2024 October ”The Return”

Download and color the October 2024 Mandala of the Month

For 2024 I embarking on “A Journey Into Joy”…you’re welcome to come along with me. Each month I’ll be leading us through a modified version of the hero’s journey, as professed by Joseph Campbell.

My quest for this year is to work through all that is keeping me from my joy. I know it’s there and I intend to uncover it, one month at a time, once and for all.

Step 10 The Return With the “reward” in hand, it’s time to head home. But the journey isn’t over yet. It’s at this stage where we deal with the consequences of everything that has lead us to this point. The ordeal may have given us some version of success, but things have changed now. Perhaps some long-hidden, deeply repressed limiting beliefs or fears are sensing that we’re getting too close for comfort and they may put some added obstacles in our way. Whatever those are, we must face them before our journey is complete.

THE PROCESS

I’ll be coloring this mandala once a week throughout the month, l as a way to address “the refusal” in the different areas of my life that I wrote about for Step 1 (health, home, “The Mandala Lady”, and my purpose). I’ll be posting my colorings along with “my refusals” at the MandalaoftheWeek.com.

AN INVITATION

I invite you to color along with me this year on “A Journey Into Joy” with all of my “Mandalas of the ___” (day, week, month, year). If you’re interested in a more self-exploration approach to coloring, check out my “Coloring Mandalas as Meditation”.

Feel free to share your colorings on social media with the hashtag #2024MotM. I’d love to see them.
