Ouroboros: The Endless Loop of Change


Listen Later

From ancient tombs to modern science, the Ouroboros has long symbolized eternal renewal and the unity of opposites. In this episode, we trace its journey from Egyptian protections of Ra through Gnosticism and alchemy, into Jungian psychology, cybernetics, and even a living lizard named Ouroboros cataphractus. We explore how a snake eating its tail became a lens for self-reference, transformation, and wholeness—and we invite listeners to spot the self-renewing cycles in their own lives.
