Part 3 : A Hidden Archetype on Screen – The Shining

Hi everyone,

This is Part 3 of my symbolic video series (59 sec each), where I explore how archetypes from the Tarot’s Major Arcana can be traced in the cinematic language of iconic films.

In this episode, I focus exclusively on The Shining, proposing that the entire film can be read as a visual and psychological expression of a single archetype: The High Priestess.

She’s not a character, but a presence — embodied in silence, symmetry, intuition, and what remains unsaid.

The music in the video comes from my original album dedicated to the 22 Major Arcana.

I’d love to hear how directors here work with invisible structure, symbolic logic, or hidden figures in their visual storytelling.
