Awakening:"...the human adventure is a wandering through the vale of the world for the sake of making soul. Our life is psychological, and the purpose of life is to make psyche of it, to find connections between life and soul." James Hillman "Re-Visioning Psychology, pg. xv

"But what if life is the perfect expression of our own soul nature meeting the field of everything, meeting the free space in which divinity has allowed us to express ourselves? Essentially, we meet our own karma out there in the world. We meet the products of our own life and energy." Mark Jones, The Mountain Astrologer, Aug./Sept. 2016, page 45

"... human beings do not earn free will except through self-discovery, and they do not attempt self-discovery until things become so painful that they have no other choice." Liz Greene, "Saturn, A New Look at and Old Devil" pg. 11

Grief:"Within the silence that follows the final breath of a dying person is the certainty that something is occurring. In the no moving movement of air in the room one senses a deep, deep loneliness and at the same time the connectedness of everything." Robert Chodo Campbell, "Death is not an Emergency," Tricycle, fall 2016

"Saturn symbolizes a psychic process as well as a quality or kind of experience. He is not merely a representative of pain, restrictions and discipline; he is also a symbol of the psychic process, natural to all human beings, by which an individual may utilize the experiences of pain, restriction, and discipline as a means for greater consciousness and fulfillment. Psychology has demonstrated that there is within the individual psyche a motive or impulsion toward wholeness and completeness." Liz Greene, "Saturn: A New Look at and Old Devil"
