There is a big difference between reading a book published by an astrologer (a person who does only astrology as a profession) and a book published by a psychologist about astrology. Not that that is so unusual these days, for Stephen Arroyo is one of those in that league who have gained worldwide fame, but still. When you start reading 'Cosmos and Psyche' you have no idea where the book will lead you, for there is no mention of astrology until page 62 and the sub-chapter of 'The Archetypal Cosmos.' It is really interesting how this book is set about for it reflects how the author came about astrology, developmentally. It was through Jung and the archetypes. This is an approach I love for it reflects an honest search for truth, not just a cathedral monograph about 'astrology' from an insider perspective. Why was Leonardo so convincing in his Notebooks? Because he was never an insider, he scrutinized everything from out-of-the-box. This is Tarnas' approach, an approach that requires great analytical and synthetic genius, great courage also (and when you see how Ken Wilber sentenced Tarnas to death, you know what I am talking about) and great patience for it's an intense and enduring labor. The admiration I have for this man is limitless, he is one of the greatest psychological geniuses of our time, and also a very good pedagogue for his books are written without jargon and are accessible for a wide public. Thank you for sharing this important interview with him!
This is a great summary of his greatness -- the outsider approach that never gets close enough to consider anything sacred. the root of what science really is. I didn't know Ken Wilber had beef with Tarnas, gotta research that. Because Ken writes like he's solved the cosmos yet doesn't seem to have grappled with astrology, I've found it hard to get into any of his writing
I very much enjoyed your fresh and sophisticated commentary on Mr. Tarnas's genius. Didn't know about Ken Wilber's attacks on him! Now I don't feel bad for not finishing any of Ken's books! My best.
I have just finished reading 'Cosmos and Psyche' and I can only say it's one of the few books that have impressed me so deeply that I took a decision to pursue further study. Not that I am new to astrology, in fact I study it since high school times, but … I have a big lacuna, having specialized on karmic astrology, the Moon Nodes analysis, and character analysis, and totally overlooked to care for studying the transits. And here I see the strength of Tarnas' book. The transits are so important in that they are real-time events that are ongoing in our lives, and the life of our societies and cultures, and they activate or deactivate constellations in our birth chart, or the chart of nations. That is why they are so important, and therefore this book was a wake-up call for me to study transits and also the progressed chart, so as to get into a more dynamic fashion of dealing with astrology. Birth chart reading being certainly important, it's a rather limited manner of accessing the truth of the developmental pathway of a person or a nation. Thank you Richard Tarnas, for this book of real genius that I will shortly review on Amazon!
Sorry to be so off topic but does anybody know a tool to get back into an instagram account?? I was dumb lost the password. I would love any tips you can offer me.
The conjunction in the 60's (btwn Uranus and Pluto) was in Virgo, hence the evolutionary adjustment to the legacy of slavery, etc., (Slavery a shadow manifestation of the service rendered by Virgo) - hence the civil rights element to the conjunction. Which paved the way, obviously, for our current square.
@@vinayseth1114 BLM and sick feminists.. a sick cycle is back, so if people won’t wake up.. will be a cycles of just disasters all over 😡.. it is really too much how this young generation is destroying themselves
Would love to hear from his brilliance on where we are today. It occurs the moral pendulum is swinging the wrong direction...what is true with the planets? Give us the good, bad and ugly...generally speaking. Thank you...
I’m in astrologer of 25 years though I’m also kindergarten teacher so my brain is simple-ish no I am very smart. I could not get over how many big words he used so often that I’ve given up the concepts are too big and he’s not simplifying his book enough. Raised to be a whole bunch of webinars explaining simply like kindergarten level for all those people that would like to know what that books about. Just not simple enough at all
I'm very superstitious and believe in receiving signs from the universe or universal mind. In fact only a few days ago my wife said two objects spontaneously fell of her bedside table. I interpreted this as meaning to be very careful. Driving the car in the park I took extra care making a maneuver and could have had an accident with a cyclist had I not checked my blind spots.
Our entire media culture is conditioned by the smart or stupidity or the people who interview our genius writers and artists. This present interview is not bad because Richard Tarnas made the best out of the completely insignificant and even irrelevant questions. But imagine only … if an intelligent journalist had led this interview, what we could have learnt about the genius of this writer and psychologist … instead we go home with the usual frust… knowing that we are the slaves of the slaves, as we are depending on the journalists who are depending on the producers who are depending on the advertisers who fund the whole thing. What a moron culture this is … and how do you think it can ever reflect the genius of the people it features on television?
I think we have good examples now of the differing manifestations of Conjuctions versus oppositions. The Saturn Pluto alignment. September 11, 2001 attacks occurred during the opposition. This reflects a tension in the relationships between two large clashing cultures (foreign/Pluto in Sagittarius). So it was very external as oppositions tend to be. Now, in 2019, we have the conjunction of Saturn and Pluto, and the emphasis is on tie “very close” even secret relationship, just as shocking, that between Trump and Russia/ Putin. One deals with great distance of cultures, one with an underlying, nefarious proximity.
Im a Scientist. Ill try and be nice. Atleast we are open minded. I will leave my biases at the door, as any intellectually honest person should . If you dont think you could be wrong, you are probably just reinforcing your unscientific biases. Lets hope not that many people here are lacking healthy skepticism..
I am sorry but I try so hard to listen to him, patiently but he keeps rambling on endlessly without much deep content. He could benefit deeply from shortening his responses in my humble opinion.
The implications of planets altering the human experience in any meaninful way are often nonsense......what makes YOU so certain your idea of what the cosmos around you is altering is correct.....? You have very little basis for your beliefs. This seems ridiculous...im going to get this book to see if there is ANY bearing to what he is saying....
You may want to read the book BEFORE posting a reply as if you know what it says. I think that might be a little more in alignment with the scientific method. :)

Which book on transits you recommend? Thank u

milk butcher & the supple lush Me too. Ken Wilber is SoOoo full of himself, there's no room for me.

What a profound insight! So intriguing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
He reminds me so much of Christoph Waltz!
Many thanks for posting!
History repeats itself

word
What's the conjunction today and how is it shaping the world?

Hi friend. He recorded a talk about 2024 you can watch here: ruclips.net/video/T3iFByo83aQ/видео.html

If you want more succinct astrology try Vedic astrology.
Yes, try Vedic-also we can always continue to learn and grow by developing our listening skills and attention span
Google his chart and check the synastry with yours. Could be interesting...😊😎
