Epic Journey
I’m a huge Joseph Campbell fan. Campbell is widely heralded as one of the foremost authorities on myth, which means he was enthralled by stories. He is credited with the quote, “Follow your bliss.” Campbell taught about the hero/heroine’s journey, mapping out the various parts of such a journey, their purpose and pitfalls. The major arcana cards in Tarot follow this epic journey, and they also become a clear depiction for us that whether we know it or not, we are all here on this earth on an epic journey....

It was the first round of Integrated Imagery training at the A.R.E in Virginia Beach and I found myself seated in a room with thirty strangers who almost all looked so familiar to me.

Every year a new version of Charles Dickens’s “A Christmas Carol” comes out in a movie or TV show, and I love the story, so I enjoy them all, but last night my favorite version was on TMC. It’s a musical version with Albert Finney. For years before the advent of cable TV, I had the song “Thank you very much, thank you very much. That’s the nicest thing that anyone’s ever done for me…” playing randomly through my thoughts when something kind was done and I wasn’t sure of it’s origin. Well,...
