Thus the Trickster has been called a speculum mentis: a mirror into the mind. We are the Trickster and when we describe Trickster phenomena we are always describing aspects of ourselves. The Trickster operates largely outside conscious awareness but always from within the human mind. The countless Trickster tales describe how this process plays itself out in everyday life. When either the rational or irrational side dominates, self correcting forces come into play to restore some semblance of harmony between the two. According to the tenets of depth psychology, a balance between these two vectors of the psyche is required for optimal mental heath. This aspect of the mind is contrasted with the logical, analytical, and intellectual side that values order, precision, and control. In modern psychology 'Trickster' is often used to refer to a universal force or pattern within the mind - what Jung called an archetype - that represents the irrational, chaotic, and unpredictable side of human thought and behaviour. One of the most universal expressions of this point of view is the Trickster figure, which has appeared in the mythology and folklore of perhaps every culture on earth. They have accorded great respect for irrationality and foolishness in its many forms - play, humour, nonsense, light heartedness. In contrast, many cultures have recognised that an intellectual approach to life's problems can be carried to excess. Only an approach anchored in analysis and reason, we say, stands a chance of working. When we encounter clinical problems such as cancer, heart disease, or AIDS, our search for solutions begins with the assumption that we need more facts and information, which form the substrate upon which reason can operate. MOST physicians are trained to be thinkers, analysts, logicians. We should not try to deny this, but learn to accept it, says Larry Dossey MD. Therapy in all its forms can be confusingly capricious and unpredictable.
