“In ancient Greece, when you left the confines of your safe, cozy community, there were signs posted that said, if you go beyond this sign then you are sacer – you are on your own, without the protection of the community. Sacred, which derives from the word sacer, subsequently came to mean autonomous journeying beyond conventional boundaries. To journey into the sacred is a solo act of defiance.” – Caroline W. Casey, Making the Gods Work for You.
