pushing the envelope

Until I found out that H. was about Devo, i always thought it was about his Anima.
It is said that Carl Jung had a dream where he was walking with a young girl, supposedly his Anima when he came upon a dwarf, his shadow, that was guarding a gate(the gateway to his collective unconcious). In the dream, Jung and the shadow kill the young girl. So I thought this was about that dream. The blood being his Anima, telling him not to go. And the snake being the shadow, somewhat like the dwarf, telling him he could be like the young girl, dead, in metaphor, as in not entering that last dimension of his psyche. He wants to stay with the young girl, yet he can't have fear and never know what could have been.
