Stanislav Grof – Psyche & Cosmos

Access the wisdom of archetypal astrology to deepen your self-understanding and saturate your life with greater beauty, meaning and purpose.

Open to the hidden, sacred forces within your own psyche and strengthen your sense of belonging in a loving, ensouled universe.

When you register for Stan and Rick’s 8-module Psyche & Cosmos program, you’ll have a unique opportunity to explore this new paradigm and its implications.

You’ll discover how archetypal astrology is founded on the principle that planets have a fundamental, cosmically based influence on human existence.

Each planet corresponds to an archetypal dimension of consciousness — a deep pattern that “tilts” reality in a particular direction.

For instance, Saturn governs structure and connotes responsibility but also a form of constriction. Mars correlates with the movement of masculine energy and the impulse toward forceful activity, aggression and war.

In his research, Rick tracked patterns of upheaval that corresponded without fail to the movement of Uranus, which governs breakthroughs and periods of rapid change. For example, prior to the last time we experienced the Pluto Transit (that started in 2007 and ended in 2020) was from 1960 to 1972 — also a time of radical change, destructive energies, and abuse of political power.

On a collective basis, archetypal astrology reveals why certain periods are marked by crisis and others by great breakthroughs — and how the times we live in correlate with specific individual psychological qualities in a person’s natal chart.

The legendary Carl Jung told a friend that he had come to use astrology with every patient because there was no other means to provide that level of precision for understanding the archetypal dynamics of a given individual’s experience.

It’s been said that psychology textbooks of the future will look back on modern psychologists working without the aid of astrology as being like medieval astronomers working without the aid of the telescope.
