In The Heavens Declare, author and astrologer Alice O. Howell proclaims, “We are not confronting the end of the world, but the end of the Age of Pisces!” Integrating two major disciplines of astrology and Jungian depth psychology, Howell’s latest title reveals the fascinating connection between astrology and the evolution of the Collective Unconscious, C.G. Jung’s theory that the unconscious mind is shared by all humans and contains archetypes and universal mental predispositions not grounded in physical experience. Written in the form of thought-provoking letters to her analyst friend, Howell’s natural wit and charm compliment the text. Exploring the synchronicity between myth, history, religion, and the evolution of humankind over the past five astrological ages—spanning some 12,000 years—she presents the current tasks and the potential traps humanity now faces. Howell also provides her audience with a deeper understanding and method of healing the individual psyche. She illustrates that an astrologer serves as a type of psychologist who analyzes the position of the stars and planets within an individual’s astrological chart for the purpose of understanding his or her psychological makeup, the personal challenges he or she may face, and the possible solutions to overcoming those obstacles.

A Walk through the Eons,
By
This review is from: The Heavens Declare: Astrological Ages and the Evolution of Consciousness (Paperback)
For anyone wanting to take a walk through the eons and comprehend how each eon has left its mark on human development, "The Heavens Declare" is a treasure trove. It is not often that a book of this breadth and scope comes along. Nor do we often get authors who have absorbed the shaping realities of both depth psychlogy and astrology as completely as has Howell. As we move from Pisces to Aquarius, this book will both enlighten such a cosmic transition, as well as make the trauma of such an advance more bearable. "The Heavens Declare" is tinged with both understanding of the past and a hope-filled vision for the future.

An Amazing Book,
By
This review is from: The Heavens Declare: Astrological Ages and the Evolution of Consciousness (Paperback)
Those who appreciate Jung's approach to psychology, and have often wondered what all that astrology business was about, are going to really enjoy this book. This is truly an amazing book, and Alice O. Howell delivers a tremendous amount of information in a very readable format. Part One of the book gives an overview of astrological concepts as they relate to psychological processess. Part Two traces the development of the human psyche through the more "recent" astrological ages, and gives the reader some food for thought regarding the coming Aquarian Age.

This review is from: The Heavens Declare: Astrological Ages and the Evolution of Consciousness (Paperback)
Alice O. Howell's The Heavens Are Telling is timely and desperately needed in order for us to try to understand today's troubling times in a much larger context. Her writing is deceptively simple--writing to a friend. But it's the kind of writing possible only when one so fully understands the topic that complex concepts can be spoken of with great simplicity. She makes it so understandable. However, almost any sentence, when deeply pondered, is almost a world of information in itself. Alice O. Howell offers a depth and clarity that are rare, and that have been most helpful to me in my own work as a Jungian analyst.
