Part 3: The Hidden Archetype in The Shining
This is Part 3 of my short-form video series (59 sec each), where I explore how film can reflect the deeper structures of archetypal symbolism.
This time, I focus entirely on The Shining, and how the entire visual and narrative arc can be read as a hidden embodiment of The High Priestess — an archetype of silence, intuition, and concealed knowledge.
The music comes from my original album based on the 22 Major Arcana. Each track was composed to capture the emotional essence of a Tarot archetype — in this case, mystery and stillness.
