“Psychological astrology has, like the old Roman god Janus, a double face. It can provide a surgical scalpel which cuts through to the underlying motives, complexes, and family inheritance which lie behind the manifest problems and difficulties which the individual faces; and it can also provide a lens through which can be viewed the teleology and purpose of our conflicts in context of the overall meaning of the individual's journey.”

“An archetype can be defined as a mental representation of an instinct. (...) We are already born with an image of mother, an image of that archetype; and we are already born with an image of father, an image of birth, an image of growth, an image of death, etc. But different people have slightly different images of these archetypal phenomena.”

“This word “individuality” is used a great deal these days, often to describe behaviour which runs against the collective norm. But we are using it here to describe a loyalty to one's own unique nature—an embrace of all the characters in the play. Individuality costs, as T.S. Eliot once wrote, nothing less than everything, and many are understandably not prepared to pay the price of the internal freedom they claim they want.”

“The lunar light which lures us back toward regressive fusion with mother and the safety of the uroboric container is also the light which teaches us how to relate, to care for ourselves and others, to belong, to feel compassion. (...) The solar light which leads us into anxiety, danger and loneliness is also the light which instructs us in our hidden divinity and—as Pico della Mirandola put it in the 15th century—our right to be proud co-creators of God's universe.”
