About the Book

Tom Billinge's works Undying Glory: The Solar Path of Greek Heroes and Age of Heroes: Beyond the Solar Path each delve into Greek mythology and the archetype of the hero. Within this context, Orpheus emerges as another significant figure - a hero whose influence permeated both mythic and spiritual realms of ancient Greek culture. Orpheus also embodies a unique version of the hero, distinct from more traditional warriors like Hercules, Achilles, and Odysseus. Orpheus' heroism is chiefly defined by his artistic talents, and in turn the ability to inspire and enrapture. This ecstatic quality placed him at the center of ancient Greece's culture of sacred initiation expressed in its "mysteries." The Orphic Mysteries in particular emphasized profound themes such as death, rebirth, and the soul's journey. Unlike other mystery lineages, the Orphic originated from a tradition of virile warrior rites. Though tempered in its later forms, the archaic remnants leave clues for seekers to follow on a journey of Return. As an archetypal Indo-European shamanic initiator, Orpheus guides aspirants of the Mysteries on their heroic spiritual quest. WRITTEN BY TOM BILLINGE This latest literary venture by Tom Billinge is an exploration into the enigmatic world of Orphism, promising to unravel a secret tradition and mythos that for millennia has fascinated scholars, mystics, and seekers. In Return to Hyperborea, Billinge takes us beyond the veil of our known world to explore teachings and rituals associated with the legendary Orpheus, delving into tales intertwining the historical and mythical, illuminating a path to enlightenment these mysteries showed initiates. Through immersive writing and deep research, the author breathes life into obscure philosophies and practices that shaped the spiritual landscape of ancient Greece. Building on the success of previous works in his celebrated "Heroes of Greek Myth" series, Billinge again showcases his unparalleled ability to blend mythological insight with engaging narrative. His preceding books - which captivated readers with vivid mythic retellings - set the stage for this latest volume, further solidifying his reputation as a master storyteller and maverick thinker.
