Book 23: Reunited with Penelope


After Odysseus conquered the suitors, Penelope was called down from her room to meet with him.  
She saw her husband, but feared it to be a trick. Penelope tells Odysseus that they will need to move
her bed, but he tells her that the bed can not be moved because it was built from the trunk of an olive
tree that the house was built around.  Penelope knows at that moment that it is not a trick and Odysseus
has truly returned. They sit together and Odysseus finally has the opportunity to tell Penelope of his
adventures.

Working Method: Free Writing

From the beginning of this work, we have taken several times to reflect upon and share our journeys.
As we near the end of this odyssey, we will take one final opportunity to share your story. Enter a light
trance in your preferred method. Once in a trance state, write out any stories or feelings you wish to share.
You may re-share your story from the beginning of this practice, or share your impression of this journey
that you've taken. The choice is yours. Simply listen to the voices inside and write whatever you feel
inspired to note.
