Genderless Journey Models for a Modern World

The World Weaver
This website is under ongoing construction. New information and features added over time. Write to ( mark AT thinkspiritual DOT ca ) if you have questions about the Journey models.
This is going to be a very long-term project. I'm not the type of person that can crank out content week by week. It has to be slow. I promise some decent stuff will be here for your children to enjoy when they grow up.
The goal is to have an integrated, click-through Journey Tracker and maybe something animated and fun in the long-term future.
There is zero cost to the User. You don't have to join a mailing list, there is no hidden information you'll have to pay for later. The hope is that this website will be a tool you can use to aid you on your Journey and that it can be a legacy of sorts for myself.
I know the world is really crazy right now. There's a huge pushback on Awakening Consciousness from the Medieval Mind by the human egoic nature. Will it always be this way?
Self Awareness is the key to a better world for everyone. Self Awareness, Enlightened Mentors, looking less to external "answers" for our internal problems.
A better world is a long-term goal. Violence and forced-change is a short-term adjustment that always flips after a few decades.
For now, lessen your own suffering by creating your own personal boundaries and deal with your traumas. Recognize that your anger is only a mask for fear and pain that is preventing you from feeling the full gamut of your emotional core.
Journey inward, journey onward.

Why are New Journey models necessary?
Why are New Journey models necessary?
Questions I've typically come across during my time learning and teaching the Hero's and Heroine's Journeys:
"Do you believe the Hero's and Heroine's Journeys are misunderstood?"
Answer: Vastly so. They became so tangled up with gender that most people have missed the greater message behind each Journey.
"Is the Hero's Journey misogynistic?"
Answer: No
"Can women take the Hero's Journey?"
Answer: Yes, in modern societies it's actually become necessary for women to take the Hero's Journey.
"Can men take the Heroine's Journey?"
Answer: Yes
"Do men balk at being called Heroines and Princesses?"
Answer: Yes, men become little bitches when Feminine pronouns/nouns are placed upon them.
"Do Trans people need their own Journey?"
Answer: No.
"What about people of other genders?"
Answer: The Journeys should have never involved gender.
After years of studying and mapping the Hero's and Heroine's Journeys, I have decided that the simplest and best solution for every reason, concern, or question, is to remove Gender from the Journeys entirely. More on my reasons and process for doing so here: Why Create New Journey Models?
Thus, I hereby introduce the World Weaver's Journey and the Soul Diver's Journey. Genderless journey models for a modern world.
What is the World Weaver's Journey?
What is the World Weaver's Journey?
The entire purpose of the World Weaver’s Journey is to go out into the world, create your boundaries and choose your own path - because other people always try to push the Weaver to choose some existing path that they think you should be on.
What is the Soul Diver's Journey?
What is the Soul Diver's Journey?
The entire point of the Soul Diver’s Journey is to go down into your own internal depths, reignite your emotional center, revive your connection to Love, come to terms with your Trauma, and bring all that emotional, creative Energy back out into the World.

Don't get stuck on the beginning stages of these Journeys!
Don't get stuck on the beginning stages of these Journeys!
During my time studying and teaching the Hero's and Heroine's Journeys, I noticed that most people flocked to "The Call to Adventure", "Refusal of the Call", and "Supernatural Aid" and then the numbers would dwindle further into the Journeys.
If you are here, on this site, you are already far beyond the mere beginnings of these Journeys!
If you are here, on this site, you are already far beyond the mere beginnings of these Journeys!
The beginning steps are only there to tell you how you got to now. Trust me, you are not in them because you are already seeking beyond them.
Right now, since you are here, the most likely probability (other than pure curiosity) is that you are either "Standing in the Moonlight" of your Soul Diver's Journey OR "Standing on the Shoreline" of your World Weaver's Journey. You are on the cusp of Acceptance (healing Trauma) or of Overcoming (setting Boundaries).
If you turn away from Acceptance or Overcoming at this moment - which you may, and that is just fine, you'll be back - you'll enter back into the "Neverending War" or "Victim or Chosen One". These are the stages that our entire Western Society is caught in right now and you can stay caught with everyone else or you can take the difficult step and move forward.
Red Pill?
Blue Pill?
Have you considered not taking either pill?
