Changing your own world

 


Camel trips do not begin or end,
they merely change form.”
— Robyn Davidson, Tracks

And, so again, I pulled The Knight of Swords. She's ready to do battle. She's a passionate warrior ready to do battle with whomever crosses her whether they deserve it or not. She's in no mood to be told what to do or what her place is. She knows what she must do. So, she sets off.

Is this the beginning or the end of her story? Is this a story about liberation from what held her back before, or is it a new quest? In response I am invoking the World. This world is the completion of the Fool's Journey. But, does the journey end, or does a journey begin?

At the end of Tracks, the book Robyn Davidson wrote about her own journey by camel across the Australian desert in 1977, Davidson concluded, "camel trips do not begin or end, they merely change form.”
