LEFT EYE: The Rebirth of the Hero

LEFT EYE reflects…

The Great Hero is dead. The Great Hero remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we, murderers of all murderers, console ourselves? That which was the holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet possessed has bled to death under our knives. Who will wipe this blood off us? With what water could we purify ourselves? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent? Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must we not ourselves become heroes simply to be worthy of it?

In The Rebirth of the HeroKeiron le Grice provides a path for the resurrection of heroism in us all. By guiding us through stages of the Hero’s Journey with a renewed emphasis on mystical awakening to the Self – collectively and individually – he leads us to and through a Heroic death.

On the other side of what he describes as a journey of Modern Self, he midwives a rebirth from egoic anxiety and existential crisis.

 

LEFT EYE, the lunar eye, the Eye of Horus, recieves and reflects. The archetypal bifurcation of the Solar and Lunar eyes–such as Ra’s and Horus’–span the mythic landscape. Where the Evil Eye beams out projections, the eye-breast recalls an inverted reflection: To see into existence is to nurse into being. This is the work of the lunar eye, of our LEFT EYE, to nurse, see and love towards greater fullness.
