Forest-symbolism is complex, but is connected at all levels with the symbolism of the female principle of the Great Mother. The forest is the palace where vegetable life thrives and luxuriates, free from any control of cultivation. And since its foliage obscures the light of the sun, it is therefore regarded as opposed to the sun’s power and as a symbol of the earth. In Druid mythology, the forest was given to the sun in marriage (49). Since the female principle is identified with the unconscious in Man, it follows that the forest is also of symbol of the unconscious. It is for this reason that Jung maintains that the sylvan terrors that figure so prominently in children’s tales symbolize the perilous aspects of the unconscious, that is, its tendency to devour or obscure the reason…the forest harbours all kinds of dangers and demons, enemies and diseases (60).”[3]]…
