The Hero's Journey of Self-Discovery

The cycle of the hero’s journey is a tale that is told over and over again, calling us to change by pushing us out of our comfort zone. These lessons are repeated over and over again, as one learns from their mistakes and improves upon life. Jonathan Young, PhD reveals the secrets of the hero’s journey as it can be applied to improve our lives in the modern world.

Jonathan Young, PhD, is a psychologist and storyteller who assisted mythologist Joseph Campbell for several years and went on to serve as the founding curator of the Joseph Campbell Archive and Library.

Campbell said that when you truly enter the Hero's Journey, allies come your way. I believe everyone here are allies to eachother.

The masculine and the feminine combines as one, heaven with earth ❤️

Self-Discovery is NOT about the human species, but about rediscovering "The LIGHT of MAN", The Real Self....

a year and half now. still in my journey. fear is gone, and old paradigms shifted. it was extremely painful, but i love it now. its weird that i dont want it to end despite the troubles surrounding me.

Jonathon Young makes The hero's journey sing. What a gift this man to understand it sooo eloquently. I need to more about this guy.

Without fear there can be no courage💚Without Courage there can be no bravery💚Without bravery there can be no HEROES💚

This is so on point because I got my spiritual awakening to an end now and I have so much wisdom now and so much has been lost and cleansed for something extraordinary beyond anyone or anything could imagine I feel so connected to everyone and everything now. Most of all I am connected to God now and am more humble. All the pain and sadness made me grow out of disgustfully fixed beliefs. Thank you Allah and Thank you 2020 for making me strong wise and spirtual

It took years as a teenager when I realized last year I was coming home to the Exilir. From my Journey, ANIMUS and ANIMA at work together into one Consciousness. last Sunday as I walked into my complex I saw a sign that read "Welcome Home" did not notice that sign in all the years living in my complex. I am so much Wiser and Noble full of life in my Shining Armored Knight. much love for everyone here because this is no coincidence.

This is not a myth, I am really living this right now, presently. It's also referred to as esoteric spiritual awakening/initiation.

[maryj.clutterbuck]

Live your life, listen to your intuition not the toxic mind and let it guide you, be grateful and things will come to you, live a heroes journey.

[jackhart]

This video has changed my mindset. I have been feeling like this for so long and never knew what it could be

[juancarlosorellana]

coming out of mine after 2 years, final chapter now. Thank you for this, your light eases my soul

[jbaker]

I love stuff like this. Every day I strive to be a better person than I was yesterday. And try as I may to do something for a stranger without any explanations of any return.

I enjoyed listening to Joseph Campbell, around 1989. Deep thinker! I bought his series Power of the Myth. It put religion on a level of symbolism where it belongs.

[kaylae]

This whole *Hero Journey* is representative and symbolic to the process and progress of a *Spiritual Awakening & Dark Night of the Soul* experience. Now I know what to reference to when I’m trying to explain a S.A to someone. lol. Great story and video!!

[ToneB]

Once you get past fear. The journey will be much easier.

[matthewstewart]

When we have leaders that consider us all as their people we will have truly mastered humanity.

Thank you for traveling with me on this journey.
