Three stars is I respect Meade and there is some gold here
And I want more people to explore the topic.
But this book badly needs editing. Seriously. Meade is great, but he rambles on and on, which is really disappointing because this had th potential to be a great book.

Maybe the writing of a preface, to introduce the thesis and basic concepts of the book, would be helpful for readers who are less familiar with archetypes and the mythology.

My resolve to allow the best in me to come forth . It gave me the courage and encouragement I needed to move closer to myself.
