FIND YOUR SELF
IN THE MYTHS
Virtually all of the world's myths, scriptures, and sacred traditions can be shown to be based upon a common world-wide system of celestial metaphor, showing that they are all in fact closely connected, designed to convey profound wisdom for our lives.

The Star Myths of the World point us towards the importance of knowing the Invisible Realm which interpenetrates every aspect of this apparently-material universe, and towards recovering our self and our inner connection to the Infinite, which is always available to us no matter where we are.

Ta Promh
"The kingdom of heaven and the hope of glory are within.
They lurk within the unfathomed depths of consciousness.
Divinity lies buried under the heavier motions of
the sensual nature
and the incessant scurrying of
the superficial mind."

When we understand that all the world's myths, scriptures, and sacred stories (including those in the Bible) are built upon the very same system of celestial metaphor, and that we can actually verify the existence of this world-wide system of metaphor, then we should immediately realize that this shared foundation actually unites all of the world's myths, and all of the world’s men and women from all different cultures and continents and islands.
Far from being competitors or antagonists, the different Star Myths found around the world are all close relatives, teaching the same powerful truths using the same underlying system.
And one of their most central messages is our need to reconnect with who we are — with our authentic self — from whom we become alienated through the demands and complications of society and this life, and especially through the dislocation caused by trauma.
The ancient myths actually point us towards recovery of our self, and recovery from trauma. But their message has been lost, distorted, and even used as a means of dividing us from one another and deliberately inflicting trauma, instead of for their intended purpose of healing and empowering men and women.
The good news is that the powerful and profound messages which have been lost or forgotten can be found again and applied -- to our great benefit -- as we begin to learn how to listen to the Star Myths in the language that they are actually speaking: the language of the stars.
