That our lives are made up of and influenced by cycles of change and meaning has long been recognised and A Matter of Spirit reveals the potential we have for actively and consciously participating in generating positive outsomes not just in our own lives but in our relationships, communities and even on the world stage. Not just another astrology book, A Matter of Spirit is a well researched volume that offers us a way to uncover and investigate the meaning and significance of cycles in our lives - in particular the powerful forty-five year cycle of Saturn and Uranus. It examines the nature of the dance between social Saturn and transpersonal Uranus and explores the symbolic images and practical clues embedded in this potent cycle which raises its voice calling us to contribute wisely to the process of social change and to our individual and collective Awakening. In A Matter of Spirit the author delves into this energetic cycle from many perspectives - from mythology and archetypes, to astrological, psychological and spiritual, as well as including important, world changing historical, mundane and event oriented connections. The book provides examples of personal and collective experiences of each of the last four cycles of Saturn and Uranus. This work cleverly illustrates how to consciously use the astrology of this archetypal cycle as a compass to guide us, personally and collectively, to a more socially just, relevant, meaningful and spiritually fulfilling way of life.
