"You complete me!" Not really. As a follow up to the last episode on the Shadow, I'm diving into the image of the Magical Other. Let's talk about projections and fantasies in intimate, long-term relationships. And how to grow up. This episode is in my series Stuff that Helps!, where I popularize stuff I've found helpful. This week will be about the work of James Hollis, a Jungian Analyst and author who coined the phrase the Magical Other. According to Hollis the fantasy of the Magical Other is one of the chief sources of suffering in long-term relationships, not to mention a kind of false god in the Western world. Enjoy!
