A defining contribution to the fields of archetypal astrology, The Way of the Archetypes is Keiron Le Grice's masterly, four-volume study of the place of archetypes-universal principles and powers-in our lives. Laying the foundation for the astrological analysis to follow in volumes II to IV, in this first volume Le Grice illuminates the experience and function of the major Jungian archetypes, mapping these and other psychodynamic principles onto the pantheon of planets in astrology. He explains how an astrological understanding of archetypes can be invaluable for skillfully participating with the energies of the cosmos and navigating the different dimensions of what Carl Gustav Jung called the individuation process, leading to the discovery of life meaning, psychological transformation, and spiritual realization. Amidst the turbulence and confusion of our time, he proposes, "a deep engagement with the archetypes, mediated by astrology, can become a way of life, and a vehicle for the revelation of the mysteries of the psyche and the spirit.".
