About the Author

Dalton Treviso
Dalton Treviso is a symbolic studies researcher and writer based in Curitiba, Brazil. He has spent the better part of a decade exploring the intersection of Jungian psychology, comparative mythology, and the history of sacred symbols — and more recently, translating that research into accessible writing for general readers.
His interest in symbolism began not in academia but in the gap between what he read in books and what people actually experienced: the recurring dream that felt significant, the mythic story that seemed to describe a real interior state, the ancient image that appeared in contexts centuries and continents apart. That gap — between scholarly interpretation and lived experience — became the territory EINSOF7 tries to inhabit.
Research Focus
Dalton’s primary areas of interest include Jungian archetypes and depth psychology, cross-cultural animal symbolism, ancient Near Eastern and Egyptian iconography, the symbolic dimensions of dreams, and the recurring mathematical patterns that appear in sacred architecture across different civilizations.
He works at the intersection of the analytical and the accessible — grounded enough in the research to be trustworthy, but committed to writing that a non-specialist can actually read and use. The goal is not simplification but translation: taking ideas that live in dense academic language and finding the clearer form underneath.
About Einsof7
EINSOF7 grew out of Dalton’s years of reading across mythology, depth psychology, and the history of religion — and the persistent frustration of finding that most online writing on these subjects was either too shallow or too specialized. He wanted a place where serious engagement with symbolic traditions could be done in plain language, without sacrificing nuance or accuracy.
The name draws on the Kabbalistic concept of Ein Sof — the infinite, the boundless — as a way of naming what the symbolic imagination ultimately points toward: the part of experience that exceeds easy definition.
Every article on this site reflects that ambition. Some posts are close readings of a single symbol. Some trace an archetype across multiple cultures. Some try to make sense of why a particular dream image has persisted for three thousand years. All of them begin with genuine curiosity and end with more questions than they started with — which is, as far as Dalton is concerned, the right outcome.
Published Work
Dalton writes primarily on EINSOF7 across five interlocking areas: animal symbolism and the cross-cultural meaning of specific creatures; archetypal psychology and the figures described by Jung — the Shadow, the Hero, the Trickster, and others; mythic narrative and how ancient stories encode psychological truths; sacred geometry and the recurring mathematical patterns embedded in religious architecture; and dream symbolism, including the specific images and scenarios that appear across different dreamers and different centuries.
His focus is always on the specific over the general — a named symbol, a documented tradition, a dated text — and on making that specificity readable rather than academic.
