About the book

"Prometheus the awakener is considered by many to be one of the finest astrological essays ever written. It has also been much praised by depth psychologists for its precise linking of an archetypal perspective in biography and history to the macrocosm of planetary movements, providing an invaluable new bridge between astrology and psychology.Widely referred to in other astrological writings, earlier partial versions of the essay have been published in numerous journals in both Europe and the U.S. Spring offers here the full monograph in a single volume, including a new preface as well as an afterword." --Publisher description.

Subjects: Miscellanea, Prometheus (Greek deity), Astrology and psychology, Archetype (Psychology), Astrology and mythology, Philosophy
