The book Psychodynamics and Astrology offers a bridge between two symbolic systems: astrology and Jungian analytical psychology. Claudio Mele and Lianella Livaldi Laun. Proposes a non-deterministic approach to astrology, valuing it as a symbolic tool within the therapeutic process.
The first part introduces astrology’s basic elements — signs, planets, houses, and aspects — explaining their meanings in light of psychodynamics and archetypal psychology. Rather than predicting fate, astrology is seen as reflecting unconscious patterns, psychic wounds, and latent potentials.
The second part presents two clinical case studies where astrology complements psychoanalytic work with dreams, symptoms, and transits. The interaction between dream images and planetary archetypes reveals deeper layers of the psyche and supports more precise therapeutic interventions.
The conclusion emphasizes the natal chart as a symbolic map — a mirror of the soul — and encourages a mature dialogue between astrology and deep psychology.
