In this week’s episode we discuss the gnostic and occult themes found throughout the 90s blockbuster classic; The Truman Show. In the 25 years since the film’s theatrical release, The Truman Show has continued to draw new interest and inspired numerous fans to dig through its seemingly never ending list of clever details and hidden content. While much has been said about the film over the years we focus on the occult symbolism and religious motifs which make the Truman Show perhaps the best gnostic themed film ever made. We begin by unraveling the etymology of character names and quickly move into the gnostic, Kabbalistic and Tarot symbolism hiding in plain sight. We discuss Adam Kadmon, The Scarlet Woman and of course The Black Iron Prison. In the extended show we go even deeper into the machinery of Truman’s world and find ourselves treading Tarot paths on the Moon, exploring the Canis Major, the lunar-womb-Matrix and how Truman uses the principles of Hermetic Magick to Cross the Abyss, confront God himself and complete The Great Work. Fair warning: we go pretty heavy on the Gnostic, Tarot and Kabbalistic symbolism in this episode. We highly suggest listening to our previous episode if you’d like a crash course on gnosticism, our WTF is Kabbalah episode for that and googling a diagram of the Tree of Life may be helpful in one or two instances. Thank you and enjoy the show!
