On the Journey Home to the True Self: Big Ideas from Literature, Psychology, and the Enneagram

As a growth tool, the Enneagram of Personality provides a map of the human journey that leads from unconscious habit through a gradual process of self-liberation to a remembrance of the true, or higher, self. By exploring the metaphor of “the journey” in great works of literature and psychology, we will gain a deeper appreciation of how the Enneagram serves as a symbol of a pathway to higher consciousness. We will look to some of the big universal ideas behind epic stories and foundational theories of human growth to find inspiration—inspirational insights that can propel us on our own journeys and further our collective evolution as a human community.
