The Seven Gates of Soul

A veteran philosopher and astrologer traces a fascinating 6000-year history of ideas about the soul. Using the ancient Mesopotamian myth of the goddess Inanna as a metaphor, the author explores the conceptual barriers to a true understanding of soul erected by religion, philosophy, science, and psychology. Along the way, he outlines a poetic approach to astrology that transcends these barriers and fosters an intimate relationship to the soul, unique to each individual.
