The Dark of the Soul - Psychopathology in the Horoscope

Liz Greene
The three seminars in this book use astrological perspectives to explore a spectrum of extreme
psychological states, from the condition known as psychopathy to the collective mechanism of
scapegoating as much a pathology as any diagnosed mental illness. Astrologers often avoid confronting
the issues of madness and human destructiveness, and political correctness has made it even more
difficult to face such issues honestly and without sentiment or hypocrisy. But only by exploring the
roots of what we call madness can we find any positive and creative approach to the mystery of why
some individuals fail to cope constructively with life 's challenges.
This book will sometimes shock and disturb, but it is an invaluable resource for any practicing
astrologer concerned with the dilemma of human suffering, and any lay person wishing to understand
how astrology can contribute to our comprehension of human behaviour.
