<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Explores the astrological significance of Eris, a new dwarf planet in our solar system.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In astrology, each planet in our solar system is symbolically associated with specific archetypes, characteristics, themes and patterns in human experience. The discovery in 2005 of Eris -- a dwarf planet beyond Pluto -- was therefore an event of great significance for astrology as well as astronomy.</p> <p>In this unique book, Keiron Le Grice considers the astrological significance of Eris. How, he asks, can we determine Eris's meaning? What archetypal themes is it associated with? In what ways might the myths of Eris, the Greek goddess of strife, be relevant to the astrological meaning? What can Eris's discovery tell us about the evolutionary challenges we now face?</p> <p>Drawing on a wide variety of perspectives -- including mythology, ecology, religion, history, philosophy and Jungian psychology -- Le Grice carefully constructs a multi-faceted picture of Eris's possible meaning, helping to illuminate the unprecedented events of our time and providing clues to our possible future directions.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'This book is a pleasure to read because it is so well-written. It has an elegance of style, lucid rationality of argument and the breadth of historical, philosophical and pycho-spiritual understanding... A must for your bookshelf!'<br />- The Astrological Journal </p> <p>'Written in a style both accessible and engaging, Le Grice displays an impressive multi-disciplinary reach, drawing with equal competence from the sciences and psychology, from mythology and world history. Though focused on the meaning of Eris, the book also serves as a lucid introduction to the new field of archetypal cosmology. At the same time, given his central hypothesis, the reader is presented with a series of illuminating insights having to do with the evolution of consciousness and this current, critical phase of the Planetary Era.'<br />- Sean Kelly, author of <em>Coming Home: The Birth and Transformation of the Planetary Era</em></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Keiron Le Grice is founding editor of Archai: The Journal of Archetypal Cosmology and the author of The Archetypal Cosmos: Rediscovering the Gods in Myth, Science and Astrology (Floris Books, 2010).
