In this intriguing exploration of human relationship patterns,
Clare Martin compares two hitherto unrelated approaches, to see
what, if anything, they can offer each other. Astrology has a rich
historical, philosophical, and cultural background. Its categories
are archetypal and its language is mythic, symbolic and
imaginative. Personality theory is an extension of the medical
model pioneered by Freud. Based on extensive empirical research and
clinical practice, its approach is secular, rational and causal,
and its language is analytical. Astrology and personality theory
share the recognition that all human experience takes place in the
context of relationship, between subject and object, self and
other, internal and external, at both conscious and unconscious
levels. We find ourselves in a world of duality and polarity,
caught between opposites. Stories and story-telling weave these two
approaches together and expand our understanding of human nature,
with all its paradoxes and complexities. Clare uses a variety of
well-known stories with relationship themes at their core - from
enduring myths, books and films - to breathe life into the
paradoxical themes of each axis in the birth chart, and each
character style in personality theory. The stories we are drawn to
- or repelled by - tell us more about ourselves. Recognising the
stories in our own birth charts generates increased insight,
psychic integration, flexibility, and greater acceptance of
ourselves and others. Suitable for anyone interested in the way we
develop, and for astrologers of all levels or none at all.
