Drawing on the work of Jung and Joseph Campbell’s exploration of myth, this program follows three Grail heroes—Lancelot (the Divided Heart), Galahad (the Way of Purity), and Parsifal (the Overcomer)—as archetypal guides through the soul’s transformative journey. Through the lens of the Grail legend, participants will encounter a symbolic map of what Jungians call individuation: the process of becoming one’s most authentic self. In this telling, the Grail is not an object to be possessed, but a call to service. The journey inward—through conflict, purification, and integration—becomes how one not only transforms oneself but contributes to the healing of the world.
