Myths Retold
Ancient stories are vividly retold with digital art, drawing from primary sources like Ovid, Homer, and Greek playwrights. The aim is to present narratives that engage readers and encourage personal interpretation of their meaning.
Myth As The Model
We explore Joseph Campbell’s idea of myths as maps for understanding the universe. By applying a myth to a chosen context, we examine its modeled actions, draw insights, and explore how its wisdom may be applied today.
Motifs and Symbols
Ancient stories are rich with symbols, some forgotten or altered over time. Exploring and cataloguing them expands our symbolic vocabulary, enriching mythic appreciation and enabling the unconscious psyche to communicate more effectively through imagination.

Musings
ABOUT MYTH MEETS MODERN
My name is Kylie and this blog, Myth Meets Modern, contains my personal musings about ancient Greek mythology.
I believe that myths are not just stories, but models—models for finding meaning; for living harmoniously; for understanding nature, including our own natures; for navigating practical challenges and opportunities; for connecting with the inner self; for contemplating cosmic forces and principles, seen and unseen.
If that's too deep, myths are also rollicking good tales of gods, monsters and heroes!
