The Octarine Tree

In this episode we explore the symbolic, mythopoetic and metaphysical implications of the global Wildman phenomena.

Show Notes

Of all the myths and stories we find shared ubiquitously around the globe one of the most persistent and captivating is that of hairy, wild, human-like creatures living in the wilderness.

How are they represented in different cultures? Are they merely myth or is there a physical reality to them? And if so, why the disparaging gap between the bountiful anecdotal evidence and meagre physical?

In this talk we discuss the elusive creatures and the surrounding phenomena from a historical, Jungian, mythological, paleo-anthropological, and even modern forensic perspective  as to what may lie behind this cross cultural folklore and unrelenting sightings.
