Spirituality and Transformation

Bruno & Louise Hubers’ approach to astrology and psychology was always imbued with a deep spirituality, coming from their grounding in the Arcane School and in Roberto Assagioli’s psychosynthesis. Their thinking on those aspects of the chart more closely related to spiritual development first appeared in a third German volume of Lebens Uhr (Life Clock) 1985. This was adopted, translated and published in English by Samuel Weiser 1990 under the title Astrology and the Spiritual Path.

The Hubers’ thinking moved on with an extension of the original Lebens Uhr 3 into a new volume Transformationen (Transformation) in 1996.

All these changes were then incorporated in a new English volume Transformation: Astrology as a Spiritual Path published by HopeWell in 2008.

The fundamental importance of Transformation for the Hubers is illustrated by this quote from the book.

“The idea of evolution is… based on a fundamental psychological concept that views a man or woman holistically – as a human being linked both to the immediate environment and to the universe – and as a spiritual entity (individual) who can relate freely and consciously to either.

Taking the idea a stage further, it is postulated that an evolutionary plan runs throughout creation, and that the human soul or spirit has descended into matter from pure, celestial consciousness for the
purpose of manifesting in physical form. But the time eventually comes to return to source. The journey back starts with a total inner reversal produced by a sense of the nullity and transience of physical life. Now it is clear, on looking at the spiritual development of individuals, that Age Progression has to do with this journey back. It marks the various stages of evolution in the rhythmic course of life. This law of development is active throughout nature and produces a steady unfolding of the self as it germinates, ripens and dies.”
