Addressing the pervasive longing for so this means and fulfillment in this time of problems, Aspect and the Individual Soul presents a visionary ecopsychology of real human development that reveals how completely and creatively we can mature when spirit and wild aspect guide us. Depth psychologist and wilderness guide Invoice Plotkin presents a model for a real human life time rooted in the cycles and characteristics of the natural world, a blueprint for individual development that in the end yields a strategy for cultural transformation. With evocative words and personal tales, including those of elders Thomas Berry and Joanna Macy, this booklet defines eight phases of real human life - Innocent, Explorer, Thespian, Wanderer, Soul Apprentice, Artisan, Master, and Sage - and details the problems and great things about each. Plotkin offers a means of progressing from our current egocentric, aggressively competitive, consumer contemporary society to the ecocentric, soul-based the one that is ecological, cooperative, and compassionate. At once a primer on real human development and a manifesto for change, Aspect and the Individual Soul fashions a template for a more mature, rewarding, and purposeful life - and an improved world.
