Slaying the Dragon: Atonement with the Father

Death by Stevee Portman (Cosmic Tribe Tarot, 1998)

“Atonement [with the father] consists in no more than the abandonment of that self-generated double monster—the dragon thought to be God (superego) and the dragon thought to be Sin (repressed id). But this requires an abandonment of the attachment to ego itself, and that is what is difficult.” -Campbell, J. (1949)

A heroine ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the heroine comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on her fellow woman. –Adapted from Joseph Campbell

What boon or gifts are you preparing to bestow on the world?
