Maps of Meaning - Season 1 Episode 9 The Hero's Descent
In lecture nine, we turn to the archetypal patterns of gods and goddesses emerging from chaos, with the feminine principle bifurcating into destructive and benevolent aspects of nature, and the masculine principle dividing into tyrannical and wise forms of order. We examine the hero's journey through Egyptian mythology, particularly the story of Horus, who battles corruption, descends to restore vision to tradition, and establishes a dynamic unity between the exploratory spirit and established order. Dr. Peterson also weaves in the Christian crucifixion as the ultimate symbol of voluntary self-sacrifice in service of the highest good, arguing that this principle forms the foundation of peaceful and abundant societies.
