Covid Journeys with Chris Vogel

[enjoypolo]

This is a segment from a larger conversation with other panelists.

Chris Vogel is an author and speaker on all things Hero's Journey and Joseph Campbell's work, with extensive experience in cinema story-writing. I found this video of him talking on our Covid Hero's Journey we are all undergoing, as well as outlining the various steps, or chapters if you will, very enlightening.

It's very tarot-like and brings larger significance to the challenges we are faced with on a daily basis. If anything, THC listeners are probably more explicitely confronted to this. So cheers to all those actively walking the path


The Hero's Journey according to Joseph Campbell. I'd say we're somewhere between "approach to the inmost cave" or "the ordeal", as we've definitely crossed the threshold (aka "covid"), don't you think?

I like that it is depicted in a spiral and not a circle like many spiritual and epochal cycles are. Good symbology.

Anyone familliar with the book containing the images represented in this video?

Anyone familliar with the book containing the images represented in this video?

I'd say it's either from his book "The Writers Journey" or possibly Campbell's Hero with a thousand faces
