Describes the transformational journey to enlightenment and awareness using the tarot, astrology, the Qabalah, the alchemy of transformation, and analytical psychology.
This was the first metaphysical book I read in the late 80's. It introduced me to the power of the imagination, journeying to other 'realms' and meeting with my Guide- an experience that has been the most life changing event of my life. His writing is a bit dogmatic. Ed was an astrologer and a Jungian Analyst. He had very particular beliefs and he shared them. What is most striking about his contribution is that he offers others a path to find out their own truth. So, if you get hung-up on Ed's truths about reality, Guides and the afterworld then you should simply follow his lead and find your own answers. Thats the best a teacher can do. For myself, I treat this book with great reverence despite it's 'flaws'. I'm old enough to know that I don't have to buy everything a teacher is teaching in order to learn and prosper from the learning. Enjoy this most powerful calling to connect with that part of your being that will change your life for the better.
