Introduction: Sky and Psyche - Heaven and Soul - Nicholas Campion - Director ; Sophia Centre, Bath Spa University - the chapters in this book are based on lectures delivered at two conferences held in Bath on May 1 and July 1-2, 2005, respectively: "The Alchemical Sky" and "Sky and Psyche."
Quotations
In the Enneads, Plotinus quotes Sophocles' blind Oedipus at Colonus: 'All the place is holy', adding, 'and there is nothing without a share of soul.' Plotinus is unamgibuous on this: 'For there never was a time when this universe did not have a soul, or when body existed in the absense of soul, or when matter was not set in order.'

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0863155669, Paperback)

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 and 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.

Contributors include:

  • James Hillman, a founder of archetypal psychology and a Jungian analyst
  • Liz Greene, astrologer and Jungian analyst
  • 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, a professional consulting and teaching astrologer
  • Jules Cashford, a Jungian analyst
  • Noel Cobb, the author of Archetypal Imagination and former editor of Sphinx
  • Cherry Gilchrist, a specialist in mythology, wisdom traditions, history. and culture
  • Robert Hand, an astrologer
  • Professor Richard Tarnas, a cultural historian and professor of philosophy and psychology of the California Institute of Integral Studies
