In art such as literature and film, the Threshold Guardian is a common archetype or trope in a classic and prevalent narrative: the hero’s journey. This can be found anywhere from Homer\u2019s Odyssey<\/em> to The Wizard of Oz to Black Panther.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In real life we can embark on our own heroine’s quest to obtain what I call your Vision of Success<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next time you are feeling afraid to continue or even embark on your heroine\u2019s quest consider this! The heroine encounters a “threshold guardian” at the entrance to the zone of magnified power. This guardian stands in the way of the heroine moving on to the next level!<\/p>\n\n\n\n


In literature, the Threshold Guardian’s job is to ensure the protagonist is worthy of passing the threshold, and thus they act as part of the tests the protagonist must face in the journey. A heroine who depends on her strength might attempt to overcome Threshold Guardians, while a heroine who depends on her wits might evade, bribe, learn from and even convert the Guardians to her cause. Needless to say, running away from a Threshold Guardian is not a successful way of dealing with one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
