The Planets Within

Author: Thomas Moore

ISBN: 9780940262287
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 236

Book Description
The Planets Within asks us to return to antiquity with new eyes. It centers on one of the most psychological movements of the prescientific age -- Renaissance Italy, where a group of 'inner Columbuses' charted territories that still give us today a much- needed sense of who we are and where we have come from, and the right routes to take toward fertile and unexplored places.Chief among these masters of the interior life was Marsilio Ficino, presiding genius of the Florentine Academy, who taught that all things exist in soul and must be lived in its light. This study of Ficino broadens and deepens our understanding of psyche, for Ficino was a doctor of soul, and his insights teach us the care and nurture of soul.Moore takes as his guide Ficino's own fundamental tool -- imagination. Respecting the integrity and autonomy of images, The Planets Within unfolds a poetics of soul in a kind of dialogue between the laconic remarks of Ficino and the need to give these remarks a life and context for our day.

Planets in Play

Author: Laurence Hillman
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101216018
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 352

Book Description
Planets in Play is the first foundational book that lets the reader reimagine his or her inner life through the self-exploratory language of astrology. Author Laurence Hillman-a widely respected astrologer with a loyal following and a formidable online presence-reconnects the planets with the character traits given them by the ancients. Whether one accepts astrology as being "real," its language and concepts can go a long way toward helping us see the archetypes that play on our lives. In observing the strengths, weaknesses, and character traits of each planet and zodiac sign, readers will receive a toolbox filled with instruments with which to newly understand their lives. The reader will then be able to make more conscious choices about how he or she is living out these different aspects. To that end, Hillman provides specific tactics and highly practical ideas of how to expressly nourish or minimize these tendencies through choice of behavior, lifestyle, and personal surroundings. Case examples, stories, and anecdotes run throughout the book to demonstrate and ease this process. In its appendices, Planets in Play provides a guide in how to get a quality astrological reading, with an emphasis on one's dominant archetypes. In addition, Hillman offers a basic grounding in astrology for those readers, therapists, or counselors who wish to learn how the ancient art works at a psychological level without necessarily committing themselves to its study.

Inside Planets

Author: Ellias Lonsdale
Publisher: North Atlantic Books
ISBN: 1556432127
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 329

Book Description
For centuries, spiritual seekers have turned to astrology to discover humans' deepest connections with the Earth and the cosmos. But too often, astrology devolves into meaningless clich's or impersonal newspaper horoscopes. In the early part of this century Marc Edmund Jones and Dane Rudhyar liberated astrology from the fatalistic approach of the medieval world. They took power from the high-and-mighty archaic planet gods, and offered it back to human beings. Here, at the end of the century, Inside Planets goes further, invoking each planet as a mighty full-bodied organism with a character and a soul of its own, a living breathing force with passion and humor and purpose that changes as it moves through the houses and signs. Each planet grabs you by the imagination and drags you to the campfire of The Greatest Story Even Told. Far more than an astrology guide, this book resuscitates from the ancient mystery temples of Atlantis an elegant and inspiring pantheon of wonder, terror, and creative solution to the problems that plague the soul.
