" psychology has become reduced to "a trivialized, banal, egocentric pursuit, rather than an exploration of the mysteries of human nature," says.  (Hillman)  One of the greatest of these mysteries, in Hillman's view, is the question of character and destiny. In his bestseller The Soul's Code, he proposes that our calling in life is inborn and that it's our mission in life to realize its imperatives. He calls it the "acorn theory," the idea that our lives are formed by a particular image, just as the oak's destiny is contained in the tiny acorn."  by Scott London.  An interview with Hillman.
