The Cave: A Channel for Journeying toward Ego Development

This study offers a discussion of the symbolic meanings of caves for human beings, as represented in mythology and folklore as well as modern psychological concepts, especially the mother archetype. The cave’s associations with birth and rebirth are examined through a Jungian framework, and it is identified as a channel for the development of ego. The author uses her own life history as a case study, especially her struggle to become independent from her mother, leading to a highly personal analysis of the symbolism of caves.
