The Hero's Journey

There is a universal pattern or story line, that exists in our lives. This pattern, occurs in small cycles and in larger cycles and is working to reveal the path, that our lives are intended to follow. When we flow against that path, events and situations can occur that bring us an opportunity to connect to our life purpose. We each have something unique to offer the world that brings us joy and has a positive impact on those around us. When we are out of alignment with our deepest truth or purpose, it can show up as a sign or a calling. Joseph Campbell refers to this cycle as The Hero's Journey.
"You enter the forest at the darkest point, where there is no path. Where there is a way or a path, it is someone else’s path. You are not on your own path. If  you follow someone else’s way, you are not going to realize your potential."
~ Joseph Campbell

The Call to Find Purpose & Meaning

Picture
​Seeking Awareness ~ You may feel an emptiness, you are searching for an answer. Deep in your being you feel that there is something more for you. You are leading a happy life yet something is missing. You begin to notice signs that something is wanting to change in your life. These  signs can be internal or external, a nudge an intuition or perhaps you are faced with what seems like a test or a challenge. Deep in your core,  you know that you have to stop and have a look at your life, and you  may not know how to take action.

Answering the Call  ~ When you answer the call, you are saying a powerful "Yes" to your  awareness. You are taking responsibility for what is occurring in your life. You are ready to take action and move forward. You take the  first step and acknowledge to yourself that you will either find support or begin to make changes in your life.

Letting Go  ~ You find your strength and you are connected to your deepest purpose.  Knowing yourself perhaps for the first time, you literally let go of  everything you have known and take action, trusting the outcome. You become connected to yourself in a new and powerful way, hidden strengths  and talents begin to emerge.

​Embracing the Uncertainty  ~ As you take action, you are stepping directly into the unknown. You know you are moving towards something and you may be uncertain about  what exactly that looks like. You are between what you have known and  the unknown in the future. Like a trapeze artist jumping off the platform. You know that you will be leaving aspects of your past life behind you.

New Beginning / The Return  ~ Here, you are enjoying the payoff of your hard work. You are surprised at how things have actually turned out. You see the world  differently and are firmly planted on your new path. You return to your life and your community, stronger and wiser with a clear sense of purpose.

“People say that what we’re all seeking is a meaning for life. I don’t think that’s what we’re really seeking. I think that what we’re seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances with our own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive.”  ~ Joseph Campbell
