Overview

Archetypal Coaching offers a transformative approach to personal growth, blending ancient Greek astrological foundations and dream work with modern coaching techniques, somatic awareness, and Jungian active imagination. Astrological archetypes illuminate the roots of struggles and highlight potential resources, while dreams act as a focused lens, bringing attention to issues that require immediate exploration. The approach explored within this book emphasizes interactive dialogue with archetypes and symbols, using embodied imagination and somatic awareness to guide clients in creating a personal symbol that embodies their inner process and potential, echoing Jung’s concept of the transcendent function. Supported by six in-depth case studies and numerous examples, the author outlines a holistic framework for integrating astrology and dream work into coaching, emphasizing personal growth and treating archetypes as dynamic tools for creativity and self-discovery. This book will appeal to established coaches, counselors, and therapists interested in integrating archetypal work into their practice, as well as students of Jungian psychology, coaching, art therapy, astrology, and related fields.

“This book pioneers a new spiritual approach to coaching informed by transpersonal theory, depth psychology, and the wisdom of astrology. Alba Carod shows that the interpretation of dreams coupled with study of astrological symbolism creates meaningful emotional resonances for her clients. Her luminous paintings of dream images enhance the text and demonstrate the process of creative dialogue with dreams. Alba’s work unites intuition, meditation, and active imagination with practical strategies for change.” Greg Bogart, PhD, author of Dreamwork and Self-Healing “Carod takes transpersonal coaching to a whole new level through creatively integrating astrology, dreamwork and active imagination. Carod’s seminal ideas, helpful examples, and illustrative case stories show the harmonious blending and collaboration of astrology and dreamwork to create an impactful and cohesive approach in transpersonal coaching. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to my transpersonal coaching students and supervisees.” Jevon Dängeli – transpersonal coach and educator at Alef Trust
