A Story That Teaches People How To Be Human

Loralee Scaife is an astrologer and educator who weaves astrology, mythology, and Jungian psychology to provide a rich symbolic map of the psyche. Her studies began in 1978 in Canada where she cultivated her skills as a consultant and teacher of astrology. Since then she’s expanded her knowledge through extensive studies covering psychology, philosophy, mythology, science, history, and current affairs.

Loralee has created an incredible 8-part video series on the Lord of the Rings as the guiding myth for our time. The series goes very deep into the mythology, symbolism and history of Lord of the Rings, and its relevance for navigating this time of collective transition.

I loved diving into Loralee’s astrological and archetypal perspective on where we are now, and what to do about it. In this fascinating conversation, we cover:

• How Loralee was dragged “kicking and screaming” into astrology in the 1970s;

• Why, from an astrological and mythic point of view, we are collectively in “the Battle at the Black Gate” from 2020 to 2025;

• The “Promethean spirit” that is rising up in humanity as the life force is under threat;

• How to look at world events through Jungian dream analysis – and why that approach is so useful;

• The connection between the imaginal realm, the living world and the divine;

• Evil as a disembodied, anti-life force – and the significance of the Ring as a symbol of evil;

• The “Orcafication” of humanity – and why working with the personal shadow is necessary for avoiding that fate;

• Reclaiming our inner Hobbit – the innocent, divine child part of us – as essential for our survival;

• And much more!
