Hi everyone. I'm Josh, and this is The Emerald,

currents and trends through a mythic lens. The podcast where we explore an ever-changing world

and our lives in it through the lens of myth, story, and imagination.

Thank you. lives in it through the lens of myth, story, and imagination.

The Emerald. All that's happening on this green jewel in space. Hey everyone. So before I get started, I want to tell you about an upcoming Zoom course that I'm going to be offering.

It's a four-part course, and it's called cultivating mythic vision for mythic times.

And if you've been listening recently, you know that this is a theme

that I've been talking about, that these are mythic times that what we're faced with are mythic

challenges. And in these mythic times, it can be very helpful to explore on a deeper level what we

are called to do, what we are longing for, and what the myths have to teach us about what is

required of us in such mythic times.

It's going to be a four-part series. There are going to be visual components, lecture components,

discussion, question and answer components. It's going to take place the first four Thursdays in

September, but it's also going to be available. If you sign up for the course and then can't

make it to any of the live sessions, it'll be available. If you sign up for the course and then can't make it to any of the

live sessions, it'll be available in recorded format as well. So I'm really hoping that you'll join,

and if you're interested in joining or in finding out more, you can send me an email at

josh.sh-sh-R-E-I at g-mail.com. That's j-o-s-h-d-S-C-H-R-E-I at g-mail.com.

And I can send you more information and a link to sign up and all that good stuff.

So cultivating mythic vision for mythic times,

understanding the core experiential and transformational themes of myth

and their applicability now.
