Happy 120th b-day to Joseph Campbell!

"As soon as you open the god and realize that he’s a personification of a power,
then *you yourself* open as another personification and vehicle of that power."

Zeus (Jupiter if you're Roman) isn't just the god of lightning! He's more like the god of the sky—but even that's misleading.

Some say he's exactly that feeling you get when you climb to the highest point, and look out on the land.

The sky is what orders the world, the good king orders the country, the good father orders the family, and consciousness orders the mind.

What all those things point to, THAT's Zeus.
