from Inspired Evolution with Amrit Sandhu 🙏🏻

🔥✨ 2026 is an UNPRECEDENTED MOMENT in Our History.The one and only - Harvard philosopher and legendary astrological scholar Richard Tarnas — author of Cosmos and Psyche — reveals why we are living through a once-in-a-civilisation liminal moment. After 50 years of groundbreaking research that began with psychedelics and led him to astrology, Tarnas makes the case that the universe is not dead matter — it is alive, intelligent, and communicating with us through planetary archetypes. He warns that humanity is facing a global crisis of meaning, but within that crisis lies the seed of our greatest transformation. You may be wondering - how is this cosmic shift affecting your life specifically? Because while these transits affect the collective, they activate each individual chart in completely unique ways...🪐 BOOK YOUR PERSONAL 1-1 ASTROLOGY READINGExplore how this April 2026 shift and your unique soul’s plan are showing up in your natal chart with Amrit — and how to work with these archetypical energies consciously and practically right now.👉 BOOK YOUR 1–1 READING:https://amritsandhu.com/reading___🔥🫂 JOIN STEVE JUDD LIVE for a SPECIAL AIRES ACTIVATION LIVE in THE CIRCLE!This month, Steve Judd is joining us LIVE inside the Inspired Evolution Community Circle for a special Aries Activation session.Inside The Circle you can:• Ask your questions directly• Receive personal insights into your chart and spiritual path• Participate in monthly masterclasses with world-class guests• Join a conscious community navigating these shifts togetherMembers also gather weekly for:• Deep-dive discussions• Meditation and breathwork• Conscious conversation and friendshipMany of our guests from the podcast return to offer exclusive masterclasses and Q&As for the community.This is where the conversations turn into REAL connection.👉 JOIN THE COMMUNITY CIRCLE:https://inspiredevolution.com/circle___🎬 IN THIS EPISODERichard Tarnas, the visionary author of Cosmos and Psyche, invites you on a profound journey from the cliffs of Esalen to the heart of an "ensouled universe". In this captivating dialogue, Tarnas recounts his transformative decade at the Esalen Institute, where he was mentored by psychedelic pioneer Stanislav Grof and helped shape the human potential movement. He reveals the breakthrough bridging depth psychology and the stars: the discovery that planetary movements correlate consistently with the "archetypal fields" of human experience. Tarnas challenges the dismissal of astrology as the "gold standard of superstition," offering instead an "archetypally predictive" lens on our lives. From humanity's "liminal" crisis of meaning to the current renaissance of astrology, he explores our role as participants in an intelligent, cosmic music. This is an essential exploration for seekers bridging ancient wisdom with the modern world.🎬 EPISODE CHAPTERS:00:00 The Esalen Era and Wisdom Temples02:14 Meeting Grof: The Psychedelic Frontier 04:47 The Breakthrough: Linking Stars and Soul10:48 Overcoming the "Gold Standard of Superstition"16:15 Recovering an Ensouled Universe23:44 The 30-Year Journey to Cosmos and Psyche31:02 Defining Archetypes: Beyond Jung and Plato39:53 The Cosmos as a Living Musical Score48:12 Astrology’s Modern Renaissance54:30 Navigating the Liminal Crisis of Meaning01:02:18 Humanity as Participants in Cosmic Evolution 01:08:45 Reflecting on a Lifetime of Visionary Work👀 FIND ROBERT ONLINE✦ Website: http://cosmosandpsyche.com___🪐 BOOK YOUR PERSONAL 1-1 ASTROLOGY READINGExplore how this April 2026 shift and your unique soul’s plan are showing up in your natal chart with Amrit — and how to work with these archetypical energies consciously and practically right now.👉 BOOK YOUR 1–1 READING:https://amritsandhu.com/reading___👉 JOIN THE COMMUNITY CIRCLE:https://inspiredevolution.com/circleSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/inspiredevolution.
