About the Card
The Return marks the final stage of the Hero's Journey, where they return to the Ordinary World with newfound knowledge, wisdom, and experiences from the Special World. This can be a challenging time for the Hero, as they may find it difficult to reintegrate into their old life after the transformational journey they've been through.
The Return is often marked by a sense of duality, as the Hero is torn between their desire to share their experiences and newfound knowledge with others, and the feeling of being misunderstood or even rejected. Others may not be able to understand or relate to the Hero's journey, which can lead to feelings of isolation and disconnection.
However, the Return is also a time of celebration and acknowledgement of the Hero's accomplishments. The Hero has overcome great obstacles and has returned to the Ordinary World with a sense of purpose and a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.
