The Psychology of Pinocchio | EP 254

In celebration of part 4/4 of "The Adventures of Pinocchio and Free Speech" compilation series (available in audio-only format on the JBP Podcast), we decided to revisit a classic lecture from Dr. Peterson's 2015 Maps of Meaning series discussing the 1940 Disney classic Pinocchio.

    My father's name was Jacob and I was given a name from his successful Jewish friend. In those letters is hidden my real name. Abel. The first of El. I was circumcised for technical reasons , but I'm not a Jew, according to rabbis. The last transfiguration was almost two years ago now. It took me around 20 minutes to achieve that little task so don't take it to heart. Lions don't. What do I do now? Do you think I need to get to Israel or what? Then wait. Or send someone to get me. Whatever. I have more important things to do till then. I'm coming on an electric donkey and clouds of internet. No one knows the day and the hour but the One who Sits on the Throne. All I can give you is the possible deadline. That is the year 2062. But my days are shorter on Earth. If I die before getting to Israel all hell is going to break lose on my people and the rest of the world literally. Believe me, there is nothing more I would like to do, but to end this game of cat and mouse and join the Eternal One. Do you want that? Then get practical and do something. Whatever you decide to do, remember, time is not important, but is of the essence. So is my body. And blood. I suffered 40 years for you and I will suffer till my last breath, but now you can do something for me. Come and get me. Or wait. Your call. So answer it. Or don't.. There's always a snooze option. Why do I have to do everything by my self...rhetorical question.

    most authors would say that the story writes itself when you are in a trance-like state. Their ideas are products of their personal and collective unconscious. So when the authors write books, they unknowingly store in them a vast amount of unconscious content that can be explored from a Jungian perspective. Innumerable associations can be made just like how Peterson brilliantly does here.

    Jordan Peterson is worthy of respect on MANY levels, and I sincerely enjoy hearing his perspectives.. Heading the list among his skill sets In my HUMBLE opinion, is his surprisingly smooth talent of misdirection. Next I bow to the mans ability to weave together patches of assumptive knowledge with very inventive scraps of analogs and similes that sometimes feel a little ponderous, but still convincing.. BUT that being said, in the end I agree wholeheartedly with the man's sincerity and conviction..Peace.

    Dr. Peterson, this lit a fire in me. I paused half way through, and watched Pinnochio for the first time since I was too young to remember it. I recognized sagas in my life that match the three trials - including ESPECIALLY rescuing my Father from the whale, which I believe now I quite literally have. Without belaboring the point, at 35 I finally suddenly recognized myself as someone worthy of the future. There is no other way to describe it than that all at once i was stunned and grateful and terrified and exalting all at the same time. I cannot express my gratitude in this forum, but I hope at some point in the future I will have the opportunity.

    Dr. Peterson, I just wanted to tell you that while we don't always agree on certain issues I've realized you are not the big bad wolf the media tries to portray you as. When I took the time to listen to you I realized I agree with you far more times than I disagree. I feel that you take great care with working out your full opinion on things before speaking, and are quite a caring person. You've had a profound effect on me. I grew up in a single-parent home with a father in and out of jail, prison, or rehab. You've changed how I think about things and I have realized I can do things, just one thing at a time to slowly better my life. I have even found myself at 35 crying because of some of the things you have said. I was very depressed after I was hit by an unlicensed driver while I was crossing the crosswalk. I was told before emergency back surgery I was either going to die or never walk again, and while I am alive, I was in a wheelchair and remained in one until I started believing my life was still worth living, and I wasn't going to give up and after a lot of hard work I can walk with a cane today. And I had given up before I heard you talk about making your bed. Now I'm taking the time to make my bed, and clean my room every day. I had stopped doing that and it bugged me. Just doing that has improved my life in ways only a year ago I thought were impossible because making my bed lead me to realize I can help myself if I work hard and change one thing at a time. It lead me to try physical therapy again with a different therapist who didn't tell me I won't walk again, and it paid off. Thank you so much. I will never judge someone without hearing them out again because they may say something that changes my life like you did. Edit: I'm sure you don't have time to read youtube comments, but I hope you see this long rambling comment because I don't know if there's a better way to thank you. I needed to hear a lot of the things you have written about and said, I thought my life was over when I broke my back in the car accident and as I mentioned was told I wouldn't walk again. I now know I was wrong, the doctors were wrong, and it started with making my bed and changing what I thought I could change and ended up changing what I was told I couldn't. Thank you again so very much. You gave me hope again.

    Personally at now 59 years old I have passed several stages or levels that helped me to became an adult, a man and it has been difficult and I suffered a lot because my dysfunctional family ( 8 th of a 9 children family) had left me with many things to repair and mostly no tool or know how to resolve them. To me, PERSEVERANCE has bee to most effective tool I used. To summarize my story I became less teenager at 33 when I had my first of my two boys. I DIG inside me to become conscious of things that I were not conscious because it’s difficult to fix something you don’t know you have or that you refuse to see. All this story use to make me think to a wonderful Prayer, sorry for the bad translation , it Reminds me of the Serenity Prayer .; My God give me the Serenity to accept the things that I cannot change. The Courage to change the things that I can and The Wisdom to know the difference. The more you pay attention to your real self, there would be more subtle things that will appear so you will have to accept the like it is or try to change it. Have a good walk on the path.😊

    I have made that journey to the underworld several times, have fallen apart many times and been reborn again. recognizing that someone is pulling the strings with me and considering if that was where I wanted to go and then untangling myself from those ropes and starting over. I know where the demons haunt and why. yes, developing autonomy is kind of taboo for them. I played roles, was seduced and see how evil this world can be. much deeper than other people. the pain in it is so deep that for a long period of time and now sometimes still, I wake up and my face and neck are soaked from crying. I have experienced many levels of chaos when all I wanted was to put things in order. back home. from home to home. everything was chaos. the grasshopper was always with me. that has been my salvation, for I come from dark places of my youth. I do have an explanation for J.C. He is there for everyone who pays close attention. Trauma has made me spiritual. I have a long list of traumas. it's like i subscribed to it. Given the time we live in, I assume that I still have a few things to learn and that I will go back to the abyss to come back reborn. I have been in dialogue with my consciousness since about age seven with periods of deep fall to high spiritual consciousness and very clear experiences. I was a low-skilled good-hearted obedient slave who always knew I had to free myself from that. I also returned home many times and found nothing. That is still an issue for me. I've been so desperate at some that God even sent me an angel to fish me back in. My intuition always directs me to God. Yet sometimes a demon manages to get me. For example, if I am sick or through people around me. I see a lot. On different levels. As a low-skilled person, I learned to pay attention. Like some kind of animal instinct. That is it. The same goes for the message that is passed to me. Gepetto trapped in the great whale of limbo is true for many. They linger at a low level of consciousness. This is largely due to the way they are directed in how they should view their history. Many people are only looking for fish. They are low in skills and only want to own. They have more or less lost their animal spiritual intuition. It feels so lonely to me. I think it's lonely for everyone. My first spiritual experience was also my fifth. I was visited by a dragon. He wanted something with my heart and I assure you he didn't get it. I have burned a number of ships in the meantime.

    Good thoughts. I love art and storytelling. I believe that fiction is the primary way humans evolve at this point, considering how we are no longer in a survival situation as a species. Now we survive bu preserving ourselves in values we teach our children, and the best way to teach is through stories. Well, maybe it is not the best way to teach, but even Jesus taught through parables, so I think there is a good argument for that. What I am trying to get at is, thank you for the insight into this old and frankly confusing story. The way you taught made it truly profound in ways I haven't considered before.

    Psychological analysis helps people understand why and how their minds work. You can't simply analyze a movie and say there, that's what it was, because the movie will not change its consciousness from the analysis. He could analyze the writer of the story or the director or producer, but not the movie itself. The movie is not conscious. If anything, a person's analysis of a movie is more an analysis of their mind in reaction to the movie. So here, Dr. Peterson is giving us an analysis of his psychology in response to the movie. It's like analyzing Rorschach inkblot.

    The entire story is really only about the man, Geppeto...who creates a alter ego or outward man represented by Pinocchio. It's like Geppeto is the inward man or soul, and Pinnocchio is the outward man. This is why Geppeto keeps becoming in a captivity because as he is led by selfishness and unrighteousness, he falls into spiritual bondage. The fairies and cricket various avenues of God working within the man to bring him to completeness (perfection as Jesus teaches) where his outside and inside are in harmony. Once Pinocchio/outward man started seeking the inward man/Geppeto he started that path that Jesus teaches us that leads to completeness (as we do His teachings and believe as He believes this outward and inward become harmonized). At the end of the story Pinnocio is completed as a clean minded external spiritual being...Geppeto and Pinocchio being the two parts of a complete spiritual human. It all makes more sense when you take Jesus' yoke to learn from Him and obey Him, believing as He believes. You actually go through this entire image and process that was laid out by the writer of Pinocchio.

    The story of Pinocchio (written by Freemason Carlo Collodi) is also a Masonic Enlightenment allegory about a boy called "Pine Eye" ("pin occhio" in Italian). The Santa Claus story is also a Masonic/occult allegory of a divine spirit descending through the "chimney" or claustrum (hence the name Claus) to deliver the gifts of enlightenment under the "pine tree", or pineal gland. The biblical story of Jacob wrestling with an angel on the island of Penuel/Pniel (pineal gland) is also about spiritual Enlightenment, and Jacob's Ladder represents the human spine and its 33 parts are reflected in the Masonic reverence of the number 33.

    DR. P… Like you, I’m very good at seeing and interpreting symbolism. Actually, I’m rather exceptional at it. But we’re also both highly adept in applying philosophy and teaching. However, I think you’re the best that I’ve encountered. I’m likewise drawn to the lessons taught through successes and failures of human behavior, historically. The twentieth century provides a surplus of both and I admit to having been drawn to the atrocities, and can relate to the deep emotional impact they evoke, but examining the past 8,000 years of Western Civilization has furthered my understanding and continues to present new questions. As I learn, it’s increasingly revealed how little I’ll ever know …or of which I’ll ever become aware. It’s so humbling. Ty for contributing to the search for truth. You’ve been a facilitator and have voluntarily taken on your burden. I’m satisfied when I observe you reacting emotionally about the horrors of the past, the blessings of the present and to the outpouring of appreciation others have shown for the help your work has been to their lives. Each of these, in my opinion, are good reasons for being overwhelmed by emotion. My personality is very similar in that regard. This might seem a long comment, but I’ve watched over 200 hours of lectures, speeches and interviews which you’ve provided. 🇺🇸🇨🇦🫵🏻🙏🏻

    @@Doctor.T.46 I am happy to. The quote is from Augustine’s “Confessions”: Si nemo ex me quaerat, scio; si quaerenti explicari velim, nescio. (Conf. XI, 14.) I mentioned it because at 5:48 in the video JP says “you know why but you can't say why you know or what it is that you know” and then references Jungian archetypes. This is interesting because Carl Jung (born 1875) was a contemporary of Oswald Spengler (born 1880) and they have interesting parallels. OS also has the same ambition as JP did in Maps of Meaning “I am writing my book in an attempt to explain the psychological significance of history-to explain the meaning of history.” OS wrote “The Decline of the West” and in the Preface to the Revised Edition he says: “And now, finally, I feel urged to name once more those to whom I owe practically everything: Goethe and Nietzsche. Goethe gave me method, Nietzsche the questioning faculty - and if I were asked to find a formula for my relation to the latter I should say that I had made of his “outlook” (Ausblick) an “overlook” (Überblick).” In Maps of Meaning JP says: “Jung's ideas are not primarily Freudian … It is much more accurate to view him as an intellectual descendant of Goethe and Nietzsche-influenced in his development, to be sure, by the idea of the unconscious-than as a Freudian ‘disciple.’ Jung in fact spent much of his life answering, and attempting to answer, Nietzsche's questions about morality.” Carl Jung gave us the idea of “Synchronicity” which is, in some sense, the opposite of causality in the psychological realm. Spengler set the idea of “Destiny” as the opposite of the principal of causality in the historical realm. In “The Decline of the West” OS quotes that passage twice saying “In the older philosophy I have found one, and only one, profound and reverent presentation of Time; it is in Augustine [the quote],” and then later: “… is something that is not to be explained by any why and wherefore and yet is of inward necessity. And thus the phrase that Augustine in a deep moment used of Time is valid also of destiny [the quote]” I hope this explains why I mentioned the quote.

    @@Doctor.T.46 JP often opposes Isaac Newton (lifeless mechanics) with Charles Darwin (living adaptation). This fundamental dichotomy is basically what OS has in mind as well. He says: "The means whereby to identify dead forms is Mathematical Law. The means whereby to understand living forms is Analogy. By these means we are enabled to distinguish polarity and periodicity in the world." Later on he says "I would not have one single word changed in this: 'The Godhead is effective in the living and not in the dead, in the becoming and the changing, not in the become and the set fast; and therefore, similarly, the reason (Vernunft) is concerned only to strive towards the divine through the becoming and the living, and the understanding (Verstand) only to make use of the become and the set fast' (to Eckermann). This sentence comprises my entire philosophy." He was quoting Goethe. I would add (since JP said he wanted to explain the meaning of history) that OS says of this: "All effectual history begins with the primary classes, nobility and priesthood, forming themselves and elevating themselves above the peasantry as such. The opposition of greater and lesser nobility, between king and vassal, between worldly and spiritual power, is the basic form of all primitive politics, Homeric, Chinese, or Gothic, until with the coming of the City, the burgher, the Tiers État history changes its style. But it is exclusively in these classes as such, in their class consciousness, that the whole meaning of history inheres. The peasant is historyless." And later on he says: "But when Jesus was taken before Pilate, then the world of facts and the world of truths were face to face in immediate and implacable hostility. It is a scene appallingly distinct and overwhelming in its symbolism, such as the world’s history had never before and has never since looked at. The discord that lies at the root of all mobile life from its beginning, in virtue of its very being, of its having both existence and awareness, took here the highest form that can possibly be conceived of human tragedy. In the famous question of the Roman Procurator: “What is truth?” - the one word that is race pure in the whole Greek Testament - lies the entire meaning of history, the exclusive validity of the deed, the prestige of the State and war and blood, the all powerfulness of success and the pride of eminent fitness."
