Inside the Cosmic Mind

The following is the blurb from the back cover of Inside the Cosmic Mind  which my publisher wrote. For me, it is a good introduction to what the book is all about. Inside the Cosmic Mind: Archetypal Astrology and the new Cosmology presents a radical new approach to astrology in the light of the emerging worldview known as archetypal cosmology. In this book Phoebe explores the roots of this cosmology in the wisdom of the ancient Egyptian mysteries, then follows these ideas to modern times through Jung’s ideas on the nature of the psyche. In doing so she discovers that astrology is entirely compatible with the claims of the new cosmological thinking as envisioned by post-modern physics and chaos theory. She goes on to propose that the mathematical basis of astrology and the components of astrological charts are both psychological and cosmic in their scope. And she argues that the twelve astrological archetypes make up one single cosmic mind whose patterns are imprinted on all o...

Review of Inside the Cosmic Mind: Archetypal Astrology and the New Cosmology by Phoebe Wyss, by Anne Whitaker “ Like everyone else who has taken time out to study astrology in depth, I know it delivers…though I was never able to explain how it works, which left me helplessly wrong-footed…so in 2005 I started out on a quest to find the answer to this mystery, and this book is a record of the path I took, and of the unexpected places it led me.” I have recently finished Phoebe Wyss’ account of her quest, and have to say right away that I loved this book, which has already begun to inform my own astrology teaching to which I have recently returned after a very long break. The opening quote certainly applies to my relationship with astrology which began in 1980. I have a life-long interest in science and have been fascinated for a very long time by what I could grasp of the contingent, bizarre and paradoxical reality which quantum physics has been revealing to us throughout...

Inside the Cosmic Mind: Archetypal Astrology and the New Cosmology by Phoebe Wyss By  Agnes Liebhardt Published in Osho News ( http://www.oshonews.com/2014/11/inside-the-cosmic-mind/ ) Ever since humans began observing the skies and interpreting planetary movements, the relevance of astrology as an essential component of our cosmology has been debated by laymen and professionals alike. Phoebe Wyss’ book, Inside the Cosmic Mind, brings a refreshing new viewpoint to this debate. Weaving together the strands of history, mythology, quantum physics and Jungian psychology, Wyss proposes that astrology should rightly be considered a significant contributor to the currently emerging scientific paradigm of the 21st century. Reading this book feels like time travel, though not always in chronological sequence. We get to revisit and explore cultural components of ancient Egypt and Greece , Newtonian physics, 20th century scientific advances, art, architecture, psychology and variou...
