The Living Tarot, CA. 2016 on going...

A myth is a story, one certainly with a specific narrative, but one with broader implications. It can be set anywhere, be about anyone, either familiar or fantastical, and yet they will resonate universally because the story itself is a metaphor that shrouds a greater truth. To understand the collective unconscious, one must first speak its language, and that language is poetry. Myths are our metaphors for expressing the collective unconscious.   Tarot works as a tool because it uses myths, our metaphors, to help us access that unconscious.   It also works because like the Iliad, it is poetry. To read and write poetry is to reveal the unconscious.
