A depth psychologist, wilderness guide and agent of cultural evolution offers guidance through the five phases of the descent to soul for individuals looking to journey down a path of individual awakening and cultural regeneration to their soul’s purpose. Original.

"As the earth faces ecological destruction and climate change, the author draws upon modern psychology and indigenous shamanism to outline a path toward personal awakening, cultural regeneration, and finding one's individual soul purpose"--

With the Earth and so many of its people, species, and ecosystems in crisis, a renowned author outlines a path toward individual awakening and cultural regeneration

As cosmologist Brian Thomas Swimme writes, Bill Plotkin lives &;in the creative universe as articulated by quantum physics, indigenous traditions, and evolutionary cosmology.&; While this might sound esoteric, Plotkin is anything but. He has devoted his life to guiding individuals to discover their soul&;s purpose &; their unique niche in the Earth community. Here, in a culmination of his life&;s work, Plotkin describes for the first time the five phases of the descent to soul. Stories of those who have undertaken the journey illuminate the process, which includes the dissolution of earlier identity, the revelation of destiny or mythopoetic identity, and the subsequent metamorphosis of the ego into that of an initiated adult. Readers need not be familiar with Plotkin&;s previous works to benefit from this revolutionary, phase-by-phase guidance through the lost journey of soul initiation, a journey that can transform individuals and cultures &; and, ultimately, our planet.
