Living the Path of the Mystic Amidst the Mysteries

Transmuting life lessons via the examples given in the Mysteries is the essence of alchemy and mysticism. Without any external help it is a challenge to see the symbols of the mysteries embedded within one’s life, yet they are there, everywhere, all around and within if one but has the awareness to pierce through what is apparent for what is hidden behind the veil. As in anything there are ups and downs and the downtime when living a spiritual life that seeks commune with God through the Mysteries, known as the Desert or Dark Night of the Soul can last a lifetime. But if the labyrinth is successfully navigated, eventually the hero does battle with the Minotaur and slays the beast within to emerge victorious, remade, fresh, renewed, spiritually reborn.

 

This episode completes the telling of my tale from start to finish from the first experience that began this season to the most recent experiences that were summarized at the start of the first season of the podcast. Journey further down this rabbit hole and learn the symbols I perceived in my life so that you may look for them or similar within your own if you are wandering through the Dark Night of the Soul in your own spiritual journey.
