About
Richard Tarnas is a cultural historian, psychologist, and author known for works linking the history of ideas, psyche, and cosmology. He gained wide recognition with The Passion of the Western Mind, a critical survey of the intellectual currents that shaped the Western worldview, and with Cosmos and Psyche, a study proposing correspondences between historical events and astrological patterns.
He taught at the California Institute of Integral Studies, where he founded and directed the graduate program in Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness, integrating philosophical, psychological, and transpersonal perspectives. His output includes essays on LSD and psychotherapy, archetypal interpretations of the planets, and reflections on modern cultural and spiritual transformation.
Tarnas’s work influenced both academic circles in consciousness studies and audiences interested in integrative approaches to history and astrology, contributing to debates about cultural meaning, planetary symbolism, and a possible reassessment of the role of the collective imagination in contemporary history.
