Myths are the spoken wisdom of the collective unconscious of humanity. They are a map to the inner wisdom of our ancestors. Myths tap into a dimension of the universe that is inaccessible by other means. They are a way to get in touch with archetypal wisdom of the collective unconscious. We can access this fundamental wisdom for our concerns and endeavors. Through myths, we become connected to our Inner Guide.
For example, the Hero’s journey is a coming of age story. The hero leaves home, as an untried youth, only to uncover their destiny. Along the way, the hero encounters helpers, overcomes obstacles, and learns their soul’s purpose. In facing the darkness during their travels, the hero finds their path to inner wisdom.
Using Mythic Cards of the Celts, Native Americans, and Hawai’ians, I open the world of myths to you. Through the spreads of Soul Wisdom, Medicine Wheel, and the Seven Stars, we follow the soul’s journey to enlightenment. Together, we weave the stories to create your personal mythic journey.
