed an understanding of archetypes as being "ancient or archaic images that derive from the collective unconscious ". [ 1 ] These are different from instincts , as Jung understood instincts as being "an unconscious physical impulse toward actions and the archetype as the psychic counterpart". [ 2 ] There are many different archetypes and Jung has stated they are limitless, but they have been simplified; examples include the persona, the shadow, the anima, the animus, the great mother, the wise old man, the hero, and the self. [ 2 ] The great mother, the wise old man, and the hero tend to be considered add-ons from the basic set, because they are not included in Jung’s map of the soul along with the others.
