Workshop 2 of 3: a beautiful ancient myth revealing the journey of the soul, the nature of love and the transformative power of inner trials

For thousands of years, myths have helped human beings understand dimensions of life that the rational mind alone struggles to grasp—love, death, destiny, transformation and the mystery of existence. Great philosophers such as Plato used myths to express profound philosophical truths, while their archetypal patterns continue to inspire modern stories such as The Lord of the Rings and Star Wars.

Spread across three evenings, this workshop series explores the universal language of myth and symbolism, revealing how ancient myths can illuminate our inner life, deepen our understanding of ourselves and others, and offer practical wisdom for meeting life's challenges. Tickets on this event listing are for Workshop 2 on 29 September.
