A trickster defrauds or cons us in a cunning way. We have certainly noticed in our own lives how persons and events keep coming along whose tricks help depose our ego’s arrogance, to strip us of our imaginary entitlements, to disrupt our best laid schemes. These are visits of the archetypal trickster, the ego demolitions expert who helps us become more realistic about our psychological limitations and ultimately our spiritual limitlessness. He leads us to border crossings where we are tricked into finding our own wholeness.
