“Anything is possible for women as we find our voice, honor our identity, work together for a common goal, and stand unapologetically with our arms wide open to the skies in a stance of pride and acknowledgment of the sacredness of the feminine.” (from the preface to the 30th anniversary edition)
The Heroine’s Journey describes contemporary woman’s search for wholeness in a society where she has been defined according to masculine values. Drawing on cultural myths and fairy tales, ancient symbols and goddesses, and the dreams of contemporary women, Murdock illustrates the need for — and the reality of — feminine values in Western culture. This special anniversary edition, with a new foreword by Christine Downing and preface by the author, illuminates that this need is just as relevant today as it was when the book was originally published 30 years ago.

I will make it my life’s goal to get as many people to read it as possible. I’ve never learned so much, so fast, about the deep wounds the feminine soul of humanity has suffered for thousands of years, and how painful it is to recover that aspect in all of us - yet immensely important that we do so.
I am a man, and this helped me understand parts of me I never understood, but also parts of all the women in my life.
It deepens my love and respect for the strong women I’ve had in my life, and only hope to set my daughter out on the path of The Heroine’s Journey.
