Transpersonal Theory and the Astrological Mandala

Jorge N. Ferrer, author of Revisioning Transpersonal Theory: A Participatory Vision of Human Spirituality

The posthumously published "Transpersonal Theory and the Astrological Mandala: an Evolutionary Model" offers a transpersonal synthesis-an account of history, culture and consciousness mapped in terms of the deep dialectical logic of the astrological mandala. In this comprehensive work Goddard makes a substantial contribution toward establishing a firm theoretical foundation for astrology. His explication of astrology's foundational symbols in terms of the larger cultural conversation will help astrology take its rightful place in the new paradigm debates while his model, an interface of the transpersonal and the astrological, will stand as a confirmation of the concrete unity of cosmos, body, psyche and spirit beyond mere subjective constructivism.
