Infographic of Joseph Campbell's 17 Stages of The Monomyth or "Hero's Journey"

Since I apparently made today Infographic day here on the blog, I wanted to share this infographic of Joseph Campbell's 17 stages of The Monomyth or "Hero's Journey". I discovered it at Modern Mythology who credits The Royal Society of Account Planning. There's much afoot this year with the 25th anniversary of Campbell's death. But this post is just about the infographic since it makes a helpful tool or reminder for those of us who don't reference this everyday and sometimes need a refresher. Like me.
