The Hero's Journey~ The Story of All Stories

Hero's Journey Joseph Campbell's concept of monomyth (one myth) refers to the theory that sees all mythic narratives as variations of a single great story regardless of their origin or time of creation.
Campbell called it “The Hero’s Journey.” A story of a man or woman, who through great suffering, reached an experience of the eternal source and returned home with gifts powerful enough to set their society free.
“I don’t believe that people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.”
- Joseph Campbell
The hero's journey was first described in Campbell’s book: The Hero with a Thousand Faces (1949) and became a bestseller, with a particular impact on George Lucas, the creator of Star Wars and he has credited the book with shaping his thoughts about the saga and Luke Skywalker's thrilling adventures follow almost every stage laid out by the hero's journey.
What Joseph Campbell referred to as "the calling" is usually bad news of some kind. Something goes wrong in your life.
It could be anything from a divorce, to financial problems or an illness.
In a collective community, it could be a natural disaster, or a pandemic of some kind. Something happens that makes us realize that we need to go looking for new answers.
“Who looks outside, Dreams, who looks inside, awakens.”
~ Carl Jung

I grabbed it by the head, wrestled it and threw it down in the pit. I've walked through ancient halls full of snakes. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I know I have wings! I feel them! I been smoking since I was 8 yrs old. I'm just over 50 now. I use the breath to move energy. I reckon I'm healthier than many. I going full force soon. Because previously I been hiding my full true potential. What a wonder filled life experience.

Enki the annunaki created humans and taught as science and magic aswell as prometheus from greek mythology that stole the fire(knowledge) from zeus and gave it to us. Lucifier is the light bringer, prolly the same fire prometheus is holding. And the serpent gave us knowledge aswell.
