An intriguing exploration of the enduring significance of the world's great myths--from the dawn of time to the present day As ancient as speech, as essential as law, myths are the stories we tell to find our identity in the cosmos. It is through mythology that we attempt to unravel not only the meaning of our actions and impulses but the significance of human existence itself. Now in Living Myths, classical scholar J. F. Bierlein explores the enduring patterns and messages of myths from every culture. Myths, writes Bierlein, are "the eternal mirror in which we see ourselves." Living Myths delves behind the mirror and brings to light the imperishable and transcendent forces common to the myths of the world. Juxtaposing myths of fathers and sons--the Greek myth of Athamas and Phrixus, the biblical story of Abraham and Isaac, the Algonquin tale of Grandfather, Father, and Son--Bierlein uncovers essential lessons about human nature and divine will. In the Indian story of Nala and Damayanti, the Greek legends of Aphrodite, and the haunting Irish tale of Etain, Bierlein examines the transforming mystery of romantic love. Here too are tales of the world's great heroes--the Greek Theseus, the Irish Cuchulainn, and the Mexican Quetzalcoatl--and their common desire to break through the masks of appearances. Steeped in wisdom, brimming with insights into human nature and behavior, Living Myths is a luminous exploration of the meaning of mythology through the ages and today in each of our lives.

Living Myth explores the dilemma of how to live life creatively at a time when the dominant myths of our culture are losing their power to give meaning to our lives. Using C. G. Jung's idea of discovering a "personal myth," D. Stephenson Bond reflects on the psychology of mythic imagination, as a force in both culture and individual life. He argues that meaning is experienced subjectively through the stirring of imagination and fantasy in the individual, which touches the larger impersonal, archetypal patterns. The book offers hopeful insights into the possibilities of cultural renewal and individual meaning through the restoration of the imagination.

In this second volume exploring myth and archetype, Evolutionary Astrologer, Energy Worker, Channel, and Medium Tom Jacobs takes apart the stories of eleven mythological figures to reveal empowering pathways through their stories. Most myths are cautionary tales. As we live these stories, we have choices about how they (our lives) turn out - there's no need for disaster just because we identify with particular mythological figures whose stories end badly. Yet we have to understand the threads of consciousness they represent within us in order to make healthier choices than they do. Included are the stories of Adam and Eve, Orpheus, Pallas Athene, Eris, Paris, Iphigenia, Don Juan and Dionysus, Prometheus, Nessus, Penelope and Sisyphus, and Oedipus. All are framed within the context of sacred psychology, bringing depth and meaning to how their stories exist within all humans.

Evolutionary astrologer, medium, and channel Tom Jacobs explores how people live the stories of ten mythic figures. He shares how to separate myth (stories handed down) from archetype (how people actually live the stories), offering insights into how to change our experience of the story so it doesn't turn out the same ways as in the myths, which usually end in frightful ways. This helps us get to the bottom of deep-seated patterns in our life with consciousness, allowing us to change and release what gives us trouble. Included are Ceres, Pallas Athene, Juno, Vesta, Chiron, Persephone, Lilith, Lucifer, Arjunsuri, and Ariadne.

Colin Grant challenges the popular use of "myth" as a dismissive designation of the superstitions and falsehoods of "other" cultures. The author maintains that myths occupy a place in our present-day lives that is every bit as important to us as the divinities and heroes of classical antiquity were to the ancients. The myths themselves are in a constant state of flux and transformation. They ebb and flow, both within the context of wider culture and individual experience.

"Myths, according to Freud's view, are of the psychological order of dream. Myths, so to say, are public dreams; dreams are private myths. " "There is no one quite like Joseph Campbell. He knows the vast sweep of man's panoramic past as few men have evern known it." -The Village Voice What is a properly functioning mythology and what are its functions? Can we use myths to help relieve our modern anxiety, or do they help foster it? In Myths to Live by, Joseph Campbell explores the enduring power of the universal myths that influence our lives daily and examines the myth-making process from the primitive past to the immediate present, retuning always to the source from which all mythology springs: the creative imagination. Campbell stresses that the borders dividing the Earth have been shattered; that myths and religions have always followed the certain basic archetypes and are no longer exclusive to a single people, region, or religion. He shows how we must recognize their common denominators and allow this knowledge to be of use in fulfilling human potential everywhere.
