| The
View: Mind over Matter,
Heart over Mind: from Arthur Conan Doyle to Conversations with God.
29 contributors led by Neale Donald Walsch (Author), Peter Russell (Author), Ervin Laszlo (Author), Dorothy Maclean (Author), Conan Doyle biographer Owen Dudley Edwards (Author), educationalist Roger Straughan (Author), Ruth Hadikin (Author), Anya Sophia Mann (Author), Dave Patrick (Editor) Essays by twenty-nine authors on the spiritual future of humankind. From Conan Doyles Spiritualism and the subsequent years of new age thought into the developments likely to take humanity into an entirely new era. In 1919 Sir Arthur Conan Doyle published a call to the world to take up the challenges presented to it and enter upon a new age. He called his book THE VITAL MESSAGE and it marks the beginning of a movement often called the 'new age' . Today, many new age thinkers have been drawn imaginatively to the year 2012, for it is the moment at which one of the great achievements of civilization, the Mayan calendar, simply comes to an end. Rather than think of 2012 as an end date, however, it is probably best to think of it as a new beginning - and an opportunity for todays thinkers to review the new age with its vital message and ask "Just how far along our road have we come?" |

| Soul Astrology Books Recommended by Ruth... | |||
| Before moving toward Soul Astrology one is advised to have a thorough understanding of conventional Astrology. This classic text by the world's leading Soul Astrologer Alan Oken provides a thorough foundation for anyone wanting to learn Astrology. | A thorough
guide to interpreting horoscopes from a Soul Centered perspective. Another classic from the world's foremost Soul Astrologer, Alan Oken. |
Written by one of my mentors, Errol Weiner. A fortuitous meeting with him at Scotland's Findhorn community, led me to return to Astrology, after many years. This time with a Soul focus. Errol is knowledgeable, and passionate about Soul Astrology, and Full Moon meditations, as a key part of our spiritual journey. He is a wise and generous teacher. | Alice Bailey's classic text "Esoteric Astrology". Written as part of the 'treatise on the seven rays' this work was the result of a telepathic communication between AB and "The Tibetan" (Master DK) At the time of writing it was said that humanity didn't have the cnsciousness to comprehend it, and it would take Astrologers of the future to interpret it's full meaning. |
| "The Labours of Hercules" - an astrological interpretation by Alice Bailey, gives a vivid account of the journey of the soul as it incarnates progressively through the twelve signs of the Zodiac. The labours that Hercules is required to perform symbolise the specific challenges that face all disciples as they seek to equip themselves to better serve their fellow human beings. | Even
though the author disagrees on the importance of the Ascendant (which
is of primary significance in Soul Astrology) His descriptions of the
planets in the houses are very accurate, appropriate and useful when
reading charts from a spiritual perspective. Just remember to add the Ascendant back into the equation! |
As humanity evolves in consciousness, more of 'all that is' is revealed to us, and we are given exactly what we need for our spiritual growth. As we begin to interpret astrology from a spiritual perspective factors such as Chiron, and it's meaning for us as individuals, become increasingly relevant. | Another classic, as Stephen Arroyo shares deep insights into the planets of transformation, and their role in our spiritual development. |
