This series is informative and very inspiring. Creativity also depends on a mind that is fluid, mobile and open to inspiration and intuition. Reading myths opens up the mind and soul to the essential psychological patterns that shape our destiny. Touching these patterns, being familiar with their many guises and expressions, will help you conquer or exalt them in yourself. Another benefit of reading myths is enhancement to creative imagination.
Myths generate powerful visual images in the mind.
The practice of seeing visual imagery and participating in it is important to those involved in creative work. The art of embellishing the imagination can be increased with practice. Myths are rich in evocative images and rich in the feelings encouraged by these reflections. Most ancient myths portray Gods and Goddesses who performed miraculous feats and conquered insurmountable odds. We are reminded by these tales that we have within ourselves the same penchant to conquer ourselves.
