Reply To: The Power of the Personal,” with Mythologist Dennis Slattery, Ph.D.”
Shaheda; your questions to Dennis should be very interesting and helpful for I’m not familiar with the inside out sleeve reference you mentioned.
However; I should add concerning my cross references between the Spiral and the Labyrinth with the Ariadne thread was related to the important floor depiction of Chartres Cathedral that is used as a meditative device. This can be a very large topic and I should have been a lot more specific. Although not a true Spiral per se; in this particular case it represents a metaphoric inward spiritual journey often referred to in spiritual pilgrimages. Joseph loved Chartres and spent much time there which he talks about in his conversations with Bill Moyers in “The Power of Myth”. This link shows other Labyrinths as well.
