Astrology and the Rising of Kundalini: The Transformative Power of Saturn, Chiron, and Uranus

Praise for Astrology and the Rising of Kundalini: The Transformative Power of Saturn, Chiron, and Uranus

"Astrology and the Rising of Kundalini is filled with fascinating ideas; it offers a treasure chest of tools for breaking up the energy blockages that keep us from our true nature as beings of light. All too often books on spiritual transformation perpetuate the myth that the biological and erotic energies of the body are somehow separate from the soul. Clow heals this rift and not only helps bring astrology into the field of energy medicine where it belongs but also restores eros to its rightful place as a vital and healthy part of the divinity we call self."
— Michael Talbot, author of The Holographic Universe

"Astrology and the Rising of Kundalini shows that when we systematically work with our life energy and the predictable cycles of time to negotiate midlife, it becomes what nature intended: not a crisis, but a power surge. Such an insight is more than an intellectual exercise; it’s essential for healthy development--the only way we can live up to our full potential. In this groundbreaking book, Barbara Hand Clow offers readers the insights, the timing, and the tools for making the passage safely, powerfully, gracefully."
— Steven McFadden, astrologer and author of Profiles in Wisdom

"Astrology and the Rising of Kundalini is an extremely important book for all who wish to turn their potentially turbulent midlife transitions into opportunities for conscious maturation and productivity. Barbara Hand Clow’s keen insight not only clarifies key passages in our personal lives, clearly defining the relationship between astrology and real-life events, she also provides vital insights into the newly developing paradigm for a healthy global future."
— Nicki Scully, author of Planetary Healing and Power Animal Meditations

"Barbara Hand Clow has identified the hidden key to evolution: the rise of suprasexual energy experienced as the passion to express our full potential self through joining in love with others to create. She gives us practical guidelines to go through our personal midlife crisis to become co-creative humans, a global species at the next stage of our evolution."
— Barbara Marx Hubbard, author of The Evolutionary Journey

"This exciting new book contains the vision of a new human state whose ‘primary goal will be the complete evolution of consciousness.’ The erotic and cosmic qualities of shamanic, astro-mythic, and Goddess cultures is brought into the now of Western left-brain (technological societies) to heal, magnify, and balance us if we, as men and women, can unify our goals."
— Rowena Pattee Kryder, Ph.D., author of the Gaia Matrix Oracle and founder of the Creative Harmonics

"Barbara Hand Clow helpfully provides Cliffs Notes for the midlife crisis and much, much more. This is must reading for anyone feeling midlife dissatisfaction. Her ideas can help avoid costly and unnecessary mistakes often caused by misinterpretation of a natural process of evolution. She heals by explaining deeper reasons."
— Spirit of Change

"Barbara Hand Clow’s years of experience as an astrological counselor and her understanding of subtle cosmic energies have led her to draw some striking conclusions regarding the midlife phenomenon. The message in Astrology and the Rising of Kundalini is that we can move through these critical points with grace rather than confusion."

". . . completely unravels the effects of mid-life crisis . . . puts astronomy in a new light, poses interesting questions about our relationship to the rest of the universe, and provides interesting postulations about the transformations that occur in humans."

"Barbara Hand Clow presents a way to make midlife crisis both meaningful and more manageable. Her descriptions of kundalini rising are lovely and compelling. She offers a strong argument for this spiritual emergence as a universal experience, not an achievement of the very few."
— Peggy Payne, author of the kundalini novel Cobalt Blue

"Finally! A book that makes spiritual sense out of life’s passages and does so not only on a personal level but a cosmic level as well."
— Rosemary Ellen Guiley, author of Harper’s Encyclopedia of Mystical and Paranormal Experience
