The individual has to find an aspect of myth that relates to his own life…Myth opens the world to the dimension of mystery, to the realization of the mystery that underlies all forms. If you lose that, you dont have a mythology. When you see the Earth from the moon, you dont see any divisions there of nations or states. This might be the symbol, really, for the new mythology to come. One thing that comes out of myths, for example, is that at the bottom of the abyss comes the voice of salvation. The black moment is the moment when the real message and transformation is going to come. At the darkest moment comes the light. Myth is a manifestation in symbolic images, in metaphorical images, of the energies of the organs of the body in conflict with each other. Joseph Campbell
