After renting in the San Francisco Bay Area for 38 years my wife and I bought a small (1.5 acres) of "raw" land 750 miles from our current rental. That was 7 years ago. I always dreamed of building our home with my own hands. The "Call to Adventure" was the 2008-9 financial crisis. We realized that if we didn't have a piece of land to go to then the next time it happened (now) we would probably be homeless. It was the scariest thing we've ever done. It was also the greatest adventure of our lives and I have to say the best decision we've ever made. Leaving in 5 days to go work on the "Cabin". A Timber Frame mountain lodge style cabin made with our own hands from lumber I milled myself. It has been built "debt-free" with blood, sweat and tears. Nothing I have ever done in my life compares to what we have accomplished other than our marriage and the birth of our children. It is truly a Hero's journey. Be the Hero of your own life. It's up to you.
If it's humanly possible then you can do it too. However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults even in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of a log cabin as brightly as from the rich man's mansion ; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace. Henry David Thoreau, Walden
When I was 17, I unkowingly went on my hero's journey alone, hitchhiking along the calif. coast up into Canada. I returned to the States and ended up in Berkeley Ca. My journey lasted a year with only 200.00 when I left Los Angeles. I returned home changed. The whole time I was traveling I was protected. I slept out doors only a couple of times. I was never without. I believed I was just a lucky guy. Today at 71, I see that time differently. I WAS helped by invisible hands. And it still follows today, I have had a charmed life. Although I'm 71, I haven't aged as one would expect. Feeling like in my early 50's, not reliant on any medications. All my 2000 parts working pretty good. Anyway, I've always paid attention to signs and lived accordingly. I've also found the secret to longevity which is.............. Sword.
🗡 I had 4 operations, thought could never move my arm again. I was very depressed for years. Then I started to practice Qi gong and Lian gong. I recovered myself and actually participated in two bodybuilding competitions this year, so unbelievable at 2 years ago.
⚔ correct - everything comes directly from God, which is the source - and no one and no thing can keep that from us which is ours by divine right. I think that I'm in the middle of a Dark Night right now, but I know that big things, good things are happening. I just have to keep moving forward.
Wonderfully said Lisa, I am a great admirer of the work you're doing! You have an amazing attitude and perspective on life, and I send positive energy and intentions for you to access your divine power to deal with your dark night and to continue following your bliss!
⚔️***I am in awe. I was called and literally left EVERYTHING to do so. This is the first time i am seeing a detailed explanation for what I am experiencing. Your content is much deeper than what you are actually showing us. Thank you.***
You're so welcome SuperJonz! Thank you for your very kind comment, and for taking the time to watch and support my work. May you continue to follow your bliss, and your divine purpose, wherever it may guide you. 🔱 💫
🛡⚔️🛡 I keep facing many hero’s journey time and time again, just when I thought I have defeated the greatest battle, am right back facing another one more fierce dragon than the one before… I can only pray for strength, wisdom, energy, calmness and Heart ❤️ to pull me through
🗡 I’m grateful for having the chance of watching your content. Every video that you produce is master piece, a life lesson, and a compass for whatever comes ahead. It is worth the wait! Definitely 🙏🏼 all the best!
Tiago, I am overwhelmed and humbled by your very kind words. Thank you for coming back to watch, comment, and show love for what I'm doing. I'm grateful for your support, all the best to you too, and may you continue to follow your bliss wherever it may take you 🗡
My first of your videos. Thank you for bringing me back to King Arthur and Joseph Campbell. As for me: Born into what was considered a wealthy family, I was adventurous in sports as I braved new experiences. I married with complete approval from my family. In a bad marriage.... at age 40, a metaphysical experience happened to me while driving home from commuting my child to school. "This is It" ...I had to learn what 'this' was about, I read many books on eastern thinking, and meditated a lot. My husband threw me out and my whole family abandoned me. My father gave my inheritance to my ex-husband. With no working skill, I married a Buddhist teacher who was my mentor. 30 years of meditation and retreats taught me a lot, but was not 'it'. When my husband died, I turned away from Buddhism to live near my sons. This brings me to now, in WWIII, our great war of good vs evil. I have now learned what my experience at age 40 was about. I AM ... now without fear from others or other lower realms of existence and appreciate what the 5th density of our planet is all about. I am highly intuitive, old, and ready for the next "turning of the wheel' in my life, whether it be death or a hundred more years. Either way, my next hidden dark place to conquer is public speaking. Abandonment still pinches my soul, but it's now more like an itch than a knife wound.
Thanks so much Margaret, for taking the time to share your difficult and powerful story of transformation. You are an inspiration! May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend.
🗡 I am proud to say that I have come far along this journey. Been through multiple dark night of the soul and finally following my own bliss and life’s journey.
I definitely have had many moments of dark soul experiences, just wasn’t awaken at the moments where I was being guided to break free, to grab my Excalibur and claim the true divinity that I AM. Thank you for this video, very enlightening.
I moved away from Oklahoma to Germany in 2019 and since then my life has reveled to me many things I did not want to know. Resisting the path felt like I was in control until I fell into the deepest depression I have ever faced. I sought help and slowly recovered. Depression doesn't just go away as I have learned. I have always been quiet spiritual and it wasn't until I was at my lowest that I decided to make my spirituality the most important relationship in my life. Since then my synchronicities have been insane. I know exactly where I stand on my journey and it's incredible because I have been through this spiral before. It's an expanding spiral thank goodness. With this new perspective I have confidence and strength to see the journey through. Although I still struggle with fear and anxiety, it's great to know that the universe has placed the richest rewards on the other side. I am very grateful for these videos and I am a HUGE fan!
During my kundalini awakening at the end I had an experience during a deep state of transformation and I saw how I pulled the sword from the stone. At the time I did not comprehend the full meaning of what had taken place but it was revealed to me that part of the meaning was that it means to receive thw sword of truth. To be able to wield the sword of truth. Thank you so much for this beautiful explanation you have shared as it is so familiar to me going through my awakening process. How amazingly it is too that one of the first books I read was the Alchemist too. I see finding your videos also a synchronicity as to where I am in my journey and confirming to me that no matter how huge our calling may be, we were born to fulfill it and I have come to realize how I was shown over my lifetime as to what my purpose was and is. To you who may read my words, I want you to know that you are indeed a magnificent being and more powerful than you may realize. Receive my peace and blessings as I have, I give to you. With much love and gratitude.
Wow, you're so welcome, Elizabeth. Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful comment, and for supporting my work. Much love and gratitude to you as you continue to follow your bliss, and pursue your personal legend.
🗡️ There is a call to adventure and I wish to go there. I just need to finish some previous work. You can't start a new adventure before you end your previous one. I am near completion and the sight of the new adventure that awaits for me feels me with joy. I know it will be hard, but I have so much to share. Thank you, I needed this right now. Yes, exactly now. This was a perfect time to receive this message. I don't know how long has this video been on my watch next list before I pressed it to play a random video from it. It has happened before. Just when I needed a lesson, I stumble upon it. Thanks for this lovely lesson. I needed it.
Embracing the call 📞 to adventure. King “Author’s” ✍️ sword for me is my ✏️ pencil and the stone is the eraser. Teaching others the power of writing and riting their storyline serves all ages. What a golden age!!!
Yes. We truly are living in the golden age. From hunger only existing in the darkest corners where the wars are happening, to the yet unseen prosperity. Try explaining to the average person from hundred years ago about so many kids learning more on UA-cam than they do in schools or what the MOOCs are. Who knows what a future will bring? I hope it will be bright. The pencil as a sword has reminded me of my decision to be a writer and write a kind of stories that would make children think about becoming a better person. Better than they would be if they had read the book written by someone who is more interested in money and fame instead of influencing the young readers instead. Well, tell me more about your pencil fighting. I want to know this information. Are you an educator?
🗡️ I have goosebumps listening this video. I have definitely faced my bigest demons after painful event. Thank you! This makes so much sense. Actually I have started to learn about Tarot cards, and the dots are connecting 🪐☯️
I truly resonate with the idea that our darkest moments are growing pains and that crisis, although camouflaged as pain, is the most significant in helping us realise who we really are..we are love.. connection and abundance. We each translate these feelings into different words and expressions depending on where we are. 🌞
Thanks so much Jack for your wonderful words of encouragement! Thank you for supporting me and what I'm doing, and may you follow your bliss and discover all the amazing pathways life has in store for you 🗡
🗡I really needed to hear this according to this I'm sure I started my hero's journey in 2017 and I'm nearing the end of my first cycle just to start another one, because growth is never-ending until the day we die we will continue to learn and grow thanks for renewing my resolve in continuing down this path I started.
I'm so glad to hear that Brandon! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave your wonderful comment. And for watching and supporting my work. May you continue to follow your bliss. Peace, power, and love to you as you pursue your personal legend. 🗡
Self discovery. I started my journey in 2012, public in 2019. This is so fucking hard and I will not stop until I breath no more. I am adventure, and I am meeting the darkest places in my soul. I feel I die every night and every morning I struggle again, for you.
As a student of this information and a big reader of Jung and Jos Campbell, your distillation of this information is top notch. Your point of view is wonderful to listen to and integrate. Thank you so much for your perspective and sharing it with us. 🗡️
I went through 2 hard times in my life. Its fascinating how both of the times turned out to be blessings in disquise. The first hard time i was bit younger in my early to mid twenties. Turned out the very thing that caused so much stress and anxiety was the thing that rescued us. My most recent rough period, which just ended 7 months ago. I needed to walk into that dark cave to get out of that one also aided by miracles. But the thing is, having been through that dark cave, if you will, i feel im literally equipped to take on whatever i need to do to accomplish what im here for on this earth. I really feel theres nothing i cant do because i already did something that is harder then whatever is out there. I do believe that was my test and i needed to walk in that cave and do it, which i did. Im actually on my way to achieving something that i always dreamt of as we speak. I wouldnt be in this position if it wasnt for those hard lessons, most certainly not.
🗡 Bruh I am obsessed with your work. Jung x Campbell, a splash of Paulo Cohelo. Masterfully done! Yes, had a couple of DNOTS. One when I was 18 and we had a string of family deaths. It drove me to double up on classes, graduate a year early, and move to Thailand. A second when I was 23 and my life fell apart --> ultimately led to me getting into a career that I love. It's totally cliche, but it's that idea of pressure making diamonds. The hard parts of the human experience are powerful catalysts for transformation.
Thanks so much Chiara, I'm a huge fan of your work as you know. And thank you for sharing your DNOTS, and the ways you've experienced loss in your life, and how it's lead you to a career you love. That is the definition of following your bliss, and it's wonderful to see. And it's a very true cliche! Thanks for supporting me. I appreciate you and the light you're bringing to the world with your work!
Amen to that. I had also a few Dark Nights then went on for months. And in each one of them I found the Holy Grail at the darkest hour in those nights. And the Grail was always my own light. And it opened up a new Path towards a more noble direction. Now my life is beautiful in all dimensions and I would not trade those experiences for anything in the world
⚔️ namaste, thank you so much for such a profound collaboration of wisdom. I chose to be brave and courageous and walk the heroes journey. I overcame alcoholism and had a core psychic cellular change. I was reborn, energetically, mentally, emotionally, physically and especially spiritually, and I share my wisdom and a 12 step program so that I can help see the light come on in somebody else’s eyes to know that they can be free.
Absolutely! Thank you RA S for taking the time to watch and support my work . 🗡️ ⚔️ May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend.
I watched that interview on Rogan some months ago and was touched then by the concept of naming, claiming and reigning your kingdom. This vid expands on that and is a timely reminder. Thank you
⚔⚔⚔Loved it. This week I realized that I would have to leave my job and even my concept of what making a living is, to become my true self. Wish me luck as I finally, at age 62, follow my bliss.
I learned so much about myself and word in 19 minutes. I believe that synchronizet is the spiritual realm trying to contact you. Thank you for this beautiful reflection 🌹
Thanks so much, Gacera! What a beautiful comment, I love your energy. Thank you for joining me on my journey and for letting me be a part of yours. Peace, power, and love to you as you follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend.
I struggled with homelessness for 8 years of life. I am recovering from that experience. I'm uncertain exactly why I needed to go through homelessness, but I wish it upon no one. 🗡️
My own life is a Book of Sorrows...losses, mistakes, abandonment & bitterness. Alone now at age 66, I know death will be my ultimate escape. My only advice to the young is beware who you give your love to....expect hardships....enjoy your hobbies....avoid booze/drugs.....drive carefully....protect your inner child & never give up.
Thank you Dan for taking the time to share your wisdom and experiences of sorrow and loss for everyone who may find them here. At 66 years you have seen and experienced so much, and learned more than most. I do believe that life has meaning and purpose to the very last instant, and that each of us is very important to the world. May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend. I appreciate you
Fascinating storytelling that synthesizes King Arthur's legend, the hero's journey, and the individuation path into a cohesive piece. I found inspiration here with your "hidden hands" at work 🗡👏🎬
I recently came across your channel and already greatly admire your work and knowledge base. It was quite a synchronicity haha, as I have been recently researching many of these topics myself, both out of curiosity and to do research for my own videos. You' re obviously a very old and advanced soul and I think it's part of your destiny to share your talents and wisdom with the world. I'd love to see a video about your own spiritual awakening and how you learned all of this interesting knowledge. take care!
Hello Jonathan! I am humbled and blown away by your very kind words. It means a lot to me, coming from a fellow content creator as yourself, and someone with your tremendous talents. The feeling is mutual, and I do believe you are destined for great things. I am very glad you found my channel, and I'm delighted to have found yours. Thank you also for the very kind video request, that's a wonderful idea, and I will definitely keep it in mind to explore for the future. You deserve much more exposure and I believe it will find you. Take care and best wishes.
@@ModernIntuitionist Thanks so much man, you are very kind-hearted in addition to knowing a lot about spirituality haha. I think that is the cool thing about the internet era and content creation, it allows people from very different backgrounds to network and connect based on resonating with each other on a philosophical level. Keep up the great work bro!
Thank you Jonathan for so eloquently stating your admiration and appreciation of this channel. I couldn't have said it better. I am basically binge watching the posted videos. It has become my favorite UA-cam viewing. .
I had watched a few excellent videos before this regarding synchronicities because of what I experienced years ago. It is much too complicated and detailed to go into right now. Then I happen to notice this particular video about King Arthur, which unexpectedly became a significant part of my journey. I was encouraged to read a book entitled: " The 21 Lessons of Merlyn", by author, Douglas Monroe. His researches are more about the historical King Arthur, rather than the legendary one. Within the first chapter, I found an incredible connection to my own personal life, which I strongly feel now that it was a past- life. I was there, and it coincides with parts of this journey having to do with a key figure within it. By the way, back in 1999 I, for some reason, received a brochure for real swords, etc. I ordered the the one named: "Excaliber" and had it in my possession up until March of this year, when I passed it on to my son. I had no more use for it. The magic was gone. I had reached out to so many in the past, in hopes of getting my story told and had to repress it for so long that it really doesn't matter anymore. And this is how I feel...if the Universe or Spirit has a message for me, then meet me face to face. Tell me straight out what you want me to reveal. Because I am done with the old way of communicating. It feels like a game to me that I am done playing. Don't mean any disrespect, just exhausted. Anyway, thanks for this video!
🗡Funny thing is…my dad died two years ago which thrust me into my hero’s journey. I’m a filmmaker and decided to brush back up on story and read The Hero’s Journey and realized I had to go through that in order to take on the new adventure. That which lead me to create my best work I think I’ve ever created. My mini-series “Miami Steve”
So true !!! I am at the returning stage of my journey after facing tremendous amounts of challenges and difficulties in the last 4 years! And finally miraculously guided to return. Thank you for your great work 🙏
🗡⚔ Two sword emojis for the two times I watched this excellent video. I’m in the difficult phase of yet another heroes journey. I seem to go on a new one every seven years or so. Each one is harder than the one before. I’m currently floundering after giving up my old life and 95% of my possessions, moving across the country, and starting anew with no support. I’ve been trying lots of doors but none are opening. I’m also challenged with how to coalesce my desire to tell stories (writing) with making movies and building a production company. I want them all and yet feel I have no idea what I’m doing. I guess I’m in the shadow facing phase and it’s rough going. I’m finding comfort in videos like this that give me hope. Thanks for being some of my synchronicities!
this is just GOLD 🗡 I've binge watched about 6 or 7 of your videos today, and each one is just what I needed to hear. If you take Campbell's 17 stages and and in the factor of time it follows a perfect repeating wave pattern with peaks and troughs, just like the path of life.
I have no idea where the hell I am or what I'm supposed to be doing, but I know I'm missing something. I've been through several "cycles", I guess, as I've lost everything I owned 3 different times and had to start over. I've been engaged twice and both fell through... and I found out my 3 year old daughter wasn't mine when her drug-addicted mother ran off with her and sued me for child support back in 2005. I refused to be in a long-term relationship after my second engagement fell through in 2006 and I haven't been in a one since. I found that being alone stopped all of the loss and heartache. I also got into a career that I have enjoyed for 15 years, now. I followed one of the videos here and found that my Life Path 1 meant that my main goal is to learn to balance relationships and work. Well, that ain't happening when I haven't been in a relationship in nearly 2 decades. So.... I'm stuck. I feel within myself that I am here for a reason.... and have absolutely no idea what the fuck it is. It's so terribly frustrating. BTW, I watched the video.. i just don't know or care how to use the emojis here.
One of the best channels I have come across on UA-cam. Kudos to you and your effort! Not everyone follows the synchrony that leads them to content like this, but some including me did. There is a reason behind it for sure One may call it youtube algorithm, but I call it alignment of willingness between me and universe. I am so desperately seeking answers, and here I am, at your channel. Thank you for all the work that you are putting in :) keep going! Subscribed and pressed the bell icon too :)
Wow thank you Uzma! I am blown away by your very kind comment. It really made my day. I will strive to be worthy of it. People like you are the whole reason I do this, and comments like yours make it all worth it. Thank you for being a part of my journey, and for letting me be a part of yours. May you continue to follow your bliss Uzma! Take care and all the best
I post this because you say that you are desperately seeking answers. And I have good news. "Truth is simple," the Creator tells we who have ears to hear. And complication but obscures the simple Truth, which is why Truth is esoteric to this world. This channel is one of the best out there. As for myself, I am a very simple man, led to the Holy Grail (The Meaning of Life) so that I can share it with others - stripped of all complication. UA-cam's algorithm doesn't allow my channel to be recommended to anyone, because I offer the simple cure for a certain disease that you aren't supposed to know about, because it doesn't make money for certain people. ($$ C*A*N*C*E*R $$). But click and ye shall find that, as well as a tiny book that can be read online in about 5 minutes, but leaves no meaningful question unanswered: "The Book of GOD". (I don't receive UA-cam comment notifications, but I respond to my contact page.)
Even though i do have this channel on all notifications i didnt recall seeing any notifications. I was wondering today if Elson is still doing videos so i came here to check and see there been two that i missed since i was here last and this one is way beyond amazing and put together perfectly . It is real and this how it all happens .. Maybe i was meant to see the video right now as im about to go into the next stage in what im about to do as everything happens to perfect timing. About the the Dark Night of the Soul, ive been there many times but ive always held on knowing i will learn precious lessons during it and that will help me later when i need them the most .But i do watch one movie when im in those tought situations and thats The Shawshank Redemption which always gets me through..
Thanks so much for your continued support Mystik Rebel! It means a lot to me, and really warmed my heart to read. Folks such as yourself are the whole I reason I do this, and it makes it all worth it. I wish you strength as you enter the next stage of what you're about to do. May you continue to follow your bliss, and pursue your personal legend!
@@ModernIntuitionist You are doing a great service to Dharma because these subjects are complicated and you put them together brilliantly packaged with the videos and information to reach out to people who are unknowingly or knowingly are waking up as our the collective consciousness is shifting eventually to something greater as everything is orchestrated to perfect divine timing like a composition of great music. And on a personal level the videos always get me refocused on the journey I have to walk towards even if its all by myself. So thanks again and keep on bringing out those videos as you dont know who out there you are helping also on their journey..
That really warmed my heart to read Tivoli Eclipse! Thanks so much for your comment ⚔ May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend
Elson, your videos have all affected me in a powerful way--this one the most. Because of a chain of numerical patterns and personal trauma (my husband had a stroke in 2020, after a series of synchronocities) I have become more aware of the mysteries of the universe (those mind-blowing synchronocities slapped me to attention), leading me to your thought-provoking videos. Because of information online and channels like yours, I have been turned-on (I was raised in the sixties 😊) to keep opening my mind. This week was a mostly calm period after so much health chaos (for my husband... rushed emergencies, surgeries, constantly living in fight or flight), so I have been pondering the universe and our souls' mysteries, even learning about the I Ching. I have had the words river and flow and the number 3 keep popping into my life. In the I Ching, I found some lines that got me thinking about those words and meaning (I HAVE been feeling out of balance; too much stress and not enough joy). I went out for my first non medical trip two days ago, to a market. I drove there behind a car with a license plate ending in 333. At the store, a man (Looking like a Maharishi) tapped me on the shoulder. After finding out I'm in the music business, he whipped out printed song lyrics he wanted me to photograph. The lyrics "Follow Your Bliss". The top of the printed lyrics was a big purple 3. I drove home, smiling, behind another car with a license plate ending in 333. Because I don't have many people who would appreciate these magical moments I shared the lyrics on my Instagram post and thanked you for keeping me interested and open to life's mysteries. These moments of magic keep me excited to carry on. I NEEDED to hear the message in this video. Thank you.
Wow, what a beautiful synchronicity experience, Michele. I can't tell you how much it means to me to read such a kind and wonderful comment as the one you've just left here. It really warmed my heart. Peace, power, and love to you as you continue to follow your bliss.
Thank you, great content. Especially the younger generations should put down their cell phones and dive into the amazing stories that have been written for them a long time ago,…
Choose love and breathe in gratitude. If we do have a choice, then we should choose love. Love ourselves first and foremost, because it enables us to be the best lover of everyone. Nobody decided to be born, but it's our choice to live. ❤🙏
Thank you Kema for your continued support! I'm also so proud to see the success of your channel, I'm a great fan of your work as well! May you keep following your bliss. 🗡
The River of The Dark Night Leads to The Ocean of Eternal Light The DARK NIGHT of the Soul, is just THAT. A NIGHT. And, although that Night may seem as though it stretches on for what feels to be Forever, much like navigating a treacherous River full of enormous rocks, twists and turns, like all Rivers, it eventually flows into the Ocean. Yet, this Ocean is one of the brightest and deepest, for it is the one of ETERNAL LIGHT that stretches into Infinity and back again. It is There, that one finds oneself, in all its authenticity. It is There, one returns to The Divine Creator and Source of ALL. It is There, that one is HOME. Only one who is willing to accept the challenge of traversing the Dark Night River completely, will know the indescribable and glorious magnificence of swimming in the Ocean of Eternal Light, and truly be able to reclaim the fragmented aspects of themselves and piece them together to become whole once more.
🗡 Whew! The DNOTS was extremely tough. It felt like, HELL and took a special, almost supernatural kind of strength, to emerge from. However, I came through a much wiser, more loving, happier being, that feels, at peace. I now understand who I AM and honestly, yup, I'd do it all over again. 🤭 Thank u for your videos, I always learn SO much from them.🙏🏽
Thank you Hopscotch Giggles for taking the time to share your beautiful insight with all of us, for following your bliss, and for come back into the light. I appreciate your continued support, and I appreciate you! Take care and all the best! 🗡
Thank you for this. Gives a framework for my own journey and reinforces what I've found at the other side - the journey grants incredible freedom and internal peace. Oh, so worth it! 👍
Great video as usual, thank you for all your hard work in presenting these. I had an experience like that nearly three years ago now. Covid had just struck and the world was in a tale spin. I took time off work and did something I had been wanting to do for a long time. I wrote a novella, full time, every day and absolutely loved it. By the time I returned to work I knew that I needed a complete change in my life and resigned my job to write full time despite the likelihood of no income. I was close to retirement age, had some money and no debt, so I took the leap. This was no sudden idea, I had written before but never full time. The difference that a total commitment made was incredible. Here I am now two and a half years on, just completed my eighth book and loving it more than ever. I realised while watching your video that it was kind of what happened for me and I'm still undergoing the transformation. Still waiting for that elusive income but it was never my primary objective. As far as I'm concerned I have already succeeded. I'm a full time writer. 😀⚔
I cannot tell you how timely this arrived for me. I know these times are tiring for All of us. Yet, personally,… “Darkness” has had a grip on my for some time. I’m beginning to see a Crack of Light. This well done piece… a condensed, concentrated, look at fragments I know, yet cannot seem to grasp. Thank You. I also give gratitude for the….nudge of the Cosmos….
Thanks so much for sharing that Lancelot! It really warmed my heart to read. I'm grateful for your support, and may you access your divine strength to deal with your dark night of the soul, and continue to follow your bliss! I appreciate you
Love this video! A topic very close to my heart :D Very well executed and polish, from the animated transitions to the music. Incorporating the scenes of the movie added so much! I love that movie. It didn't do that well at the box office, but art has to only touch a few people to change their lives, who in turn can touch the lives of millions more.
That's very kind my friend, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts here! I enjoyed it too, it's a different vision of King Arthur than we're used to, but the basic elements of the story are all there. It is a shame it didn't do better. I read that it was originally a 3 hour movie but there was a casting issue that caused them to cut a huge amount of the film, so what we saw is not quite what the original vision was. It doesn't look like we'll see any sequels anyway. I look forward to your hero's journey content as well, and your own unique take on it! Take care
My friend I understood everything you've said that is of absolute truthI I can't begin to tell you my journey, but I can assure you that each life event that needed revisiting time and time again, (always very painful) but very rewarding for self knowledge
⚔ These videos are just what I need. I don't know how I came upon them, but since starting Jung has dropped into my mailbox and I feel myself drawing towards something within myself. Your videos are an invitation we gave to ourselves to journey. Thanks.
🗡 this is the best video I’ve seen on the heroes journey. I’ve learned about this concept a long time ago but I’ve never seen it communicated so well & I feel like I have a far better understanding now after watching this - Thank you for creating & sharing 🙏
Excellent video well done, my story began when I became a caretaker for my mom, and I worked in corrections, but nothing will ever prepare you, for the awaken of the real life journey, so these makes, so much sense about finding out about the next stage in this existance, and that greates gift for me, that our love ones are fine... and I received so much evidence, and work with the divine laws. So Thank you much. 🗡
Who am I!! That's it. That's what I keep asking myself and then I realize that's a program you've been programmed with keep going! Thank you for again the reminder
Incredible! What a video. I quoted some parts of what you said about tragedy to family because they needed to hear it right now. You are really helping people, thank you.
😍 Funny l was looking for a video that will example synchronicity and I came across this video. You made an example of King Arthur and I love that movie. Thank you 🙏
Another fantastic vid 🗡♥️ I think I’ve shared with you that my surgery recovery sparked my spiritual awakening literally as I woke daily at 3:33a which led me down the rabbit hole and that’s how I found you. The DNOTS can be daunting but a necessity for ascension. You were my first teacher and for that I’m thankful 🙏🏽. Your content is incomparable. Loving all of it 👏🏽.
Thank you Nelly! I am so delighted you found me, and even happier that your recovery has sparked a spiritual awakening that's enabled you to live and follow your bliss. Thank you for sharing your inspiring experience with us all. I'm grateful for your continued support, and I appreciate you!
I've been feeling like I've been on a journey, my life has been quite interesting to say the least. This video helped me feel encouraged to continue especially dealing with grief from loosing my grandfather this year.
🗡 one circle ends and another begins. There is a brighter light and the dark night of the soul was the same phrase I used to describe a difficult period that made me confront the reality of an unexpected physical limitation that had to be overcome. On to the next journey. There have been many and for the wealth of those experiences, I am constantly reborn.
To look at the darkest part of you without blinders or justification is truly terrifying. I woke up one day to find my life in shambles and felt something split inside me. I found a woman online in a forum that gave me direction and in words not even addressed to me, words that she had written 5 years prior, she helped me find my answers. She didn’t even know I existed, yet if not for her, I would have still been drowning in my own guilt, pity, rage and sadness. That was 20 years ago now, yet I keep those lessons close to me. They have helped me many times since, they changed my entire perspective and allow me to see consequences clearly, her words gave me much more than solace, they literally gave me wings. 🗡️
17:37 I face my dark night of the soul last year, during the covid lockdowns. I could not move the way I wanted, my financial prospects dried up....I conformed....and tried to eat up the frustration with cookies and food. Than I fell....Then I broke my collar bone, and slowly I was slipping into indigestion, worry, constanst stress and negative emotion untill I was stuck...lethargic,....and I call it depression. The lack of live....than I slowly turned around....and I am out of it now.
My heart goes out to you Dario. Peace, power, and love to you as you navigate these hardships. Thank you for taking the time to share your dark night of the soul. may you pursue your personal legend wherever it takes you.
Thank you so much for making these incredible videos! The messages you spread are so needed in this world and you can clearly hear your authenticity and passion in it. Sending you much love!
Yes I had the dark night of the soul , wanted to end it all but felt I had to keep going. Had many Signs and finally followed them even when it Seemed like it was hard and wanted to give up again. But strange signs kept showing up so I continued . Then it all came together and now I’m so happy that I did ! Amazing how it happens. For anyone reading ask for the Signs and when they come you will know and trust it . I took to long swimming up hill Worrying about what I wanted people to think of me about being what I thought I should be and missing out on who I was ment to be. One day I wrote on paper what I wish I could be that would give me Peace leaving out nothing. And it was not a big house or a Great job that I was the boss so I looked good . It was a job my heart could enjoy the hours that gave me freedom and it happened that in a add there was one applied got it . And it was uncomfortable at first but the Signs kept happening so I stayed. What do you know it gave me peace! Dropped my ego and I’m happy. And I’m proud of me being me funny people ask me for advice now . I wouldn’t usually write anything in a post but it might help someone out there. All the best:-)
I read the Hero of a Thousand faces last year and it was a rough, refreshing read. Watching this makes me want to read it again for an even better understanding. Thank you for this ⚔️
Great work! I have gone through the dark night of the soul, so very very difficult but I somehow through it experienced enlightenment and have discovered this amazing internal bliss! 🗡
I gained clarity of the story of king Arthur. i'm facing the dark night of the soul at the moment. i felt stuck in life. i hope i'd get over this soon.
Thank you Buck for watching and supporting this video! May you access your inner strength to get through your dark night of the soul and follow your bliss!
⚔️ definitely a good nutshell description of the Hero's Journey ⚔️ enjoyable, insightful, and a perfect introduction to share with those who haven't before encountered the concept 🗡️ good work !⚔️🙏🧡
⚔ I can only say just now that these videos are tremendously well-thought-out and exquisitely rendered. You are explaining phenomena for me in ways that are deeply connective and clear, so that adopting them into my waking life is possible. Having studied Jung's writings over my lifetime and now your videos, I can say that your work is a significant, impactful contribution to the quests we must face as beings. Thank you for illuminating the tools for the journey so eloquently and ably!
Wuufff this video is amazing. Explains perfectly and beautifully the hero's journey. I've been reading Campbell's books so this is perfect. Love your channel, great work man keep it going!!
Thanks so much for your very kind comment and words of encouragement Alexis! I'm truly humbled by your support. May you continue to follow your bliss wherever your journey may take you!
After renting in the San Francisco Bay Area for 38 years my wife and I bought a small (1.5 acres) of "raw" land 750 miles from our current rental. That was 7 years ago. I always dreamed of building our home with my own hands. The "Call to Adventure" was the 2008-9 financial crisis. We realized that if we didn't have a piece of land to go to then the next time it happened (now) we would probably be homeless. It was the scariest thing we've ever done. It was also the greatest adventure of our lives and I have to say the best decision we've ever made. Leaving in 5 days to go work on the "Cabin". A Timber Frame mountain lodge style cabin made with our own hands from lumber I milled myself. It has been built "debt-free" with blood, sweat and tears. Nothing I have ever done in my life compares to what we have accomplished other than our marriage and the birth of our children. It is truly a Hero's journey. Be the Hero of your own life. It's up to you.
What a fantastic story! Continue on living your truth! 🙏💚🧘🏻
Congratulations! You got this!
@lampyrisnoctiluca9904 I do. One of the things I never say, even to myself "that's impossible"
If it's humanly possible then you can do it too.
However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults even in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of a log cabin as brightly as from the rich man's mansion ; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace.
Henry David Thoreau, Walden
When I was 17, I unkowingly went on my hero's journey alone, hitchhiking along the calif. coast up into Canada. I returned to the States and ended up in Berkeley Ca. My journey lasted a year with only 200.00 when I left Los Angeles. I returned home changed. The whole time I was traveling I was protected. I slept out doors only a couple of times. I was never without. I believed I was just a lucky guy. Today at 71, I see that time differently. I WAS helped by invisible hands. And it still follows today, I have had a charmed life.
Although I'm 71, I haven't aged as one would expect. Feeling like in my early 50's, not reliant on any medications. All my 2000 parts working pretty good. Anyway, I've always paid attention to signs and lived accordingly. I've also found the secret to longevity which is.............. Sword.
and every night while the whole worlds fast asleep i stay up to look at the stars and ask " father, teach me how to be a Hero!"
🗡 I had 4 operations, thought could never move my arm again. I was very depressed for years. Then I started to practice Qi gong and Lian gong. I recovered myself and actually participated in two bodybuilding competitions this year, so unbelievable at 2 years ago.
⚔ correct - everything comes directly from God, which is the source - and no one and no thing can keep that from us which is ours by divine right. I think that I'm in the middle of a Dark Night right now, but I know that big things, good things are happening. I just have to keep moving forward.
Wonderfully said Lisa, I am a great admirer of the work you're doing! You have an amazing attitude and perspective on life, and I send positive energy and intentions for you to access your divine power to deal with your dark night and to continue following your bliss!
I pray those good things find you.....🙏🏾🌟
@@fabianphillips4165 Thank you!
Good vibes!
Keep your head up. ♡
The quality of the content in this channel is mad. Keep going!! :)
Thanks very much Ansh for your very kind words of encouragement and continued support. I'm very grateful to have support from folks like yourself!
⚔️***I am in awe. I was called and literally left EVERYTHING to do so. This is the first time i am seeing a detailed explanation for what I am experiencing. Your content is much deeper than what you are actually showing us. Thank you.***
This is very PROPHETIC! And I believe I was destined to watch this powerful narrative to awaken my calling and divine purpose! Thank you very much 🔱 💫
You're so welcome SuperJonz! Thank you for your very kind comment, and for taking the time to watch and support my work. May you continue to follow your bliss, and your divine purpose, wherever it may guide you. 🔱 💫
🛡⚔️🛡 I keep facing many hero’s journey time and time again, just when I thought I have defeated the greatest battle, am right back facing another one more fierce dragon than the one before… I can only pray for strength, wisdom, energy, calmness and Heart ❤️ to pull me through
Thank you, Romeo! Peace, power, and love to you as you follow your bliss 🛡⚔️🛡 and pursue your personal legend
@Romeo Jackson Some daily Qi Gong and/or Tai Chi practice will, over time, make The Force your ally. Might be the missing Stabiliser you need...
Stay strong!
🗡 I’m grateful for having the chance of watching your content. Every video that you produce is master piece, a life lesson, and a compass for whatever comes ahead. It is worth the wait! Definitely 🙏🏼 all the best!
Tiago, I am overwhelmed and humbled by your very kind words. Thank you for coming back to watch, comment, and show love for what I'm doing. I'm grateful for your support, all the best to you too, and may you continue to follow your bliss wherever it may take you 🗡
My first of your videos. Thank you for bringing me back to King Arthur and Joseph Campbell. As for me: Born into what was considered a wealthy family, I was adventurous in sports as I braved new experiences. I married with complete approval from my family. In a bad marriage.... at age 40, a metaphysical experience happened to me while driving home from commuting my child to school. "This is It" ...I had to learn what 'this' was about, I read many books on eastern thinking, and meditated a lot. My husband threw me out and my whole family abandoned me. My father gave my inheritance to my ex-husband. With no working skill, I married a Buddhist teacher who was my mentor. 30 years of meditation and retreats taught me a lot, but was not 'it'. When my husband died, I turned away from Buddhism to live near my sons. This brings me to now, in WWIII, our great war of good vs evil. I have now learned what my experience at age 40 was about. I AM ... now without fear from others or other lower realms of existence and appreciate what the 5th density of our planet is all about. I am highly intuitive, old, and ready for the next "turning of the wheel' in my life, whether it be death or a hundred more years. Either way, my next hidden dark place to conquer is public speaking. Abandonment still pinches my soul, but it's now more like an itch than a knife wound.
Thanks so much Margaret, for taking the time to share your difficult and powerful story of transformation. You are an inspiration! May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend.
⚔ wonderful stuff, please keep it coming. This is one of my favorite channels.
Thanks so much, Yusuf! I truly appreciate you
never stop making videos! they nourish my soul
Thanks so much Emma for your kind words! I'm grateful for your support, and may you follow your bliss, wherever it may take you!
🗡 I am proud to say that I have come far along this journey. Been through multiple dark night of the soul and finally following my own bliss and life’s journey.
I definitely have had many moments of dark soul experiences, just wasn’t awaken at the moments where I was being guided to break free, to grab my Excalibur and claim the true divinity that I AM. Thank you for this video, very enlightening.
I moved away from Oklahoma to Germany in 2019 and since then my life has reveled to me many things I did not want to know. Resisting the path felt like I was in control until I fell into the deepest depression I have ever faced. I sought help and slowly recovered. Depression doesn't just go away as I have learned. I have always been quiet spiritual and it wasn't until I was at my lowest that I decided to make my spirituality the most important relationship in my life. Since then my synchronicities have been insane. I know exactly where I stand on my journey and it's incredible because I have been through this spiral before. It's an expanding spiral thank goodness. With this new perspective I have confidence and strength to see the journey through. Although I still struggle with fear and anxiety, it's great to know that the universe has placed the richest rewards on the other side. I am very grateful for these videos and I am a HUGE fan!
⚔️
During my kundalini awakening at the end I had an experience during a deep state of transformation and I saw how I pulled the sword from the stone. At the time I did not comprehend the full meaning of what had taken place but it was revealed to me that part of the meaning was that it means to receive thw sword of truth. To be able to wield the sword of truth. Thank you so much for this beautiful explanation you have shared as it is so familiar to me going through my awakening process. How amazingly it is too that one of the first books I read was the Alchemist too. I see finding your videos also a synchronicity as to where I am in my journey and confirming to me that no matter how huge our calling may be, we were born to fulfill it and I have come to realize how I was shown over my lifetime as to what my purpose was and is. To you who may read my words, I want you to know that you are indeed a magnificent being and more powerful than you may realize. Receive my peace and blessings as I have, I give to you. With much love and gratitude.
Wow, you're so welcome, Elizabeth. Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful comment, and for supporting my work. Much love and gratitude to you as you continue to follow your bliss, and pursue your personal legend.
I'm just flabbergasted right now. These videos come into my life right at a time that i need them the most. Thanks again!🙌🗡
You're so welcome, Timothy! May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend
🗡️ There is a call to adventure and I wish to go there. I just need to finish some previous work. You can't start a new adventure before you end your previous one.
I am near completion and the sight of the new adventure that awaits for me feels me with joy. I know it will be hard, but I have so much to share. Thank you, I needed this right now. Yes, exactly now. This was a perfect time to receive this message. I don't know how long has this video been on my watch next list before I pressed it to play a random video from it.
It has happened before. Just when I needed a lesson, I stumble upon it. Thanks for this lovely lesson. I needed it.
Embracing the call 📞 to adventure. King “Author’s” ✍️ sword for me is my ✏️ pencil and the stone is the eraser. Teaching others the power of writing and riting their storyline serves all ages. What a golden age!!!
Yes. We truly are living in the golden age. From hunger only existing in the darkest corners where the wars are happening, to the yet unseen prosperity. Try explaining to the average person from hundred years ago about so many kids learning more on UA-cam than they do in schools or what the MOOCs are. Who knows what a future will bring? I hope it will be bright.
The pencil as a sword has reminded me of my decision to be a writer and write a kind of stories that would make children think about becoming a better person. Better than they would be if they had read the book written by someone who is more interested in money and fame instead of influencing the young readers instead.
Well, tell me more about your pencil fighting. I want to know this information. Are you an educator?
🗡️
I have goosebumps listening this video. I have definitely faced my bigest demons after painful event.
Thank you! This makes so much sense. Actually I have started to learn about Tarot cards, and the dots are connecting 🪐☯️
I often praise videos in the comments but I cannot express how profound this video was. Wow. That’s all I can say. Wow.
Thanks so much, Cas, for your very kind comment. It really warmed my heart to read. May you follow your bliss and pursue your own personal legend!
🗡Masterful as always. I knew I loved the legend of King Arthur for a reason.
Thanks so much, Kate! May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend!
I truly resonate with the idea that our darkest moments are growing pains and that crisis, although camouflaged as pain, is the most significant in helping us realise who we really are..we are love.. connection and abundance. We each translate these feelings into different words and expressions depending on where we are. 🌞
sword emoji....
Gods never late, I needed this video today. Thank you, I love your channel.
Thanks so much Jack for your wonderful words of encouragement! Thank you for supporting me and what I'm doing, and may you follow your bliss and discover all the amazing pathways life has in store for you 🗡
🗡I really needed to hear this according to this I'm sure I started my hero's journey in 2017 and I'm nearing the end of my first cycle just to start another one, because growth is never-ending until the day we die we will continue to learn and grow thanks for renewing my resolve in continuing down this path I started.
I'm so glad to hear that Brandon! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave your wonderful comment. And for watching and supporting my work. May you continue to follow your bliss. Peace, power, and love to you as you pursue your personal legend. 🗡
Self discovery. I started my journey in 2012, public in 2019. This is so fucking hard and I will not stop until I breath no more. I am adventure, and I am meeting the darkest places in my soul. I feel I die every night and every morning I struggle again, for you.
As a student of this information and a big reader of Jung and Jos Campbell, your distillation of this information is top notch. Your point of view is wonderful to listen to and integrate. Thank you so much for your perspective and sharing it with us. 🗡️
I went through 2 hard times in my life. Its fascinating how both of the times turned out to be blessings in disquise. The first hard time i was bit younger in my early to mid twenties. Turned out the very thing that caused so much stress and anxiety was the thing that rescued us.
My most recent rough period, which just ended 7 months ago. I needed to walk into that dark cave to get out of that one also aided by miracles. But the thing is, having been through that dark cave, if you will, i feel im literally equipped to take on whatever i need to do to accomplish what im here for on this earth. I really feel theres nothing i cant do because i already did something that is harder then whatever is out there. I do believe that was my test and i needed to walk in that cave and do it, which i did.
Im actually on my way to achieving something that i always dreamt of as we speak. I wouldnt be in this position if it wasnt for those hard lessons, most certainly not.
🗡 Bruh I am obsessed with your work. Jung x Campbell, a splash of Paulo Cohelo. Masterfully done!
Yes, had a couple of DNOTS. One when I was 18 and we had a string of family deaths. It drove me to double up on classes, graduate a year early, and move to Thailand. A second when I was 23 and my life fell apart --> ultimately led to me getting into a career that I love.
It's totally cliche, but it's that idea of pressure making diamonds. The hard parts of the human experience are powerful catalysts for transformation.
Thanks so much Chiara, I'm a huge fan of your work as you know. And thank you for sharing your DNOTS, and the ways you've experienced loss in your life, and how it's lead you to a career you love. That is the definition of following your bliss, and it's wonderful to see. And it's a very true cliche! Thanks for supporting me. I appreciate you and the light you're bringing to the world with your work!
Amen to that. I had also a few Dark Nights then went on for months. And in each one of them I found the Holy Grail at the darkest hour in those nights. And the Grail was always my own light. And it opened up a new Path towards a more noble direction. Now my life is beautiful in all dimensions and I would not trade those experiences for anything in the world
⚔️ namaste, thank you so much for such a profound collaboration of wisdom. I chose to be brave and courageous and walk the heroes journey. I overcame alcoholism and had a core psychic cellular change. I was reborn, energetically, mentally, emotionally, physically and especially spiritually, and I share my wisdom and a 12 step program so that I can help see the light come on in somebody else’s eyes to know that they can be free.
I can only say this: thank you, thank you and, again, thank you for this video. It has helped me unimaginably. 🙏
It's a long story of betrayal and deceit, including health issues, and Tada! I back stronger than ever!
Love your work. 🖋🗡
Thank you for this video 🗡️ My hero's journey starts now. ⚔️
Absolutely! Thank you RA S for taking the time to watch and support my work . 🗡️ ⚔️ May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend.
I watched that interview on Rogan some months ago and was touched then by the concept of naming, claiming and reigning your kingdom. This vid expands on that and is a timely reminder. Thank you
⚔⚔⚔Loved it. This week I realized that I would have to leave my job and even my concept of what making a living is, to become my true self. Wish me luck as I finally, at age 62, follow my bliss.
I learned so much about myself and word in 19 minutes. I believe that synchronizet is the spiritual realm trying to contact you. Thank you for this beautiful reflection 🌹
I am not going to say anything new! Thank you for being! And I am very happy to be a part of this tribe! :)
Thanks so much, Gacera! What a beautiful comment, I love your energy. Thank you for joining me on my journey and for letting me be a part of yours. Peace, power, and love to you as you follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend.
I struggled with homelessness for 8 years of life. I am recovering from that experience. I'm uncertain exactly why I needed to go through homelessness, but I wish it upon no one. 🗡️
My own life is a Book of Sorrows...losses, mistakes, abandonment & bitterness.
Alone now at age 66, I know death will be my ultimate escape.
My only advice to the young is beware who you give your love to....expect hardships....enjoy your hobbies....avoid booze/drugs.....drive carefully....protect your inner child & never give up.
Thank you Dan for taking the time to share your wisdom and experiences of sorrow and loss for everyone who may find them here. At 66 years you have seen and experienced so much, and learned more than most. I do believe that life has meaning and purpose to the very last instant, and that each of us is very important to the world. May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend. I appreciate you
Fascinating storytelling that synthesizes King Arthur's legend, the hero's journey, and the individuation path into a cohesive piece. I found inspiration here with your "hidden hands" at work 🗡👏🎬
I come back to this over and over. It’s helped me through really hard times on my own journey. Thank you! 🗡
🗡 the synchronicity of stumbling on this now… WOW
Amazing video. Thank you for all the effort and brilliance you put into your content
Bravo this means everything to me at this moment. My heartfelt gratitude & Love 🙌🏾 I wish you only the best life beholds ⚔️
I recently came across your channel and already greatly admire your work and knowledge base. It was quite a synchronicity haha, as I have been recently researching many of these topics myself, both out of curiosity and to do research for my own videos. You' re obviously a very old and advanced soul and I think it's part of your destiny to share your talents and wisdom with the world. I'd love to see a video about your own spiritual awakening and how you learned all of this interesting knowledge. take care!
Hello Jonathan! I am humbled and blown away by your very kind words. It means a lot to me, coming from a fellow content creator as yourself, and someone with your tremendous talents. The feeling is mutual, and I do believe you are destined for great things. I am very glad you found my channel, and I'm delighted to have found yours. Thank you also for the very kind video request, that's a wonderful idea, and I will definitely keep it in mind to explore for the future. You deserve much more exposure and I believe it will find you. Take care and best wishes.
@@ModernIntuitionist Thanks so much man, you are very kind-hearted in addition to knowing a lot about spirituality haha. I think that is the cool thing about the internet era and content creation, it allows people from very different backgrounds to network and connect based on resonating with each other on a philosophical level. Keep up the great work bro!
Thank you Jonathan for so eloquently stating your admiration and appreciation of this channel. I couldn't have said it better. I am basically binge watching the posted videos. It has become my favorite UA-cam viewing. .
@@viviennea.293 Of course Vivienne - agree that its such an awesome channel that offers insights you really can't find anywhere else!
Don't look to others for the knowledge;it is within yourself..
I had watched a few excellent videos before this regarding synchronicities because of what I experienced years ago. It is much too complicated and detailed to go into right now.
Then I happen to notice this particular video about King Arthur, which unexpectedly became a significant part of my journey. I was encouraged to read a book entitled: " The 21 Lessons of Merlyn", by author, Douglas Monroe. His researches are more about the historical King Arthur, rather than the legendary one. Within the first chapter, I found an incredible connection to my own personal life, which I strongly feel now that it was a past- life. I was there, and it coincides with parts of this journey having to do with a key figure within it. By the way, back in 1999 I, for some reason, received a brochure for real swords, etc. I ordered the the one named:
"Excaliber" and had it in my possession up until March of this year, when I passed it on to my son. I had no more use for it. The magic was gone. I had reached out to so many in the past, in hopes of getting my story told and had to repress it for so long that it really doesn't matter anymore. And this is how I feel...if the Universe or Spirit has a message for me, then meet me face to face. Tell me straight out what you want me to reveal. Because I am done with the old way of communicating. It feels like a game to me that I am done playing. Don't mean any disrespect, just exhausted.
Anyway, thanks for this video!
🗡Funny thing is…my dad died two years ago which thrust me into my hero’s journey. I’m a filmmaker and decided to brush back up on story and read The Hero’s Journey and realized I had to go through that in order to take on the new adventure. That which lead me to create my best work I think I’ve ever created. My mini-series “Miami Steve”
So true !!! I am at the returning stage of my journey after facing tremendous amounts of challenges and difficulties in the last 4 years! And finally miraculously guided to return. Thank you for your great work 🙏
You're so welcome Rose. Thank you for your support! May you follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend, wherever it may take you
Outstanding in so many ways. Into the forest⚔
🗡⚔ Two sword emojis for the two times I watched this excellent video. I’m in the difficult phase of yet another heroes journey. I seem to go on a new one every seven years or so. Each one is harder than the one before. I’m currently floundering after giving up my old life and 95% of my possessions, moving across the country, and starting anew with no support. I’ve been trying lots of doors but none are opening. I’m also challenged with how to coalesce my desire to tell stories (writing) with making movies and building a production company. I want them all and yet feel I have no idea what I’m doing. I guess I’m in the shadow facing phase and it’s rough going. I’m finding comfort in videos like this that give me hope. Thanks for being some of my synchronicities!

Thank you for reinvigirating my sense of hope, to live
⚔️ Thank you for making this channel, it's amazing to rebuild oneself..❤
this is just GOLD 🗡 I've binge watched about 6 or 7 of your videos today, and each one is just what I needed to hear. If you take Campbell's 17 stages and and in the factor of time it follows a perfect repeating wave pattern with peaks and troughs, just like the path of life.
I have no idea where the hell I am or what I'm supposed to be doing, but I know I'm missing something. I've been through several "cycles", I guess, as I've lost everything I owned 3 different times and had to start over. I've been engaged twice and both fell through... and I found out my 3 year old daughter wasn't mine when her drug-addicted mother ran off with her and sued me for child support back in 2005.
I refused to be in a long-term relationship after my second engagement fell through in 2006 and I haven't been in a one since. I found that being alone stopped all of the loss and heartache. I also got into a career that I have enjoyed for 15 years, now.
I followed one of the videos here and found that my Life Path 1 meant that my main goal is to learn to balance relationships and work. Well, that ain't happening when I haven't been in a relationship in nearly 2 decades. So.... I'm stuck.
I feel within myself that I am here for a reason.... and have absolutely no idea what the fuck it is. It's so terribly frustrating.
BTW, I watched the video.. i just don't know or care how to use the emojis here.
One of the best channels I have come across on UA-cam. Kudos to you and your effort! Not everyone follows the synchrony that leads them to content like this, but some including me did. There is a reason behind it for sure One may call it youtube algorithm, but I call it alignment of willingness between me and universe. I am so desperately seeking answers, and here I am, at your channel. Thank you for all the work that you are putting in :) keep going! Subscribed and pressed the bell icon too :)
Wow thank you Uzma! I am blown away by your very kind comment. It really made my day. I will strive to be worthy of it. People like you are the whole reason I do this, and comments like yours make it all worth it. Thank you for being a part of my journey, and for letting me be a part of yours. May you continue to follow your bliss Uzma! Take care and all the best
I post this because you say that you are desperately seeking answers. And I have good news. "Truth is simple," the Creator tells we who have ears to hear. And complication but obscures the simple Truth, which is why Truth is esoteric to this world.
This channel is one of the best out there. As for myself, I am a very simple man, led to the Holy Grail (The Meaning of Life) so that I can share it with others - stripped of all complication. UA-cam's algorithm doesn't allow my channel to be recommended to anyone, because I offer the simple cure for a certain disease that you aren't supposed to know about, because it doesn't make money for certain people. ($$ C*A*N*C*E*R $$). But click and ye shall find that, as well as a tiny book that can be read online in about 5 minutes, but leaves no meaningful question unanswered: "The Book of GOD". (I don't receive UA-cam comment notifications, but I respond to my contact page.)
Even though i do have this channel on all notifications i didnt recall seeing any notifications. I was wondering today if Elson is still doing videos so i came here to check and see there been two that i missed since i was here last and this one is way beyond amazing and put together perfectly . It is real and this how it all happens ..
Maybe i was meant to see the video right now as im about to go into the next stage in what im about to do as everything happens to perfect timing.
About the the Dark Night of the Soul, ive been there many times but ive always held on knowing i will learn precious lessons during it and that will help me later when i need them the most .But i do watch one movie when im in those tought situations and thats The Shawshank Redemption which always gets me through..
Thanks so much for your continued support Mystik Rebel! It means a lot to me, and really warmed my heart to read. Folks such as yourself are the whole I reason I do this, and it makes it all worth it. I wish you strength as you enter the next stage of what you're about to do. May you continue to follow your bliss, and pursue your personal legend!
@@ModernIntuitionist You are doing a great service to Dharma because these subjects are complicated and you put them together brilliantly packaged with the videos and information to reach out to people who are unknowingly or knowingly are waking up as our the collective consciousness is shifting eventually to something greater as everything is orchestrated to perfect divine timing like a composition of great music.
And on a personal level the videos always get me refocused on the journey I have to walk towards even if its all by myself. So thanks again and keep on bringing out those videos as you dont know who out there you are helping also on their journey..
⚔️This video has helped me a lot in these trying times. Thank you and God bless
⚔I have a new appreciation for my tragic experiences!
That really warmed my heart to read Tivoli Eclipse! Thanks so much for your comment ⚔ May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend
@@ModernIntuitionist Thank you!
Elson, your videos have all affected me in a powerful way--this one the most.
Because of a chain of numerical patterns and personal trauma (my husband had a stroke in 2020, after a series of synchronocities) I have become more aware of the mysteries of the universe (those mind-blowing synchronocities slapped me to attention), leading me to your thought-provoking videos.
Because of information online and channels like yours, I have been turned-on (I was raised in the sixties 😊) to keep opening my mind.
This week was a mostly calm period after so much health chaos (for my husband... rushed emergencies, surgeries, constantly living in fight or flight), so I have been pondering the universe and our souls' mysteries, even learning about the I Ching.
I have had the words river and flow and the number 3 keep popping into my life. In the I Ching, I found some lines that got me thinking about those words and meaning (I HAVE been feeling out of balance; too much stress and not enough joy).
I went out for my first non medical trip two days ago, to a market. I drove there behind a car with a license plate ending in 333.
At the store, a man (Looking like a Maharishi) tapped me on the shoulder. After finding out I'm in the music business, he whipped out printed song lyrics he wanted me to photograph. The lyrics "Follow Your Bliss".
The top of the printed lyrics was a big purple 3.
I drove home, smiling, behind another car with a license plate ending in 333.
Because I don't have many people who would appreciate these magical moments I shared the lyrics on my Instagram post and thanked you for keeping me interested and open to life's mysteries. These moments of magic keep me excited to carry on.
I NEEDED to hear the message in this video.
Thank you.
Wow, what a beautiful synchronicity experience, Michele. I can't tell you how much it means to me to read such a kind and wonderful comment as the one you've just left here. It really warmed my heart. Peace, power, and love to you as you continue to follow your bliss.
@@ModernIntuitionist ❤❤❤
Thank you, great content. Especially the younger generations should put down their cell phones and dive into the amazing stories that have been written for them a long time ago,…
Choose love and breathe in gratitude. If we do have a choice, then we should choose love. Love ourselves first and foremost, because it enables us to be the best lover of everyone. Nobody decided to be born, but it's our choice to live. ❤🙏
Insane this only get hundreds of views....your channel is gold, thanks for your work! Keep spreading the good message!
That's very kind GTHK, thanks so much for watching and supporting my work! Comments like yours make it all worth it. Take care and all the best
Such a lovely video, Elson. I would love to read more Joseph Campbell. 🗡
Thank you Kema for your continued support! I'm also so proud to see the success of your channel, I'm a great fan of your work as well! May you keep following your bliss. 🗡
The River of The Dark Night Leads to The Ocean of Eternal Light
The DARK NIGHT of the Soul, is just THAT. A NIGHT. And, although that Night may seem as though it stretches on for what feels to be Forever, much like navigating a treacherous River full of enormous rocks, twists and turns, like all Rivers, it eventually flows into the Ocean. Yet, this Ocean is one of the brightest and deepest, for it is the one of ETERNAL LIGHT that stretches into Infinity and back again. It is There, that one finds oneself, in all its authenticity. It is There, one returns to The Divine Creator and Source of ALL. It is There, that one is HOME.
Only one who is willing to accept the challenge of traversing the Dark Night River completely, will know the indescribable and glorious magnificence of swimming in the Ocean of Eternal Light, and truly be able to reclaim the fragmented aspects of themselves and piece them together to become whole once more.
🗡 Whew! The DNOTS was extremely tough. It felt like, HELL and took a special, almost supernatural kind of strength, to emerge from. However, I came through a much wiser, more loving, happier being, that feels, at peace. I now understand who I AM and honestly, yup, I'd do it all over again. 🤭
Thank u for your videos, I always learn SO much from them.🙏🏽
Thank you Hopscotch Giggles for taking the time to share your beautiful insight with all of us, for following your bliss, and for come back into the light. I appreciate your continued support, and I appreciate you! Take care and all the best! 🗡
@@ModernIntuitionist 🙏🏽 Thank you!
I felt Every word in this video was meant for me at exactly this time thanks to god the almighty that guided me to u and thank you 1
Thank you for this. Gives a framework for my own journey and reinforces what I've found at the other side - the journey grants incredible freedom and internal peace. Oh, so worth it! 👍
You're so welcome, Deolog! May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend
Great video as usual, thank you for all your hard work in presenting these. I had an experience like that nearly three years ago now. Covid had just struck and the world was in a tale spin. I took time off work and did something I had been wanting to do for a long time. I wrote a novella, full time, every day and absolutely loved it. By the time I returned to work I knew that I needed a complete change in my life and resigned my job to write full time despite the likelihood of no income. I was close to retirement age, had some money and no debt, so I took the leap. This was no sudden idea, I had written before but never full time. The difference that a total commitment made was incredible. Here I am now two and a half years on, just completed my eighth book and loving it more than ever. I realised while watching your video that it was kind of what happened for me and I'm still undergoing the transformation. Still waiting for that elusive income but it was never my primary objective. As far as I'm concerned I have already succeeded. I'm a full time writer. 😀⚔
I cannot tell you how timely this arrived for me. I know these times are tiring for All of us. Yet, personally,… “Darkness” has had a grip on my for some time. I’m beginning to see a Crack of Light. This well done piece… a condensed, concentrated, look at fragments I know, yet cannot seem to grasp. Thank You. I also give gratitude for the….nudge of the Cosmos….
Thanks so much for sharing that Lancelot! It really warmed my heart to read. I'm grateful for your support, and may you access your divine strength to deal with your dark night of the soul, and continue to follow your bliss! I appreciate you
Love this video! A topic very close to my heart :D Very well executed and polish, from the animated transitions to the music. Incorporating the scenes of the movie added so much! I love that movie. It didn't do that well at the box office, but art has to only touch a few people to change their lives, who in turn can touch the lives of millions more.
That's very kind my friend, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts here! I enjoyed it too, it's a different vision of King Arthur than we're used to, but the basic elements of the story are all there. It is a shame it didn't do better. I read that it was originally a 3 hour movie but there was a casting issue that caused them to cut a huge amount of the film, so what we saw is not quite what the original vision was. It doesn't look like we'll see any sequels anyway. I look forward to your hero's journey content as well, and your own unique take on it! Take care
@@ModernIntuitionist 🗡
My friend I understood everything you've said that is of absolute truthI I can't begin to tell you my journey, but I can assure you that each life event that needed revisiting time and time again, (always very painful) but very rewarding for self knowledge
⚔ These videos are just what I need. I don't know how I came upon them, but since starting Jung has dropped into my mailbox and I feel myself drawing towards something within myself. Your videos are an invitation we gave to ourselves to journey. Thanks.
🪷🗡️ Excellent video (and channel) which I shall watch over and over till I have absorbed the message. Grateful thanks.
🗡 this is the best video I’ve seen on the heroes journey. I’ve learned about this concept a long time ago but I’ve never seen it communicated so well & I feel like I have a far better understanding now after watching this - Thank you for creating & sharing 🙏
Thanks so much for your very kind comment! It made my day 🗡🗡
This really hit home. Excellent video.
🗡 thank you. Ive always loved King Arthur and The Knights at The Round Table
Excellent video well done, my story began when I became a caretaker for my mom, and I worked in corrections, but nothing will ever prepare you, for the awaken of the real life journey, so these makes, so much sense about finding out about the next stage in this existance, and that greates gift for me, that our love ones are fine... and I received so much evidence, and work with the divine laws.
So Thank you much. 🗡
You're so welcome, JP! Peace, power and love to you as you pursue your own personal legend. I appreciate you!
Who am I!! That's it. That's what I keep asking myself and then I realize that's a program you've been programmed with keep going! Thank you for again the reminder
Incredible! What a video. I quoted some parts of what you said about tragedy to family because they needed to hear it right now. You are really helping people, thank you.
😍 Funny l was looking for a video that will example synchronicity and I came across this video. You made an example of King Arthur and I love that movie. Thank you 🙏
You're so welcome, Bellina! Thank you, and may you follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend, wherever it may take you
Another fantastic vid 🗡♥️
I think I’ve shared with you that my surgery recovery sparked my spiritual awakening literally as I woke daily at 3:33a which led me down the rabbit hole and that’s how I found you. The DNOTS can be daunting but a necessity for ascension. You were my first teacher and for that I’m thankful 🙏🏽. Your content is incomparable. Loving all of it 👏🏽.
Thank you Nelly! I am so delighted you found me, and even happier that your recovery has sparked a spiritual awakening that's enabled you to live and follow your bliss. Thank you for sharing your inspiring experience with us all. I'm grateful for your continued support, and I appreciate you!
🗡♥
Thank you for your work. Your videos are beautiful, both in substance and visually.
You're so welcome, Hector! Thank you, I am so grateful for your support!
Phenomenal content ⚔️⚔️
Thanks so much, T Chandy! May you continue to follow your bliss and pursue your personal legend, wherever it may take you.
This needs more views! Amazing quality and content ❤❤
I've been feeling like I've been on a journey, my life has been quite interesting to say the least. This video helped me feel encouraged to continue especially dealing with grief from loosing my grandfather this year.
🗡 one circle ends and another begins. There is a brighter light and the dark night of the soul was the same phrase I used to describe a difficult period that made me confront the reality of an unexpected physical limitation that had to be overcome. On to the next journey. There have been many and for the wealth of those experiences, I am constantly reborn.
To look at the darkest part of you without blinders or justification is truly terrifying. I woke up one day to find my life in shambles and felt something split inside me. I found a woman online in a forum that gave me direction and in words not even addressed to me, words that she had written 5 years prior, she helped me find my answers. She didn’t even know I existed, yet if not for her, I would have still been drowning in my own guilt, pity, rage and sadness. That was 20 years ago now, yet I keep those lessons close to me. They have helped me many times since, they changed my entire perspective and allow me to see consequences clearly, her words gave me much more than solace, they literally gave me wings. 🗡️
Could you share those words?
Excellent, again, thank you. Yes I've been in the belly of the beast, gone over the waterfall . .couldn't find the sword emoji. ❤
17:37 I face my dark night of the soul last year, during the covid lockdowns. I could not move the way I wanted, my financial prospects dried up....I conformed....and tried to eat up the frustration with cookies and food. Than I fell....Then I broke my collar bone, and slowly I was slipping into indigestion, worry, constanst stress and negative emotion untill I was stuck...lethargic,....and I call it depression. The lack of live....than I slowly turned around....and I am out of it now.
My heart goes out to you Dario. Peace, power, and love to you as you navigate these hardships. Thank you for taking the time to share your dark night of the soul. may you pursue your personal legend wherever it takes you.
Thank you so much for making these incredible videos! The messages you spread are so needed in this world and you can clearly hear your authenticity and passion in it. Sending you much love!
Thanks so much Lore. Much love to you and yours as well! May you continue to follow your bliss
This was excellent ! Thank you for putting this video together
Thanks so much for your continued support Michel. May you follow your bliss, wherever it may take you
Yes I had the dark night of the soul , wanted to end it all but felt I had to keep going. Had many Signs and finally followed them even when it Seemed like it was hard and wanted to give up again. But strange signs kept showing up so I continued . Then it all came together and now I’m so happy that I did ! Amazing how it happens. For anyone reading ask for the Signs and when they come you will know and trust it . I took to long swimming up hill Worrying about what I wanted people to think of me about being what I thought I should be and missing out on who I was ment to be. One day I wrote on paper what I wish I could be that would give me Peace leaving out nothing. And it was not a big house or a Great job that I was the boss so I looked good . It was a job my heart could enjoy the hours that gave me freedom and it happened that in a add there was one applied got it . And it was uncomfortable at first but the Signs kept happening so I stayed. What do you know it gave me peace! Dropped my ego and I’m happy. And I’m proud of me being me funny people ask me for advice now . I wouldn’t usually write anything in a post but it might help someone out there. All the best:-)
I read the Hero of a Thousand faces last year and it was a rough, refreshing read. Watching this makes me want to read it again for an even better understanding. Thank you for this ⚔️
You're so welcome, Mohammed. Thank you!
Great work! I have gone through the dark night of the soul, so very very difficult but I somehow through it experienced enlightenment and have discovered this amazing internal bliss! 🗡
I gained clarity of the story of king Arthur. i'm facing the dark night of the soul at the moment. i felt stuck in life. i hope i'd get over this soon.
Thank you Buck for watching and supporting this video! May you access your inner strength to get through your dark night of the soul and follow your bliss!
⚔️ Thank-you for this. Very well done, in fact all your videos are! 🙏
Thanks so much!
thank you for making these amazing videos. they are great guidance
You're so welcome, Mana! I appreciate you
⚔️ definitely a good nutshell description of the Hero's Journey ⚔️ enjoyable, insightful, and a perfect introduction to share with those who haven't before encountered the concept 🗡️ good work !⚔️🙏🧡
⚔ I can only say just now that these videos are tremendously well-thought-out and exquisitely rendered. You are explaining phenomena for me in ways that are deeply connective and clear, so that adopting them into my waking life is possible. Having studied Jung's writings over my lifetime and now your videos, I can say that your work is a significant, impactful contribution to the quests we must face as beings. Thank you for illuminating the tools for the journey so eloquently and ably!
Wuufff this video is amazing. Explains perfectly and beautifully the hero's journey. I've been reading Campbell's books so this is perfect. Love your channel, great work man keep it going!!
Thanks so much for your very kind comment and words of encouragement Alexis! I'm truly humbled by your support. May you continue to follow your bliss wherever your journey may take you!
