I listened to Chris Vogler discussing his take on the Hero’s Journey, and it started me thinking about transformational narratives. This led to pondering the mythic meaning of the key images of 2020: masks, social distancing, obsessive hand washing. Where is this inward journey going? What elixir will we bring with us when we emerge from the underworld? How do we turn all this into story?

“I am the path.” (Chris Vogler)
