Myth Matters

In the dark woods: what myths say about leaving home

Send Catherine a text Message “You must give up the life you planned in order to have the life that is waiting for you.”-- Joseph Campbell In this episode we explore the mythic theme of leaving home as a central part of answering the call to transformation. Drawing from myths such as Inanna’s Descent, Valemon the White Bear King , Psyche and Eros , and The Odyssey , we reflect on the symbolic and literal meanings of “home,” and how leaving it often initiates deep personal change.
