[The Apprentice]

Jung was no different to all the thinkers before him, here is a snippet from the link aforementioned.

Take the number four, for example. The Native Americans believe that there are four winds and four directions.
Along a similar line, the Ancient Greeks believed that there were four elements. In Christianity, four is the number of creation (i.e. on the fourth day of the week God finished creating the material universe).

As we can see, four has a very similar meaning across three completely different time periods and cultures.


What all nations had/have in common is the four seasons, first it was animal signs/also known as Totemism where the Native indians worshipped their local staple food source like Bison.

In the Hebrew religion there is also fours and sevens also in Masonic parlance,

A poem which explains the syncronisity of global parlance

Father of all in every age
In every climb adored
By Saint by Savage or by Sage
Ioa Bull or Lord.

All of these have one common denominator

Nature and her seasons.

Then the animal mythology was slowly replaced by human figures and the rest is the biblical mess we are all in today with thousands of different memes on the theme original.
