By looking to the past, for the age-old mythic traditions of the world provide all the advice we need about love, according to Michael Gurian. And the wisdom they offer is strikingly similar across cultures: a relationship must ultimately look beyond itself and be consciously accepted as a spiritual path. Gurian has drawn on a range of spiritual and mythic traditions to create the new model for relationship that he presents in his popular workshops. This model, called the \"Lover's Journey,\" consists of four distinct \"seasons\":  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e   1.  \u003ci\u003eThe Season of Enchantment: \u003c\/i\u003e the springtime of falling in love \u003cbr\u003e   2.  \u003ci\u003eThe Season of Awakening: \u003c\/i\u003e the summertime, when the euphoria of romance is past and we learn independent co-existence \u003cbr\u003e   3.  \u003ci\u003eThe Season of Partnership: \u003c\/i\u003e the autumn of maturity, when the fruits of our joint efforts can be enjoyed \u003cbr\u003e   4.  \u003ci\u003eThe Season of Nonattachment: \u003c\/i\u003e the winter of companionship, quietude, and the letting-go of old age\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003eMichael Gurian is the author of the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e best-seller \u003ci\u003eThe Wonder of Boys\u003c\/i\u003e (Tarcher, 1996).
