The Deep Well – 3/17/16

“The hero must venture forth from the world of commonsense consciousness

into a region of supernatural wonder. There he encounters fabulous forces–demons and angels,

dragons and helping spirits. After a fierce battle, he wins a decisive victory over the powers of darkness.

Then he returns from his mysterious adventure with a gift of knowledge or fire, which he bestows on

his fellow man.” –Joseph Campbell
