yes, that Campbell book has been calling out to me for some time :)
I also have, or started to have as an artist in college my own visual symbols which is different...but I wonder how much pulled from the sub and cosmic consciousness - which is why most art can be understood by almost all people who are open to it even though they may not be able to express their understanding verbally.
have you ever wondered about doodles? like for example when I was in shcool couldn't sit through lectures without doodling and then on the phone before there were cordless phones and I could walk around doing things at the same time I would doodle. The same things would be in my doodles always ( and frequently for a lot of people I think: like spiral, pointed jagged line, ladder, sun.
I always doodled. As a kid I drew roses (ironically, the rose is the symbol for my matron saint, St. Theresa), spirals, five and six sided stars and this symbol (which I later saw on Led Zeppelin 4 when I was a teenager): http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/Bible/New%20King%20James%20Bible/nkjv44.gif
I remember reading a book from a library once about the significance of the symbols of doodles. I looked but I couldn't find any decent doodle tests/quizes on line. ;)
