“Cyclic knowledge is mind — knowledge — however vast and encompassing the mind may be. It is structural knowledge. It is only one mode of knowing; but this mode is all-important in situations where disorder, confusion, and emotional biases prevail. It does not take the place of direct experience, whether at the personal or the spiritual level; but it enables the experiencer to place his experience in a frame of reference which reveals their eonic significance — i.e. the function they occupy within the entire life-span.”

“From a process-oriented point of view, we can best understand the birth-chart—the map of the heavens drawn for the exact time and place of a person's first breath—if we picture it as a stop-motion snapshot of a moment in the flow of the life of the cosmos. It is, as it were, a slice of celestial space-time as seen from planet Earth. The whole past of celestial motion is behind and implied in the particular planetary, zodiacal, house and aspect pattern appearing at the moment of our birth. And implied in both its totality and each of its parts is dynamic momentum, that is, an inexorable continuation of motion toward a future unfoldment. A birth-chart is thus a celestial statement of where the universe 'is', and therefore what it needs next, at the moment of our birth.”

“La vita è un appuntamento, lo so di dire una banalità Monsieur, solo che noi non sappiamo mai il quando, il chi, il come, il dove. E allora uno pensa: se avessi detto questo invece di quello, o quello invece di questo, se mi fossi alzato tardi invece che presto, o presto invece che tardi, oggi sarei impercettibilmente differente, e forse tutto il mondo sarebbe impercettibilmente differente. O sarebbe lo stesso e io non potrei saperlo.”
