[5] Unicorn continued: “Jung, in his work on the relationships between psychology and alchemy, has studied a great many aspects of this fabulous animal, concluding that, broadly speaking, it has no one definite symbolic character but rather many different variants embracing singe-horned animals, both real and fabulous, such has the sword-fish or certain types of dragon…On the other hand, the alchemists made use of its ambivalent implications in order to symbolize Monstrum Hermaphroditum. The universality of this symbolic being, non-existent in nature, is indeed surprising ; it is, for instance, in the Vedas.” [DMT]
