There is only one symbolic language - and that is used by dreams, creative imagination and myths. Myths depict the archetypal patterns in the drama of the psyche, the universal processes of life. The language of myths and dreams is simple and direct - but most have forgotten the art of interpretation. In this compilation, the author explores this oldest and most universal method of communication, drawing from the mythologies of the ancient world, Egypt, classical Greece and Rome, as well as the insights of psychology and the mystical traditions of the world's religions.
