About the Book



A fascinating exploration of the relationship between the human soul and the stars



Book Synopsis



The relationship between the human soul and the stars has been central to the spiritual and esoteric traditions of Western thought, and many other cultures, for thousands of years. Medieval Christians thought that heaven was located above the earth, beyond the stars. Our modern society, however, has largely severed the relationship between the human spirit and the sky.

This book explores ideas, beliefs and practices which meet at the boundary of psychology and cosmology, the universe and human imagination. This book addresses this special relationship from a variety of challenging and inspiring approaches.

The contributors include James Hillman, the founder of archetypal psychology and Jungian analyst; astrologer Liz Greene; Professor Neville Brown of Mansfield College, Oxford; Nicholas Pearson of the Temenos Academy; Professor Jarita Holbrook of the University of Arizona; Dr Angela Vos of the University of Kent; Bernadette Brady; Jules Cashford; Noel Cobb, the former editor of Sphinx; Cherry Gilchrist; Robert Hand; and Professor Richard Tarnas of the California Institute of Integral Studies.



Review Quotes




'Two conferences initiated by the Sophia Centre at Bath Spa University last year resulted in the publication of Sky and Psyche... in which astrologers and others reflect on the relationship between the human soul and the stars. Their intention was 'not to come up with conclusions but to exchange ideas'; they have succeeded admirably.'
- The Christian Parapsychologist

'The 12 chapters here each have the potential to inspire, depending on the reader's own contact with psyche. Those who see the sky as little more than a medium for cheap flights for escapist holidays are, sadly, unlikely to choose this book for aeroplane reading but if they did one might expect almost a human alchemical insight.'
- Northern Earth

'Complex ideas are presented not only with clarity but also as expressions of the numinous. Some sections were challenging, others almost read as poetry or as song. I loved this book because it has emerged from a different discipline, and has served to illumine my own as an artist, and has left me refreshed, uplifted and inspired.'
- Inner Light Magazine

'They are more than lectures. As the reader I can feel myself being personally addressed by the various contributors speaking out of professional and life experience... This book could be a rare, nourishing wellspring for life, for the amateur and professional soul carer.'
- Perspectives Magazine

'There is no doubt that its various authors have combined to create a book of considerable importance, and one that can be strongly recommended to astrologers, psychotherapists, and all who are concerned with trying to understand our place within the cycle and images of the world.'
- Correlation: Astrological Association Journal of Research in Astrology
