Stage 2: Initiation

As the Hero explores the unknown, they realize how little they know about themselves and the world. They begin to seek and understand the truth of reality — both internal and external.
This commitment leads to real change. The Hero evolves into a greater, deeper, more complete, and more balanced person.
After crossing the midpoint of self-transformation and facing their darkest fears, tests, and challenges, the Hero is ready. Now, they can return to the ordinary world with gifts, blessings, skills, talents, offerings, and achievements they have earned.
