The Wizard of Oz: The Meaning Of It All

[@vijant1395]

The Wizard of Oz is not just a children’s tale; it is a profound allegory laden with symbols that resonate with deep truths about the human condition, the search for self-realization, and the journey beyond the illusions of the world. At the heart of this allegory lies Toto, a seemingly simple and loyal dog, who plays the pivotal role of unveiling the truth by pulling back the curtain to expose the Wizard. Let us explore the symbolism of Toto and the main characters-Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Lion, and the Scarecrow-in the context of this great revelation. Toto: The Revealer of Illusion Toto represents intuition, discernment, and the purity of unconditioned awareness. While the other characters are captivated by the grandeur and intimidation of the Wizard's projected image, it is Toto who senses the falseness of the illusion. Toto’s small but courageous act of pulling back the curtain is symbolic of our inner knowing, the uncorrupted aspect of ourselves that instinctively seeks truth. He embodies the courage to question appearances, the curiosity to explore deeper, and the ability to expose the mechanisms behind deception. Toto reminds us that no matter how grand the illusion, it is often maintained by nothing more than a frail and ordinary truth hidden in plain sight. Dorothy: The Seeker of Home Dorothy symbolizes the soul’s longing for unity, for "home," which in a spiritual sense is the state of oneness with the divine source. Her journey through Oz represents the trials and tribulations of life, the separation we feel from our true essence, and the eventual realization that the power to return home has always been within us. Her ruby slippers, representing spiritual tools or innate abilities, remind us that the answers we seek externally are always within. Toto’s act of revelation aligns with Dorothy’s awakening-that the Wizard, an external authority, is powerless compared to the inner authority of the self. The Scarecrow: The Mind Seeking Wisdom The Scarecrow, who believes he lacks a brain, symbolizes the misunderstood and undervalued intellect. His journey illustrates that wisdom does not come solely from external validation or institutions but through experience, self-discovery, and the realization that true intelligence is already within us. Toto’s exposure of the Wizard affirms to the Scarecrow that his perceived inadequacies are part of the illusion designed to keep him doubting himself. The Scarecrow’s brilliance, already evident in his creative problem-solving throughout the journey, is a reminder that our minds are not empty but often clouded by self-doubt. The Tin Man: The Heart Seeking Love The Tin Man, who laments his lack of a heart, represents the emotional self, often hardened by life’s challenges and the fear of vulnerability. His rusted and immobile form symbolizes how emotional wounds and fears can paralyze our ability to connect. Yet, his actions throughout the journey reveal a deep capacity for compassion and love, proving that his heart was never absent. Toto’s revelation of the Wizard emphasizes that the Tin Man’s belief in his inadequacy is another falsehood, freeing him to embrace the love and sensitivity that were always within him. The Cowardly Lion: The Spirit Seeking Courage The Lion, who sees himself as a coward, embodies the soul’s struggle to find courage amidst fear. He represents the misunderstood nature of true courage, which is not the absence of fear but the ability to act despite it. Throughout the journey, the Lion demonstrates bravery in protecting his friends, showing that his courage was never missing. Toto’s unmasking of the Wizard affirms the lesson that courage comes not from external sources or affirmations but from within, in the willingness to confront the truth and act with integrity. The Wizard: The Illusion of Power The Wizard is the archetype of false authority, a projection of control that derives its strength from the fear and belief of those who follow it. He represents the societal systems, dogmas, and individuals that perpetuate illusions to maintain their power. Toto’s unveiling of the Wizard is a powerful act of dismantling these false systems, showing that what appears powerful and omnipotent is often fragile and built upon deception. The Wizard’s admission of his humanity underscores the profound truth that no external force can grant us what we already possess within ourselves. The Curtain: The Veil of Illusion The curtain itself is a potent symbol of the veils that obscure reality. It represents the false narratives, distractions, and fears that keep us from seeing the truth. Toto’s act of pulling it back mirrors the spiritual process of awakening-tearing down the barriers of illusion to reveal the simple, often mundane truth behind them. The Journey: Awakening to the Truth Ultimately, The Wizard of Oz is a tale of self-realization and empowerment. Each character’s perceived lack is revealed to be an illusion, and Toto’s role as the revealer reminds us that the path to truth begins with questioning appearances and trusting our inner knowing. The journey is not about acquiring something new but about reclaiming what was always within. The Lesson for Us All In our lives, Toto invites us to be courageous in pulling back the curtains of our own illusions, whether they are self-imposed fears, societal constructs, or external authorities that seek to dominate our sense of self. The Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Lion teach us that wisdom, love, and courage are inherent qualities, waiting to be rediscovered. Dorothy reminds us that "home" is not a distant place but the essence of who we are, accessible the moment we awaken to our true nature. Toto’s seemingly small act of defiance is a profound reminder: sometimes, the smallest among us, the simplest actions, and the quietest truths have the power to dismantle the grandest illusions. Let us all embody Toto’s spirit, pulling back the curtain in our own lives, and walking the path of truth with courage, wisdom, love, and unity.

Toto means “in total, all together; Latin in toto”. Notice how Toto was not scared of the Great Wizard’s theatrics, yet he was so small in size compared to the Wizard, no-one seemed to notice him. The smoke, flames and hologram images were designed to frighten people into doing as the Great Wizard of Oz commanded. Toto simply went over, looked behind the curtain saw it was a scam, and started barking until others paid attention to him and came to see what all the barking was about. It was just an ordinary person controlling the levers that created the illusions of the Great Wizard’s power and authority. The veil hiding the corporate legal fiction and its false courts was removed. The Wizards game was up. It’s too bad that people don’t realize just how loud a bark from a little dog is.

What an incredible analysis of this legendary film! This really covers the historical context of the film which I felt was overlooked in other reviews. The rise of fascism and the class disparity are subliminal in the film, but are consistently there nonetheless. The context of the poverty is quite powerful: the setup of Dorothy being an orphan in the Dust Bowl during the Great Depression is heart wrenching & you can see how that would fuel her imagination & desire to travel. I believe there to be some occult & alchemy symbolism within the story as well. Great video! Subscribed!

Dorothy lived in 1900, so the Great Depression was of no account.

[@osborn.illustration]

@@MaskedMan66 The film is different from the book, smartass. It was made late in the Great Depression and is inarguably meant to appeal to a Depression-era audience. People like my grandparents who raised me who loved the movie for those reasons. The time period context in which a movie is made has at least as much relevance as the time period in which the movie is set. The same has been said about "Gone with the Wind", which came out the same year in 1939. Both movies are very much about the Depression despite being set earlier.

Interesting interpretation. I came to a different one. It's about NPD within a family dynamic and societal one as well. The abuse leads to CPTSD in good little Dorthy. expressing itself in D.I.D. the Lion, scarecrow,and tinman. With Dorthy as the host personality. The tornado was the fracturing of her mind into multiple personalities. The house crashing down on one of the bad witch represented the real life act Dorthy committed. A death. the Wizard represents her father, The wicked witch of the west is an Aunt, mother, or older sibling in representation. the munchkins represent those in the world who see the truth since they watch it from a 3rd person point of view. they see the narcissist attack their victim, but stand aside and do nothing but sooth after the attack is over. flying monkeys are the beta personality types that become the army of the narcissistic leader. In the end, putting out the fire is what destroys the narcissist. putting out the fire the narcissist spreads.

[@MaskedMan66]

This is the REAL meaning of it all: "Folklore, legends, myths and fairy tales have followed childhood through the ages, for every healthy youngster has a wholesome and instinctive love for stories fantastic, marvelous and manifestly unreal. The winged fairies of Grimm and Andersen have brought more happiness to childish hearts than all other human creations. "Yet the old time fairy tale, having served for generations, may now be classed as 'historical' in the children’s library; for the time has come for a series of newer 'wonder tales' in which the stereotyped genie, dwarf and fairy are eliminated, together with all the horrible and blood-curdling incidents devised by their authors to point a fearsome moral to each tale. Modern education includes morality; therefore the modern child seeks only entertainment in its wonder tales and gladly dispenses with all disagreeable incident. "Having this thought in mind, the story of 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz' was written solely to please children of today. It aspires to being a modernized fairy tale, in which the wonderment and joy are retained and the heartaches and nightmares are left out. "L. Frank Baum Chicago, April, 1900"

[@poostin8771]

Fantastic perspective and insight on the source of inspiration for the film. Very true that the original source text's sequels as well most derivative works speak a lot on the points you mentioned, morality becomes introduced quickly throughout the later books in the series, with a heavy emphasis on innocence and coming to grips with the fact that wonderland cannot exist without the inherent duality between good and bad. However, as mentioned throughout the video, several factors were changed from the original source text when being translated to film. Victor Fleming intentionally removed, added and changed multiple scenes, perspectives and ideologies around in order to better suit the time at which the film was released in. Baum's vision was definitely altered and to an extent, diminished by the release of the film, which instantly and lastingly eclipsed the popularity of the original novel, particularly with the explicit references to the political climate at the time, which, ironically is shielded from the innocent due to it requiring analysis, as well as pre-existing knowledge of historical context to unveil, as if the evils of the world only come to those who seek knowledge of their events. "Obstacles make a better picture" -Victor Fleming, 1940, Bel Air CA

[@MaskedMan66]

@@poostin8771 Victor Fleming had nothing to do with the script, which was the result of twenty-odd minds, including those of Bert Lahr and Jack Haley, who added bits of their own dialogue as filming progressed. There were no explicit references to the political climate of 1938 and 1939 since no mention was even made of politics, and because of the fact that the story was set in 1900.

[@jburger84]

The Tin Man with no heart is an obvious reference to industrialization, while the Scarecrow with no brain appears to represent agriculture, and the Cowardly Lion seems to represent political leaders that are all talk and no action. In my mind, society (Dorothy) moves forward when all of these work towards a common goal using resources such as gold and silver (the yellow brick road and silver slippers) to aid them. Ultimately, Dorothy finds that happiness and fulfillment can be found within herself and her family rather than in the utopian Emerald City of Oz.

[@MaskedMan66]

@@jburger84 All that kak was invented by a college professor in the 1960's in order to make his boring classes interesting by appealing to pop culture. L. Frank Baum's reasons, which I already quoted, are clear. The Tin Woodman-- who, as anyone knows who knows the story, already has a heart-- had his origin was in Baum's love of tin toys. The Scarecrow-- who, as anyone knows who knows the story, already has a brain-- came from a recurring nightmare that Baum had in childhood. The Cowardly Lion-- who, as anyone knows who knows the story, already has courage-- was simply a walking paradox, which appealed to Baum. Baum wrote fourteen Oz books in all-- did you know that?-- and eventually, Dorothy did make her home in the Emerald City, having Princess Ozma wish Uncle Henry and Aunt Em there with her.

@@jburger84 Scarecrow is a man made of Straw=Strawman its a legal fiction, the song even states he'd unravel every riddle if he only had a brain. Paper Strawmen don't have brains and we are deceived via that status on paper.

The original book she wore Silver Slippers because silver was the hope of reclaiming what was lost to the Fed. Now they are Ruby Red depicting Blood. This movie does have a real set meaning and its very detailed and wicked when you understand it. It involves how we were all enslaved under the "Privately owned Federal Reserve Banks" This happened in Kansas as it was considered "The Heart of America" and this was a strike to the Heart of the country. This was all to clear to the older generations whom lived through what happened in the great depression a calculated event that was carried out to steal the gold reserves of America making the currency worthless.

They didn't "represent" anything. They were just three interesting characters out of hundreds that Baum ultimately created.

[@realdealastrology9]

What people absolutely fail to notice is that this movie is all about death, the afterlife, past lives, and future lives. It literally proves that there is life after death, which is why I watch this movie religiously at least once or twice a week. It's that powerful, and it enthralls the masses because of its grip on the human unconscious. The tornado symbolizes the act of death and the turbulence associated with it. When Dorothy gets hit with the windows, the death process begins. We see within the tornado all the people who mean the most to her, both her family and her main enemy (the Wicked Witch). This is called visioning, which happens during the dying process, and you actually see what's to come (symbolized by the changing of Ms. Gulch to the Witch), and meanwhile, the ones she loves just take different forms in the next life but are the same at their core. It's also extremely important to know that L. Frank Baum was a theosophist. What is theosophy? "Theosophy holds a monist position that there exists a single divine Absolute and articulates an emanationist cosmology in which the universe is perceived as outward reflections from this Absolute. The purpose of human life is spiritual emancipation and the human soul undergoes reincarnation upon bodily death according to a process of karma." Furthermore, the slogan for theosophy is "There is no religion higher than truth." ----- "There is no place like home." NEED I SAY MORE? Absolutely not. I just nailed the exact interpretation of this movie according to L. Frank Baum. You're welcome!!! Hopefully, my revelation here causes millions of people to see this movie in a brand new light.

When push came to shove, the Cowardly Lion always buckled under and whimpered when anyone of any size or stature challenged him.

it's an allegory of how the american people were enslaved when the US went off the gold standard. dollars were backed by people not gold. Toto means everything. The cowardly lion represents the american people, the straw and tin men represent the "person". Follow the yellow brick road means follow the gold. Our gold was stolen and we were enslaved by fear. you see, Our "forefathers" set us up: This is Section 1 of Virginia Declaration of Rights. It predates the Constitution for the United States: "That all [flesh-and-blood] men [and women] are by nature [created by God] equally free and independent [personal sovereignty], and have certain inherent [natural, God-given] rights, of which, when they enter into a state of society [legal definition of society is a collective organization of corporations; ie fictitious entities; ie the matrix], they cannot, by any compact [contract] deprive or divest their posterity [of such rights, only themselves]; namely, the enjoyment of life and liberty, with the means of acquiring and possessing property, and pursuing and obtaining happiness and safety." The bill of rights only applies to people; men and women. The word "person" is defined as a corporation, when you are a member of society; i.e., person, individual, us citizen, driver, taxpayer, etc etc etc, it is the avatar that exists in society, avatars have privileges because only flesh-and-blood people can have natural rights. technically, we have no constitutional rights because the constitution merely Affirms natural rights, whatever "constitutional" rights there are have been statutized into privileges for the avatar. When a baby is born, the bankrupt US Govt creates a corporation using the baby's name in all capital letters. it then uses the corporation as collateral to get a loan from the (private front company) federal reserve represented as federal reserve notes "dollars". People are the sureties for the "US citizen" corporation. Debt is transferred to people this way, police are revenue enforcers of the bankruptcy. This is the legal framework of our ensalvement since 1933. we went from the gold standard to the private faith and credit/future performance of the american people, that's why she called Neo "coppertop" in The Matrix --modern allegory of same thing, our energy is being stolen. "The validity of the public debt of the United States...shall not be questioned." 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, Section 4 also, when cops ask you something, ask them if they are making a request or demand. if a request, you can deny the request, if they are making a demand, there is a statute that gives the officer the authority to make such a demand. every crime is a commercial crime since it has value for the creditors of the bankrupt gov. attorneys ensure that debt gets transferred--"attorn" means "to transfer"! People in prison are collateral for municipal bonds. Cops aren't taught, they are trained. Rights are nothing mean nothing unless you assert them. We don't have constitutional rights, we have natural rights. People are flesh and blood men and women; persons are fictitious entities. We are conditioned to believe lies while we are led to the slaughterhouse.

It's only in the MGM movie that Dorothy dreams the whole adventure; in the books, Oz is real.

@jeffw5392 Miss Gulch had her leg broken by a falling telegraph pole during the storm, so while she'd on the mend, the Gales will settle things with the Sheriff, who, in all likelihood, only gave Miss G the order to get her out of his office.
