Notes

In the distant past, organized religions typically operated as society’s primary symbol factories. Nowadays, the publishing industry, the music industry, and the film and entertainment industry all operate as symbol factories, reproducing and distributing archetypes.[3]

A symbol factory can produce Old Energy Archetypes, New Energy Archetypes, or a combination of the two.

Lightning Path Workbook Four contains a discussion of archetypes and symbol factories.

See "A Short Sociology of Archetypes" for a more advanced discussion of symbol factories.[4]
